Book Description

Elspeth McGillicuddy was not a woman usually given to hallucinations. But when she witnesses what appears to be a woman being strangled on a train and no-one else sees it, no-one reports it and no corpse is found she turns to her old friend Jane Marple to help solve the puzzle. Marple asks her highly efficient and intelligent young acquaintance, Lucy Eyelesbarrow to infiltrate the Crackenthorpe family, who seem to be at the heart of the mystery, and help unmask a murderer.

Old and new readers of Agatha Christie's whodunits will not be disappointed with her 1957 puzzler. It has an unforgettable opening sequence, an ingenious denouement, and an interesting sleuth, especially created for the occasion, named Lucy Eylesbarrow. Although it is the elderly Jane Marple who exerts her powers of detection, she does it by remote control while her much younger friend does the spadework - or the domestic work. As Agatha Christie explains, "The point about Lucy Eylesbarrow was that all worry, anxiety, and hard work went out of a house when she came into it." Accordingly, the tertiary-trained domestic, Lucy, is soon installed in Rutherford Hall, where Jane Marple believes a body thrown from a train might be hidden.

Surprises, further murders, gossip, marriage proposals, and poisonings follow in rapid succession, so that before you know it, the hours have sped by, the murderer is revealed, and you admit that once again you were quite unable to guess whodunit.

Agatha Christie adds to the usual cozy elements of her murder mysteries a heavy involvement with passenger trains, timetables and railway matters so beloved of the British. Otherwise you'll find the book fits into the pattern of the dysfunctional family's struggles being worked out with a particularly stubborn, callous and crusty old man as the family's head.

Feature film and TV adaptations of this novel have been made, the most faithful to the text featuring Joan Hickson who also can be heard in an unabridged reading on audiotapes.

4.50 to Paddington takes a while to get started with much of the book centered around trying to decide if a murder actually took place. Once that it's decided that a murder did take place the plot picks up and the rest of the book reads more like a typical Agatha Christie.

Elspeth McGillicuddy had spent a busy day Christmas shopping in London so when she settled into her comfortable 1st class train compartment on her way to visit her friend it was natural that she dozed off for a few minutes. It was most unsettling that she woke up just in time to see a murder being committed in a passing train. It was understandable that the train conducter did not believe this elderly lady's fantastic story. It was fortunate that Mrs. McGillicuddy's friend was none other than Jane Marple.

Miss Marple believed her friend was not imagining whole thing. When the police found no evidence of the crime Miss Marple began to investigate for herself. She located the most likely place a body could be disposed of, a large estate owned by the Crackenthorpe family and arranged for a confederate, Lucy Eyelesbarrow to work for the family.

The Crackenthorpe family is another of Christie's large dysfunctional families dominated by a disagreeable father (Luther), downtrodden daughter (Emma), ambitious son (Harold) and a pair of blacksheep - the artistic Cedric and the slightly crooked Alfred. Two other siblings have died, Edmund and Emma. Emma's husband, Bryan and son, Alexander are also part of the household.

The body is found, more murders commited, the culprit unmasked and the true motive revealed in dramitic fashion by Miss Marple.
Along the way romance flourishes and leaves the reader with an unanswered question.

The family is very much like characters from similiar families in other books, (HERCULE POIROT'S CHRISTMAS, A POCKET FULL OF RYE, CROOKED HOUSE and others). This, coupled with the various titles this story has had over the years - WHAT MRS. McGILLICUDDY SAW, EYEWITNESS TO MURDER and MURDER SHE SAID, could lead a reader to think they had read this one before. Do not pass this one by, it is worth reading for the delightful Lucy Eyelesbarrow alone!

4 out of 5 stars Title Correction.......2004-02-26

This is a good Christie and fun to read, as most are. This little note is to all the American reviewers who despair the apparent title change from "What Mrs McGillicuddy Saw' to '4:50 from Paddington'.

