New York: Anchor, June 2005. Trade Paperback. First U.S. Edition, fifth printing. Near Fine. Interior pristine. Spine straight, tight and uncreased. Covers clean and bright. Small bump to top edge. Not from a library. No remainder mark. 325 pages. Welcome to 44 Scotland Street, home to some of Edinburgh's most colorful characters. There's Pat, a twenty-year-old who has recently moved into a flat with Bruce, an athletic young man with a keen awareness of his own appearance. Their neighbor, Domenica, is an eccentric and insightful widow. In the flat below are Irene and her appealing son Bertie, who is the victim of his mother's desire for him to learn the saxophone and italian-all at the tender age of five. Love triangles, a lost painting, intriguing new friends, and an encounter with a famous Scottish crime writer are just a few of the ingredients that add to this delightful and witty portrait of Edinburgh society, which was first published as a serial in The Scotsman newspaper.

New York: Putnam, August 2006. Hardcover. First Edition / full number line. Fine book in a Fine jacket. Spine tail slightly bumped, otherwise As New. Not from a library. No remainder mark. Not clipped. 343 pages.When British and American intelligence catch wind of a major Al Qaeda operation in the works, they instantly galvanize--but to do what? They know nothing about it: the what, where, or when. They have no sources in Al Qaeda, and it's impossible to plant someone. Impossible, unless-- The Afghan is Izmat Khan, a five-year prisoner of Guantanamo Bay and a former senior commander of the Taliban. The Afghan is also Colonel Mike Martin, a twenty-five-year veteran of war zones around the world--a dark, lean man born and raised in Iraq. In an attempt to stave off disaster, the intelligence agencies will try to do what no one has ever done before--pass off a Westerner as an Arab among Arabs.

San Juan, Trinidad & Tobago: Chakra Publishing House, 2005. Trade Paperback. As New. Pristine inside and out. Not from a library. xvi + 452 pages. Against the Grain chronicles the involvement of Balram Singh Rai in colonial-era Guyanese politics offering valuable insights into modern Guyanese political history. The involvement of Balram Singh Rai in the political life of the nation dates to the pre-independence period. Rai's most significant impact took place during the late 1950s and early 1960s when he joined the People's Progressive Party (PPP) in the struggle for an independent Guyana. Between 1959 and 1961 he was the Minister of Community Development and Education and between 1961 and 1962, he was the Minister of Home Affairs. His role in government allowed him to support and promote many reforms, including policies that led to an Indian-African balance in the police force. Rai is remembered for his fairness and his ability to get things done. Unlike many of his contemporaries, Rai's views were… Read More

Cologne: Konemann, 1998. Hardcover. Fine book in a Fine jacket. Remainder dot on bottom edge, otherwise pristine inside and out. Not from a library. Not clipped. A beautiful volume, suitable for gifting. 463 pages. The collision of American innocence with European experience. Concerned that her son Chad may have become involved with a woman of dubious reputation, the formidable Mrs. Newsome sends her 'ambassador' Strether from Massachusetts to Paris to extricate him. Strether's mission, however, is gradually undermined as he falls under the spell of the city and finds Chad refined rather than corrupted by its influence and that of his charming companion, the comtesse de Vionnet. As the summer wears on, Mrs. Newsome comes to the conclusion that she must send another envoy to Paris to confront the errant Chad, and a Strether whose view of the world has changed profoundly. James' favorite novel and one of the greatest of his late works, "The Ambassadors" is a subtle and often witty exploration of…

Happy-go-lucky and a bit roguish, he places an ad in the International Herald Tribune offering his services -- any services. He pursues a response from a wealthy Englishman named Julian Poe who has developed a means of producing truffles and is close to cornering the immensely lucrative truffle market. Bennett signs on and finds himself in Monaco, where he is able to live in a style to which he has always wished to become accustomed. Soon the Sicilian and Corsican Mafiosi intrude and Bennett is joined by the beautiful and experienced (in all ways) Anna. Ham-fisted goons, gendarmes working at cross purposes, French village…

Set in the Ibo heartland of eastern Nigeria, Arrow of God has as its central figure a merry yet dignified chief priest who epitomizes the spirituality and ceremony of village life. When faced with the disintegration of the old order under the impact of British colonial authority, he finds that his own authority and the allegiance of his son are at stake as well. The subsequent collision of opposing forces makes tragedy inevitable.

Not from a library. No remainder mark. Not clipped. xxxii + 365 pages. First published in 1892, this autobiography of the great naturalist, compiled and edited by his son Francis, offers fascinating glimpses into the mind and personal experiences of the man whose discoveries have had such a profound influence on science, philosophy, and the modern world view. In the first half of the book Darwin reminisces about his early life, his family and upbringing, and his five-year voyage on the HMS Beagle, during which he made the many observations that were later to prove so critical to his formulation of evolutionary theory. The second half is devoted mainly to the Origin of Species: its foundations, development, the writing and publication process, its varied critical reception, and the gradual acceptance and…

New York: Dover Publications, June 1983. Trade Paperback. Very Good. Interior unmarked. Spine straight and tight with reading creases. Light edgewear. Not from a library. No remainder mark. x+468 pages. Gandhi's nonviolent protest movement, Satyagraha (satya = true, agraha = firmness), came to stand, like its creator, as a moral principle and a rallying cry. This is Gandhi's story of the path to his vision of Satyagraha and human dignity. Gandhi made scrupulous truth-telling a religion. His simply narrated account of boyhood in Gujarat, marriage at age 13, legal studies in England, and growing desire for purity and reform has the force of a man extreme in all things. He details his gradual conversion to vegetarianism and ahimsa (non-violence) and the state of celibacy (brahmacharya, self-restraint) that became one of his more arduous spiritual trials. In the political realm he outlines the beginning of Satyagraha in South Africa and India, with accounts of the first Indian fasts and protests, his… Read More

Not from a library. No remainder mark. xiii + 244 pages. This radical new analysis of international politics reveals the crucial role of women in implementing governmental foreign policies, be it Soviet Glasnost, Britain's dealings in the EEC, or the NATO alliance. Cynthia Enloe pulls back the curtain on the familiar scenes-governments restricting imported goods, bankers negotiating foreign loans, soldiers serving overseas-and shows that the real landscape is less exclusively male. Bananas, Beaches and Bases shows how thousands of women tailor their marriages to fit the demands of state secrecy; how foreign policy would grind to a halt without secretaries to handle money transfers or arms shipments; and how women are working in hotels and factories around the world in order to service their governments' debts.… Read More
