Book Description
Suspicious events doom the fate of an innocent woman accused of murder.
Download Description
Beautiful young Elinor Carlisle stood serenely in the dock, accused of the murder of Mary Gerrard, her rival in love. The evidence was damning: only Elinor had the motive, the opportunity and the means to administer the fatal poison.
Yet, inside the hostile courtroom, only one man still presumed Elinor was innocent until proven guilty: Hercule Poirot was all that stood between Elinor and the gallows¿

My Favorite Christie.......2007-04-10
Of all the Agatha Christie books I've read, this is my very favorite. It is the most beautifully written of all her mysteries, and the story is tragic and beautiful. Elinor Carlisle is on trial for the murder of her deceased aunt's ward, Mary. She is the ideal suspect because she was in love with Roddy ? (forgot his last name) who fell in love with Mary when he met her, though he was engaged to Elinor. And Hercule Poirot is appointed by this doctor who loves Elinor to try and get Elinor not convicted. The end is truly surprising and there is pretty much NO WAY you can find out who the true killer is unless you look in the back of the book. The way Christie tells this story is just truly amazing. And the poem in the beginning by Shakespeare makes everything even better. I really can't describe this book with justice. It's just beautiful, truly tragic and beautiful. I cried.
A Little Known Christie Classic!.......2004-07-27
This book is one of Christie's less well-known ones. I know that I had not read it until now, and I thought I had gotten through all of Agatha Christie's Poirot books. But it is a wonderful mystery story, and written in the true Christie fashion. There are more twists and turns in a seemingly simple murder case than a small country road. This book starts with the premise that only one person could possibly have killed the young girl, and Hercule Poirot is brought in to at the very least, not have the murderer's sentence extend to capital punishment. But in true Hercule Poirot fashion, he finds out that even though it looks like only one person could have done it, there were in fact more options than that. As I reread some of the Agatha Christie classics, I am overwhelmed by her craftsmanship. She is the true queen of crime, and no one has taken over that mantel yet.
Decidedly a neglected classic; amongst Christie's best........2004-07-05
Sure, there is always Ten Little Indians (also the best!!!) and Cards on the Table. But this one is very neatly plotted that - as it was with every other Christie - you can never expect what will surface just as soon as you thought you had it all figured out. Here, although the great Dame herself claimed would not revert to using Freudian complexes, she used a few here, perhaps unintentionally. And when the end of book one, you can't help but thinking that only one person can commit the murder under those given circumstances. Read it!
she did a good job...again.......2004-05-03
Before i read this book,little i know that this book could be a fast moving mystery book.the book is about a mystery surrounding one family of a poor woman who has been convicted with murder.but for the obvious reason(whodunnit),she is the most unlikely person to kill the victim...and the story goes on how hercule poirot investigates the murder to assist an innocent party....this book must be put on your upper shelf!!!
A poisoned love triangle.......2004-05-02
This 1939 novel has been compared to the 1930 STRONG POISON by Dorothy Sayers. Both novels begin with the courtroom observations of a young woman accused of murder by poisoning. Both young women are befriended by a young man who sets out to clear her of the crime and fall in love with her in the process. Christie's rescuer is named Peter Lord while Sayers' is, of course, Lord Peter. Even with these similarities the two stories, although both excellent, are vastly different.
Elinor Carlisle had an understanding with her cousin-by-marriage Roderick Welman, that one day they would wed, live happily in their mutual Aunt Laura's country house with her considerable fortune somehow split between them. The plan suited them all, Elinor, Roddy and Aunt Laura. Aunt Laura was now in failing health and was being cared for by nurses, her servants, a doctor and Mary, a young woman who had grown up on the estate and of whom Aunt Laura had always been quite fond...perhaps too fond for Elinor and Roddy's own good.
Aunt Laura died, not to anyone's surprise but had left no will, much to everyone's surprise. As her only living blood relative Elinor inherited everything - lucky Elinor! Except Mary was so lovely, and Roddy so smitten with her that the engagement was called off. Then Mary died, of poison and Elinor was the only one of could have committed the crime.