Fact is that 4:50 is the the original title, as written by Dame Agatha. The rather lurid 'Mrs McGillicuddy' title is an American imposition. So for those to descry the idiocy of publishers and silly name changes...look to your own garden.

5 out of 5 stars Joan Hickson reads one of Christie's best.......2003-09-23

In the 1961 mystery-comedy "Murder She Said," Margaret Rutherford plays a feisty version of Miss Marple (an interpretation that infuriated author Agatha Christie) who takes a job as a domestic to solve a murder she saw committed as her train was passing another. Rutherford shared a scene or two with another character actress named Joan Hickson, who was to play Miss Marple in a series of television mysteries that were far more faithful to their originals than were the films. So if you have already seen the two dramatic treatments of "4:50 From Paddington" or (as it was called over here) "What Mrs. McGillicuddy Saw" and love comparisons, you might want to make a triple one with what Christie actually wrote by either reading the book itself or hearing an authoritative reading of it by Joan Hickson herself on an Audio Partners set on 5 audio cassettes or on 6 CDs.

In a houseful of potential murderers, the very interesting Christie character named Lucy Eyelesbarrow takes a position in order to find the body. As one commentator mentions, she is Christie's strongest independent woman to date and possibly in all of the mysteries. So where Rutherford simply was given a fatter role, the original story is that of Lucy with some fancy brainwork by Miss Marple, of course.

A very good entry in Audio Partners readings.

                      Book Description

                      Originally published in 1905 and long unavailable in an affordable format, The Life of Sir Aglovale de Galis is a psychological reconstruction of the life of a minor character in Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur, showing the dark underside of the Round Table. It is a Job-like tale of the rogue knight Aglovale, son of King Pellinore, and his path toward spiritual redemption. Written in the fine slow prose of contemplation, Sir Aglovale was Clemence Housman's third and final novel. It is also her finest achievement, a work of such impact that famed mystery novelist Ellis Peters called it "By far the finest work on an Arthurian theme since Malory."

                      5 out of 5 stars Malory would be proud.......2002-10-23

                      _The Life of Sir Aglovale de Galis_ is one of those rare birds, an Arthurian fantasy that really works. Call me jaded, but it was
                      refreshing to read an Arthurian fantasy not rooted in the
                      pseudo-historical Celtic vein that is currently drowning the market. This is a book that unapologetically hearkens more to Malory than any other of the classic Arthurian tales. Her world is very much rooted in Malory's anachronistic feudal Arthurian court as opposed to a 'realistic' 6th century historical setting. Despite this she manages to evoke a startlingly realistic medieval world that never really existed.

                      It was written at the turn of the last century by Clemence Housman (sister of poet A.E. Housman) who also wrote the short story 'The Were-wolf'. This Arthurian tale details the life and (hard) times of one Sir Aglovale de Galis, a minor player mentioned only once or twice in Malory, most notable for the fact that his two more famous brothers were Sir Lamorak and Sir Percivale. Sir Aglovale, as is often the case for elder brothers saddled with more prominent younger siblings, has a tough go of it and ends up becoming something of an embarrassment to the court of Arthur and his family. This is as much due to the fact of Aglovale's unflinching morality and truthfulness as it is to the more egregious errors he makes along the way, since he is unwilling to turn a blind eye to the rot that lives at the core of the Arthurian dream. Housman manages to play a careful balancing act with this aspect of Camelot. She certainly isn't a starry-eyed dreamer portraying an Arthur who can do no wrong, but on the other hand she doesn't allow the ambiguity of Camelot to completely destroy the dream that it represents. Rather we see the fallible world of men overshadowing the greater ideals that were supposed to pave the way for a new golden age. Aglovale is, in this world, both the best and the worst that Camelot has to offer.

                      The tale itself is a series of vignettes that follow Aglovale through the trials of his life, from an early flowering in his youth (soon overshadowed by Lamorak), the bad choices made later in life, to the final tragic end he meets. Percival and Lamorak play major roles in the story, as do Lancelot and the Orkney brothers, each displaying a different aspect of the life of Camelot (purity and idealism, temporal success and fame, courtly intrigue and violence) and thus we get a fairly well-rounded view of the court despite the fact that Aglovale spends little time there himself. Housman's characters are not cardboard cut-outs and display a wide-range of emotion and action while at the same time embodying these various aspects of the world in which they live.

