Book Description
This 1945 classic British mystery from “a master of the whodunnit . . . combines a flawless plot, witty dialogue and a touch of surreal hilarity” (The New York Times Book Review). On holiday in the town of Tolnbridge with his butterfly net in hand, Prof. Gervase Fen, Oxford don of English Literature, is all set for a good frolic when he learns that the cathedral organist has been murdered. With Scotland Yard unable to make sense of the crime, Fen stands ready to step in. Whether he’s chasing butterflies or catching criminals, it’s all the same to this amateur sleuth with a penchant for literary allusions and an uncanny knack for solving the unsolvable: like why a small-town church musician would be mixed up with a local coven of witches—or a spy ring of Nazi sympathizers? Finding the answers provides endless amusement for Fen—and for readers as well—in this golden age English detective novel from Edmund Crispin, “an absolute must for devotees of cultivated crime fiction.” —Kirkus Reviews Praise for the mysteries of Edmund Crispin “A marvellous comic sense.” —P. D. James, New York Times–bestselling author of the Inspector Adam Dalgliesh series “Master of fast-paced, tongue-in-cheek mystery novels, a blend of John Dickson Carr, Michael Innes, M.R. James, and the Marx Brothers.” —Anthony Boucher, author of the Fergus O’Breen series “One of the most literate mystery writers of the twentieth century.” —The Boston Globe “Beneath a formidable exterior he had unsuspected depths of frivolity.” —Philip Larkin, author of A Girl in Winter “One of the last exponents of the classical English detective story.” —The Times (London)

Book Description
"Barrage is a hot young touring group of seven violinists, one percussionist, one kit player, guitarist, bass and keyboard players, performing a mix of original world beat music by Dean Marshall, with infectious and irresistible energy. Barrage combines jazz, swing, Celtic roots, rock, klezmer, country, calypso and every musical style in between to create an eclectic and electrifying assault on the senses. After hundreds of requests for the music of Barrage, this volume of sheet music has finally been produced. The texture of the music has been simplified from the group's seven parts down to 1 to 3 violin parts, with various markings included (bar numbers, fingerings, and bowings) which can be useful in group situations. In terms of difficulty, these arrangements are definitely written for the more intermediate to advanced player. The companion Enhanced CD has two exciting applications: You can print the piano/guitar accompaniment sheet music from your computer, and you can insert the same CD in your stereo for play along with the pre-recorded piano accompaniment tracks!"

Book Description
The People & Places of the Adirondacks collection contains a variety of story types: original works of hard history, the lives of unusual people, noteworthy accomplishments, groundbreaking inventions, remarkable mishaps, oddities, and humor. They all have one thing in common: each is rooted in the North Country, defined here as the Adirondacks and foothills. The region's past is filled with relative or complete unknowns who were, in fact, highly accomplished individuals. Many of the chapters here reveal their stories, which are well worth preserving. Those and others are presented with a purpose that is threefold: to educate, amuse, and entertain. In this volume: Hats for Horses: Was it Really a Thing?
