Vanity Fair (Illustrated by Charles Crombie with an Introduction by John Edwin Wells)
First published serially from 1847 to 1848, "Vanity Fair" is William Makepeace Thackeray's most famous work in which the author reflects his interest in deconstructing the notions of literary heroism of his era. It is the story of Becky Sharp and Amelia Sedley, who have just completed their studies at Miss Pinkerton's Academy for Young Ladies and are beginning to embark upon the world. The simple-minded nature of Amelia, who comes from a wealthy family, is contrasted with the strong-willed nature of Becky, who will stop at nothing to climb the social ranks of English society. The novel takes its name from John Bunyan's "Pilgrim's Progress", one of the most famous work of Thackeray's day, in which a town called Vanity is depicted to represent man's sinful attachment to worldly things. Set against the backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars, "Vanity Fair" is Thackeray's classic satire of the societal trappings of Victorian England, self described as a novel without a hero. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper, includes an introduction by John Edwin Wells, and illustrations by Charles Crombie.
The Reminiscences of Adm. Edwin J. Roland, USCG (Ret.), vol. I
After graduation from the U.S. Coast Guard Academy in 1929, Roland's earliest assignments were as gunnery officer on board the destroyers USCGD Shaw (CG-22) and USCGD Wilkes (CG-25), which were involved in the suppression of smuggling. From 1934 to 1938, he taught at the Coast Guard Academy and was assistant football coach. Later duties included serving as commanding officer of the cutter USS Nemesis (WPC-111) and as Commander Escort Division 45, which escorted convoys to the Mediterranean. In 1944 Roland became CO of the cutter USS Mackinaw (WAGB-83), handling icebreaking in the Great Lakes to permit Navy vessels and cargoes of freight essential to the war effort to navigate in those waters. He was chief of staff at the 9th Coast Guard District in Cleveland from 1946 through 1949, and then Commandant of Cadets at the Coast Guard Academy. Volume I concludes with a discussion of his assignment to the National War College in 1955. Volume II follows Admiral Roland's career after he completed his courses at the National War College. He was then assigned as Deputy Chief of Staff at Coast Guard Headquarters. After that followed duty as Commander, First Coast Guard District, Boston, and in 1960, Commander, Third Coast Guard District and Commander Eastern Area in New York City. He was appointed Assistant Commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard in February 1962 and four months later became the Commandant. In discussing his tenure, he talks about his role in bringing Coast Guard forces to readiness prior to their employment in the Vietnam conflict and their subsequent involvement.
