The ghost story is by & large ideally realized as a short story or at most novella -- the greatest masters, such as M. R. James, never even attempted the novel form; & those who did both short stories and novels, such as E. F. Benson, only the short stories are of outstanding merit. At novel length they tend to bog down considerably or else descend into tedious gothicisms & inessential asides. But Falkner's THE LOST STRADIVARIUS is a perfect gem of a novel, a timeless tale of weird & awe inspiring ghostliness, easily in the top ten of Victorian ghost novels, in an unfailingly elegant style.

This book is worth its weight in gold for the military historian/enthusiast.It details how US Army Divisions and Brigades have evolved since the birth of the United States and is backed up by ample photographs and charts. You could spend months or even years trying to find out information on this topic and this book centralises all this in an invaluable reference. Well worth the money !

I would actually recommend this book more to designers and artists who are into 1960s scientific photos. Aside from that, there's load of great retro graphics! (grin).

is there a electronic version like pdf format in somewhere ??
how much does it cost ??

i,ve already the whole book and is a perfect way to learn biology whith a lot of images an clearly explained topics.

well , thats all, sorry about my english.

"The Papers of Ulysses S. Grant" is a project begun in 1962 for the purpose of publishing all the known letters written by Ulysses S. Grant. Volume one was published in 1967 and there are now twenty-four volumes in the series. People who follow Grant's career are aware of the inestimable value of this project. The Papers contain all known correspondence written by Grant and letters received by him. The editing of the series is unparalleled and the volumes represent primary source material at its apex.

Those who believe Grant was a "drunkard" or a "butcher" should read his own words, which show Grant's humor, pathos and unique personality. Masterfully edited by John Y. Simon, these volumes are a "must have" for anyone with an interest in U.S. Grant as a general, a politician and as a man
