Sherlock Holmes - The Baker Street Archive

Sherlock Holmes - The Baker Street Archive

Mark Mower

MX PUBLISHING
2022
pokkari
Following the success of the earlier volume, The Baker Street Epilogue, we have another collection of previously unknown Holmes and Watson tales to excite the interests of readers across the globe - The Baker Street Archive.A decade before his death, Dr. Watson let it be known that with his passing he wished his nephew, Christopher Henry Watson MD, to be the executor of his will and guardian of all his personal and pecuniary affairs. One of the tasks he sanctioned was that his nephew should use his discretion in selecting for publication some of the three dozen or so cases involving Holmes and Watson which had not already seen the light of day.The six stories in this new volume are more overlooked gems. From the seemingly supernatural challenge of The Neckar Reawakening to the seasonal conundrum of The Yuletide Heist, there is, as ever, much to entertain and enthral us.As before, all of these tales are designed to contribute in some small part to the lasting memory of two extraordinary men who once occupied that setting we have come to know and love as 221B Baker Street. Once more, 'The game is afoot '

"The Flight of Pony Baker" is a novella written by William Dean Howells, an American realist author, and literary critic. This work was first published in 1902. Howells is known for his keen observation of American society and his portrayal of ordinary people in everyday situations. The story revolves around a young boy named Pony Baker who is living in a small American town. Pony's father is a prosperous lawyer, but the family faces financial difficulties. When the Bakers decide to move to Boston in search of better opportunities, Pony is torn between the familiarity of his hometown and the prospect of a new life in the city. As the Bakers settle in Boston, Pony experiences the challenges of adapting to urban life and the stark differences between the small town and the bustling city. The novella explores themes of change, the impact of societal expectations, and the contrast between rural and urban environments. "The Flight of Pony Baker" is a reflection on the transformations occurring in American society during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, capturing the essence of the shift from agrarian communities to more industrialized urban settings. Howells uses Pony Baker's story to delve into the social and economic changes of the time, offering readers a glimpse into the experiences of individuals navigating this period of transition. Overall, the novella provides a poignant exploration of the human experience amid societal changes, all wrapped in Howells's characteristic realist style.

Letters to Miss Baker

Letters to Miss Baker

Jeremy Waxman

TROUBADOR PUBLISHING
2025
nidottu
When the Second World War broke out, Miss Daisy Baker of Kingsbury County School reached out to every former scholar serving their country. Two hundred Old Kingsburians replied, sending five hundred letters between them. Those letters survive – and they are the subject of this book. To read the Letters to Miss Baker is to follow those former scholars as they trained, travelled, camped, fought, were imprisoned and died in the struggle to save democracy. They may have expected to spend their working lives in London or its environs and might never have travelled abroad. Yet, from 1939 to 1945, they found themselves bumping into each other in the most unlikely of places; fighting in brutal, historic battles, whether on the western front, in the deserts of North Africa or amid the melee of Italy; flying missions to bring destruction upon the enemy, the odds stacked against them, flailing frantically to free themselves from blazing planes; guarding the high seas, shelled, going down with their ship; huddled in secret, decoding messages, providing vital intelligence to the Forces; even ferrying a Prime Minister around. Letters to Miss Baker is a tribute to those Old Kingsburians and to their remarkable teacher.

Bread for the Baker's Child

Bread for the Baker's Child

Joseph Caldwell

Sarabande Books, Incorporated
2002
pokkari
After nearly ten years, Joseph Caldwell returns to the literary scene with a rich novel of immense and resonant scope. With Dostoevskyian ambition, Bread for the Baker's Child sets out to probe the large questions of good and evil, culpability and sacrifice, and the meaning of suffering. In this tale of two lives immutably intertwined, Sister Rachel is a nun in a failing order, a painter with a history of madness, devoted to her dying Mother General. Her brother Phillip is an accountant serving time for embezzlement, a man capable of great violence and anger who has turned his back not simply on the church, but faith as well. They have nothing in common except for a shared childhood tragedy. Or do they? In this masterful display of structural precision, Caldwell slowly unravels the complementary nature of these two lives—at first glance hermetically sealed from one another—until their shared fate becomes a symbiotic relationship, as though they were two sides of the same coin, intersecting and reflecting one another. Through events operatic in tone and reach, Rachel and Phillip come to redefine our notions of love and kinship, and embody the human need for redemption and forgiveness. Marketing plans for Bread for the Baker's Child: • Author tour in Northeast area (New York City, Boston, Washington, D.C.). • Newsletter, brochure, catalog, and postcard mailings. • Advertisements in key literary and trade magazines. Playwright and novelist, Joseph Caldwell is the author of four previous novels, The Uncle From Rome, Under the Dog Star, The Deer at the River, and In Such Dark Places. He twice held the John Golden Fellowship in Playwriting at Yale University's School of Drama, and was awarded The Rome Prize in Literature by the American Academy of Arts and Letters. He lives in New York City.

