(9781405471657) , A Cook's Guide To Spicy Recipes No Redeeming Social Merit: A Silly Souffle Of Prose, Poems And Punchlines
Sioux Falls, SD Hen's Teeth N.D. 0962111252 First Edition; First Printing Paperback Very Good with no dust jacket
Very good, with minimal shelf wear; there are several creases along the spine and a small dirt spot on the right side of front cover. Appears to be autographed by author. Sticker on front cover: "We Know You Like Local Authors. "; Trade PB; 52 pages; Janice H. Mikesell sees things differently, and what is more important, she manages to share her unique angle of vision with her readers. No Redeeming Social Merit is a potpourri of tales, verse, aphorisms, and odds to no end, all of which are subtly directed at undermining the commonplace. Bold and coy by turns. Janice Mikesell seduces her reader into seeing it her way on subjects ranging from gender to the wild blue yonder. Her playful way with language will tickle you pink (or blue, depending on your spectrum preferences) and her irony will get all the wrinkles out of your stuffed shirt.; Signed by One Author

(9781405471657) , A Cook's Guide To Spicy Recipes Cornplanter Chronicles: A Tale of the Legendary Seneca Chieftain
Custer City, PA Mountain Laurel Pub Corp 2001 1929382014 First Edition Hardcover Fine in Fine dust jacket Signed by Author
Autographed by Author. Excellent condition, with minimal shelf wear. Unused/Unread/Unmarked Book.; Large 8vo 9" - 10" ; 315 pages; Cornplanter Chronicles is a story unlike any other story about a Native American nation and its war chief. The Seneca, a member of the Iroquois League of Six Nations, is the only tribe to survive intact to this day on their ancestral land. They are the only tribe in the United States that was never defeated by American armies and forced to accept the white man's terms. They fought on the losing side several times (The French against the British in the French and Indian War, and the British against the United States in the Revolutionary War) , but in each case the war was lost elsewhere and they fought on. When it finally came in 1791, it was Cornplanter, head chief of the Seneca, who negotiated the terms and brought peace to the Alleghenies. Cornplanter (Ganiodieu 1733-1832) was a Seneca war chief from the time he was eighteen years old. He guided his people through three wars between the white men including the War of 1812 when the Seneca were finally allied with the United States against the British. The Seneca were the true Romans in North America and Cornplanter was their Julius Caesar. The book tells the story of Chief Cornplanter the man. The fictional account of the actions of this real life chief gives an exciting insight into the birth of the United States of America. The facts identify Cornplanter as the man who named George Washington "great white father", a name that has historically been used by Native Americans for the President. It identifies the two men as contemporaries and gives three separate instances when Washington actually came under the knife of the great chief. Along with telling the story of many battles, this book illustrates the tremendous weight of leadership the chief carried. Born of a white father and a Seneca mother, he played the same role for his people as Washington did for the new nation. Both men guided their people through a troubled and changing time. This is a work of fiction based on facts from our history and the life of a truly great man who until now has been ignored and forgotten. ; Signed by Author

Laurel, NY Lightyear c1976 0899681611 Reprint Library Binding Near Fine with no dust jacket
Unused/Unread/Unmarked Book.; 8.8 x 5.8 x 0.9 inches; 350 pages; From Library Journal - Written in 1821, this historical novel is Cooper's paean to the Revolutionary War, as protagonist Harry Birch finds himself wrongly accused of selling vital information to the British. The book incorporates several real characters, including George Washington.(Copyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc. "I believe I could write a better story myself!" With these words, since become famous, James Fenimore Cooper laid aside the English novel which he was reading aloud to his wife. A few days later he submitted several pages of manuscript for her approval, and then settled down to the task of making good his boast. In November, 1820, he gave the public a novel in two volumes, entitled Precaution. But it was published anonymously, and dealt with English society in so much the same way as the average British novel of the time that its author was thought by many to be an Englishman.

