Emma is a comic novel by Jane Austen, first published in 1816, about the perils of misconstrued romance. The main character, Emma Woodhouse, is described in the opening paragraph as “handsome, clever, and rich” but is also rather spoiled. Prior to starting the novel, Austen wrote, “I am going to take a heroine whom no-one but myself will much like.”

Buy Now
Love and Freindship is a juvenile story by Jane Austen, dated 1790, when Austen was 14 years old. Love and Freindship (the misspelling is one of many in the story) is clearly a parody of romantic novels Austen read as a child. This is clear even from the subtitle, “Deceived in Freindship and Betrayed in Love,” which neatly undercuts the title.

$19.95
This epistolary novel, an early complete work that the author never submitted for publication, describes the schemes of the main character—the widowed Lady Susan—as she seeks a new husband for herself, and one for her daughter. Although the theme, together with the focus on character study and moral issues, is close to Austen's published work (Sense and Sensibility also originally written in the epistolary form), its outlook is very different, and the heroine has few parallels in 19th-century literature.

THE BOOK OF TEA
by Okakura Kakuzo (Unabridged) 2-CD Set • Approximate Running Time: 2 Hours
$12.95 In this revered classic, Kakuzo elucidates such topics as Zen and Taoism, but also the secular aspects of Tea and Japanese life. The book emphasizes how Teaism taught the Japanese many things; most importantly, simplicity. Kakuzo argues that this tea-induced simplicity affected art and architecture, and he was a long-time student of the visual arts. He ends the book with a chapter on Tea Masters, and spends some time talking about Sen no Rikyu and his contribution to the Japanese Tea Ceremony..

WIND IN THE WILLOWS (Unabridged) 6-CD Set • Approximate Running Time:6 Hours
CHILDREN
$19.95
This much-beloved story follows a group of animal friends in the English countryside as they pursue adventure...and adventure pursues them! The chief characters--Mole, Rat, and Toad -- generally lead upbeat and happy lives, but their tales are leavened with moments of terror, homesickness, awe, madcap antics, and derring-do. The vocabulary is decidedly NOT Dick and Jane, and a reader with a love of words will find new ones to treasure, even if well-equipped for the journey. Parents will appreciate the themes of loyalty.

CD B003DRHTOW $19.95
! NEW
C.S. Lewis' first book, now a new audio book from Believers AudioBooks. Published under the pseudonym Clive Hamilton, most of the poems appear to have been written between 1915 and 1918, a period during which Lewis was a student under W. T. Kirkpatrick, a military trainee at Oxford, and a soldier serving in the trenches of World War I. Their outlook varies from Romantic expressions of love for the beauty and simplicity of nature to cynical statements about the presence of evil in this world. The attitude in many of these poems is quite different from the attitude he expressed in his many Christian books from the 1930s on. A MUST HAVE collection for any C.S. Lewis fan.

BEN HUR: A TALE OF THE CHRIST B001B42YOY • KINDLE EDITION
RELIGION
$2.95 Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ is part of an important sub-genre of historical fiction set among the characters of the New Testament. The novel was a phenomenal best-seller; and stayed the best-selling American noveluntil the 1936 publication of Margaret Mitchell's Gone with the Wind. The book was also the first work of fiction to be blessed by a pope. Lew Wallace said that he wrote Ben-Hur as a way to sort out his own beliefs about God and Christ. In doing so he inspired many readers by combining romanticism and spiritual piety common in sentimental novels of the 19th century with the action and adventure found in the more vulgar stories of the day.

NAVE’S TOPICAL BIBLE
(Unabridged) KINDLE EDITION B001AI45ZW • $4.95 Nave was a Chaplin in the United State Army and referred to his work as "the result of fourteen years of delight and untiring study of the Word of God." It is a topical concordance of the Bible, and contains Biblical references to over 20,000 topics. Scriptures are quoted over 100,000 times, consisting of verses, parts of verses, series of verses, and chapters. It should be noted however that the same Scripture citation may appear under more than one topic heading. The topic headings are broad, covering many religious concepts, geographical regions, and names of Biblical figures. While theological concepts such as salvation and worship are included, a wide range of topics, such as Biblical references to ropes, are also included. This reflects the author's intention, as stated in the book's preface, to "...note and classify everything found in the Scriptures".

