John Chandler Griffin
Mr. Lincoln and His War

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: From his birth to a destitute family in 1809 to his assassination while serving as president of the United States of America in 1865, Abraham Lincoln`s intriguing life is illustrated in this pictorial biography. While many of his actions, including his decision to declare war on the South, are still the subject of debate, Lincoln had an exceptional influence on the history of the United States. Along with propaganda cartoons and personal diary excerpts, this definitive book shares Lincoln`s life through more than three hundred rare and illuminating pictures, while raising questions about such controversial subjects as his sexuality and the legitimacy of his birth. The author supplies the evidence and invites his readers to draw their own conclusions. In addition to examining Lincoln`s enigmatic private life, author John Chandler Griffin illustrates the wide range of his affiliations and supporters. An extremely rare snapshot of the South Carolina Secession Convention, an image… [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: Thomas B. Allen’s expertise in military history and strategy is combined with Roger MacBride Allen’s knowledge of technology to reveal a lesser-known yet fascinating side of the 16th president of the United States.

Adam Braver
Mr. Lincoln`s Wars : A Novel in Thirteen Stories

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Amazon.comAdam Braver`s debut novel, Mr. Lincoln`s Wars , is a faithful execution of a bright idea. Thirteen stories with various narrators give us perspectives on Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War. We learn Mary Todd Lincoln`s exhaustion and grief: `You`re a pox, Abraham Lincoln, you bring tragedy to everything you touch. Kill all of the boys in this country, as well as your own.` We hear from Zack Hargrove, the meanest, toughest Union soldier there was. We read an imaginary letter from a war widow to Mr. Lincoln, gloating over the death of her abusive husband. To all of these stories, Braver brings a boldly anachronistic writing style. His people speak contemporary language, and what`s more, they feel contemporary (or at least post-Freudian) feelings. As Braver has it, the death of Lincoln`s son defined and drove the President as much as the fight for abolition. The wildly violent Zack Hargrove had a dad who beat him, and John Wilkes Booth had father issues, too. Braver is… [detailed...]

Luis Alberto Urrea says, `No, NOT magical realism. It`s simply how kids grow up in Mexico. Especially if you`re a boy.` And the part about Mr. Mendoza is really true: He brandishes his magical paintbrush everywhere, painting graffiti to singe the hearts and souls of trouble-making boys (especially if he catches a boy peeping at the girls bathing in the river). He`ll steal the villain`s pants and paint PERVERT on his naked buttocks.

Dai Sijie
Mr. Muo`s Travelling Couch

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Having enchanted readers on two continents with Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress, Dai Sijie now produces a rapturous and uproarious collision of East and West, a novel about the dream of love and the love of dreams. Fresh from 11 years in Paris studying Freud, bookish Mr. Muo returns to China to spread the gospel of psychoanalysis. His secret purpose is to free his college sweetheart from prison. To do so he has to get on the good side of the bloodthirsty Judge Di, and to accomplish that he must provide the judge with a virgin maiden. This may prove difficult in a China that has embraced western sexual mores along with capitalism–especially since Muo, while indisputably a romantic, is no ladies’ man. Tender, laugh-out-loud funny, and unexpectedly wise, Mr. Muo’s Travelling Couch introduces a hero as endearingly inept as Inspector Clouseau and as valiant as Don Quixote. [detailed...]

To distinguish his own abode, he decides to plant a little pine tree in front, but his neighbors like that idea so much, they do it, too. Even when he plants a bush next to his tree, everyone follows suit. Finally, Mr. Pine paints his house purple--and to his delight, no one else wants a purple house. His neighbors are inspired, however, to paint their own houses all different colors, their first break with conformity. (``Yellow for me,` said Mrs. Green. `Green for me,` said Mrs. Brown.`) First published in 1965 and out of print until recently, Leonard Kessler`s Mr. Pine`s Purple House --a story of the triumph of individualism--has crept into the hearts of thousands of readers for decades. Simple but memorable line drawings (splashed with purple), large type, and airy design combine… [detailed...]

A founding member of the Byrds, one of the `60s` most influential groups, Gene Clark pioneered several important genres, from folk-rock and psychedelic to country-rock. His leadership within the Byrds and his subsequent acclaim as both a solo artist and member of Dillard and Clark mark Clark as one of rock music`s key innovators and visionaries. Yet his troubled life hampered his career at critical junctures, inhibiting what should have been one of popular music`s greatest contributors. While revered by a new generation, his legacy remains clouded. Told through the personal recollections, insights, andreflections of those closest to Gene Clark throughout his life and career, Mr. Tambourine Man offers a rare glimpse into one of America`s greatest groups, the Byrds.