Dr. Lord made an impassioned plea to Hercule Poirot to prove Elinor innocent - if she was in fact innocent. Poirot reluctantly agrees and begins to sort through motives, love affairs and long buried secrets to arrive at the truth.
The opening is dramatic altough it causes the problem of making the most sympathetic character, Mary, known to the read as the victim. The questions remain, however, of who did it, why, and how for the reader to try to puzzle through before Poirot reveals all.

Black Butterflies: A Flock on the Dark Side
ASIN: 158881016X |
Book Description
Darkness can be divided—it can be split like an atom, and in it can be found a destructive fire—or light. Light, too, can be folded into darkness.
The stories brought to light in John Shirley's stunning DARKNESS DIVIDED -- most of them never before collected, some written especially for this book--are presented in two sections: one featuring stories set in the present, or the past, the other set in myriad futures. These dark tales of new noir, science fiction, fantasy, and crime, demonstrate humankind's evolution from where we were and where we are, to where we have yet to be. Shadows are a current—a continuity—streaming from "Til Now" into "And Soon."
John Shirley incisively explores human nature and the pitch-black streak within the soul that each of us fears. The twenty-two excursions collected here divide the darkness with scalpel-like precision, daring you to peek inside. In these divided shadows, in the shift of diffuse light and occlusion, things move--things that aren't there. There you will find your own id, the dark side of your own imagination.
Read these words, and be forever changed by what you find.
Book Description
Why is it that despite our best efforts, many of us remain fundamentally unhappy and unfulfilled in our lives? In this provocative and inspiring book, David Richo distills thirty years of experience as a therapist to explain the underlying roots of unhappiness—and the surprising secret to finding freedom and fulfillment.
There are certain facts of life that we cannot change—the unavoidable "givens" of human existence: (1) everything changes and ends, (2) things do not always go according to plan, (3) life is not always fair, (4) pain is a part of life, and (5) people are not loving and loyal all the time. Richo shows us that by dropping our deep-seated resistance to these givens, we can find liberation and discover the true richness that life has to offer. Blending Western psychology and Eastern spirituality, including practical exercises, Richo shows us how to open up to our lives—including to what is frightening, painful, or disappointing—and discover our greatest gifts.
Customer Reviews:
One copy in every household.......2007-08-12
Upon completing the book I knew it was one which should occupy the shelf in all households.
David Richo is able to walk the reader through every-day, real-life issues with ease. We are liberated to a new level by learning how to embrace the things we cannot change,and learn the wisdom to know the difference (as the Serinity Prayer states).
I wish all my friends and family would read this!.......2007-06-12
I think this is a very important book. I think that people would be much happier if they read this book, and accepted the Five Things We Cannot Change.
This book is about life and how it works. It's about not getting upset over the way life works, because... well, that's the way life works.
This book really helped me see more clearly what life is about and how life works, and in understanding this, I can be more at peace and more accepting of the things that happen in life.
Someone once said that it isn't what happens to you in life, but how you respond to what happens to you. This is so true, and if you really think about it and respond the right way, this will help you tremendously in life. "It's not the cards you're dealt but how you play them" is another old saying that means the same thing.
Why so negative? Here's the flipside!.......2007-03-24
How about believing the same things - but from a POSITIVE perspective instead??? See below!
1. Every ending is really just a the start of a new beginning.
2. Sometimes things take an unexpected turn for the better!
3. Life is sometimes fair...sometimes confusing!
4. Pain is a part of life, but only one part of life.
5. Most people are loving and loyal most of the time.
He really should have titled this book - 5 negative thing that will prove why accepting the negative does not bring positive change or happiness. A simple book - a mistaken perspective.
Should be re-titled as 5 things about life that are sometimes good things and sometimes disappointing.
But isn't that what LIFE is?
