New York: Doubleday, November 2009. Hardcover. First Edition (stated) / full number line. Fine book in a Fine jacket. Unmarked. Spine straight and tight. Jacket clean and bright. Not from a library. No remainder mark. Not clipped. 308 pages. Ford County is the best writing that John Grisham has ever done. Returning to the setting of his first novel, Grisham presents seven short stories about the residents of Ford County, Mississippi. Each story explores different themes-mourning, revenge, justice, acceptance, evolution-but all flirt with the legal profession. Full of strong characters, simple but resonant plotlines, and charming Southern accents, this collection is solid throughout. As always, Grisham balances his lawyerly preoccupations with a deep respect for his undereducated and overlooked characters.

Spine straight and tight, ends lightly bumped. Jacket clean and bright. Not from a library. No remainder mark. Not clipped. xiv + 448 pages. Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln were the preeminent self-made men of their time. In this dual biography, the author describes the transformations in the lives of these two giants during a major shift in cultural history, when men rejected the status quo and embraced new ideals of personal liberty. As Douglass and Lincoln reinvented themselves and ultimately became friends, they transformed America.
Lincoln was born dirt poor, had less than one year of formal schooling, and became the nation's greatest president. Douglass spent the first twenty years of his life as a slave, had no formal schooling-in fact, his masters forbade him to read or write-and became one of the nation's greatest writers… Read More

Chasing his fortune, he will travel from the red light district of Bombay to the green lawns of England to the unmapped African wilderness.