Ainsworth, Maryan W. (editor) and Christiansen, Keith (editor) From Van Eyck to Bruegel Early Netherlandish Painting in the Metropolitan Museum of Art
New York Abrams 0810965283 Hardcover Very Good+ in Very Good dust jacket
Cloth boards. The book is in very good condition, with minimal shelf wear, there is a slight discoloration on the bottom of the pages toward the foredge. The dust jacket has a small hole in the front of the cover, slight rubbing and some wear on the corners. ; 1.43 x 11.35 x 9.39; 452 pages; The New York Times Book Review, John Russell If there were a first prize ... For beauty of statement and probity of elucidation, this catalogue would run away with it. Published on the occasion of the exhibition "From Van Eyck to Bruegel," this book presents an overview of one of the great epochs of Western art as seen through the extensive collection of the Metropolitan Museum. The period covered, sometimes referred to as the northern Renaissance, encompasses a century and a quarter of unparalleled artistic innovation and achievement realized in the geographic area of modern Belgium and the Netherlands. It opens about 1425 with the legendary inventor of oil painting, Jan van Eyck, and concludes with one of the most original geniuses of European art, Pieter Bruegel the Elder. Virtually every major master active during this era is represented, including Van Eyck, Robert Campin, Roger van der Weyden, Petrus Christus, Dieric Bouts, Hugo van der Goes, Hans Memling, Gerard David, Joos van Cleve, Quentin Massys, Jan Gossart, Bernard van Orley, Joachim Patinir and Bruegel. The volume is arranged thematically to emphasize the ways artists employed realism as a strategy. Introductory essays illuminate aspects of early Netherlandish painting: the history of its critical fortunes and scholarship; its acquisition by fifteenth- and sixteenth-century patrons; its relationship to Italian Renaissance painting; and the building of the Museum's collection in this area.

Excellent condition, with minimal shelf wear. Unused/Unread/Unmarked Book.; B&W Photographs; 12.5 x 10.1 x 0.7 inches; 107 pages; From the book: Although many of the athletes in this book are champions, these images are not about winning. None of the photographs were taken during competition, and other athletes featured will never achieve national or international recognition. Yet, Life behind the scenes the focus of this work remains the same for them and for the champions. We hope that we have managed to portray some of the tribulations and triumphs that we found in competitors of all nationalities, ages and skill levels. These images originate from a variety of related projects. In 1998 the National Art Gallery of Malaysia invited us to stage a new photographic art exhibition for the Commonwealth Games Cultural Festival in Kuala Lumpur. With an entirely open brief, it seemed appropriate to focus upon the reason for the festival, namely the sports themselves. We therefore began photographing athletes from many countries and sports institutions, visiting facilities from the most basic to the state of the art. Twin Palms Publishers produces fine art and photography books. High quality papers and award-winning design assure the long lasting value of each volume. This first edition of Athletes is limited to 3,000 copies.

Anderson, T. M. Our Holy Faith
Kansas City, MO Beacon Hill 1965 Second Printing Hardcover Very Good+ in Very Good- dust jacket
Tight binding. Prev owners name on inside cover. Shelf wear on cover. ; Our Holy Faith is the outcome of an assignment given to Dr. T. M. Anderson to prepare a book which would serve as the text for a basic college course in Christian theology. Although it was to be somewhat broad in its coverage, special emphasis was to be placed on the doctrine of entire sanctification. Dr. Anderson began by mining scores of books, both old and new, which were related to the general theme. From these he selected secions which fitted into the outline which he had prepared. He filled in the gaps with writings of his own and capped it off with a helpful appendix. The result is a book which is not so much a systematic presentation of theology as it is a rich source book of historic and contemporary thought concerning the basic positions of the Wesleyan-Arminian school.

Dust Jacket in mylar cover. ; B&W Photographs; 1.49 x 10.65 x 8.22; 954 pages; The third volume of this three-volume work, for the first time, presents the broadest range of shakespeare studies in one accessible set. As a valuable learning and research tool for students, teachers, general readers, and shakespeare scholars alike, the collection is distinguished for both its readability and detail and for the new thinking it encourages about the man, his world, his work, and his influence. Vol. III - HIS INFLUENCE, surveys the effect that Shakespeare has had on theatrical production, playwriting, literature, education and popular culture from elizabethan times to the present. The discussions are varied in approach -- some are technical in nature, others have a historical emphasis, and still others represent evaluations of Shakespeare and his influence on our lives today. Overall, these essays show why the playwright's work has endured through the centuries and what its impact has been on educational, political and social institutions.

Yet through it all they prevail: They fall in love, they dance to their own imagined music, and they face the world courageously.