One of the best books I've read this year........2007-01-11
I happened to pick up this book just before a family crisis occurred and ended up reading it a few pages at a time over the next several months as the crisis unfolded. The book turned out to be a great companion during that time by helping me handle a very challenging and trying situation much better because I understood the "five things" (people are not always loving and loyal; all things change and end; pain is part of life; things don't always turn out the way you plan; and life isn't always fair) listed in the book better and had a clearer idea of what I personally needed to do to feel good about myself when it was over. I can easily say that reading this book changed me for the better as a person and has helped me handle all sorts of trials more easily.
Psychobabble Baloney.......2006-11-14
Don't waste your money on this book. Just a bunch of psychobabble baloney.
From the Publisher
The Back-Country Kitchen will appeal to all outdoor enthusaists who prepare meals in the wild. It contains over 150 tested, unique recipes including camp breads, hearty chowders, easy one-pot main dishes, and adaptations of international favorites as well as a special chapter on preparing fish and game at camp. Emphasis is on easy-to-pack, easy-to-prepare lightweight foods. Many recipes use dried foods that are readily available at grocery stores or camping stores; complete, easy instructions for home drying are also included. Cooking methods are explained thoroughly, so even the novice cook is assured of success.
The Back-Country Kitchen was written by Teresa Marrone, whose previous writing credits include two other outdoor cookbooks as well as
Outdoor Life. An avid outdoors enthusiast, Teresa spends many days each year camping and cooking in the back country, from the hills and high desert plains of Wyoming to Minnesota's Boundayr Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.
Customer Reviews:
Superb handbook for the outdoor enthusiast who is packing light!!.......2006-06-27
This is a superb compact cookbook for those who enjoy the outdoors and like eating home cooked eat'en while enoying the great outdoors! Well organized with easy read rating icons, this book lets you know at a glance what and how much preparation is needed to cook and serve each dish, the best and alternate cooking techniques, required grocery store ingredients, or baked at home recommended instructions. I enjoyed this book because we camp alot and I'm always looking for ways to cut down on our baggage, clutter, and weight. This book was worth it's weight in gold! It benchmarks most of it's recipes on dried foods or powder substitutes. It suggests premeasuring and placing in marked baggies ingredients to meal preparation. Weight cutting measures, such as, using powdered milk, powdered eggs, and dried ingredients can dramatically size down the amount of uncut or bulk items! This cookbook would be best matched with someone who owned and master a dehydrater, altough, it isn't necessary for most of the recipes. One can pick and choose the ingredients to dry and supplement based on their space or carrying capacity and purchase those ingredients at a grocery store near your camping location. The recipes included are basics and should give you enough to work with to possibly create your own renditions! Included are rehydrating techniques to use at camp for those lightweight dried ingredients to bring them back to life at the campsite. This book is compact, it does have a few pictures, some color, but small sized to accommodate the hand size of this must have trail and camping cookbook.Don't miss these selected picks I've found to be worth the purchase, Campfire Biscuits, Upside-Down Sloppy Joes, Grits With Egg And Cheese!
RECOMMENDED!
Can't leave home without it.......2006-03-19
I started wilderness camping a few years ago and I have used this book for wonderfully tasty meals. When weight and space are an important consideration (portaging can be ugly) this book makes me look like a pro. Dehydrated store-bought food can be expensive and disappointing in taste and portions. This book has a simple approach to everything. I like the ease of preparation rating system, suggestions for packing the recipe as well as preparation in camp. Pictures make it easy even for a novice. I usually make a copy of the recipe and put it in the baggie with all the ingredients for the recipe. I like this book well enough to give it as a gift to our friends.
If I could only have one book on camp cooking, this is it.......2004-07-29
I read many reviews and purchased a couple of books on camp cooking, and if I were only allowed to have one, this is it.
When looking for books on camp cooking, one must align their type of camping with that addressed by the book. This book is subtitled CAMP COOKING FOR CANOEISTS, HIKERS AND ANGLERS. The rather varying needs of these types of people are well addressed. The canoeist, or someone camping by car, will carry more pots and pans than the hiker, but with over 150 recipes, all can find something. My wife and I currently only camp by car, but hope to start camping by kayak, and this book was right down our alley.
