2000008688New York : Warner Books c2000. 2000. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 1st. ed. 1st printing ; SIGNED by author on title page ; 341 pages ; 24 cm ; ISBN 9780446522991 0446522996 ; OCLC 43403470 ; LCCN 00022285 ; LOC No PS3557.R37562 L4 2000 ; brown cloth in pictorial dustjacket ; No parent ever expects his child to die young. So when Donald Sales's 22-year-old daughter is brutally murdered at law school he comes undone. In a fit of rage Sales tells the police that he suspects Eric Lipton one of his daughter's professors is the killer. And when the arrogant but brilliant Professor Lipton is found in possession of her bloody underpants Sales doesn't want the law professor in jail -- he wants him dead. Lipton's attorney is Casey Jordan. As a law professor Lipton knows quite well that anything he says to Casey cannot be used against him. Lipton adamantly denies murdering his young student and Casey believes him. To Casey the girl's father -- Donald Sales -- is a more logical suspect. His violent history makes Casey wonder if he is deranged by grief or by guilt. And when Casey discredits Sales on the witness stand and skillfully deflects the prosecution's attempt to connect Lipton with a series of similar murders Casey believes that justice is at hand. But then -- just as the jury hands its "Not Guilty" verdict to the judge -- Lipton leans over and tells Casey that he is in fact the killer. Then Lipton inexplicably disappears and more bodies begin to turn up. Casey must now decide whether to uphold her legal oath to protect her client.or join forces with an obsessed father who demands that a demented killer be brought to justice. --Source: Publisher ; Timothy Green was born in Liverpool New York on December 16 1963.

187730067London: William H. Harrison 1877. Very Good. London: William H. Harrison 1877. First Edition. Octavo 18.5cm.; publisher's purple pictorial cloth designed by Florence Claxton elaborately embossed in gilt and black all edges gilt black glazed endpapers; iv5-156pp. Cloth a bit scuffed and worn along extremities with brief exposure at corners and spine ends spine cloth faded brief split to rear joint rear hinge cracked but holding textblock slightly shaken in binding else a Very Good bright example. <br /> Inscribed on front flyleaf to the American medium "Mrs. Hollis Billing With the kind regards of The Author / November 1879. London."<br /> <br /> Scarce collection of humorous poems and vignettes by the British author and editor of The Spiritualist. Running in the London Spiritualist circles Harrison would presumably have made the acquaintance of the inscribee American medium Mary Hollis Billing and her husband who served on the 1877 Committee of the Theosophical Society in London. <br /> <br /> Contents only glancingly Spiritualist though true to form the imprint provides the publication date based on different calendars: A.D. 1877 Popular Chronology; A.M. 5877 Torquemada; A.M. 50800077 Huxley. Like many Spiritualists of the day Harrison was especially interested in photography and several pieces in this volume relate to the art and science of the form. Notably "The Lay of the Photographer" describes in nineteen stanzas the chemical transformations of pyroxylin iodine and silver to develop photographs. Needless to say the poem is not very good.<br /> <br /> Advertisements for the present work attribute the cover design to British illustrator cartoonist and fringe Pre-Raphaelite Florence Claxton 1838-1920. One contemporary reviewer aptly describes the book as "handsomely-bound and griffin-guarded" Liverpool Daily Courier. William H. Harrison unknown

Interior text is clean tight and unmarked. Pages are intact and tight to the spine. From the description on the back cover: ".Fully illustrated this first complete appraisal of Mignot's art reestablishes the prominence of a painter who all but disappeared from the annals of art after his death in 1870. Beginning with only fifteen known paintings the authors retraced Mignot's life and have identified as his more than one hundred paintings and sketches in private collections and museums.' The Landscapes of Louis Remy Mignot' showcases for the first time the full spectrum of Mignot's diverse body of work. Encompassing snow scenes in Holland New England farmscapes views of the English countryside and pre-Impressionist images of Paris his chromatically nuanced portrayals of open empty spaces ruined buildings and twilit skies reflect a melancholic sensibility that aligns him with intellectual romanticism." -- with a bonus offer--; .