Sensitive to the concepts and original language of the scriptures, the complete Old and New Testament are presented in everyday language, providing a text that is perfect for general reading or in-depth study. Completely indexed, and easy to navigate. It has been edited to conform to the Greek Majority Text New Testament. The translation converts about 1,000 archaic words and word forms to modern equivalents, adds quotation marks (the ASV of 1901 had none), updates punctuation, updates usage, and spot checks the translation against the original languages in places where the meaning is unclear or significant textual variants exist.
THE BOOK OF TEA B001B3O3QM
• KINDLE EDITION
RELIGION
$4.95 That a nation should construct one of its most resonant national ceremonies round a cup of tea will surely strike a chord of sympathy with at least some readers of this review. To many foreigners, nothing is so quintessentially Japanese as the tea ceremony--more properly, "the way of tea"--with its austerity, its extravagantly minimalist stylization, and its concentration of extreme subtleties of meaning into the simplest of actions. The Book of Tea is something of a curiosity: written in English by a Japanese scholar (and issued here in bilingual form), it was first published in 1906, in the wake of the naval victory over Russia with which Japan asserted its rapidly acquired status as a worldclass military power. It was a peak moment of Westernization within Japan. Clearly, behind the publication was an agenda, or at least a mission to explain. Around its account of the ceremony, The Book of Tea folds an explication of the philosophy, first Taoist, later Zen Buddhist, that informs its oblique celebration of simplicity and directness--what Okakura calls, in a telling phrase, "moral geometry."

A master ad libber, he constantly battled censorship and developed routines the style and substance of which influenced future comic talents, notably Stan Freberg. Perhaps more than any of his generation, Fred Allen wielded influence that outlived both his contemporaries and the medium that made him famous.

The early 1940s programs opened with Raymond Edward Johnson introducing himself as, "Your host, Raymond," in a mocking sardonic voice. A spooky melodramatic organ score punctuated Raymond's many morbid jokes and playful puns. Raymond's closing was an elongated "Pleasant dreeeammsss?!" His tongue-incheek style and ghoulish relish of his own tales became the standard for horror narrators to follow.

Includes 2 Cds New exercises, never seen before in drum method books, will greatly help beginning and intermediate players develop the limb coordination needed for the varied patterns a drummer’s limbs must all perform independently. The best part is these can be practiced anytime & anywhere! In addition, you will learn exercises that will increase your agility and speed in maneuvering around the set by following different patterns and incorporating drills for drum sets that have either a 3 or 4 tom setup. The most common rudiments are covered with applied exercises and emphasis on technique. A special section is devoted to developing skill, power and precision with the feet on the pedals and an exclusive section on teaching 3 against 2 coordination that is vital for any drummer going into jazz, funk or fusion genres! Book is accompanied by two audio CDs that are played and recorded by the author to aid in comprehension of the exercises and to confirm for the student that they are indeed playing the exercise correctly!

You asked, we listened! Our customers asked for manuscript books with lighter lines to make notation easier to read. They also said they only wanted staff lines on one side, and printed on thicker paper, so notation wouldn’t show through to the other side. They also wanted books to be spiral-bound, and all the pages perforated to make it easier to remove individual pages. PLUS, they wanted more pages for the money! That’s why we created our ProfessionalGrade line of manuscript papers for teachers, students, arrangers, and composers. Since introducing the new line this year, the books have been flying off the shelves and into musician’s hands around the world!
Ÿ 8.5” x 11”manuscript books are
available in 8, 10 & 12-staff versions, 100 pages each, single-sided, in white or buff. Ÿ Thinner staff lines for easier
readability. Ÿ Great for pencil or pen. Ÿ Easy erasure. Ÿ Deluxe heavy-weight paper. Ÿ Side wire-binding helps book
lie flat when opened. Ÿ Perforated pages for easy
removal.
