Donald Porter Jubilee Jim and the Wizard of Wall Street
Dutton Adult 1990 0525248412 First Edition Hardcover Very Good Very Good
0525248412 remainder mark on page ends, some edge wear; This entertaining, loosely historical novel vibrantly evokes a bygone New York City as it traces the clash between thundering railroad titan Cornelius Vanderbilt and his archrivals Jay Gould and Jim Fisk. Furtive, quiet Gould, rogue wizard of Wall Street, emerges almost as a tragic figure, blinded by his need to mold himself into greatness, haunted by the deaths of his mother and sister, troubled by a mentally deranged son who harbors patricidal fantasies. Gould's unlikely partner in the Erie railway, the clownish, loud Fisk, has an extramarital affair with a struggling actress that parallels Gould's dalliance with divorcee Annabelle Stokes, whose brother-in-law, President Ulysses Grant, becomes a tool in Gould's gold speculation, fueling the Crash of 1869. Unforgettable scenes--Gould and Fisk rowing across the frigid Hudson to New Jersey to evade Vanderbilt's legalistic tentacles; the duo nearly hanged by an angry Wall Street mob--drive home this cautionary tale for today's high-stakes players. -- Publisher's Weekly

Donna Jo Napoli; Rafal Olbinski Beast
New York, New York, U.S.A. Simon Pulse 2004 0689870051 Mass Market Paperback New
0689870051 Orasmyn is a young Persian prince with all the privileges and responsibilities his royal position holds. But when he falters and makes a single wrong decision, his pride angers a pari -- a fairy -- who sets an ancient curse into motion, crucially changing his life on the worst day possible, and forcing him to leave his beloved Persia and his precious family in order to escape death at his father's unwitting hands. With all the cunning he can muster from his human memories and his new beastly instincts, Orasmyn makes his way to India and back, across Europe to France, in search of redemption and forgiveness. Beast is his story. A French beauty named Belle is his redeemer. And then you know the rest. But this is before the rest. This is the story of Beast. Here is Beauty and the Beast as only Donna Jo Napoli can tell it. Like a mosaic-tile artisan, she juxtaposes the unexpected -- the exotic Middle East and the sensuous France, a courtly prince and a hulking lion, a ferocious beast and an undaunted young woman -- and weaves their flavors into her story of Orasmyn's plight, creating a new classic from the old, an epic that lingers like the scent of a rose.

Dorothy West Wedding, The
Doubleday 0385471432 First Edition Hardcover Fine Near Fine
0385471432 On the island of Martha's Vineyard, a very special community has flourished since the turn of the century, an exclusive summer colony of affluent vacationers. A proud, insular, nearly unassailable group, it is made up of the best and the brightest of America's black middle class. A world of doctors and ministers and lawyers and college presidents, it represents a side of the black experience known by too few, a side that is seldom considered. It is a world Dorothy West knows well, for it is her world, and in The Wedding she brings it to wonderful life. Langston Hughes once called Dorothy West "a student of the human race," and The Wedding bears him out, for it contains some of the most unforgettable flesh-and-blood characters you will ever meet, including Shelby Coles, the daughter of a loveless marriage, whose engagement to a white jazz musician threatens to tear her family apart; Lute McNeil, a social-climbing Boston businessman who sees in Shelby and her family everything he could ever want for his three motherless daughters, and who sells his soul to try to win her; and Gram, the daughter of a plantation owner, whose own daughter broke her heart long ago by marrying an ex-slave, and who is kept alive only by bitterness. Through a delicate interweaving of past and present, North and South, black and white, The Wedding unfolds outward from a single isolated time and place until it embraces five generations of an extraordinary American family. It is an audacious accomplishment, a monumental history of the rise of a black middle class, written by the woman who lived it. Wise, heartfelt, and shattering, it is Dorothy West's crowning achievement.

