For many people, museums play a part of life of the twenty-first century residents of the United Kingdom, either as places of education or entertainment. This book looks at the development of museums by utilizing images created during the heyday of the postcard, 1890s–1930s.

The Arthurian Legend was originally a lesson from history and a religious tract. This, in part, explains the enduring fascination with Arthur: did he exist? Is there a timeless and important moral or sacred wisdom in the story? In this version we find significant differences in the story we all know.

SENSORY SYSTEMS by Richard Parry, with essay by Luke Skrebowski

NOW AVAILABLE | Paperback | $26.00

978-1-910221-10-5 64 pages | 9.25 x 12 | Art

Sensory Systems documents an engaging group exhibition presented at the Grundy Art Gallery, Blackpool, England, in autumn 2015. The exhibition is the first in a new annual program by the gallery each fall that will revolve around the theme of light, and timed to coincide with the famous Blackpool Illuminations – a six-mile-long outdoor display of lights that has drawn many visitors to the town each year since it was first switched on in 1912. The exhibition and publication feature works by internationally acclaimed artists interested in the technology and science of light, and how this can be used to affect our perceptual experiences of space through sculpture, projection, or immersive architecture, and each artwork presented in the exhibition invited a dialogue with the viewer. The selection of prominent figures working internationally today who feature in the exhibition and publication are: Angela Bulloch, Rafael LozanoHemmer, Ann Veronica Janssens, Anthony McCall, and Conrad Shawcross. Among these, Anthony McCall was one of the early pioneers in the field, alongside figures such as James Turrell, Mary Corse, Robert Irwin, Carlos Cruz-Diez, and Dan Flavin.

OLIVER CLEGG by Martin Herbert, interview with Sina Najafi, and introduction by Matt Price

Featuring an interview with Sina Najafi, an essay by Martin Herbert, and designed by Dominique Clausen, this is the first major monograph on the British-born, New York-based artist Oliver Clegg. An eclectic, polyphonic, and multidisciplinary artist, Clegg’s oeuvre stretches from painting, drawing, and printmaking to sculpture, installation, site-specific art, participatory projects, and beyond. Indeed, his practice is in many ways a shining example of ‘postmedium’ creativity today, pursuing the essence of art itself beyond any specific medium or artform. The irony is, he’s pretty damn good with each artform too. With his erudite, surprising, and striking repertoire, and his diverse materials and methods (from glass, wood, and steel to neon, resin, and concrete, weaving and casting to engraving and industrial manufacture), Clegg offers the viewer a complex, sometimes playful, other times moving journey into existential and ontological notions of objecthood and matter, images and signs, language and communication, creation and being. Clegg’s oeuvre spans a significant proportion of the spectrum of human emotion, his unique trans-Atlantic blend of humor, sarcasm, and wit coming face to face with the much more serious matters of memory, psychology, truth, belief, meaning, love, life, and death. Nostalgia, childhood, games, play, and sentimentality career headlong into the realms of kitsch, Pop, and the history of the avant-garde, resulting in a delightful yet challenging range of responses from the viewer, whether amusement, camaraderie, joy, bemusement, outrage, disillusionment, or a call to arms. Clegg is an artist with great energy, incredible spirit, and one of the most engaging, curious, cryptic, and entertaining oeuvres currently making waves in the world of art.

BANGOR

Light of the World Ian Adamson

Bangor, once the site of one of the largest Christian schools in Ireland, was the jumping off point for the famous missionary journeys of Columbanus and Gall. The Bangor Antiphonary, which is now in the Ambrosian Library in Milan, was the flowering of a style and depth of worship with unique appeal. In his Light of the World Ian Adamson has combined literary skill and scholarship to describe how one of the main strands of European civilisation developed out of the Judeo-Christian tradition of the Middle-East and to bring out the full scope of how Bangor became the focus for religious life of great depth and power in the early medieval period of Europe.

