"But it is his skill as a historian as well as a printer that endears his name to the student of typography. His four volumes on the practice of typography are considered classics. In an age when few American scholars were examining early printed books, he made significant scholarly contributions to the study of incunables. When the Grolier Club was founded in 1884, it was not surprising that, as New York's most illustrious printer, he was asked to be one of the founding members and to provide much the Club's early printing."--BOOK JACKET.

In 1968, as Sue Skilton Orrell left her hometown, DeLand, Florida, she felt that the turmoil in her personal life was as chaotic as the widespread social and political unrest reported in the national news headlines. Despite the history that made her opt to stay away for over 54 years, she completed her formal education, built a successful career in Music Education, and dated every time she was single. Catastrophic weather events that impacted Houston and the onset of night driving limitation led Sue to consider returning to DeLand, the hometown she had never stopped missing. With resolute courage reinforced by numerous friends, family members, and strangers, she faced every decision and challenge to sell her house in Houston, buy another house in DeLand, and make the move within three months after first seriously considering the possibility of reclaiming the bucolic charm of DeLand, home of Stetson University, her undergraduate alma mater. This collection of short stories and journal entries covers the topics of Travel, Teaching, and Dating in Part One. Part Two addresses Weather, Real Estate, and Release. Sue links the topics by reflecting upon their effects on her personal growth, which enabled her ultimately to follow the path home and to be at peace not only within herself, but also in her hometown. For example, rather than writing a typical travelogue that stresses the geographical or cultural aspects of an area, she explored the dynamics of personal relationships and accidental adventures that occurred during some of her trips.

Manchurian American is the personal tale of Yupin Wang, who was born in Northeast China (Manchuria) in the 1930s. He is a witness to the Japanese invasion of China and brutal civil wars, an escapee to Taiwan, and an accidental American who came to the United States in the 1950s and made it. This is a poignant story of the human spirit triumphing over obstacles of nationality, race, and time. Manchurian American is about love, family, friendship, and gratitude for an adopted country. Wang's personal crusade in a new, bewildering land is as relevant today for him as it is for all Americans who live in a land of immigrants. From his first jobs on the boardwalk in Long Beach, Long Island, to his position as an executive with IBM, Yupin Wang brings wonder, frustration, and success to the story of his journey to become the Manchurian American. This story will appeal to a wide audience: Americans with immigrant roots, Americans who experienced war firsthand, baby boomers, and a younger generation seeking an explanation of the past. Both men and women will find it touching and engaging. Asians and new immigrants to America will find it inspiring.

When Rell DeMello went back to Kailua High after being treated for cancer, some kids called her brave; some said she was a hero. But, Rell didn't want to be a hero, she wanted to be normal, Rell "before cancer." Besides, she knew she wasn't brave. When Dr. Baden told her she had cancer, she cried. And after all the surgeries, the chemotherapy and radiation, Dr. Braden didn't say "You don't have cancer anymore." He said, "I find no evidence of cancer." Rell cried again. "No evidence" - like weeds in a garden, creeping under the surface, until one day a pale green shoot pops through the ground and chokes all the budding flowers. Rell hated cancer. She hated the word. When kids asked her if she was cured she'd say, It's not like that. It wasn't the answer they wanted to hear. They wanted a storybook ending with a handsome prince and a gallant white horse - not Nate Lee and his rust-bucket truck. They wanted a perfect life movie of a blonde cheerleader who got cancer, almost died, was cured and, when she went back to school, was crowned Homecoming Queen. It was just like Rell's life except for the part about being blonde, a cheerleader, Homecoming Queen and... cured.

