The Asteroid Murder Case by Arthur Jean Cox Pdf

In the tradition of the old Ace Doubles (flip one book over to read the second title), here is the twentieth Wildside Double: THE ASTEROID MURDER CASE: A Science Fiction Mystery, by Arthur Jean Cox. The murder of UN observer Carl Neal on a lonely outpost of the Asteroid Belt would seem to be only a small human tragedy, and yet it opens up vistas both of millennia of time and of unimaginable distances. Inspector Tom Dooley, Chief of Security of the American Sector of the Belt, together with his faithful "Watson," Ralph Phelps, must sift through the many clues to unravel the mystery of Neal's death--and then keep the aliens from interfering. A first-rate science fiction adventure combined with a classic mystery! A COLLECTOR OF AMBROSES AND OTHER RARE ITEMS, by Arthur Jean Cox.

Saint Ambrose Collection [9 Books] by Saint Ambrose,Aeterna Press Pdf

SAINT AMBROSE COLLECTION [9 BOOKS] — Quality Formatting and Value — Active Index, Multiple Table of Contents for all Books — Multiple Illustrations Aurelius Ambrosius, better known in English as Saint Ambrose, was a bishop of Milan who became one of the most influential ecclesiastical figures of the 4th century. He was consular prefect of Liguria and Emilia, headquartered in Milan, before being made bishop of Milan by popular acclamation in 374. Ambrose was a staunch opponent of Arianism, and has been accused of fostering persecutions of Arians, Jews, and pagans. Traditionally, Ambrose is credited with promoting "antiphonal chant", a style of chanting in which one side of the choir responds alternately to the other, as well as with composing Veni redemptor gentium, an Advent hymn. Ambrose was one of the four original doctors of the Church, and is the patron saint of Milan. He is notable for his influence on St. Augustine. —BOOKS— CONCERNING REPENTANCE CONCERNING VIRGINS CONCERNING WIDOWS EXPOSITION OF THE CHRISTIAN FAITH ON THE DECEASE OF HIS BROTHER SATYRUS ON THE DUTIES OF THE CLERGY ON THE HOLY SPIRIT ON THE MYSTERIES AND THE TREATISE ON THE SACRAMENTS THE LETTERS OF SAINT AMBROSE, BISHOP OF MILAN PUBLISHER: AETERNA PRESS

Furniture-Makers and Consumers in England, 1754–1851 by Akiko Shimbo Pdf

Covering the period from the publication of Thomas Chippendale's The Gentleman and Cabinet-Makers' Director (1754) to the Great Exhibition (1851), this book analyses the relationships between producer retailers and consumers of furniture and interior design, and explores what effect dialogues surrounding these transactions had on the standardisation of furniture production during this period. This was an era, before mass production, when domestic furniture was made both to order and from standard patterns and negotiations between producers and consumers formed a crucial part of the design and production process. This study narrows in on three main areas of this process: the role of pattern books and their readers; the construction of taste and style through negotiation; and daily interactions through showrooms and other services, to reveal the complexities of English material culture in a period of industrialisation.