The recipes are good and are rather "normal" foods like you'd have at home. (Some camping books promote some pretty strange things.) The emphasis is on preparation at home, using ingredients that are light, easily packed and travel well. Most of the recipes require a little more preparation time and are more sophisticated than what you'll find in other books. (If you want quickly prepared, but plainer (stranger?), meals for hiking, see BACKCOUNTRY COOKING by Miller.) The opening chapters discuss the selection of camping food ingredients, and includes a substantial description of home drying which rivals the information in books devoted exclusively to the subject such as HOW TO DRY FOODS. You will probably find having a home dehydrator will be beneficial to get the most from this book. The author describes selection of camp cooking equipment such as stoves, cookware and eating utensils, and briefly discusses camping over an open fire, or with some of the camp ovens available, although most of the recipes are for a camping stove. Then there are ten chapters of recipes, such as "Soups," "Breakfast," "Main Dishes," and "Beverages." Each recipe is marked by icons indicating how many pots are needed, if the ingredients are readily available at grocery stores, whether it requires home drying, or if it requires canned foods. Clear black and white photos are interspersed throughout the book, and there are two sections of color photographs.
I found the first part of the book to be very valuable on its own. By knowing how to prepare ingredients for camping, such as clarifying butter, you can adopt your own recipes or dry mix foods for camping. I tried the upside-down sloppy Joes and beef stroganoff, and later, my wife informed me that mixes were available in the grocery store, so rather than collect all of the ingredients called for in the recipe, I adopted the prepared mixes. Unlike some other camp cook books that rely heavily on freeze dried foods sitting in some general store in the wilds of Colorado somewhere (or require mail ordering), most ingredients are available at the average supermarket (although despite seemingly having EVERYTHING by Knorr, my local Publix does not seem to have the mushroom SAUCE [not GRAVY] called for by the beef stroganoff recipe!).
If you only want one book on camp cooking, want to be rewarded with a satisfying meal, and don't mind a little preparation in camp, this is the book to have. It will take many years of camping to try all of the recipes in this book that interest us.
A must for anyone who likes to camp........2000-04-25
After a lot of research, I bought this book. From first glance, I knew I had the right book. Recipes run the gamut from simple and tasty Maccaroni and Cheese to more complex Sweet and Sour Chicken. The book contains recipes for breakfast, breads, soups, main & side dishes, fish & game, international, beverages, and desserts & snacks. One chapter covers equipment and camp cooking techniques. At just over 200 pages, it's chocked full of great camp cooking ideas.
Many of the recipes call for dried foods, some of which may be hard to find in smaller towns. However, there is a chapter that explains the basics of home food drying.
This is a great resource for anyone who enjoys camping. Whether you camp in a backwoods primitive camp or a more modern setting, you're certain to find plenty to enjoy from this cookbook!
A excellant book to start a back-country cooking libriary.......1999-01-28
I was looking for a book to start out a libriary for back-country cooking. I stumbled upon this one. I even use these recipes at home and they are very good, so you can amagine how good they taste on the trial. Simple and easy to prepare from start to finish.
Book Description
This book provides advice about species selection, tank setup, maintenance, and the best way to achieve breeding success.
Customer Reviews:
Good, but not great........2006-05-16
Good starting point if you are into livebeares.
The issues are not dealt with in depth. There is somehow a disconect between the title of the sections and their content, which makes it hard to find things that you read afterwards.
The style is more romantic than scientific.
If you are looking for specific, advanced info, look elsewhere.
The pictures are very nice!

Customer Reviews:
Do not spend money on this -- no, really, please.......2006-09-13
Buy something else off this wonderful website, treat a loved one to a drink, call one of those hotlines and feed Sally Struthers and some poor child in Ethiopia for a month -- but, I implore you, do _anything_ with the $6.95 you've got burning a hole in your pocket except buy this kit.