034528996X edge wear, hinge crease, corner creasing on covers; The Return of Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs contains even more adventure, romance and enthralling action than Tarzan of the Apes. At the end of the first book in the classic series that inspired the Disney movie, Jane had promised to marry William Cecil Clayton, Lord Greystoke, convinced by friends and family she could never know happiness living in the jungle as the bride of a primitive ape-man. Tarzan, who had just learned from a comparison of his fingerprints that he is the true heir to the Greystoke title and fortune, had concealed the fact and swore that he was the offspring of a white hunter and an ape, so that Jane can have a life of unshadowed happiness with her fiancée.

0812967062 Tarzan faced his worst attack -- an attack against his wife and child. With the speed of the great apes, Tarzan rushed through the jungle toward his home and family -- only to find that the marauders had been there before him. His farm was in shambles and no one was left alive. Of his beloved wife there was only a charred, blackened corpse, still wearing the rings he had given her. Silently, he buried the body and swore his terrible vengeance against those who had done this terrible deed. Then he set out grimly to track them...through warring armies...across a vast desert that no man had ever crossed...and to a strange valley where only madmen lived.

Edward A. Byers Babylon Gate
New York, New York, U.S.A. baen 1986 0671655655 First Edition Mass Market Paperback Good
0671655655 some cover scuffing, edge wear; It was the ultimate seat of power - the Babylon Gate. Developed ostensibly to aid the people of Earth, it was perverted instead into history's most devastating weapon. The Gate amplified psychic power and focused it with deadly effect. Those who control it could pluck a general from the midst of his army, or destroy his army around him; they could divert missiles to strike far from their original targets, and destroy whole cities as easily as a child can swat a fly.

Edward Bloor Taken
New York Knopf Books for Young Readers 2007 0375836365 First Edition Hardcover New New
0375836365 BY 2035 THE RICH have gotten richer, the poor have gotten poorer, and kidnapping has become a major growth industry in the United States. The children of privilege live in secure, gated communities and are escorted to and from school by armed guards. But the security around Charity Meyers has broken down. On New Year's morning, she wakes and finds herself alone, strapped to a stretcher, in an ambulance that's not moving. She is amazingly calm - kids in her neighborhood have been well trained in kidnapping protocol. If this were a normal kidnapping, Charity would be fine. But as the hours of her imprisonment tick by, Charity realizes there is nothing normal about what's going on here. No training could prepare her for what her kidnappers really want . . . and worse, for who they turn out to be.

Edward Hoagland Balancing Acts
Simon & Schuster 0671746812 First Edition Hardcover Good Good
0671746812 ex-library with usual internal markings, some damage to the pastedowns; some edge wear to boards; Alfred Kazin once said that Edward Hoagland is "a writer born, a writer obsessed." The Washington Post called him "the Thoreau of our time, an essayist so intensely personal, so sharp-eyed and deep-sighted, so tender and tough, lyrical and elegiac as to transmute a simple stroll into a full-blown mystical experience." Here, for the first time in a decade, is a major new collection of essays from the man John Updike called "the best essayist of my generation." This diverse and inspired collection of essays displays all of Hoagland's signature qualities: intimacy, virtuosity, eccentricity, and abiding originality. Though its pieces have breathtaking range, each involves discovery - of landscapes, thoughts, emotions. Hoagland takes us into the rainforest in Belize, the mountains of Yemen, the Okefenokee Swamp, and "Up the Black to Chalkyitsik." With equal passion, he guides us through treacherous terrain in probing essays about the literary world. Part memoir, part travel guide, these twenty-five essays, (all written with a good deal of urgency and fun) represent the work of a master at the top of his dazzling form.

Edward Young One of Our Submarines (Wordsworth Collection)
San Diego, California, U.S.A. Combined Publishing 1998 1853266817 Trade Paperback Very Good
1853266817 In the very highest rank of books about the last war. Submarines are thrilling beasts, and Edward Young tells of four years' adventures in them in a good stout book with excitement on every page. He writes beautifully, economically and with humour, and in the actions he commands he manages to put the reader at the voice-pipe and the periscope so that sometimes the tension is so great that one has to put the book down'.