When Jack was six years old, his parents were brutally slain by a serial killer. The police later found drifter Clyde Colsen driving a stolen car, his clothes soaked in blood. He was tried, convicted and executed. Jack grew up knowing the police got their man. Now a decorated homicide detective in New Rhodes, Jack arrives at the third crime scene of the “South End Killer” murders and finds his name. He will soon find out something else: thirty years ago, they got the wrong guy. And now the right guy’s come back to pay Jack and New Rhodes his bloody respects. As Jack struggles to stay on the case, his cat-and-mouse game with the killer makes him wonder if he’s the cat or the mouse. His family and everyone in his life is fair game. As the killer escalates and threatens the entire city, Jack has a question he must answer in his desperation: can he stop the monster without becoming one? Praise for WELCOME BACK, JACK: “I’ve been following Liam Sweeny’s writing career for several years. He started out pretty good and now—with Welcome Back, Jack —he’s become smokin’ good! I predict this novel will propel him to the highest ranks of novelists writing police procedurals. That may look like I’m climbing out on a limb and if so, it’s an extremely stout and solid limb. This ranks with the best of the genre and Sweeny is poised to become a writer of the highest rank. Remember his name—you’re going to be seeing it a lot.” —Les Edgerton, author of The Genuine, Imitation, Plastic Kidnapping, The Rapist, The Bitch and others “A new dark, very dark star has appeared in the noir spectrum and what a star it is. Welcome Back, Jack is the real deal, as down and deliciously dirty as it gets but with a wonderful fresh style and artistry that is as compelling as it is addictive. This is one hell of a start to what promises to be a unique series.” —Ken Bruen, author of the Jack Taylor series “When a triple homicide in New Rhodes bears worrisome similarities to one from police officer, Jack LeClere’s, childhood, nothing can stop him from following the sinewy clues to their horrific conclusion. As long as writers like Liam Sweeny can work the police procedural to such great affect, readers will follow Jack back to the gritty streets of New Rhodes gladly. Sweeny’s writes beautifully and Welcome Back, Jack is full of memorable characters. Claustrophobics beware!” —Patricia Abbot, author of Concrete Angel “Equal parts police procedural and psycho-thriller, Liam Sweeny reinvents a genre with Welcome Back, Jack. When serial killing gets personal, Jack LeClere is dragged underground into the past. Literally. With crisp, taut dialogue, fast-paced action, and more plot twists than the subterranean tunnels Jack must navigate to earn redemption, Sweeny taps into modern-day, urban paranoia, mining the best of Ellroy, Cain, and Westlake. Sweeny pays homage while tearing up some serious new ground.” —Joe Clifford, author of Lamentation and December Boys “Do yourself a favor: Before you start reading Welcome Back, Jack, clear your schedule. You’re not going to be able to stop until you’ve seen it through to the explosive finale.” —Rob Hart, author of New Yorked

Inspite of everything, he`s gone through in his young life, Desmond has never caught himself thinking defeating thoughts before. He has always been tough and hard core but when he came in contact with Cherryl, she awoke tender emotion in him that caused the hardness he is made of to evaporate. He desired her with a selfish hunger but Cherryl wanted him for good. He thought he wasn`t good enough for her. However, when he reached a breaking point, he had no option than to let go. It is not always dark; darkness surely gives way to light once light is introduced. Weeping indeed endures for the night but Joy comes with the limelight of the morning. Cherryl brought light to Desmond and this book can bring you the light you so much desire. “Why is everybody and everything against him? Why didn’t he die at child-birth or even in the operating room during those unsuccessful surgeries? Why is he not like the other of his mates? Why is everybody wicked and callous? Why is there no kind person around in the whole world? These and other series of questions bothered him so much that he refused to go to class for the night prep that evening; rather he laid down on his bed and wept himself to sleep... Who said a blind man can’t dream? Who said a handicapped can’t have vision and pursue it with vigour? Desmond refused to be tagged invalid or handicapped, he knew he was headed somewhere and he sure wasn’t going to allow anyone define him with his disability, He may be disabled in one way but he sure has lots of abilities so he was not going to let the disability over ride all the abilities he is bestowed with. He knew that with memories, yesterday still lives so what he did was to brush those memories aside and set before him the dreams, hopes and aspirations of tomorrow, he knew his tomorrow will be far better than his today if he worked hard and worked right. Desmond wants to distinguish himself just like the eagle, he wants to be exceptionally different from his mates though they are all in the same school and class but he has his eyes focused somewhere and none is strong enough to stop him except himself... As they carried him out, he prayed and hoped that someone will see them or even the house master that sent for him but alas, none was insight it was as if they had bribed everyone in the school premises. They carried him out to only God knows where and when they got to their destination, they told him they weren’t there for jokes, he should tell them where that money was or they will kill him. Desmond was shocked beyond words, all these for the four thousand dollars he won as award? These were not students so how did they get to know about the money? ‘Blind bat! One of the guys roared, where is the damn cash? Desmond didn’t want to appear frightened to them so he kept mute trying to gain composure... Desmond scampered to the direction he heard the dog’s shrill cry, ‘Brownie, oh, Brownie, please don’t die! As he took some steps further, he stumbled over a log and fell down, he tried getting up but couldn’t, he has broken an ankle. Tears of anguish and pain streamed down his face; he sat there weeping, he felt the grasses rustle around him. Brownie whimpered to his side still shaken from the whole episode... Meanwhile, exams has begun since yesterday and funny enough no teacher has asked of Desmond. What is really going on, could it be that Desmond has left school for now? But why didn’t he tell either Roland or Daniel? These two have been quite close to him in the recent time...‘Thank you Sir, Roland said, ‘we came to report to you that we haven’t seen Desmond around for the past three days and exams has started. ‘To make matters worse Sir, Daniel joined in, ‘no teacher has ever asked of him during the exams so we decided to come to you Sir to report’ he concluded... The Principal sent the security men to go fetch Mr. Lambert, they came back with the shocking news that he was found stabbed to death in his bathroom... Desmond was hospitaliz
