The Complete Illustrated Lewis Carroll

2006 г.
Издатель: Wordsworth Editions Limited

Описание: All of Lewis Carroll`s stories, verses, puzzles, acrostics, `phantasmagoria` and other comic writings illustrated by John Tenniel. Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson) is famed for his magical stories, Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, here illustrated throughout the inner pages by Sir John Tenniel`s much loved drawings. However, inspired by the insatiable Victorian appetite for party games, tricks and conundrums, this eccentric and polymathical Englishman also wrote many other works of a humorous, witty, whimsical and nonsensical nature such as the mock-heroic nonsense verse The Hunting of the Snark, as well as dozens of other verses, stories, acrostics and puzzles, all of which are included in this omnibus volume. Oxford scholar, Church of England Deacon, University Lecturer in Mathematics and Logic, academic author of learned theses, gifted pioneer of portrait photography, colourful writer of imaginative genius and yet a shy and pedantic man, Lewis Carroll… [подробнее...]

A. A. Milne
The Complete Tales and Poems of Winnie-the-Pooh/WTP

2001 г.
Издатель: Dutton Juvenile

Описание: Seventy-five years ago, that most beloved of `silly old bears,` Winnie-the-Pooh, came down the stairs, `bump, bump, bump,` on the back of his head, behind Christopher Robin. And now, after generations of children have grown up on stories about Pooh`s adventures with his forest friends, the four all-time children`s classics from A.A. Milne and Ernest H. Shepard have been collected in one hefty, handsome volume for another multitude of generations to enjoy. Gathered together are the poems and tales that celebrate heffalumps, Eeyore`s birthday, the unbouncing of Tigger, Disobedience, Buckingham Palace, and sneezles. The stories about Pooh getting stuck in Rabbit`s doorway, Piglet doing a `Very Grand Thing,` and Eeyore losing a tail (and Pooh finding one) are timeless favorites for children--and grownups--of all ages. Four original classics are here, in all their glory: Winnie-the-Pooh, The House at Pooh Corner, When We Were Very Young, and Now We Are Six. This beautiful edition features… [подробнее...]

The Encyclopedia Of Wood: A Tree-By-Tree Guide To The World`s Most Versatile Resource

2005 г.
Издатель: Facts on File

Описание: Anyone who likes to tramp through the woods, reads the Arbor Day Foundation newsletter, or shops at home-and-garden centers can probably identify a fair number of common trees: maples, oaks, pines, and the like. Some folks can even tell a red maple from a sugar maple, a black oak from a pin oak, and a southern yellow pine from a Norway pine. However, there`s a tremendous difference between identifying a living tree and identifying a piece of wood. Living trees offer lots of helpful hints: bark color, bark texture, foliage, seedpods, height, and overall shape. Seasoned, board-cut pieces of wood offer none of these hints, and that`s why this specialized identification guide is so useful. Thirty pages of introductory material, richly enhanced with outstanding maps, photos, and illustrations, explain tree anatomy, tree growth, wood grain, logging practices, conservation, and the various processes for seasoning and preservation of wood. This material is well written and beautifully… [подробнее...]