Block, Lawrence Hit List
New York William Morrow 2000 0060198338 First Edition; First Printing Hardcover Near Fine in Very Good- dust jacket
Very good, with minimal shelf wear, except for two cup rings on the front dust jacket. ; 1.06 x 9.58 x 6.44; 296 pages; Keller is a regular guy, a solid citizen. Call him for jury duty and he serves without complaint. He goes to the movies, watches the tube, browses the art galleries, and works diligently on his stamp collection. But every now and then a call from the breezily efficient Dot sends him off to kill a total stranger. He takes a plane, rents a car, finds a hotel room, and gets back before the body is cold. He's a real pro, cool and dispassionate and very good at what he does. Until one day when Dot breaks her own rule and books him for a hit in New York, his home base. She sends him to an art gallery opening, and the girl he gets lucky with steers him to an astrologer. He's a Gemini, his moon's in Taurus . . . And he's got a murderer's thumb. Then the jobs start to go wrong. Targets die before he can draw a bead on them. The realization is slow in coming, but there's no getting around it: Somebody out there is trying to hit the hit man. Keller, God help him, has found his way on to somebody else's hit list. Darker than Keller's conscience, and as riveting, surprising, and wickedly funny as his sensational New York Times bestselling debut, Hit Man, Lawrence Block's Hit List only serves to confirm the Wall Street Journal's estimation of the multiple-award-winning author as "one of the very best writers now working the beat."

Bolkosky, Sidney M. Searching for Meaning in the Holocaust
Westport, Conn. Greenwood Publishing Group 2002 0313307644 First Edition; First Printing Hardcover Fine with no dust jacket
Still in shrinkwrap. ; 0.75 x 8.25 x 5.75; 192 pages; SIDNEY M. BOLKOSKY is a modern European intellectual historian. He began interviewing survivors in 1981. Scholars, survivors, and other interested parties have offered, over the years, their own interpretations of the meaning of the Holocaust and the lessons we can learn from it. However, the quest to find a rational explanation for this seemingly irrational course of events has led to both controversy and continued efforts at assigning meaning to this most horrible of events. Examining oral histories provided by survivors, written accounts and explanations, scholarly analysis, and commonly held assumptions, Bolkosky challenges the usual collection of platitudes about the lessons or the meanings we can derive from the Holocaust. Indeed, he argues against the kind of reductionism that such a quest for meaning has led to, and he analyzes the nature of the perpetrators in order to support his position on the inconclusivity of the study of the Holocaust.

Cabanne, Pierre Van Gogh
Paris, FR Finest S. A. /Editions Pierre Terrail 2003 068169260X Softcover Very Good+ with no dust jacket
Excellent condition, with minimal shelf wear. ; 205 pages; Van Gogh was a tormented soul, soft and a rebel at the same time, very much characterized by contrasts, of withdrawals and of intense excitements; Vincent Van Gogh the artist willl live a passionate adventure, one of an "art-possessed" man always on the verge of madness. One has to beware of legends and in Van Gogh's case of romanticized biographies or movies; here, we are talking of a man, of an artist, one of the world's greatest with a tragic destiny, not of a character in a novel; a man, sone of clergyman, obsessed by helping the poverty stricken and the deprived to whom he wishes to unveil the reality of a merciful god. Failure first makes Van Gogh a reporter with a black and grey pencil, of the humble and of their lugubrious settings, then a painter; his works stemmed out of 4 years, between 1886 and 1890. From Holland to Paris where his painting prightened up with impressionistic colours and to Arles where his still mysterious friendship with Gauguin shattered against the most violent of all oppositions. All along the 150 illustrations showcased in this stunning monography by a world renouned art historian, Vincent's life will appear authentic and true to the reader.

Carleton, Robert Howard Physics for the New Age
Philadelphia J. B. Lippincott Company 1954 Revised Edition Hardcover Good+ with no dust jacket
Ex-school library book; however, unmarked copy. Heavy shelf wear to covers. Some page edges bent for place marks. Yellowing of page edges. Otherwise, in good condition, with clean/unmarked pages. ; Ex-Library; B&W Illustrations; 1.375 x 6 x 9 inches; 656 pages; From the preface: The most obvious features of this text is its organization around the interpretive principles and generalizations of physics. Its authors have, however, been guided by a conviction that the high school physics course has a general education function as well as a somewhat specialized function to perform. Thus, while helping to lay the foundation needed by some of the students for later study of more highly specialized science, this course should help now to clarify for all the students the relations of science to the maintenance of health and comfort, to vocational pursuits, to leisure-time activities, and to other aspects of living to which the subject matter of physics relates and to which it contributes functional understandings and means of control. While retaining what is considered to be the greatest strength of the traditional physics course--its systematic organization--this text adds a "life situation" approach. "Life situation" organizations have in the past led to superior results by way of stimulating interest, inducing self-activity, and calling forth vigorous student response. Their failing has been their general disregard for sequence. Recently leaders in psychology and education have stressed the desirability of combining the recognized advantages of the traditional or longitudinal organization with the motivational advantages of the life situation or lateral organization. Every effort has been made to incorporate the strengths of both of these organizations into the plan of this text.