FISHGUARD & ROSSLARE RAILWAYS & HARBOURS COMPANY

An Illustrated History Ernie Shepherd

SEPTEMBER 2016 Paperback | $34.95

978-1-78073-067-7 288 pages | NCR Trains & Transportation

At the height of its existence, the Fishguard & Rosslare Railways & Harbours Company owned a total of 104 miles of track in Ireland as well as just short of a mile of line at Fishguard Harbour. The Company is now jointly owned by Irish Rail and Stena and board meetings are still held once a year, attended by representatives of both organisations. When the author began his research into the history of this Company, he was of the view that there would be little to record, bearing in mind the comparatively short mileage and the fact that the Company has only been in existence for a little over 100 years, but as time has gone by it has become patently obvious that the history of the F&RR&H is a complicated one, full of interest and, at times, intrigue. To do full justice to the story, it has been found necessary to broaden the research beyond the actual Fishguard Company. For example, on the Irish side it has been necessary to begin the story with Brunel’s original schemes for railways connecting Dublin with Waterford and the latter city with Cork. On the Welsh side, the original South Wales Railway played an important part in the story, as did the line from Clynderwen through the Preseli Mountains to Fishguard. Many years of research by author Ernie Shepherd have produced this first history of the Company including some 80 plus images, most previously unpublished.

IRISH RAILWAY RAMBLER

The Railway Photographs of Michael McMahon Michael McMahon

SEPTEMBER 2016 Paperback | $26.95

978-1-78073-075-2 176 pages | NCR Trains & Transportation

44

This is a personal photographic memoir drawn from three decades of observation, starting in 1975, during what are now regarded as the “museum years” of post-steam Irish Railways. This period of great change saw the traditional infrastructure of mechanical signalling, travelling post offices, steam heating, goods services, and 19th Century station buildings etc. progressively give way to the utilitarian, electronic era. Train formations and their operation also changed beyond recognition as the locomotive and carriage combination was replaced by modern, anonymous multiple unit operation. The author was uniquely positioned to witness the closing years before regeneration changed so much. His early photographic locations were limited to stations and the line-side but he later made extensive use of Rail Runabout, Rover and Rambler tickets. Later he enjoyed the rare privilege of all Ireland footplate passes, leading to an estimated 80,000 miles of footplate travel between 1982 and 1995, an achievement that is probably, and will remain unique in the annals of Irish Railway enthusiasm. During these wanderings Michael met and made friends with innumerable railwaymen at stations, on trains and in signal cabins, exchanging news and views, and listening to stories from times past. These selected 230 images from his immense collection are a fitting tribute to the railwaymen and the railway of a bygone age, and to the fellow rail enthusiasts who so willingly helped along the way.

KING JAMES AND THE HISTORY OF HOMOSEXUALITY Michael Young

James VI & I, the namesake of the King James Version of the Bible, had a series of notorious male favorites. No one denies that these relationships were amorous, but were they sexual? Michael B. Young merges political history with recent scholarship in the history of sexuality to answer that question. More broadly, he shows that James’s favorites had a negative impact within the royal family, at court, in Parliament, and in the nation at large. Contemporaries raised the specter of a sodomitical court and an effeminized nation; some urged James to engage in a more virile foreign policy by embarking on war. Persons acquainted with the history of sexuality will find surprising premonitions here of modern homosexuality and homophobia. NOVEMBER 2016 | Hardback | $45.00 | 978-1-78155-543-9 | 264 pages | 6.25 x 9.25 | Biography Michael B.

There is very little published on Hypatia and she forms quite a niche market in the history of ancient Egypt. She is an interesting example of how multicultural Alexandria functioned, and provides anecdotal evidence of the atrocities that occurred. This book will appeal to scholars, lay people and political and religious researchers, and will show that the history of Egypt does not end at Cleopatra.

