hardcover. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: fine. Second edition. Oversized hardcover in black cloth lettererd in silver. The second edition. Fine, fresh copy in bright, crisp dust jacket with just a tiny nick to the center of the front gutter fold. 144 pp. The glorious late years of steam railroading in Amrica---1955 to 1960-- are powerfully documented in this captivating book graced by 90 of Winston Link's stunning black and white photographic images. He travelled to the small towns of Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, and North Carolina where the Norfolk & Western Railroad operated. In order to capture the full impact and energy of the great trains, he worked mainly at night, setting up complex banks of flashbulbs wired in series to freeze his subjects in dramatic stillness. Here we see not only portraits of the engines themselves but of stationmasters, rural switchmen, , train cleaners and conductors, small stations and huge roundhouses, Equally important is the book's portrayal of trackside rural American life in the 1950s.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - From the Preface: Anyone who sets out to write for publication will soon discover the plethora of instructional materials available to writers. There are, in fact, so many helps on the market-books, maga-zines, on-line courses, MFA programs, even shirts and mugs for writers-that it would be easy to cast the people behind these aids as professional wannabes: 'Those who can write; those who can't teach English.' My own experience counsels otherwise. If space allowed, I could tell of books and articles that have given my writing (or my understanding of the publishing process) a much needed lift. Often this help has come in the form of a quote that encapsulates what I have been learning by trial and error but have never put into words. Over the years I have collected these quotes in file folders, on scraps of paper, in books and magazines marked with sticky notes. They are the bits of writing wisdom I return to time and again. I bring them together here for the edification of budding scribes. Chapters: First Principles Truth Learning the Craft The Reader Getting Started Voice Style Simplicity Language Beginnings Endings Revision Editors Money The Writing Life Critics and Criticism A Sample Query Letter The Elements of Lincoln's Grammar 17 Figures of Speech The Anglo-Saxon Element The Cumulative Sentence It Should be Thrown With Great Force puts the budding writer in the shoes of the professional writer, demystifying to some degree the writing process. It is an ideal book for classroom use, a witty counterbalance to the often 'dry and irksome' English handbook.…

Halbleinen. Zustand: Sehr gut. untere Ecken leicht gestaucht, Leinenbuchrücken etwas verschmutzt!/berieben! Tim Hensley's graphic novel Wally Gropius is actually an acute satire of power, celebrityhood, and modern culture, and tells the story of the titular character, who bears a closer resemblance to a teenaged Richie Rich or a classmate of Archie Andrews at Riverdale High than he does to the famous Bauhaus architect whose name he shares. Wally Gropius is the human Dow Jones, the teen who put the dough in bread, the heir to a vast petrochemical conglomerate. When the elder Thaddeus Gropius confronts Wally with the boilerplate plot ultimatum that he must marry "the saddest girl in the world" or be disinherited, a yarn unravels that is part screwball comedy, part homage to the teen and personality comics of the 1960s, and part unhinged parable on the lucrativeness of changing your identity. Hensley's dialogue is witty, lyrical, sampled, dada, and elliptical, and all in the service of a very bizarre mystery. There's sex, violence, rock and roll, intrigue, betrayal -all brought home in Hensley's truly inimitable style. Created during an era when another well-off "W" was stuffing the coffers of the morbidly solvent, Wally Gropius transforms futile daydreams and nightmares into the absurdity of capital. In englischer Sprache. 62 pages. 26 x 33 cm.…
