Condition: new. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1928). (1600) 1928 new edition. Small 4to (186 x 250mm). Pp[iv],iv,24. B/w photograph frontispiece of first edition title-page. Grey cloth-backed paper-covered boards, white paper title-label printed in black to upper board, spine untitled. Corners rubbed & boards slightly chipped. A good copy. The first edition, published in 1600, is a great rarity. This second edition, with an extensive new introduction by Eric Parker, was the first to bring John Taverner's observations to a wider audience. Taverner's observations on natural history were far ahead of his time and many of his theories still hold true today. An important book, much overlooked by earlier angling writers. "John Taverner's treatise, small in volume though it may be. is in its own way a masterpiece. It belongs to an age when men were content to copy down from other books statements which they themselves had not verified, when they believed the fabulous and repeated the impossible. And there in contrast to that ready acceptance of myth and invention, stands Certaine Experiments concerning Fish and Fruite, an exact transcript from personal experience accurately recorded 'for the benefit of others,' and a model of correct inference from observed facts. .As an observing and recording field naturalist, John Taverner stands centuries in advance of his time." (From the introduction by Eric Parker). .…

Mara Hiddenbridge, film critic at The Villonia Voice newspaper is content to tuck herself away in a movie theater, write screenplays that never see the light of day, and quietly grieve the sudden death of her father. Content, or comfortably numb, perhaps.Her walled-off world is penetrated when she witnesses a body being recovered from her favorite writing corner in Willow Bend Park, and life begins to imitate art.Meanwhile, a Villonia Michigan Mayoral candidate she's slated to interview about a controversial plan to draw the movie industry to the mid-western state, turns out to be Paolo Santini, the cocky, handsome contractor of Santini Family Construction, with romantic ties to her past that she'd hoped never to face again. Further complications arise when a strange Scotsman and ex-cop, Gabriel Mason, approaches Mara in Willow Bend with suspicions and evidence that cast her in the center of a conspiracy with more twists than any movie she's ever seen.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. From all outward appearances, Jade Nemo is trouble. The jet-black hair. The nose ring. Her father is absent-perhaps even missing, her step-mother doesn't know what to do with her, and now she's been accused of hatching a master plan of attack at her high school, planting explosives in a student's locker. But no one has bothered to ask Jade what her side of the story is. Until her teacher, Ms. Pearson, and the new school counselor, Mrs. Hamelin, give her a chance. Jade swears she has no intention of violence, and the true threat is Cassie Winters, the popular blond lacrosse captain who no one recognizes as the manipulating bully that she is-not to mention the questionable motivations of Flynn Jonovich, the striking enigmatic artist who holds both her heart and her fate in his hands. She's not sure what to do-so she runs-and now the hunt is on. They're calling her a "dangerous, possibly armed, runaway." A psychiatrist, someone Mrs. Hamelin said she could trust, gives her shelter and a chance to escape it all-but under two conditions: she must close her eyes and follow her instructions. Should she trust her? The Land of Deep Darkness, inspired by The Pied Piper of Hamelin fairytale, is the story of redemption and the power of love to break through all barriers. It's the tale of a resilient young woman who's determined to uncover the truth about her father, no matter what it costs her. This item is printed on demand.