The East Coast of North America is a wondrous, intriguing, yet threatened coastline. It zigs and zags for more than 5,500 miles and assumes a multifaceted, jigsaw shape from the Arctic Circle and Greenland across the Canadian Maritimes, then southward into Maine, Cape Cod, New York Harbor, the Delaware and Chesapeake Bays, along the Outer Banks to Charleston Harbor and on to Cape Canaveral. It ends at the Dry Tortugas on the western tip of the Florida Keys near the Tropic of Cancer. East Coast: Arctic to Tropic is the perfect complement to West Coast: Bering to Baja, in which Freese explored the creation and dangers associated with the North American portion of the Pacific’s Ring of Fire. Together, the books provide a unique photographic and historical record of these two remarkably diverse Atlantic and Pacific Coasts at the very start of a true land-andsea change brought about by human use of fossil fuels. In East Coast: Arctic to Tropic, an extraordinary sequence of photographs tells the Atlantic tale and reveals an ocean that lies in wait.

AMERICA’S ENDANGERED COASTS

Photographs from Texas to Maine

OCTOBER 2016 | Hardback | $50.00

978-1-938086-43-4 232 pages | 12.5 x 9.5 | Nature Photography

America’s Endangered Coasts: Photographs from Texas to Maine is a pioneering and thought-provoking photographic survey of coastal areas of the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts of the United States that are already threatened by a rising sea. Using a topographic aesthetic that combines straightforward, highly detailed color photographs with GPS locations and elevations above sea level for each site, this book photographically responds to low-lying areas that are frequently over-developed and vulnerable to high tides and storms such as Hurricanes Katrina, Irene, and Sandy. This book contains 175 color photographs and two essays, one by Liz Wells, a prominent British writer who offers a photo/art perspective of the work, and one by Dr. James E. Hansen, based on his prophetic scientific understandings of the climate-change crisis and some ways to address it. America’s Endangered Coasts promises to make an important contribution to the world of photographic art and to the public’s awareness of climate change and its impact on everyday life. The book serves as both a warning of things to come and a photographic document of lasting historical value, since many areas that Ganis has photographed will be underwater by 2100. It is the first book of its kind to offer such comprehensive geographic coverage of representative areas along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts that are threatened now and in the future by a rising sea.

TAKE ME TO THE RIVER

Photographs of Atlantic Rivers

by Michael Kolster, with forward by Alison Nordström, and essay by Matthew Klinge

OCTOBER 2016 Hardback | $60.00

978-1-938086-42-7 240 pages | 11.5 x 12 Nature Photography

Take Me to the River explores four post-industrial rivers that flow into the Atlantic Ocean— the Androscoggin (Maine/New Hampshire), Schulykill (Pennsylvania), James (Virginia), and Savannah (Georgia/South Carolina)—as they emerge from two centuries of use and neglect. With vastly improved water quality in each river since enactment of the 1972 Clean Water Act, public affection has gradually increased as memories of foul smells and fetid water fade. Today, these rivers still carry the legacies of longstanding pollution in their currents and sediments, yet they have become waterways, renewed and rediscovered, that our grandparents never could have envisioned. The book comprises four portfolios of ambrotypes of these rivers, from source to sea. Three extensive essays offer different perspectives on ways of seeing and thinking about these places: one by the photographer on the collodion process; a historical view by Alison Nordström, the former Senior Curator of Photography at the George Eastman House, on the importance of Kolster’s work; and an environmental history of Atlantic rivers by the noted historian Matthew Klingle. Kolster’s dramatic yet understated photographs were made in a portable darkroom set up along the banks of the rivers with the wet-plate photographic process, a nineteenth-century method famously used to document the battlefields of the Civil War and the great vistas of the far American West. The chemical slurries that develop and fix the image on the glass plate mimic the movements of a river’s current, and the idiosyncratic qualities of the ambrotypes reference the historical coincidence of the dawn of photography and the industrialization of Europe and America. With consensus building about our changing climate and the extent humans are responsible, these four Atlantic rivers challenge us to set aside our usual blinders of seeing the landscape as either pure or despoiled. As the boundaries between the human and the natural are increasingly entangled, these rivers suggest how we might embrace, even cherish, places once degraded and ignored.