First I must preface this review with saying that, while I am not the king of impulse buying, I do likely rank somewhere high up in its royalty. I am almost certain that I am single-handedly responsible for ensuring that my supermarket stays fully stocked with those horrible little manuals in the checkout line about palm-reading, shiatsu, feeding my diabetic loved ones and how to give the neighborhood cat Mrs. Teeples an emergency tracheotomy and rescue breathing if she suddenly chokes on her kibble. It runs in my family -- I have relatives with stockpiles of these things. I can't help it. It's congenital, like heart problems or certain social diseases.
In any case, the "Four-Leaf Clover Kit" (herein known as the "FLCK", partly out of shorthand convenience and partly because it's one letter away from what they did to me when they took my seven bucks at the register) was yet another one of these impulse buys, this time at a local chain bookstore. When I first bought the kit, I was absolutely delighted -- the prospect of being able to grow my own four leaf clovers! A box of my own luck! And, oh, what a cute little box it was. I spent the entire drive home cooking up a fantasy about how positively fashionable and chic I would be with a bundle of four-leaf clovers growing on my coffee table. I even decided to take the little plastic pink flamingoes from the very similar and quite adorable Pink Flamingo Gift Set and stick them in the dirt in an effort to create a veritable microcosm of kitsch. I congratulated myself on my overall tack brilliance and fortune for a good find. After all, if you're going to be tacky, you've got to be tacky right -- and the FLCK with some flamingo magic appeared to be ready to do that trick marvelously.
What the folks that make the FLCK don't appear particularly keen on you knowing (and, by you, I mean me) as their potential customer is that this kit DOES NOT CONTAIN ALL FOUR-LEAF CLOVERS. In fact, it's almost certain that this little box won't contain any four-leaf clovers at all. Squirreled away microscopically on the back of the box is a little asterisked whimper of don't-sue-us-please hinting at the truth: "Some seed packets may not yield a four-leaf clover." The part that they neglect to hint at (although perhaps I've missed it and they've managed to come up with even tinier print and engraved it on the surface of one of the clover seeds -- I doubt it but quite frankly I lack the proper magnifying equipment to say for sure) is that, according to a very nice lady with a botany Ph.D. at the University of Illinois, only roughly one out of every ten thousand white clovers -- the very kind these folks are wanting your seven dollars for -- will have four leaves and that there's no real way to guarantee clovers of the four-leaf variety because, honestly, nobody really knows why we have them in the first place. My personal version of the FLCK has roughly 300 seeds in it, and, assuming all of the seeds germinate which is completely improbable, the math becomes pretty straightforward at this point: I'd have been better off buying a lottery ticket and managed to waste seven dollars on a box full of something that's growing in almost every lawn in North America.
To be fair to the company that makes this (and perhaps fairer than they deserve), squirreled away in print Siberia on page 19 of the tiny book that comes in the package there is a note explaining that these seeds have not been genetically altered and that I'll "just have to wish hard and hope that good luck comes [my] way." That would have been fine had I known what I was buying, but the packaging appears built to deceive: there are more four-leaf clovers printed on the one box I own alone than I'd imagine the company has ever managed to produce in the first place.
So, please, I beg of you, until the fine folks marketing this thing get around to changing the name to something along the lines of the "Seven-Dollar Three-Leaf Clover Kit That Has a Negligible Chance of Growing One of Your Clovers with One Extra Leaf" (although I'll be the first to admit that SDTLCKTHaNCoGRoYCwOEL just doesn't have the same ring to it) please don't encourage them and take that seven dollars to someone else. After all, Sally Struthers could really use a meal these days. And after she's done, so could one of those kids in Ethiopia -- the ads don't say it, but I'm sure they'd agree: even starving children can't eat clovers for dinner.

THE book on THE printmaker.......2001-06-27
If you're interested in the prints of Martin Lewis, this is THE comprehensive catalog of his remarkable works. Considering it's price, it's probably not for the casual browser but, for real fans of Lewis' work, it is not only an indispensible reference work but also a handsome compendium of the artists printmaking output. If you enjoy 20th Century American prints, you'll love this book.
