Hide and Go Seek / Going to St. Ives: (Inspector Timothy Fowler, Golden-Age Detective Mysteries)
Hide and Go Seek: Joan Pell checks into the Almeda, a quiet New York residential hotel, for a weekend trip, happy to be away from her government job in Washington, "typing and filing stupid routine reports." A gunshot from an apartment above soon sets her weekend on a very different path, as she becomes embroiled in the murder investigation of Lina Castle. Castle had registered under an assumed name, but Inspector Timothy Fowler clearly suspects others aren't telling the truth, either. Fowler takes Joan under his wing, but seems to be keeping a very professional eye on her. . . . One 1933 reviewer noted: "The plot is cleverly constructed, the book is neatly written and the end is a nice surprise. Could you ask for more?"Going to St. Ives: Miss Belinda Stebbins teaches English at a very proper girls' college near Philadelphia. Arriving in Baltimore to accept an honorary degree (accompanied by her cat, Emma), Miss Stebbins is just in time to see a man run out of St. Ives' Cathedral into the street, where he is hit by a car. Taking refuge in the cathedral, she faints, reviving only to find herself in the presence of a corpse. What follows is a whirlwind of action and investigation. Miss Stebbins finds herself under suspicion, but with a certain New York police inspector in her corner, she might just find her way out. . . . From a 1936 review: "Colver Harris displays an ingenuity and a humor that will find her] a welcome addition to the mystery story writers."For more golden-age detective fiction, visit CoachwhipBooks.com.
The House that Jack Built / Murder in Amber: (Inspector Timothy Fowler, Golden-Age Detective Mysteries)
The House that Jack Built: Arriving in the peaceful vacation retreat of Witch Harbor, Maine, for their honeymoon, Timothy Fowler and bride get their first glimpse at what the locals called the House that Jack Built, "looming huge and dark and lonely on the craggy hill." It was a rambling old house, originally built by a brilliant physician, Dr. Albert Jack, so that he could perform his mysterious experiments in secrecy. The doctor was long gone, but the house and its secrets remained. An atmosphere of mystery and suspicious activity permeating the village comes to a head when a young girl is found murdered. A 1935 reviewer noted: "Mrs. Harris has handled her characters well and makes the 'natives' of the town recognizable. There is a novel aspect of the tale providing a momentum in the early chapters that increases in pitch until the end."Murder in Amber: Mr. and Mrs. Timothy Fowler are aboard the S. S. Orion, returning from a trip to China, when they find themselves once more at the center of a mystery, this one surrounding an amber necklace. From a 1938 review: "A necklace, a blood-stained knife, two notes from a dead man and a lump on the detective's head are among the baffling clues which Timothy Fowler, gentleman sleuth, has to go on. And it all takes place on board ship, just one night out of Shanghai. With good characterization and a clever denouement, this should prove interesting to most of the fans."For more golden-age detective fiction, visit CoachwhipBooks.com.

John Colter was a crack hunter with the Lewis and Clark expedition before striking out on his own as a mountain man and fur trader. A solitary journey in the winter of 1807-8 took him into present-day Wyoming. To unbelieving trappers he later reported sights that inspired the name of Colter's Hell. It was a sulfurous place of hidden fires, smoking pits, and shooting water. And it was real. John Colter is known to history as probably the first white man to discover the region that now includes Yellowstone National Park. In a classic book, first published in 1952, Burton Harris weighs the facts and legends about a man who was dogged by misfortune and "robbed of the just rewards he had earned." This Bison Book edition includes a 1977 addendum by the author and a new introduction by David Lavender, who considers Colter's remarkable winter journey in the light of current scholarship.

Conspiracy, Calamity and Cover-up

Conspiracy, Calamity and Cover-up

John Harris; Richard Wilbourn

Unicorn Publishing Group

sidottu
The Hess affair requires an understanding of a variety of disciplines and practices: Wartime aviation, political history and human psychology to name but three. Harris and Wilbourn have over an extended period tried to learn as much as possible about all relevant aspects of what is in concert a complicated subject, one that has not yet been satisfactorily explained even after more than 80 years. In the past there have been works that have concentrated on single aspects of the affair; usually in great detail, but in Conspiracy, Calamity and Cover-up the authors’ work on the individual components provides the best ever yet plausible explanation of the affair as a whole. Official secrecy on the grounds of ‘National Security’, obfuscation and downright lying have all played a part in preserving the truth behind the flight. Through dogged perseverance and endeavour Harris and Wilbourn now present what they believe is the ultimate truth behind the affair.
Golf Ball Cover Story: What Every Golfer Should Know
This book is about the science and technology of golf balls. Many golfers don't understand enough about the modern golf ball to choose which ball they should be using. The author has reviewed the US patent literature from Acushnet Company, the maker of Titleist and Pinnacle golf balls, and has summarized the latest developments in golf ball aerodynamics, the various dimple patterns, the composition of the core and the cover, and why these issues are so important for golfers today. No one has ever written a book that summarizes what the original US patent literature teaches us about golf ball science and technology. The latest discoveries, which sometimes may be highly technical in nature, are written in a form and a style that is directed to the average reader. The chapters in Part 1 of the book are arranged according to the golf ball dimple pattern that appears on the surface of the ball. In Part 2 the chapters highlight what the author has learned about all the important golf ball models made by Acushnet Company, e.g., Pro V1, Pro V1x, NXT Tour, NXT Tour S, Pinnacle Soft, etc. This book is also a guide for those of us who collect golf balls as a hobby. Ways to accurately date vintage golf balls are discussed. Photos and useful information about the golf balls in the author's collection are presented and discussed. The average golfer, the professional golfer, and the collector alike will benefit from reading this book.
