Alfred Hitchcock and the Three Investigators in the Mystery of the Stuttering Parrot

5 reviews
Robert Arthur

Alfred A. Knopf, 1985

Please bring the Three Investigators Back!!!!
I, too, read all of the books when I was a child. Now that I'm looking for books to give to friends' children, I discover that these marvelous books are out of print! I beseech the publisher to re-issue them asap. The stuttering parrot has remained with me all these years, so much so that when I hear a reference to Sherlock Holmes, it is the stuttering parrot's "to to be" that immediately ...

The Mystery of the Whispering Mummy (The Three Investigators, 3)

Robert Arthur

Tandem Library, 2001

Speak to me Mummy!
Quite a few children's mystery book series have become classics. Most people are familiar with Nancy Drew, the Hardy Boys, and Tom Swift. Even the Boxcar Children are relatively well-known. However, Alfred Hitchcock and the Three Investigators were well-written books that offered an intelligent, interesting and more contemporary alternative to many of the earlier classic series. Many people ...

The Battleship Dreadnought (Anatomy of the Ship)

John Arthur Roberts

Naval Inst Pr, 1993

Star Treatment for Historic and Revolutionary Ship
This volume measures up to the superb standards of the Anatomy of a Ship series, and it is high time we had such a comprehensive and attractive guide to HMS Dreadnought, the prototype for all 20th century battleships. The book includes a narrative history of the ship and description of its features, full technical data, and superb drawings of virtually every detail of the ship's construction and ...

The Mystery of the Stuttering Parrot

10 reviews
Robert Arthur

Random House Books for Young Readers, 1985

A Classic Three Investigators Mystery
In this second book about the Three Investigators, Robert Arthur has exceeded the achievements of the first. Whereas The Secret of Terror Castle detailed the boys' attempt to prove their investigative powers, The Mystery of the Stuttering Parrot relates the story of the boys' first real case. Having been charged with finding a missing parrot, they soon find themselves intimately involved in a ...

Bulfinch, 1998

Anguished and Brilliant
In the collection of prose poems and verse fragments that make up the short book A Season in Hell, begun in April 1873 in an outbuilding at Rimbaud's family farm at the village of Roche and completed by the end of August, he looks back in despair over his life as a poet. In one of the fragments, titled "Ravings number two" he talks about "the history of one of my follies. I invented the colors ...

Mystery of the Fiery Eye

Demco Media, 2001

Turn back the clock.
I started reading the Three Investigators Mysteries back in the late 70's as a boy of ten. I believe that The Mystery of the Fiery Eye was the first and it hooked me in for many adventures to come. Now, as a man in his 30's, I am rediscovering just how wonderful these books really are. It is so refreshing to put aside adult matters for a few hours and return to a simpler time. I can't recommend ...

The Battlecruiser Hood (Anatomy of the ship)

4 reviews
John Arthur Roberts

Naval Inst Pr, 1982

The first of the "Anatomy of the Ship" series
This was the first book in the 36 books of the Anatomy of the ship series, published by Conway Maritime Press and the Naval Institute Press. Each book depicts an historical vessel. The Hood was the pride of the Royal Navy, and like the Titanic, unsinkable. Until it was sunk by the by the Bismarck and the Prinz Eugen. Why, because the deck armour was too thin. Anyway, this book was a revolution ...

Lao-Tzu

Wordsworth Editions Ltd, 1999

I gave my copy of this book to a good friend...
...and I spent hours trying to find the exact same translation online. The effort was worth it. I've seen many other translations, but none did as wonderful a job in both translating the meaning of this work in an intuitively understandable manner and in continuing to make it read with the beautiful lyricism I've become accustomed to. I don't know how you found this particular edition of ...

Lord of the Flies (Casebook) (Casebook Edition Text Notes and Criticism)

5 reviews
William Golding

Perigee Trade, 1987

Not 'Hatchet'
Since a George Orwell reference is obviously required here, I read 'Animal Farm' directly before Lord of the Flies. And I was foolish enough to think that Animal farm is a great book! It can hardly stand on all four legs when measuring up to Lord of the Flies. Just as 'Animal Farm' is a parody of the Russian Revolution, 'Lord of the Flies' is more of a parable for mankind than an inspiration for ...

Eric Fischl: 1970-2007

3 reviews
Arthur C. Danto, Robert Enright

Monacelli, 2008

Superbly illustrated
This publication is an expanded edition of "Eric Fischl 1970-2000". In the opening essay Arthur C Danto helps us see the artist in context from his student days in the 1970s, when painting was almost an anathema, through his early work and to his notorious painting, "Sleepwalker", which brought him to the public's attention, and to his mature paintings. Selected paintings are discussed in more ...

Arthur L. Friedberg, Robert Friedberg, ...

Coin & Currency Institute, 2001

F&F good as always...
Clearly THE book for the beginner and intermediate collector. It gives an excellent overview of each type of note (Nationals, Silver Certs, etc.) as well brief descriptions of each note within each type. A great way to learn the history associated with the engravings on U.S. paper currency from the Civil War (1861) to the present. And, of course, the Friedberg numbering scheme is the standard ...

The Complete Elliott Wave Writings of A. Hamilton Bolton

Robert R., Jr. Prechter, Arthur Hamilton Bolton

New Classics Library, 1994

Great historical reference
This is one of the 2 books that fills in all the details of Elliott Wave research and history in the time period between Elliott himself and today's Robert Prechter. The other book is the Elliott Wave Writings of A.J. Frost and Richard Russell. In short, this book is a very necessary addition to any serious student of Elliott and Socionomics. It takes you through the history of great market calls ...

Robert R. Perkinson

Wiley, 2005

Great resource.
This book is awesome for many addictions, as well as addresses issues that are correlated to addiction, such as grief or past family trauma. It is ASAM oriented, so you can pick out what dimension you want to address. The verbage is concise and makes you sound real smart ;) It identifies the problem, gives goals, and recommends objectives w/strategies. Great for interns or anyone who can ...

Principles of Clinical Pharmacology

4 reviews
Charles E. Daniels, Robert Dedrick

Academic Press, 2001

Excellent resource for post-graduate training
In my opinion, this is the best book on general principles without going into detail on specific therapeutic areas. I would consider it a must-read for those in clinical pharmacology post-graduate training or those working in clin pharm. However, previous knowledge of pharmacology is needed, as this book is not suitable as a first primer for medical and undergrad students.

Israel : Past and Present

Arthur Frommer

Frommers, 1998

Best short pictorial summary of the history of Israel ever
Book uses unique overlay technique that allows the reader to see what a historical site looks like today as well as what it looked like in its prime. Excellent reference material for pilgrims to the Holy Land. I bought it in Israel and bought three more for friends when I got home.