Carruthers, Bob Servants of Evil
London Carlton Publishing Group 2001 1842222376 First Edition; First Printing Hardcover Fine in Very Good+ dust jacket
Excellent condition, with minimal shelf wear. Pages clean, white and crisp. ; B&W Photographs; 1.5 x 5.8 x 9.5 inches; 270 pages; History, they say, is written by the victors, and to date that has certainly been true of World War Two. Although German authors have published texts in their own country, few have reached the rest of the world. Those that do exist were generally written by those in positions of authority, rather than the soldiers, sailors, or airmen who fought in the front line. In the course of making the TV series "Servants of Evil", Bob Carruthers and Cromwell Productions uncovered fascinating first-hand accounts from the ranks of the armed forces, men who went to war believing in the Reich and in victory, but who often become chastened and cynical in the face of what they had been led to believe were impossibilities: the fighting ability and determination of the Russians, the strength of the Royal Air Force, the defeat of the U-boats by improved radar technology, the might and remarkable manufacturing capabilities of the USA and, finally, the fall of Berlin. Servants of Evil covers all areas and stages of the war from the German perspective. Many of those who fought for Germany were young; many of them saw their comrades dying around them. In this they are not unique, but for the first time "Servants of Evil" allows their voices to be heard. These first-hand accounts of war from 'the other side' made fascinating reading and throw new light on the key areas of conflict, the tactics of both sides and the causes for which ordinary Germans believed they were fighting.

Cath, Stanley H. Stepparenting: Creating and Recreating Families in America Today
Hillsdale, N. J. Analytic Press 2001 0881631760 First Edition; First Printing Hardcover Very Good+ in Very Good dust jacket
Unused and unmarked book. Pages clean, white and crisp. Excellent condition, with minimal shelf wear. ; 1.09 x 9.30 x 6.24; 346 pages; In an era when teachers commonly report that up to half of the children in their classes come from multiple homes and have multiple caretakers, the special psychological challenges of stepparenting have never been in greater need of examination. As thoughtful clinicians have long known, stepparenting is among the most complicated of psychological projects: it may simultanenously be a multifaceted burden and a spur to personal autonomy, deepened sensitivity to others, and newfound competence as a nurturer. Among the thousands of divorced people who remarry each year, most - despite their best resolve to live in the present - persist in reassessing the price of separation, especially as they come to appreciate the fact that divorce is seldom a total break for their children. This book is a comprehensive exploration of the process of reconstructing families. More specifically, it is a book about the perils and promise of stepparenting, a caretaking role that may be more challenging than biologically given child rearing. Contributors follow people as they try to reevaluate past misunderstanding and acclimate to new parenting contexts and obligations. Includes bibliographical references and index.

Chalfant, William Y.; Williams, Mont David Cheyennes at Dark Water Creek The Last Fight of the Red River War
Norman, OK University of Oklahoma Press 1997 0806128755 First Edition; First Printing Hardcover New in New dust jacket
Unused/Unread/Unmarked Book. Pages clean, white and crisp. ; 0.99 x 8.81 x 5.83 Inches; 232 pages; Cheyenne said third-quarter clique tells the tragic story of the Southern fans of Cheyenne's. Following the Treaty of Medicine Lodge, through the battles and skirmishes known as the Red River war. The battle of Sappa Creek, the last encounter of that conflict, was a fight between a band of Cheyennes in a company of the sixth Calvary. That took place in Kansas in April 1875. More Cheyennes were killed in that single engagement than in all the previous fighting of the war combined, and later there were controversial charges of massacre--and worse. William Y. Chalfant has used all known contemporaneous sources to recount the tragedy that occurred at the place known to the Cheyennes is Dark Water Creek. In Cheyenne memories, its name remained second only to Sand Creek in the terrible images and the sorrow of it evokes. Chalfant tells the story in a sweeping style that re-creates Cheyenne life on the southern Plains. Beyond examining firsthand and secondary accounts in detail, the author personally, we trace the route of the army detachment from Fort Wallace, Kansas, to the battle site at Sappa Creek, and the route of the Cheyennes from Punished Woman's Fork to the Sappa. His recounting of the lives of the Indian and military participants, both leading up to and following the battle, it is sure to appeal both to scholars of the Indian Wars into the general reader.

