The Lady in the Watch

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Dennis Fleetwood appeared in court effectively and frequently. Time and time again the lawyer for the other side was John Eldridge. During a meeting in John`s office Dennis noticed a picture of a woman he thought he recognized. It was John`s mother, a mother whom John never knew. She, strangely, had placed him in a boarding school in Great Britain. Later Dennis discovered that the woman`s picture was in an antique watch that had been hidden in his briefcase during his flight from Harvard to California. The discovery of that watch, and Dennis` naive attempt to use the law to help John Eldridge find his mother, led Dennis down a path that threatened, not only his career, but his life. He was no match for the violent responses that resulted from that guileless attempt to help John. [detailed...]

Description: The final thrilling chapter in the Tristan and Isolde trilogy Isolde, heir to the throne of the queens, is now a sovereign in her own right. With the glories of the throne comes the responsibility of a queen, and Isolde knows she must return to her beloved Western Isle. She can no longer tolerate her marriage to King Mark of Cornwall, a marriage she has accepted for years to save her country from the threat of war—and to be near her only love, Mark’s nephew, Tristan of Lyonesse. And so she leaves Cornwall and comes home to Ireland, where her lords face a growing threat from the warlike Picti, who live in the barren highlands to the north of England. The Picti have a bold new king, Darath, who is determined to take the riches of Ireland for his own people, whether by war or by marriage with Isolde. Isolde gathers her armies to confront the Picti while facing a violent conflict with King Mark, who vows he will not let a prize like Isolde, and Ireland,… [detailed...]

Anton Chekhov
The Lady with the Little Dog and Other Stories, 1896-1904

2002 y.
Publisher: Penguin Books Ltd.
Description: In the final years of his life, Chekhov had reached the height of his powers as a dramatist, and also produced some of the stories that rank among his masterpieces. The poignant `The Lady with the Little Dog` and `About Love` examine the nature of love outside of marriage - its romantic idealism and the fear of disillusionment. And in stories such as `Peasants`, `The House with the Mezzanine` and `My Life` Chekhov paints a vivid picture of the conditions of the poor and of their powerlessness in the face of exploitation and hardship. With the works collected here, Chekhov moved away from the realism of his earlier tales - developing a broader range of characters and subject matter, while forging the spare minimalist style that would inspire such modern short-story writers as Hemingway and Faulkner.

Leonid Latynin
The Lair

2007 y.
Publisher: Glas
Description: Leonid Latynin was born in a small town on the Volga and raised by his old grandmother on old religious books and Russian folklore. Since childhood he has been fascinated with pre-Christian Russian culture, which found expression in his highly original novels. Latynin was trained as a philologist and has become an expert in pre-Christian Russian culture and Russian icons. Both of these interests are apparent in his fiction. The work of Leonid Latynin can hardly be classed with any existing literary trends or movements. Asked in an interview whether he had been associated with the literary underground back in Soviet times Latynin said that he existed on its margins, living alone like a hermit. He has several collections of poetry to his name, the novel `The Face-maker and the Muse`, and the novel `The Russian Truth` in four books. `Sleeper at Harvest Time` (Book One of the tetralogy) was published in French by Flammarion, and in English by Zephyr Press. … [detailed...]

Cherith Baldry
The Lake of Darkness (Eaglesmount, 3)

2004 y.
Publisher: Mondo Publishing
Description: Grade 3-5–The third book in this `Redwall`-like series (Philomel) has half the detail, half the dialect, and maybe half the heart of those titles. Even the pen-and-ink illustrations seem familiar. A brave young pine marten named Vair leads a ragtag army of vixens, wildcats, squirrels, and other forest denizens against the evil Lord Owl, who has declared himself High King and heir to the eagles. Evidently in books one and two, Vair fulfilled several parts of a prophecy and he`s really the High King, etc. Only he is acting weird because of a cursed dagger he removed from a would-be assassin, and he`s turning against all of his friends and allies. There`s plenty of action, a couple of good descriptions of meals, and a few touches of humor and emotion, but Baldry is no Brian Jacques. Buy this title if you have the first two books and a hungry audience of young animal-fantasy fans who aren`t ready for Redwall. [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionWelcome to the resort town of Weneshkeen, nestled along Michigan’s Gold Coast, where the sapphire-blue Lake Meenigeesis and the winding Oh-John-Ninny River lie within spitting distance of Lake Michigan. This once-quaint village–home of the yearly Sumac Days festival, a legendary bootlegger’s mansion, and excellent locally made sausage, cherry pie, and fudge–has become a complex melting pot. There are townies and old-timers who still inhabit the simpler cottages along the shore, ritzy summer folk who’ve bought up the best lakefront and built view-blocking estates, migrant cherry pickers and wily river guides, there are even a few Ojibwe Indians still around. It is the summer of 2001, and one of these “original people,” Roger Drinkwater, a ’Nam vet and lifelong resident, is plotting extra-legal revenge against the “idiot boy” jet-skiers polluting his beloved lake, even as he’s pursuing Janey… [detailed...]

Description: The Land System Of The New England Colonies - By Melville Egleston - PREFATORY NOTE. - The following monograph was originally printed in the year 1880. Of the copies then issued some found their way at once into the larger public libraries, while others were placed in the hands of persons believed to be interested in the subject treated of. The number of these copies, however, all told, was quite small, and it was suggested some time ago by the cditor of this series of Johns Hopkins University Studies that the results of the writers investi- gations were not accessible to many to whom they might be useful, and that they were of sufficient interest to warrant their publication in the series named. The opportunity courteously obered by him of reaching in this manner a greater number of persons interested iu studies of the kind was gladly accepted, and the treatise is now reprinted, without any change whatever from the original form. . The author has deemed it important to make this… [detailed...]

Description: Is private ownership an inviolate right that individuals can wield as they see fit? Or is it better understood in more collective terms, as an institution that communities reshape over time to promote evolving goals? What should it mean to be a private landowner in an age of sprawling growth and declining biological diversity?. These provocative questions lie at the heart of this perceptive and wide-ranging new book by legal scholar and conservationist Eric Freyfogle. Bringing together insights fromhistory, law, philosophy, and ecology, Freyfogle undertakes a fascinating inquiry into the ownership of nature, leading us behind publicized and contentious disputes over open-space regulation, wetlands protection, and wildlife habitat to reveal the foundations of and changing ideas about private ownership in America. Drawing upon ideas from Thomas Jefferson, Henry George, and Aldo Leopold and interweaving engaging accounts of actual disputes over land-use issues, Freyfogle develops… [detailed...]