Trial of Frederick Baker

Trial of Frederick Baker

David F. Green

Mango Books
2021
sidottu
On 24 August 1867, the remains of eight-year-old Fanny Adams were discovered in a hop field close to her home in Alton, Hampshire. She had been decapitated and horribly mutilated; her limbs and internal organs were scattered over a wide area. It was butchery on a truly colossal scale. Local solicitor's clerk Frederick Baker was quickly apprehended and committed for trial at the winter assizes in Winchester. Few people doubted that he was solely responsible for the murder of little Fanny Adams. Baker was a decidedly odd character, often seen skulking around town exhibiting a range of morbid and eccentric behaviours. His corpse-white complexion and black top hat composed his trademark appearance. This book charts his upbringing, his family life and career, and his depraved emotional and sexual impulses, fully exploring his progression from a weak and sensitive child to a swaggering, intemperate monster. Legal opinion was divided: was Baker mentally deranged, or was he a cunning, cold-blooded and wicked individual fully in command of his faculties? These issues would be examined in the courtroom, and in a sense, medical science itself, with its new ideas about psychological disease, homicidal mania and criminal responsibility, was also on trial. The defence offered a confusing and contradictory double plea of Not Guilty but also Guilty and Insane. The jury rejected both defences, and Baker was hanged outside Winchester prison on Christmas Eve in front of a large crowd. Baker has received remarkably little attention in the extensive literature on Victorian crime. Drawing on Home Office files and making use of a wide selection of local history materials, Trial of Frederick Baker tells for the first time the full story of the murder of Fanny Adams and the trial and conviction of one of Britain's most appalling villains.

Should bakers’ daughter want to marry princes? (Lucinda’s father didn’t think so.) Should kings and queens let princesses play with dragons? Should Orpheus have made so much of a fuss about his wife? Should Ben rely on Magic Eye creatures to help him find his mother in Brazil? Should Father Christmas retire and let us give presents to him for a change? So many questions—but these are the burning questions of the day, if you live in storyland. With children’s writers inventing new formats every day, Janina David has gone back to traditional forms—Grimms’ fairy tales and ancient legend—and matched classic themes and modern sensibilities to produce stories that feel as if they’ve always been around, just waiting for us to discover them. The Princess and the Baker's Daughter: Five Stories for Five Children is a collection of captivating tales intended for readers of different ages and different interests, but all linked by a common love of make-believe. Some have appeared in translation in overseas annuals and collections. One has been staged, to great success.

Secrets of a Waterloo Baker

Secrets of a Waterloo Baker

Moshpit Publishing
2016
pokkari
Long ago, in 1918, a small traditional bakery was built in the inner city suburb of Waterloo, Sydney. This was well before the tower blocks, the ice addicts, the trendy new apartments and the fashionable restaurants in Danks St. The last owners of Elma bakery were a Latvian migrant family who baked primarily rye bread (black, and sweet and sour) from old Latvian and Estonian sourdough recipes. The bread was highly prized and sent all over Australia, and the recipes were a closely guarded secret. This book explores what the secret of the bread actually was. Was it just the recipe, or did the milieu of Waterloo and its history contribute, or was it the Latvian background of the bakers? This is a book (with many photos) for anyone interested in old trades such as traditional bread making, and baking sourdough. It's also for the many new residents of Waterloo to gain an insight into its interesting history, from convicts to Bubonic plague to Green bans (which lengthened the life of the bakery). It's also for Australians in general to learn how migrants enriched their nation. It's a book for anyone who wants to hear the Waterloo baker finally reveal his secrets.