Chambers, Don Mannequins At Home in Illinois and Western Indiana
Savoy, IL Soybean Farm Press March 2001 0970673302 First Edition; First Printing Paperback Very Good+ with no dust jacket Signed by Author
Excellent condition, with minimal shelf wear, bumped rear upper corner. Unused and unmarked book. Inscribed on the Title page by the author: "Enjoy Your Journey! Don Chambers" ; Trade PB; 184 pages; Forward: Mannequins was first featured in the Arthur Graphic-Clarion (Arthur, IL) in 1996. It is the very first newspaper comic strip to feature three-dimensional characters with actual photographs as backgrounds. In the beginning the pictures were kind of an afterthought, a way to add some visual interest. As the months went by, I began to receive comments and compliments about where the characters were "at" during their conversations. Where they are at is an anachronism for they reside inside my Macintosh computer where they were created. Yet I hope this feature helps Mannequins to be a little more personal and easier to associate with for my readers. You are now among the first to discover the towns and universities where the characters have visited. It is my hope that you might see something in one of these photographs that prompts you to take a short journey and have an adventure, albeit brief, of your own. Life is too short to miss out on some fun when it is waiting for you, literally, just down the road. ; Signed by Author

Here is a brilliant and compelling fantasy, which builds irresistibly from its everyday beginnings at a subway station on Manhattan's West Side to an epic battle in Central Park. Music and magic conspire together as Tina, her new friend Joel, and the ancient wizard Paavo join forces to defeat an awesome enemy.

Cidylo, Lori All the Clean Ones Are Married: and Other Everyday Calamities in Moscow
Chicago, IL Academy Chicago Publishers 2001 Uncorrected Proof; First Printing Softcover Very Good+ with no dust jacket
Advance Review Copy With Slip Laid In. Excellent condition, with minimal shelf wear. Pages clean and unmarked. ; Trade PB; 8.8 x 5.8 x 0.8 inches; 252 pages; In 1991, Lori Cidylo shocked her Ukrainian Polish-born parents when she told them she was leaving her reporter's job on an upstate New York newspaper to live and work in the rapidly dissolving Soviet Union. For six years she lived on a shoe-string budget in Moscow, in tiny, run-down apartments, struggling with broken toilets and indifferent landlords and coping with the daily calamities of life in Russia. Fluent in Russian, she rode on public transportation, did her own shopping and cooking, and shared the typical Muscovite's life-unlike most Westerners who were still sequestered in the heavily guarded compounds reserved for diplomats and journalists. As the country experienced its most dramatic transformation since the Bolshevik Revolution, she realized she had stepped into a fantastical and absurd adventure. Cidylo's wry, insightful account of what it is like for an American woman living in Russia is a dramatic tale full of insouciant laughter, in which the immediate sense of vivid experience shines on every page. With the sharp eye of an acute observer, she captures the momentous events no less than the everyday trivia: how do Russians address one another now that the familiar "comrade" is passé; or how do you find your way home in a city where the streets keep getting new names? As Russia even now continues to struggle with the Cold War's aftermath, Cidylo gives a delightful, surprising, warmly human view of post-Soviet life.

Clayton, Michael Ollie A Taste of Michael
Xlibris Corporation 2000 0738860344 First Edition; First Printing Paperback Very Good+ with no dust jacket
Excellent condition, with minimal shelf wear. Unused/Unread/Unmarked Book.; Trade PB; 8.5 x 5.8 x 0.4 inches; 124 pages; As you turn page after page, take in poem after poem in "A Taste of Michael...", it will become plainly obvious that the monicker "BlackShakespeare" isn't some cheesy nickname grafted out of egocentrism. Like Barry Manilow (yes Barry Mani!ow!) sang, "You wouldn't believe where I've been, the cities and towns I've been in, it's a miracle, a true blue spectacle..." Well, the resident literature should bare testament to my "true blue spectacle." And so, may the Second Renaissance begin (vain, isn't it?) Michael Ollie Clayton (BlackShakespeare) was born in Redwood City, California, raised in New Orleans, Louisiana from age six, lived in England for two years, was on a plane hi-jacked to Cuba, served as a speechwriter for the Mayor of New Orleans, is formerly married to NASA astronaut Yvonne Cagle, is an extensively published journalist and poet, and currently runs his cattle ranch.
