Judy Valon
Vine Lines

2007 y.
Publisher: Wine Appreciation Guild
Description: Cigar box. Bacon Character. Fleshy overtones. Extracted palate. Barnyard. That wine could have such associations might cause the uninitiated to regard wine verbiage as barnyard in its own right. Though these idioms do have a practical value to the professional wine taster, the stereotype (serious, bow-tied old men making bizarre characterizations in between gurgles) doesn t need much comedic assistance, similar to that of the secret handshakes of Masons. Illustrated by the well-known Australian cartoonist Roger Roberts, this charming little book explores this curious realm of wine terminology by creating a visual lexicon on the far side of a wine world where its language ( barnyard, exotic nose ) is taken literally. Sometimes brash, sometimes cute, Robert s work is always good for a chuckle. In between Robert s visual puns, professional wine taster Judy Valon gives a serious and solid primer on enjoying red, white, sparkling and fortified wines, how to… [detailed...]

Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Thanksgiving has come and gone, and hunting season is in full swing on the Vineyard. J. W. Jackson -- retired cop, dedicated fisherman, and passionate cook -- is more or less holed up with his wife, Zee, and their two spunky kids for the winter. At least dear old dad has finally agreed to get a computer to keep them connected to the outside world! Otherwise, their cozy Vineyard home is pretty much cut off from civilization during this time of year. Still, the world has a way of intruding on their idyllic winter setting. When J.W.`s old Vietnam buddy and Vineyard fishing companion, Joe Begay, asks to be met on Cape Cod and virtually smuggled back to the island, J.W. knows something`s not right. Joe wouldn`t be sneaking around and asking J.W. to do him odd favors if trouble weren`t brewing. J.W. also knows that Begay wasn`t merely a soldier, but he has also performed highly secretive work for the government ever since Vietnam. Soon, the facts begin to emerge: A… [detailed...]

Publisher: Le Livre de Poche
Description: Le lecteur des `Trois Mousquetaires` retrouvera dans `Vingt Ans apr?s` ses heros ravoris : Athos, Porthos, Aramis, ainsi que le gai, lucide et subtil d`Artagnan. La Fronde et la Revolution d`Angleterre servent de cadre a leurs exploits, qui les mettent aux prises avec Mazarin et avec Cromwell. Roman historique ou roman de cape et d`epee ? Avec `Le Vicomte de Bragelonne`, la trilogie des `Mousquetaires` concilie heureusement les exigences des deux genres. La presente edition, annotee avec soin, souligne la dette de Dumas envers les memorialistes et les historiens et atteste la solidite de son information. Sur des donnees authentiques, qu`il redistribue a sa guise, le narrateur brode un reck plein d`incroyables peripeties, dont la structure et les themes sont ceux de l`epopee et du conte, mais qu`il assaisonne d`humour. Venant a la suite des `Trois Mousquetaires`, `Vingt Ans apr?s`, moins simple, moins romanesque aussi, s`en distingue par une peinture plus diversifiee de la… [detailed...]
