The Very Persistent Gappers of Frip

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Three families live in the seaside village of Frip — the Romos, the Ronsens, and a little girl named Capable and her widowed father. The townspeople of Frip make their living raising goats, but they must fight off a daily invasion of gappers, bright orange, many-eyed creatures that cover goats and stop them from giving milk. When the gappers target Capable`s goats, the Romos and the Ronsens turn their backs on the gapper-ridden Capable. What will Capable do about her gapper plague? An imaginative tale by acclaimed author George Saunders accented with haunting illustrations by award-winning illustrator Lane Smith, The Very Persistent Gappers of Frip is an adult story for children, a children`s story for adults, an oceanside fable for the landlocked, a fish story for loaves, and a fable about the true meaning of community.

Lynn Kurland
The Very Thought of You

2001 y.
Publisher: Berkley
Description: Wealthy beyond measure but disillusioned and unfulfilled by his years as a corporate raider, Alex Smith definitely needs a change of scene. What he gets, however, is a change of time when an old pirate map and a gate to the past suddenly land him in the forests of medieval England at the feet of a strangely lovely armor-clad knightAa knight who eventually not only abducts him but turns out to be a woman. Lively, often funny, but brutally realistic, this well-written story pairs a defiant woman determined to defend her lands at all costs with a reluctant out-of-time hero who rises to the occasion, then gives them a cause to fight for and a love to live for and lets their actions drive the plot. Memorable, complex characters and a clean, fast-paced, yet descriptive writing style recommend this story, which has links to Kurland`s A Dance Through Time (Jove, 1996). Kurland won a Rita for Stardust of Yesterday (Jove, 1996) and lives in the Pacific Northwest. [detailed...]

The Very Worst Road: Travellers` Accounts of Crossing Alabama`s Old Creek Indian Territory, 1820-1847 (Alabama Fire Ant)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The Very Worst Road contains sixteen contemporary accounts by travelers who reached Alabama along what was known as the “Old Federal Road,” more a network of paths than a single road, that ran from Columbus and points south in Georgia for more or less due west into central Alabama and to where the confluence of the Tallapoosa and Coosa Rivers forms the Alabama River. These accounts deal candidly with the rather remarkable array of impediments that faced travelers in Alabama in its first decades as a state, and they describe with wonder, interest, and, frequently with some disgust, the road, the inns, the travelling companions, and the few and raw communities they encountered as they made their way, often with difficulty, through what seemed to many of them uncharted wilderness. The Very Worst Road was originally published by the Historic Chattahoochee Commission in 1998. Accounts: Adam Hodgson, March 1820 Auguste Levasseur, April 1825 Bernard, Duke of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenbach,… [detailed...]

It emphasizes the automation and the loss of direct human relations within the industrial arts as well as social repercussions of capitalistic industry.Download DescriptionIt would also be extremely difficult to make allowance for this deduction, since much of it is not recognised as such by the men in charge and does not appear on their books under any special descriptive heading. In one way and another, and for divers and various reasons, the net production of goods serviceable for human use falls considerably short of the gross output, and the gross output is always short of the productive capacity of the available plant and man power.

The Victorian Fern Craze (Shire Library)

2010 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Fern Fever (or Pteridomania, to give it its official name), hit Britain between 1837 and 1914 and peaked between 1840 and 1890. Although in previous centuries ferns played an important role in customs and folklore, it was only in this period that they were coveted for aesthetic reasons and that man`s passion for them reached its zenith. The craze for collecting ferns reached such epidemic proportions that it affected the very existence of some species. The fern craze started to gather momentum in the 1840s, books and magazines maintained that fern growing was a hobby that anyone could enjoy as ferns would grow in the glazed fernery, garden, shady yard, window box or even indoors in Wardian Cases. The mania also spread from the living plant to depicting it in architecture and the decorative arts. Even roads, villas and terraced houses were named after the fern.This book, the first to deal exclusively with the subject for nearly forty years, looks at the how the craze developed, the… [detailed...]

Description: Book Description A fascinating memoir of refugee flight and survival, intellectual yet highly personal, by one America`s eminent literary critics. The Vienna Paradox is Marjorie Perloff`s memoir of growing up in pre-World War II Vienna, her escape to America in 1938 with her upper-middle-class, highly cultured, and largely assimilated Jewish family, and her self-transformation from the German-speaking Gabriele Mintz to the English-speaking Marjorie?who also happened to be the granddaughter of Richard Schuller, the Austrian foreign minister under Chancellor Dollfuss and a special delegate to the League of Nations. Compelling as the story is, this is hardly a conventional memoir. Rather, it interweaves biographical anecdote and family history with speculations on the historical development of early 20th-century Vienna as it was experienced by her parents` generation, and how the loss of their `high` culture affected the lives of these cultivated refugees in a… [detailed...]
