Book Description
Shakespeare was a lover of nature in all its forms, having gleaned his knowledge first hand as a youth in the Warwickshire countryside. This eloquent little tome is filled with selections of the floral and animal imagery from Shakespeare's comedies and tragedies, plays, sonnets, and poems. Whether the fleet English deer that run through Henry V or Oberon's "bank where the wild thyme blows," Shakespeare's plants and animals symbolize yearning, mischief, joy, rage, malice, triumph, passion, unrequited love. Enlivened with illustrations from an early Tudor pattern book, Shakespeare's Flora and Fauna is a pleasure to leaf through or to give as a gift.

The only book you need for Venice.......2007-08-12
This one book has everything--explanations, pull out map, and a useful dictionary. I bought other products and this is really all I need for Venice.
Book Description
An influential justice who refused to bow to politics and devoted his keen mind to the U.S. Supreme Court until the age of 90, Oliver Wendell Holmes (1841-1935) helped formulate some of the most progressive judicial thought in 20th-century American history. G. Edward White first sketches Holmes's early years-his childhood in Boston, undergraduate years at Harvard, and his valiant service in the Civil War, during which he was severely wounded three times. After the war, Holmes went into private law practice, wrote his landmark treatise The Common Law in 1881, had a short tenure on the Harvard Law School faculty, and spent 20 years as a judge on the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts before being named to the U.S. Supreme Court. The author focuses on his remarkable 30-year service as a Supreme Court Justice, beginning in 1902, and details Holmes's most significant cases--Abrams v. United States, Northern Securities Co. v. United States, Lochner v. New York, Schenck v. United States, and others--which limited working hours, set a mandatory minimum wage, protected women's rights, legalized labor unions, and defined freedom of speech. OXFORD PORTRAITS are informative and insightful biographies of people whose lives shaped their times and continue to influence ours. Based on the most recent scholarship, they draw heavily on primary sources, including writings by and about their subjects. Each book is illustrated with a wealth of photographs, documents, and memorabilia, framing the personality and achievements of its subject against the backdrop of history.

From the Publisher
Jukeboxes can "touch" you emotionally. Emotional response may be expensive. It is possible to pay several times more than a jukebox is worth. I did when I bought my first jukebox. The prices in this guide will help you avoid such extravagance.
If you want to buy a collectible jukebox, this guide will help you determine how much to pay. Jukeboxes start out expensive, get used for a few years and become almost worthless. After 20 or so years some become collectible and after 35 years a few become prized museum pieces.
Jukeboxes never really wear out unless left out. They are engineered as commercial units and are maintained by pros on a regular schedule. Jukeboxes are usually retired because of outmoded styling or obsolete technology. When a jukebox is retired it ends up in someone's home. It plays for a few years, is ignored for a few years and then spends a few years in the garage. Eventually it is sold to a dealer or collector or given to charity and begins a new life. Postwar jukeboxes are seldom "scrapped".
When buying "My First Jukebox" it is easiest to buy from a reputable dealer. Check the Yellow Pages and go take a look. If you have the dreaded "Collector Gene" this first purchase may lead to more jukeboxes. Some people have over a hundred jukeboxes, many over a score. If you do not succumb to Jukebox Fever, you will have a nice jukebox and someone to fix it. In a decade or so, when you tire of it, you will be able to get your money back even accounting for inflation.
If you are the "Prospector" type, you can advertise "Jukebox Wanted" in local papers and see what turns up. And, of course, read the Hobby Mag ads and go kick a few wheels. Buying this way is like buying a car from a private party: you are on your own.
A good way to buy a jukebox is at one of the many jukebox shows. At the shows all of the above applies with at least two added buyer advantages:
1. there is real competition to sell
2. there are many Jukeboxes
Although you have a price guide, the seller might not know the value of their jukebox. This can be good and it can be bad: sellers sometimes think their abominable jukebox is worth $25,000. Save yourself a trip by calling first and asking questions; especially, "How much do you want for it?"