                      The story covers a wide range of thematic issues from jealousy and love, anger and violence to mercy and forgiveness, success and failure, truth and falsehood, and faith and despair through the vivid and complex characterizations that Housman achieves. The language is also excellent, a conscious mirroring of Malory's archaism, though it may drive off some modern readers not familiar or comfortable with such a style. In effect Housman has managed to take the best aspects of Malory (poetic prose, a
                      conscious immersion in a violent yet idealistic medieval world, an anachronistic creation of a medieval England that never was) and combine it with a more modern complexity and narrative focus to produce what may be the best Arthurian retelling of the 20th century in novel form. The story is a moving one that is an unflinching look at human life. Harsh truths are not ignored or explained away, but neither is idealism rejected as a fatuous dream. Housman has thus managed something that few enough of the Arthurian re-tellers have managed: she has remained true to the core ideals and questions that are brought up by the source material while managing to put her own thoughtful spin to the material. I highly recommend seeking out this book (newly reissued by Green Knight publishing) and giving it a try.

                      4 out of 5 stars A Notable Reissue Of Arthurian Legend.......2000-10-10

                      Written in 1905 by Clemence Houseman, the sister of poet A.E. Houseman and playwright Lawrence Houseman, this is the tale of one of Arthur's lesser knights, the elder son of King Pellinore, who appears but briefly in Mallory's "Morte D'Arthur." In Houseman's story a seriously flawed character, the author uses Aglovale to portray the psychologically darker side of the Round Table, the envy and at times murderous contention for acclaim and recognition that haunts Arthur's court. A tale of individual and social spiritual decay, it follows the struggle of Aglovale to discover redemption when his actions have already damned him, not only in the eyes of his peers, but more importantly in his own estimation as well.

                      This is not a work that will appeal to everyone. The author has intentionally mirrored the writing style of Mallory, whom in the text she acknowledges as "The Master." The archaic, and some might say unnecessarily dense, style of writing is bound to deter the casual reader, while at the same time delighting fans of Mallory, and the narrative reads as if a lost chapter of the latter author's work. Nonetheless, for anyone who has loved the Morte D'Arthur, as well as the scholar of Arthurian romance, this will be a valuable addition to the literature surrounding the legend, and a book not to be missed. The publisher, Green Knight, who is devoting itself to the publication of out of print "classics" in Arthurian romance, as well as contemporary works of fantasy based upon the legend, has done a great service in reissuing this long unavailble title.

                      2 out of 5 stars it didn't help my mother.......2007-06-12

                      My mother has been suffering from anxiety attacks for several months and I got her this book thinking it would help her understand things better -- unfortunately, I think the way the book goes into the details of having an anxiety attack was too much for her and she started having more of them. She wasn't able to go beyond a certain point in the book and I told her not to bother.

                      My mother will be 80 in January, and these attacks scare her quite a bit (plus, she lives alone). I wouldn't argue the benefit the book may have had for other people, but I certainly think it's not going to be a "one size fits all" and much will have to do with the reader's personal situation and state of mind. Caution should probably be followed re: puchasing this book in situations involving the elderly and an already "fragile" mindset.

                      5 out of 5 stars If you want help helping yourself this book is for you..........2007-05-21

                      This is an interesting and informative book for those suffering from anxiety and panic attacks. If you or someone close to you suffers from panic and anxiety, and you are ready for a change, buy a couple of copies of this book. I have suffered from anxiety my whole life, I bought this book, read it and then bought a copy for my mother. It can help you change the attitudes with which you deal with your anxiety (or your anxious loved one) and show you the road to recovery. I have spent lots of money on phobia "cures". This book is not expensive AND it offers a plan that works. Can't beat that!

