196112847New York: Gold Medal 1961. 1961. First edition. First edition. PBO. GM s1146. Near fine in pictorial wrappers. The 15th Packer novel there were 16 all Gold Medal PBOs published by this talented & prolific writer in a period of less than 10 years--during which she also wrote and edited as Ann Aldrich a pioneering series of Lesbian nonfiction titles all but one of them published by Gold Medal. At their best Packer's crime novels--dark tales of psychological terror in suburban & small-town settings--compare quite favorably with those of David Goodis for example or her one-time housemate Patricia Highsmith & deserve to be brought back into print. A number of them in fact were slated for publication in Barry Gifford's distinguished Black Lizard series before its sale to Vintage. Anthony Boucher called Packer "consistently the most sensitive & illuminating writer of paperback originals." No faint praise from a man who was an early champion of Jim Thompson's PBOs. This is the only book with the name Meaker for a character the author once said. Vin Packer is the pseudonym of Marijane Meaker. Cover art by Leo & Diane Dillon. When Maggie married him she knew that he was different. It was as though a part of him was kept hidden concealed warped. Only when the newlyweds moved to an isolated farmhouse did Maggie begin to realize just how different her husband was!!! Gold Medal, [1961]. paperback

Pasteur's paper: pp. 936-942 a. 142-150 and 1 engraved plate Maladies des Vins - leurs Fermets. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of these famous papers initiating Pasteur's renowned studies on wine and its "diseases" being his most importent papers on wine."In December 1863 Pasteur published the first of the papers that culminated in his Études sur le vin 1866; 2nd ed. 1873. In that first paper dealing with the role of atmospheric oxygen in vinification he sought to establish that the aging of wine resulted from the slow penetration of atmospheric oxygen through the porous wook casks into which new wine was decanted. By virtue of this slow oxidation he claimed new wine grows less harsh and acid to the taste as it becomes clearer and lighter from the to the taste as it becomes clearer and lighter from the precipation of dark coloring matters. In his second paper January 1864 Pasteur examined the "alterations" or "diseases of wine especially wine from the Jura his native department. Reviewing the familiar disease of "turned" "acid" "ropy" or "oily " wine he associated each with a microscopic organism. He summarized the results of his first two papers by nothing that "wine which is proudced by a cellular vegetation acting as a ferment namely yeast is altered only by the influence of other vegetations of the same order; and once removed from the effects of their parasitism it is made or matured principally by the action of atmospheric oxygen penetrating slowly through the staves of the casks."DSB. </em> unknown
