This poetical study of water ranges from classical myth and literature to modern physics and microbiology. Because water exists in three forms or phases—liquid, solid, and gas—each needs its own constellation of ideas. Its subtle movement is the hidden source of question, questioner, and the phenomenon of life. Its power is transformation, the unspoken theme of the book.

Let man fear the Leanan Sidhe. Her gifts are not without price. Fia Walsh has never fit in. With iridescent beetle shell hair, and what might be newly sprouting horns, she's decided to run away from the city, her loving brother, and his shrew of a wife. In order to make her escape, she needs money. The only way to get it is to sell her most treasured possession-a worn leather book once belonging to her mother. The only problem? Tieg Connolly, a dour young man on the hunt for rare and interesting tomes. In a lucky twist of fate, Fia accepts a job from Tieg and moves to the small town of Feyport-where the fey are rumored to abound. Assisting him in his new business venture, the ever upbeat Fia senses her treasured book and Tieg himself are both holding secrets. Wanting nothing more than to find her place in the world, she'll need to learn to read the mysterious text all the while evading some rather unsavory characters. While Fia and Tieg grow closer, Fia learns sometimes discovering yourself comes at a hefty price. A cozy Celtic folklore inspired fantasy brimming with unforgettable characters, dangerous creatures, long buried family secrets, and heart warming romance, A Simple Tale of Ink and Bindings returns to the world of A Simple Tale of Water and Weeping but may be read as a stand alone novel.

This is a translation of the first fifteen stories of the thirteenth century Sinhala work, the Saddharma Ratnāvaliya written by the monk Dharmasēna. The Saddharma Ratnāvaliya is in turn an expanded version of the fifth century Pali work, the Dhammapadattakata. The stories are lively and entertaining, of interest to the general reader and the specialist. A skilled teacher, and raconteur, the author probes the depths of Buddhist philosophical doctrine and makes it meaningful for his lay audiences. Generations of Sri Lankans have read, heard and enjoyed the stories. They deal with the vicissitudes of the human condition and so, like all good literature have a timeless relevance and appeal.

These early works by Guy de Maupassant were originally published in the 1880's. As a collection of short stories, this represents Maupassant's tales of tragedy, and includes 'A Widow', 'The Beggar', 'The Christening', 'The Farmer's Wife', 'The Model', and 'The Mountain Pool'. Guy de Maupassant was born in 1850 at the Château de Miromesnil, near Dieppe, France. He came from a prosperous family, but when Maupassant was eleven, his mother risked social disgrace by trying to secure a legal separation from her husband. After the split, Maupassant lived with his mother till he was thirteen, and inherited her love of classical literature. In 1880, Maupassant published his first – and, according to many, his best – short story, entitled 'Boule de Suif' ('Ball of Fat'). It was an instant success. He went on to be extremely prolific during the 1880s, working methodically to produce up to four volumes of short fiction every year. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions.

Bringing together Custer, Sherman, Grant, and other fascinating military and political figures, as well as great native leaders such as Crazy Horse, Sitting Bull, and Geronimo, this “sweeping work of narrative history” (San Francisco Chronicle) is the fullest account to date of how the West was won—and lost. After the Civil War the Indian Wars would last more than three decades, permanently altering the physical and political landscape of America. Peter Cozzens gives us both sides in comprehensive and singularly intimate detail. He illuminates the intertribal strife over whether to fight or make peace; explores the dreary, squalid lives of frontier soldiers and the imperatives of the Indian warrior culture; and describes the ethical quandaries faced by generals who often sympathized with their native enemies. In dramatically relating bloody and tragic events as varied as Wounded Knee, the Nez Perce War, the Sierra Madre campaign, and the Battle of the Little Bighorn, we encounter a pageant of fascinating characters, including Custer, Sherman, Grant, and a host of officers, soldiers, and Indian agents, as well as great native leaders such as Crazy Horse, Sitting Bull, Geronimo, and Red Cloud and the warriors they led. The Earth Is Weeping is a sweeping, definitive history of the battles and negotiations that destroyed the Indian way of life even as they paved the way for the emergence of the United States we know today.