TIDAL RHYTHMS

Change and Resilience at the Edge of the Sea by Stephen E. Strom, with forward by Barbara Hurd

OCTOBER 2016 Hardback | $50.00

978-1-938086-45-8 176 pages | 10 x 10.5 Nature & Marine Life

Tidal Rhythms: Change and Resilience at the Edge of the Sea is a collaborative effort by photographer Stephen Strom and award-winning essayist Barbara Hurd. Strom’s images, taken along beaches in the Gulf of California and the Northern California and Oregon coasts, document a world teeming with ancient life-forms, clinging to rocks and finding nourishment but revealed for only a few hours before the tidal waters return. The primitive flora and fauna together create transient marine landscapes whose complex patterns resonate with what we humans perceive as beauty. Following the rhythms of Strom’s images as they travel between intimate portraits and expansive vistas, Hurd’s lyrical and philosophical essays both continue and complicate those cadences as she explores not just resonance, but also disturbance. As artist and writer move us from high tide to low tide and from the panoramic to the minuscule and back again, the reader is confronted with the larger issues of what happens as the seas rises, warms, and acidifies. Tidal zones are one of the first landscapes to be threatened—almost invisibly—by global climate change. Mussels, barnacles, and tidal pools are flung and ruffled or warmed and acidified in ways that stress the lives of those who live there. Shells begin to thin, species migrate north, and habitats literally disappear, yet few people are even aware of these amazing environments. Change, of course, is part of an ancient pattern. For billions of years, the sea has risen and fallen, and life-forms have managed to adapt or not. But the current pace of change confronts us with a new and urgent question: Can the long-established but delicately balanced worlds between tidelines evolve rapidly enough to enable continued sustenance and maybe even a new beauty? In Tidal Rhythms, we are given the gift of a new world-view.

CUISINE NIÇOISE Jacques Medecin

Nice may conjure up the very essence of sophisticated chic but its culinary traditions are all about simplicity, perhaps best expressed by an old Nicoise saying: ‘fish are born in water and die in oil’. Niçoise cuisine is the food of the Mediterranean. It is not only a delight to the palate, but is known to have many health benefits. This, Jacques Médecin’s legendary book, first published in 1972 and now reissued for the first time in Hardback offers an infectiously enthusiastic guide to the cookery of his city. As well as explaining how to make genuine salade niçoise (that most betrayed of Niçois dishes) he lures the reader into the wonderful enticing world of tians, panisses, socca, and ganses.

Vegetarians have often been discriminated against for their beliefs. So the history of vegetarianism is also a history of dissidence and revolt. Colin Spencer’s comprehensive book, reissued in Paperback for the first time in fifteen years explores the psychology of abstention from flesh and attempts to discover why omnivorous humans at times voluntarily abstain from an available food. The result is a thorough work of scholarship, entertaining in places, horrifying in others. The breadth of Spencer’s research is quite outstanding and makes for a truly erudite read. He begins in pre-history and ends in the present day.

They also showed an ambiguity towards Protestantism which was in stark contrast to the tyranny of kings. 61

This meticulously-researched book sets out in vivid detail the story of the conflict between Scotland and England in 15421560, one of the most violent and colorful episodes in British history. Powerful political, regional and feudalistic forces began to battle for the heart and soul of Scotland, while the great families chose sides. By the time it was all over the Scotland we know today had begun to emerge as the first nation in Europe to revolt successfully against the established church and a constitutional monarchy.

At the dawn of the Shogun era two mighty warrior clans, the Minamoto and the Taira, struggle for power under the Cloistered Emperor. The Taira are in uneasy control, but the three Minamoto sons, separated and exiled at birth, are secretly reuniting to conquer them and avenge their father’s bloody death. It is the youngest, Yoshitsune, who is deemed most worthy of possessing the family heirloom, the Sword of Hachiman, the War God. We follow Yoshitsune behind the scenes of the rarefied Cloister Court.

