Paperback. Zustand: Collectible-Like New. Cinnamon Bay Plantation on lush, tropical St. John was the ideal Caribbean island getaway: Or so it seemed. But for distinguished Harvard economist Henry Spearman, long overdue for R & R, it offered diversion of a decidedly different sort and one he'd hardly anticipated: murder. It could…n't have happened to a nicer guy. Prickly and priggish, Gen. Hudson T. Decker (Ret.) might have been a Cinnamon Bay regular, but he'd managed to alienate fellow guests and a lot of townspeople over the years. Suddenly, before the local inspector has assembled a suspect list, there is a mysterious drowning and a second murder, this time a former U.S. Supreme Court justice. Prime suspects abound: a liberal professor of divinity, a vengeful wife, an alleged girlfriend, and a handful of angry local activists. While the island police force is mired in an investigation that leads everywhere and nowhere, the diminutive, balding Spearman, who likes nothing better than to train his curiosity on human behavior, conducts an investigation of his own, one governed by rather different laws--those of economics. Theorizing, hypothesizing, Spearman sets himself on the trail of the killer as it twists from the postcard-perfect beaches and manicured lawns of a premier resort to the bustling old port of Charlotte Amalie to the densely forested hiking trails with their perilous drops to a barren, deserted cay offshore. Now available in a new critical edition, Marshall Jevons's Murder at the Margin was first published in 1978, when it marked the debut of Henry Spearman. Spearman relies on economic thinking to solve crimes--a distinction that places him in the pantheon of such fictional investigators as Father Brown, Miss Marple, Hercule Poirot, and Rabbi Small.

A Dictionarie of English and Latin IDIOMES wherein PHRASES of the English and Latine Tongue Answering in Parallels . .

In den WarenkorbFirst Edition. First edition of this translation, 8vo, pp. viii, xi (subscriber list), [2], 103, 103 (English and Scottish text parallel on facing pages), [1], 6, [2] errata; original blue paper-covered boards, cream paper shelfback, manuscript title on spine; small paper shelf label at the foot of the spine; lightly rubbed, spi…ne a little darkened, else very good. With the contemporary ownership signature of "Tweeddale" on title page - Marquis of Tweedale appears in the subscriber list. Ramsay (1686-1758), not to be confused with the portrait artist of the same name - his son - was by turns a wig-maker, poet, bookseller, publisher, editor, and playwright. He was an vocal promoter of Scots poetry and poets. His own chief composition was The Gentle Sheperd, first printed in 1725, a work that attained great popularity but went for many years without being translated into English. In her preface, Margaret Turner makes clear "it is a great disadvantage to this beautiful poem that it is written in the old rustic dialect of Scotland, which, in a short time, will probably be entirely obsolete, and not intelligible." Lowndes indicates that there were two English versions that preceded this one, one by Cornelius Vanderstop in 1777, and one by W. Ward in 1785. Given the fact that "Tweeddale" appears on the title page, the fact that John, Charles, and James Hay are listed among the book's subscribers, and the fact that members of the Hay family had for many years been marquises of Tweedale, there is a very strong likelihood that this is a subscriber's copy.