                      5 out of 5 stars Don't Panic Offers Clear Understanding .......2006-08-04

                      I have read many books on anxiety disorders having suffered from them myself. This is the best book I have read on the subject. It is clear and easy to read. It outlines the causes of anixety so you can stop anxiety. It is the only anxiety book I have read that did not jump right to prescription medication as being the only solution. It challenges you to go deep within yourself and your lifestyle to look for possible answers.

                      Since then I have had problems driving on the fwy alone.

                      The other incident is I became very ill and passed out in my home and was rushed to the ER. I had the flu, and became dehydrated. But because of the existing anxiety, this made me very anxious to be alone in my home.

                      This book was recommended to me by a friend who read it and really gave it a high review.

                      If you are suffering from panic or anxiety, I too highly recommend it. It has helped me tremendously. The author does a great job of helping you understand how panic affects you physically, then mentally. And really, your mind controls your body so if you do the work outlined in the book, it does pay off. I am doing really great now being at home alone with no anxiety. Next, I will conquer the freeway. I read it almost every night, and have made a notebook I carry with me for reassurance and guidance.
                      I know it's a nightmare to suffer from this, especially if you are normally a free-spirited, independent person. It's imprisoning to say the least.
                      So if you are suffering from panic or anxiety, please, give this book a try. I thought there was no hope, but there is.

                      4 out of 5 stars Different approaches.......2005-08-29

                      This was the best amongst all the self help-books that i used over the years. I also purhased The Don't Panic Self-Help Kit based upon this book and found it helpfull. It seems that different approaches are usefull to different people. Readers should also have a look at David Barlow and Michelle Craske's "Mastery of Your Anxiety and Panic" or MAP-3 self-help workbooks. Both Wilson and Barlow's work fall within the Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy approach with a success rate of between 70% and 90% in curing people from panic - as verified through empirical research.

                        This guide provides most of the nesscesary tools and tips to start your own horse business. Providing information that allows one to confidently pursue this venture. This book gave me the confidence to proceed with my business knowing all the facts up front. It allowed me to handle purchases and tax formalities without feeling like I didn't know what I was doing. Great starter book! I have read "starting you own horse business" by Mary Ashby Mcdonald. While her book is informative and gives examples not covered in the previous book, it serves basically to complement other books on this issue.

                                  This book establishes the first comprehensive system for evaluating potential identifications of persons mentioned in the Hebrew Bible with persons mentioned in Northwest Semitic inscriptions. It applies this system in detail to a small number of Hebrew inscriptions, the Mesha Inscription, and the Tel Dan stela. Appendixes updated through mid-2002 briefly evaluate potential identifications of over seventy-five biblical persons in over ninety Northwest Semitic inscriptions that are mostly contemporary with the person. Resulting identifications and nonidentifications appear in six categories of strength or weakness, from unmistakable to disqualified. The final product is the first extensive corpus consisting only of inscriptions that name biblical persons. This technical book will appeal to advanced scholars, graduate students, seminarians, clergy, and others who have a working knowledge of at least one Northwest Semitic language (e.g., biblical Hebrew) as well as! to all, including nonspecialists, who are interested in questions of biblical historicity.

                                              When you think of early Texas history, you think of freedom fighters at the Alamo and rugged cowboys riding the plains. You usually don't think too much about slavery in the Lone Star State. Although slavery only existed in Texas from the second decade of the 19th century to the close of the Civil War, the majority of early settlers came to Texas from other Southern states. When they moved westward, they brought their slaves with them.

                                              According to the 1850 census, 27.3 percent of the families in Texas owned slaves. By the 1860 census, that number had risen to 30.8 percent. These figures closely match the number of slaveholders in Virginia during that same time.

                                              When the Federal Writers' Project sent interviewers across Texas to find former slaves and document what their lives were like during slavery, they filed over 590 slave narratives, the largest collection of any state. The 27 selections in I Was Born in Slavery show that Texas slaves had their own distinctive voices, often colored by their Western culture.