THE GLOBAL CITY

On the Streets of Renaissance Lisbon Edited by Annemarie Jordan Gschwend and K.J.P. Lowe

NOW AVAILABLE | Hardback | $60.00

978-1-907372-88-9 240 pages | 9.5 x 11 | Renaissance Art & Culture

Recently identified by the editors as the Rua Nova dos Mercadores, the principal commercial and financial street in Renaissance Lisbon, two sixteenth-century paintings, acquired by Dante Gabriel Rossetti in 1866, form the starting point for this portrait of a global city in the early modern period. Focusing on unpublished objects, and incorporating newly discovered documents and inventories that allow novel interpretations of the Rua Nova and the goods for sale on it, these essays offer a compelling and original study of a metropolis whose reach once spanned four continents. Lisbon was imagined as the head of empire, while the River Tagus became the aquatic gateway to a globally connected world. When Lisbon was destroyed in a devastating earthquake and tsunami in November 1755, these paintings are the only large-scale vistas of Rua Nova dos Mercadores to have survived, and together with the new objects and archival sources offer a fresh and original insight into Renaissance Lisbon and its material culture.

DECORATIVE TEXTILES FROM ARAB AND ISLAMIC CULTURES

Selected Works from the Al Lulwa Collection Jennifer Wearden

One of the most distinctive features of Islamic design is the evolution of an increasingly abstract and repetitive repertoire of motifs, which are shared among all media – metalwork, woodwork, ceramics, tilework and textiles. In textiles the main themes are based on angular and geometric shapes – vertical and horizontal striped bands; hexagons and octagons, which can be linked and infinitely extended; stylized and rhythmic scrolls of foliage and flowers; and Arabic calligraphy, of which the letters can be formed into continuous borders, panels and medallions. The exceptional collection published here ranges widely in region, material and technique. There are textiles and garments from North Africa, Syria, Arabia, Iran, Turkey and the Indian subcontinent linked by a shared vocabulary of ornament – evidence of the international nature of Islamic design. The strengths of the collection are concentrated in the textile production of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, which, thanks to the basically conservative nature of textile technique and design, preserve and continue the traditions established in the medieval Islamic world. They are important in an assessment of Islamic textiles both for their quality and as illustrations of survival and adaptation in a major industry.

CONDITION

The Ageing Of Art Paul Taylor

The paintings we see today in museums, galleries, churches and temples are often much altered by the centuries. Pictures can split, rot, be eaten by woodworm, warp, blister, crack, cup, flake, darken, blanch, discolor, become too translucent and disappear under a centuries-old varnish; and they can also suffer from the efforts of their owners to rectify these situations: they might be transferred, relined, ironed, abraded or repainted. Anyone writing about a work of art needs to establish at the outset how much it has changed since it was first made. This act of understanding is far from easy. A great deal has been written about conservation and restoration, but this is the first book to approach the issue from the viewer’s standpoint, and to discuss changes in appearance that affect our understanding and appreciation of works of art. This book is highly illustrated so as to make its points extremely clear. It should appeal to anyone with an interest in art.

ORNAMENT AND ILLUSION

Carlo Crivelli of Venice

Edited by Stephen J. Campbell and Nathaniel Silver

Accompanying an exhibition at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston, this catalogue explores one of the most important but historically neglected painters of the Italian Renaissance, Carlo Crivelli (c. 1435–c. 1495). His extraordinary success led to a virtual monopoly in the Marches, where he dominated the market for towering altarpieces and jewel-like paintings for private devotion in the second half of the fifteenth century. Pushing the boundaries between painting and sculpture, his works are distinguished by their radically expressive compositions, luxuriant ornamental display and bravura illusionism. Seven essays challenge the prevailing view of Crivelli as a provincial artist working in an anachronistic ‘Gothic’ style, investigate the remarkable facture of his paintings, and shed new light on his rediscovery by collectors. The catalogue reflects the iconographic range of his images. NOW AVAILABLE | Paperback | $50.00 | 978-1-907372-86-5 | 232 pages | 9.5 x 11 | Italian Renaissance Painters

