Spirits in Stone: The New Face of African Art
I am one of the largest importers of Shona sculpture in the US. [ www.shonagallery.com ]I have traveled to Zimbabwe more than 12 times and have purchased thousands of wonderful sculptures from more than 200 artists directly. I believe this book to be the very best treatment of shona sculpture and its relationship to the Zimbabwean culture that I have seen. The people who put it together seem ...

Syracuse University Press, 2005

Invaluable contribution to Native American history
Oneida Iroquois: Folklore, Myth, And History draws heavily from the the journals of (non-Indian) scholar Hope Emily Allen, as well as newly discovered field notes that document an oral tradition from the golden age of Iroquois folklore (1880-1925). Allen documented narrative art and myths that were largely unknown to the white world; examining the legends, author Anthony Wonderley deftly explores ...

The book that started it all for me!!!
I have been an avaricious reader since I was in the second grade; a bout of mononucleosis and the discovery of the Hardy boys in the third grade sealed the deal for me, and I have been reading furiously ever since. This book, perhaps more than any other I had read in those formative years, thrilled me to my bones and forged me into a lifelong committed adventure reader. They say you never forget ...

Required reading to conclude the Prisoner of Zenda saga.
Anthony Hope continues his gripping saga of the Prisoner of Zenda in this adventureous sequel. Rupert of Hentzau is well written and keeps the reader in constant suspense. Hope follows his traditional writing style of unexpected twists in the end. The book builds the reader up full of emotion and then concludes by purging the reader of all emotions. Rupert of Hentzau is full of deuls, escapes, ...

Set in Ruritania, otherwise disappointing
Sir Charles Mallet says, in _Anthony Hope and His Books_, page 96: "The public took to its heart another charming lady of the Elphberg stock, a sister of the wild King Rudolph.... Mr W.L. Courtney, an Oxford friend and philosopher, headed a long article in the Daily Telegraph with the title "Osra the Flirt," and it is to be feared that the title, though wanting in respect for Royal ...

Henry Holt and Company, 1898

Action-Packed Punctuated by Profuse Pining
The 1898 Grosset & Dunlap version of "Rupert of Hentzau" is a dear old book. A.H. Hawkins writes as Anthony Hope in this follow-up to the popular "Prisoner of Zenda." Charles Dana Gibson has four full-page illustrations, which are sweet reminders of a bygone era. Since the book springboards from the first, which I have not read, I found myself playing catch-up in the first chapter. ...
