Summary
Science fiction author Silverberg's scholarly study examines the history of the investigations into the thousands of mysterious mounds that dot the American landscape. It discusses the "discovery" of the mounds by the settlers and frontiersmen, early theories regarding their origins from learned journals of the 1800s, and the studies by the nascent Smithsonian Institute that finally established the mounds as Native American burial grounds.

Total Fears
by Bohumil Hrabal
Bohumil Hrabal (1914-1997) was one of the most important stylists in post-war European literature. He is internationally renowned for such works as I Served the King of England, Too Loud a Solitude, and Closely Watched Trains, on which Jiri's Menzel's Oscar-winning film was based. At the beginning of 1989, after a long literary silence, Hrabal began to write short, single texts, which he considered his "lyrical reportage." Giving these texts the form of letters to the muse of his later years, Hrabal chronicles the momentous events leading up to and following the velvet revolution in the palavering, stream of consciousness style for which he became famous.
