The Shadow out of Time: The Corrected Text

H. P. Lovecraft
Hippocampus Press
, 2001
A must-have for Lovecraft fans
"The Shadow Out of Time" is one of Lovecraft's finest tales, and this version is a collector-quality edition. The story itself is found in many Lovecraft anthologies, including an excellent presentation in Arkham House's "The Dunwich Horror and Others." However, there are many features that mark this volume as the definitive edition of "The Shadow Out of Time." The corrected text from a ...

Whistle
James Jones seems to have a reputation for being an author stuck on WWII. Whistle is indeed about an aspect of WWII. But like all of James Jones's work, he brings a sense of "truth" to this an all of his other books. Jones knew the difference between a bronze star and the CIB. He also knew the difference between getting "laid" and making love. He also knew the difference between a ...
Family Names of the Island of Newfoundland

Memorial University of Newfoundland
, 1998
Invaluable to the casual researcher of NF family history.
Seary's in-depth study of nearly three thousand family names of Newfoundland, arose from his work on the study of place names of the island. As his study progressed, Seary became fascinated with tracking families as they migrated along the coast or changed their names to avoid detection by Britain and France. His pursuit of the rise of Newfoundland surnames illustrates that relationships, ...
Aurora Leigh: A Poem : From the Last London Edition, Corrected by the Author
2 reviews
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Academy Chicago Publishers
, 1979
An amazing achievement
E.B.B. set out to outstrip Milton and does so in an amazingly original way. Aurora Leigh is a novel in blank verse that is actually longer than Paradise Lost! She combines the genre expectations for a woman writer--the novel--with an audacious bid for poetic immortality. The book tells a good story but it also works as a formidable reminder to her contemporary poets that the novel is taking ...

Excellent Company
We on the East Coast have been spoiled for years. We could see and hear Jack McCarthy perform almost every Wednesday at the Cantab in Cambridge, Mass or catch a feature of his monthly at the various venues around New England. Jack is now living on the west coast, and we miss him. I keep his book Goodnight, Grace Notes at my bedside, not just to remember his fine performances, but because his ...

The Beard by Michael McClure
This is a really fantastic play - from what I've read of it. I did a scene from The Beard a few weeks ago in English class & it was just fantastic. The two characters in the play are Billy the Kid - fabled outlaw of American folklore - & Jean Harlow - cinema star & uber-Marilyn Monroe. The entire play I gather is a meeting between these two in the blue velvet Eternity. Eternity like where Jack & ...

A stunning revelation about the Battle of Midway
. Why did all but one squadron (VT-8) from the USS Hornet fail to find the Japanese carriers during the Battle of Midway while planes planes from Enterprise, Yorktown, and Midway Atoll had no such problem? Bowen Weisheit, a U.S. Marine aviator and experienced navigator, presents the answer in this fascinating study, culminating in a detailed chart showing the track all Hornet squadrons and ...

Light in August: The Corrected Text

William Faulkner
Topeka Bindery
, 1999
One of the greatest Faulkner Books
Out of all the Faulkner novels I've had the pleasure to read, Light In August has to be the one of my favorites and is easily the simplistic of his novels to read. It's a love story but not in a traditional sense and yet after you read it you'll fall in love with the characters.

YOu will find there all the major themes written in an engaging style, and all the threads of the plot. Just jump there and the teacher will think you read the whole not-easily-digestible work.

SOVIET MILITARY POWER - The Pentagon's Propaganda Document, Annotated and Corrected

AN EYE OPENER
Having read the first 6 editions of Soviet Military Power (SMP) (published by the DoD) while in the Army, I was interested enough to purchase this annotated and corrected version of the '87 SMP when it first came out. I learned very quickly not to bring it to work. Everyone wanted to borrow or look at it. All I can say is that it was quite an eye opener. It made me wonder what other figures were ...

University of California Press

New edition out soon
The much awaited new edition of this book should be out by the summer of 2007. The old edition's taxonomy has gotten rather dated. This new edition will be a must for serious marine biologists who want to identify California's wonderfully diverse marine invertebrate fauna.
Mrs. Jeffries Stands Corrected (Victorian Mystery)

Emily Brightwell
Berkley
, 1996
Loveable Mrs. Jeffries and Friends
As a previous reviewer mentioned, this series is "cozy" even if not always historically accurate. The Jeffries household is much like an adult version of the Baker Street Irregulars, but less intense so to speak. If you have had a bit of stress in you life, these are like watching an old '50's TV program that didn't add to your pre-existing stress.

I have used Young's Analytical Concordance for 50 years and it is by far the best tool to study the Bible I have found.

Fine Family Fare
This tale of Scots resistance against English King Edward is essential to those who grew up with "Scots wha hae wi' Wallace bled" in their ears. Others may enjoy it more for its romance. What pleased me most was seeing the medieval (turn of 13th-14th century) history through the focus of the English author Jane Porter, whose text was published in 1809, and the 1921 edition's illustrations by ...

Absalom! Absalom!
I wrote a paper historical truth in Absalom! Absalom! in graduate school and decided to revisit the novel. The edition I purchased through Amazon is the one I used 35 years ago and consequently has some associations for me. I am pleased with the condition of my purchase. Thanks.Absalom, Absalom!: The Corrected Text (Modern Library)
Georgian: A Reading Grammar : Corrected Edition

Howard I. Aronson
Audio-Forum
, 1997
Great Resource
I agree that it is a "slow read." But I think it is well worth it. When you work your way through the exercises at the end of each chapter you will be amazed how much you have learned. The really terrific thing is there are answer keys to all exercises as well. It is rare to find answer keys these days so that really adds to the value of the book for a self-starter.

Faulkner's Best (One of them, anyway)
This "Absalom,Absalom", and "Go Down, Moses" are my favorite novels by Faulkner. "Light in August" has the advantage of being his most readable book. I will let you in on a little secret, though. I have found that Faulkner is much better to LISTEN to than read straight. I'd read several of his books when I discovered my local library had a number of tapes and CDs of his work. Those read by Mark ...