Accompanying a major exhibition at The Courtauld Gallery, this catalogue explores a remarkable and unprecedented series of paintings by Peter Lanyon (1918–1964), one of Britain’s most important and original post-War artists. Lanyon sought to create a new vision of landscape painting for the modern era which might probe questions about the nature of our existence within the world. Lanyon’s gliding paintings stand as a unique achievement of twentieth-century art, reinventing and furthering the tradition of landscape painting in ways that can also be seen to engage deeply with the pressing existentialist concerns of the post-War world. This remarkable project was cut short by Lanyon’s unexpected death in August 1964. NOW AVAILABLE | Paperback | $40.00 | 978-1-907372-85-8 | 152 pages | 8.5 x 10 | Painting

The silver-gilt and silver includes pieces by some of the greatest names of English silversmithing – Paul de Lamerie and Paul Storr, but also by rarer more modern masters – Latino Movio and Omar Ramsden – masterpieces previously completely unknown to silver historians.This book will be of interest to specialists in silver, who will discover many masterpieces of style and technique.

AUGUST 2016 Paperback | $24.95

978-1-4738-5207-5 224 pages | 6.5 x 9.5 Victorian History

For a few years in the 1840s, Essex was notorious in the minds of Victorians as a place where women stalked the winding country lanes looking for their next victim to poison with arsenic. It is perhaps no surprise that people living through that troubled decade were captivated by the stories of the ‘poisoners’. This is a tale of how rural Essex, in a country saturated with arsenic, was touched by the tumultuous 1840s.

Helen Barrell has written for magazines and transcribed parish registers. While transcribing the burial register for Wix, in Essex, England she discovered that the story of her own family crosses over with the ‘poison panic’.

In Great Britain there existed a practice of naming steam locomotives. The names chosen covered many and varied subjects, however a large number of those represented direct links with military personnel, regiments, squadrons, naval vessels, aircraft, battles and associated historic events. For example, all but one member of the famous ‘Royal Scot’ class were named in honor of British regiments. In addition, the Great Western Railway renamed some of its engines after Second World War aircraft.

Train Doctor is the story of Roger Senior’s career in the railway industry, from 1968 when the author joined British Railways, until his retirement from Great North Eastern Railway. The book takes you from the 1970’s period, with its first generation Diesels, through to privatization in 1994 and the electrified East Coast main line. This will be of interest to enthusiasts and modern railway historians, with its inside look at the railway industry during a time of considerable change. This book offers insight into the trials and tribulations of keeping the railway running.

NOW AVAILABLE Paperback | $29.95

978-0-7346-7001-4 300 pages | 6 x 9 | Poetry

Entitled the Gulistan in its original Persian, The Rose Garden was written in 1258 by Saadi – one of the greatest medieval Persian poets. To this day an influential classic, this collection of poems and stories contains many insights still relevant in today’s world. This new translation seeks to stay as close to the original as possible.

Saadi – or Saadi of Shiraz –was one of the major Persian poets and literary men of the medieval period. Dr. Gholam Hossein Mahdavi Tootkaboni has been translating classic works from Farsi to English and English to Farsi for over 35 years 92

The writing of Chasing Antelopes was driven by the author’s frustration at the increasing resistance of the medical profession to new ideas. The author wants you to see how we are being manipulated by governments and industry giants to swallow the ‘opium pill’ and sink into a state of blunted unquestioning consciousness about so many health and environmental issues.

This version of Kalileh va Damneh is a translation from Farsi. This book has almost as many names, versions and tales about its own existence as some of the stories it contains.

THE GENIUS FAMINE

Why We Need Geniuses, Why They are Dying Out and Why We Need Them by Edward Dutton, with forward by Bruce Charlton

Geniuses are rare and exceptional people; but the great ideas, discoveries and inventions of human history, which have allowed the development of civilization itself, were the products of geniuses. The Genius Famine finds that a genius combines extremely high intelligence with a unworldly, intuitive personality. Geniuses will seldom fit-into normal society, they will seldom want to. And we shouldn’t want them to, because it is their unusual and socially-difficult nature which drives geniuses to come up with original ideas, and solutions to otherwise unsolvable problems. But modern society has been hit by a genius famine. There are ever-fewer geniuses and, to make matters worse, modern society has become actively hostile to those few geniuses we still have. The Genius Famine explores the nature of genius, why the genius famine has happened, how the famine will lead to the decline of civilization, and what we can and should do to overcome it.