Play that JukeBox music!.......2006-06-28
For essential descriptions, histories, and values of various makes and models, this jb afficianada recommends this *Always Jukin Official Guide to Collectible Jukeboxes* with its periodic updates. But it looks like a thin phone book and is printed in black and white on "newsprint" paper. So, for the "jump and jive" to bring alive the era of classic Juke, take a look at *American Jukebox" by Vincent Lynch and the Chronicle Books LLC Staff : a drop dead gorgeous color glossy photographic celebration of "the Classic Years" of American Jukes. Buy `em both for an excellent composite resource of these Grand Old Music Machines. /TundraVision
What a Price Guide Should Be.......2001-11-27
This book not only has all the regular features you expect in a comphrehesive, expert 'Last Word & The Word' by the world's leading Jukebox history & price student, but it even features a free yearly price update, so it never becomes obsolete. Considering how many of this book were printed & how few people in the world care about the Price of a used Jukebox, it is a good thing some price update was built into the formula: the print run will last at least 10 years & in that time the prices will be all over the chart. The author of this book is a genius. If you have even the slightest interest in Jukeboxes, you will be glad to have this book.
An absolute must for any one interested in jukeboxes!.......1999-05-14
What a great resource! This book is fulled with pictures, history and information; all designed to give the novice and the expert a true and futher appreciation of jukeboxes. Mike Baute has done an exceptional job of combining technical and informative context in one comprehensive guide. However, Amazon buyers beware!!! The price guide was not included in my shipment...however I called Mike, and he graciously sent me a price guide, a free copy of his newsletter and a nice note. His generosity and prompt attention to my request has made me even more enthusiastic about this book and the world of jukeboxes. If you have the opportunity, subscribe to the Always Jukin' newsletter...trust me, you won't be sorry! Buy this book, subscribe to Mike's newsletter and support a great resource. Once you buy the book...watch out! You will become a collector in no time!!!
The best up to date jukebox guide, a must for all jukers!.......1999-01-20
This book is much more than just a "Price Guide". It is a great review of just about all jukeboxes out there, and a REALISTIC value guide. The author did his homework, and the writing shows it. It is easy to read, very entertaining, lots of pictures, and full of info that any jukebox fan will find very valuable. It is a fantastic reference, I have worn one out, and am on my second. The best way there is to learn about jukes, which ones to lust for, and which to leave down in the dark basement where you found it. Buy it, you won't be sorry!
The absolute BEST resource for collectible jukeboxes.......1999-01-17
Full of information, photos, history. If this book doesn't mention and/or picture the type of jukebox you are looking for, it probably doesn't exist. Time after time again I have easily identified machines from the 1940's through the 1970's with accurate information. I was even trying to estimate freight costs for a Rockola Princess and found the weight and dimensions right in this book! Highly, Highly, recommended!
Book Description
In 1818, William Cattley succeeded in flowering one of the first species of the genus that would bear his name. These first cattleyas are the classic cattleyas, whose form defined the essence of tropical orchids for generations to come. Indeed, the color of their flowers became known as "orchid." In this helpful and informative book, each classic Cattleya species is described in fascinating detail, and its role in breeding programs is elucidated. All that is required to appreciate and grow the large-flowered cattleyas successfully is included. Cultivation, humidity and watering, fertilizing, propagation, and diagnosing and treating problems are detailed, making this volume valuable for both veteran orchid enthusiasts and those who simply love these beautiful flowers.

A brilliant, canonical text on gays and lesbians of color.......2001-12-31
This book is one of the first anthologies about gays and lesbians of color. If you can find a copy, do buy it. I found myself citing this book all the time for college papers. This book includes great articles about figures such as Audre Lorde and Arturo Islas. It has wonderful essays from up and coming academics such as Sharon Hom and Martin Manasalan IV. Even a decade after its release, this book will seem fresh and relevant. This anthology also does a great job of focusing on Latinos, Asians, and Blacks equally rather than tokenizing any group. Two big snaps for Critical Essays!
