White, a writer at the New Yorker magazine who studied under Strunk, described this 'little book' as a 'forty-three-page summation of the case for cleanliness, accuracy, and brevity in the use of English.'

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In the shade of a banyan tree, a grizzled ferryman sits listening to the river. Once he was a wandering monk, and briefly, like thousands of others, he followed Gotama the Buddha, enraptured by his sermons. But this man, Siddhartha, was not a follower of any but his own soul. One of the great… philosophical novels, Siddhartha is a beautifully written tale of the son of an Indian Brahmin who leaves his family to begin a lifelong journey toward Enlightenment. On the way, he faces the entire range of human experience, living with ascetics, meeting Gotama the Buddha, and learning the art of love from Kamala the courtesan. But none of these brings him the answers he seeks. Finally he is transformed by the simple philosophy of the ferryman Vasudeva, whose wisdom comes not from learned teachings but from observing the River. Herman Hesse, a German-Swiss novelist, poet, and painter, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1946. Newly designed and typeset in a 6-by-9-inch format by Waking Lion Press.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog) is a hilarious account by Jerome K. Jerome of three overworked friends who decide to take a boating holiday on the River Thames between Kingston and Oxford. Of course, nothing goes according to plan, and the reulting mayhem with such things as t…ents, camping stoves, and a plaster-of-paris trout trophy creates some of the most entertaining reading ever. A perennial favorite, the book has sold in huge numbers. 'I pay Jerome so much in royalties,' the publisher told a friend, 'I cannot imagine what becomes of all the copies of that book I issue. I often think the public must eat them.' Since its initial publication, Three Men in a Boat has never been out of print. In 2003, The Guardian placed it #33 on The 100 Greatest Novels of All Time; in 2009, Esquire placed it #2 in the 50 Funniest Books Ever. If you're looking for laugh-out-loud humor and an entertaining story, you'll definitely find both in Three Men in a Boat. Newly designed and typeset in a 6-by-9-inch format by Waking Lion Press.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Wind in the Willows features the adventures of woodland residents Mole, Ratty, and Badger as they rescue their friend Toad from escapades with coach-houses, motor-cars, and washer-women, finally helping him vanquish the stoats and weasels who have captured Toad Hall. A. A. Milne, the auth…or of Winnie-the-Pooh, appraised the book in this way: 'One does not argue about The Wind in the Willows. The young man gives it to the girl with whom he is in love, and, if she does not like it, asks her to return his letters. The older man tries it on his nephew, and alters his will accordingly. The book is a test of character. We can't criticize it, because it is criticizing us. But I must give you one word of warning. When you sit down to it, don't be so ridiculous as to suppose that you are sitting in judgment on my taste, or on the art of Kenneth Grahame. You are merely sitting in judgment on yourself. You may be worthy: I don't know, But it is you who are on trial.' Since its beginning as a series of stories told to Kenneth Grahame's young son, the Wind in the Willows has become one of the best-loved children's books of all time. Newly designed and typeset in a 6-by-9-inch format by Waking Lion Press.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What is now known as The Chicago Manual of Style was first published in 1906 as a 'Manual of Style: Being a compilation of the typographical rules in force at the University of Chicago Press, to which are appended specimens of type in use.' From this earliest, 200-page edition, the manual has… evolved into a reference style guide of 984 pages in its 15th edition. But sometimes, as the saying goes, less is more. Now you can get back to the basics with this reprint of the original 1906 edition of the Manual of Style. It includes rules for capitalization, the use of italics, quotations, spelling, punctuation, divisions, footnotes, and tabular work, along with definitions of technical terms. It also includes valuable hints for authors, editors, proofreaders, and copyholders, along with a table of proofreader's marks and specimens of type then in use at the University of Chicago Press. The hints for proofreaders alone are worth the price of admission, but the entire manual provides succinct, essential guidance for anyone who works with words.