ARGUMENTS FOR LIBERTY

A Libertarian Miscellany Jan Lester

Liberty is what libertarians advocate. Both because of the inherent value of human liberty and because of the increasing wealth and welfare it brings to all. They see the aggressive coercion of the state as the main enemy of liberty. The solution is to roll back the state until there is little or no state left. Libertarianism has been rapidly growing since the 1970s. But it is still not commonly understood or even given a proper hearing. However, you will increasingly come across it. Often it will be through state enthusiasts disingenuously claiming to be ‘libertarians’. At other times it will be through state enthusiasts attacking libertarianism as an ‘extremist’ ideology. And very occasionally it will be real libertarians explaining and defending their views. J C Lester is a libertarian philosopher who has been writing about why liberty is preferable to politics for about thirty years.

THE ENGLISHMAN

Memoirs of a Psychobiologist John Staddon

Although I have been basically an academic for most of my life, the way I got there has taken some surprising turns. The first four chapters of this memoir describe what I can remember and discover about my early life: an unsuspected ancestry, fun in WW2 London, comical schooldays, and a spell in colonial Africa interrupting a wobbly college career at the end of which I left England for America. In the US I followed again a slightly erratic graduate-school trajectory that ended up in a Harvard basement. The main part of the book is about science, my efforts to understand the world opened up for me by biology, Darwin, the evolving cybernetic revolution and the experimental methods of influential and opinionated behaviorist B. F. Skinner. I have tried to make this part as simple and nontechnical as possible, although a couple of graphs have intruded.

EQUAL PARTS

A Tale of Ambition, Politics and Passion Inspired by Actual Events Vicky Moon

JULY 2016 Hardback | $24.00

978-0-9617683-5-5

In the powerful, intoxicating atmosphere of Washington, D.C., Isabelle Benton Stoker, a stylish interior designer in Georgetown, falls in love with Johnathan Dent, a prominent and very married Virginia attorney. They spend many blissful evenings at out-of-the-way cafés and lunch-hour getaways in the iconic art museums of the Nation’s Capital. After all, if they were spotted together in a public place, who would suspect the handsome lawyer would take such a chance? When the leading candidate for a U.S. Senate seat from his home state is killed in a freak airplane accident, Johnathan Dent finds himself as the replacement candidate. He agonizes over an affair that could destroy his political ambitions, and perhaps even his career. Then again, maybe not. Gennifer Flowers, Fannie Fox and Donna Rice became famous for doing just that. Could Isabelle Stoker do the same? Equal Parts explores this classic tale of love and betrayal based on true events.

THE MIDDLEBURG MYSTIQUE

A Peek Inside the Gates of Middleburg, Virginia Vicky Moon

SEPTEMBER 2016 Paperback | $22.00

978-0-9617683-1-7 196 pages | 6 x 9 US History

This book is an inside look at the people, places, and mystique that surround this horse-crazy Virginia village. It reveals why “20118” is such a desirable zip code. Through the years, there have been scandalous stories of divorce, such as when actor Robert Duvall’s wife ran off with the “hunky” pool man; and murders among the rich, like when arms heiress Susan Cummings shot her Argentinean polo-playing lover. Moon also tells stories of other less notorious, but still fascinating residents, such as 77-year-old Anna Beavers, who has spent her life collecting clothing for poor children, namely the employees of wealthy farm owners. There’s the freelance bartender who drinks his own mistakes—and often needs a ride home. Moon’s book is not just a collection of stories about the wealthy and their quirks, though. Scattered throughout are recipes for dishes served at traditional Middleburg events, such as the annual Hunt Breakfast. In these pages you learn how to tailgate Middleburg style—as well as make TV weatherman Willard Scott’s famous Strawberry Pie, and the ham biscuits served at Elizabeth Taylor’s wedding to Senator John Warner. And no description of Middleburg would be complete with some attention to the most important events in this horse-obsessed town: the fox hunts and steeplechase races.
