First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. In simple, darkly faceted stories, Philander Deming writes as a person whose childhood knowledge of the Adirondacks has been honed to a fine sense for its potential human tragedy. In this, the first collection of his best work, a haunting vision of the Adirondacks comes through that is hard to forget. Deming's themes revolve around deception and self-deception, loneliness, and good intentions gone awry. Most of his stories occur just before or after the Civil War. In almost every story, however, Deming shows his characters looking back towards the mountains, from the Mohawk or St. Lawrence Valley or from lonely settlements on the edge of the forest, or across Lake Champlain. Few Adirondack writers have been so convincing in conveying the keen isolation of life in the northern forest and its peculiar effects on the human mind. The wilderness community is cruel, fostered by ignorance and isolation. In the end, the mountains, seemingly a neutral backdrop against which individuals confront a collective morality, are the real source of his inspiration. Stated First Edition. First printing with full number line. Brand new hardcover in a new, mylar covered, dust jacket. The photos on the listing page are of the actual book for sale. Always carefully packaged and shipped quickly.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the experiences of the author, Malcolm Bruce, who became a reporter in the courts of law in various states of the Union. Malcolm, a hardworking, compassionate young man with a thirst for justice, stumbles upon a way to revolutionize the American judicial system through the introduction of shorthand in the courtroom. By implementing shorthand, Malcolm reforms the long-frustrating process of recording witness testimony during trials. This shift eliminates delays and inaccuracies, leading to a more reliable and efficient legal system. The introduction of shorthand as a reporting method not only streamlines the courtroom but also provides opportunities for Malcolm and others in previously unexplored fields. At the time, the courts relied heavily on the judge and lawyers to record evidence, a slow and error-prone method. Malcolm's innovation brings about significant changes in the legal system, opening doors for new possibilities in reporting and paving the way for future advancements in the field. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the transformative journey of a pathfinding innovator whose relentless pursuit of progress left an indelible mark on the legal landscape of the United States. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
