Paperback. Zustand: Good. Edited by Joseph Pearce Contributors to this volume: Anthony J. Berret, S.J. William F. Byrne John Francis Devanny Jr. Mary R. Reichardt Thomas W. Stanford III Aaron Urbanczyk Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is, according to many critics and fond readers, the great American novel. Full of vibrant American characters, intriguing regional dialects and folkways, and down-home good humor, it also hits Americans in one of their greatest and on-going sore spots: the fraught issue of racism. As Huck and Jim float down the Mississippi and encounter all manner of people and situations, and as Huck struggles mightily with his conscience concerning Jim, the novel strongly invites a moral and religious perspective. In this new edition, Mary R. Reichardt's introduction places the book in its historical and biographical context, and several critical articles examine such issues as the book's moral implications, religious contexts, and status as an American epic. Mary R. Reichardt, the editor of this edition, is a professor of literature in the Catholic Studies department at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul MN. The Ignatius Critical Editions represent a tradition-oriented alternative to popular textbook series such as the Norton Critical Editions or Oxford World Classics, and are designed to concentrate on traditional readings of the Classics of world literature. While many modern critical editions have succumbed to the fads of modernism and post-modernism, this series will concentrate on tradition-oriented criticism of these great works. Edited by acclaimed literary biographer, Joseph Pearce, the Ignatius Critical Editions will ensure that traditional moral readings of the works are given prominence, instead of the feminist, or deconstructionist readings that often proliferate in other series of 'critical editions'. As such, they represent a genuine extension of consumer-choice, enabling educators, students and lovers of good literature to buy editions of classic literary works without having to 'buy into' the ideologies of secular fundamentalism. The series is ideal for anyone wishing to understand great works of western civilization, enabling the modern reader to enjoy these classics in the company of some of the finest literature professors alive today.…

Zustand: Fair. The novella classically evokes the seafaring life at the turn of the century. Captain MacWhirr, of the steamer _Nan-Shan, _ had a physiognomy that, in the order of material appearances, was the exact counterpart of his mind: it presented no marked characteristics of firmness or stupidity; it had no pronounced characteristics whatever; it was simply ordinary, irresponsive, and unruffled. The only thing his aspect might have been said to suggest, at times, was bashfulness; because he would sit, in business offices ashore, sunburned and smiling faintly, with downcast eyes. Having just enough imagination to carry him through each successive day, and no more, he was tranquilly sure of himself; and from the very same cause he was not in the least conceited. It is your imaginative superior who is touchy, overbearing, and difficult to please; but every ship Captain MacWhirr commanded was the floating abode of harmony and peace. It was, in truth, as impossible for him to take a flight of fancy as it would be for a watchmaker to put together a chronometer with nothing except a two-pound hammer and a whip-saw in the way of tools. Yet the uninteresting lives of men so entirely given to the actuality of the bare existence have their mysterious side. It was impossible in Captain MacWhirr's case, for instance, to understand what under heaven could have induced that perfectly satisfactory son of a petty grocer in Belfast to run away to sea. . . .…

Zustand: Very Good. Seymour Chwast, an icon of the graphic design world, has delighted audiences with his adaptations of The Divine Comedy, The Canterbury Tales, and The Odyssey, but it is in Mark Twain's A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court that he has found his match. Inspired by Twain's comic irreverence for the Knights of the Round Table, Chwast's illustrations showcase his humor at its finest. He brings us a brilliant imagining of the beloved hero, Hank Morgan, as well as the full cast of Camelot characters, from Merlin to Lancelot to the king himself. With a bold and colorful design and no shortage of witty surprises, this is Mark Twain as you've never seen him before. Joseph Ciardiello (illustrator).…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Girl with the Purple Ribbon is an action/adventure story. But it's a love story, and we can always use another love story. It's a story where three childhood friends find themselves on separate sides of the Vietnam War. Coming of age in 1965, they learn that love, honor, and freedom cost more than they expect. In 1965, America fell from grace and into the labyrinth of the Vietnam War. Its sons came by the thousandths to fulfill President John F. Kennedy's pledge: .pay any price to assure the survival of liberty. The children of the greatest generation would fulfill their birthright, and many would join him on the slopes of Arlington National Cemetery. Girl with the Purple Ribbon is the story of Seamus O'Grady and Elijah Bravo, two hay-seed cowboys from the Texas Hill Country who dream of the nobility of battle and anticipate the day when it would be their turn. Seamus is a righteous boy and is driven by sensibilities defined by right and wrong. Elijah Bravo, the wild one, is half Comanche and half Mexican. Schooled in the ways of the tribal shamans his transcendental nature enables him to see a fifth dimension. The boys join the Marine Corps and follow the allusion of saving countries. Eventually, they would learn, there was no light at the end of the tunnel and America did not bleed to help a friend. Regardless, they would stand up for what they believe, yet would struggle to find a reason to persevere amidst the chaos of the Vietnam War. The path they would follow will paint a colorful canvass that stretches from the rolling countryside of the Texas Hill Country, to the battled scares of Hill-861, Khe Sanh, the DMZ, and Hue City. Ofa Hawkins, known as Pretty Girl, the sexy side-kick of Seamus and Elijah is sassy, stubborn, and opinionated. She's a preacher's daughter, a scholar, and driven by Scripture she becomes the iconic symbol of the peace movement and wears a purple ribbon to show solidarity for the Vietnam dead and the futility of the war. The war dissolves their friendship, and with the boys off to war, Ofa attends college and eventually becomes a physician. Seamus had her heart, and she had his, but young love is tenuous. As a celebrated physician and peace activist, Ofa Hawkins gains national and international acclaim, but she falls into an abyss; there's a hole in her heart. Yet, there's something she must do. A fanatical mission Ofa Hawkins, girl with the purple ribbon Of course, she would go to Vietnam, and she'd go for blood. Under the guise of a physician on a medical mission she follows a circuitous path of mystery, intrigue, and playing on the sensibilities of men, she would search for that one reason worthy of death: love. Girl with the Purple Ribbon is a testament to Shakespeare's assertion of the nobility of the human condition: what piece of work is man. Ofa Hawkins, Seamus O'Grady, and Elijah Bravo will answer Shakespeare's quest. Ofa Hawkins, the girl with the purple ribbon, would fight the last battle of the Vietnam War. Would she survive? No warrior, no pacifist, no member of the silent majority walked away from Vietnam unscathed. …

Hardback. Zustand: Good. In this movie-tie-in released alongside the highly anticipated documentary NO SAFE SPACES, editors Dennis Prager and Mark Joseph compile the most poignant, shocking, and upsetting things they uncovered during their film's investigation of political correctness run amuck on college campuses. With a foreword by Adam Carolla and fascinating interviews with 12 Rules for Life author Jordan Peterson and Not a Daycare author Dr. Everett Piper, NO SAFE SPACES presents a clear-eyed (and often very funny) analysis of anti-free speech student movements, which have made college campuses the most dangerous place for ideas and liberty in America.…
