Languages : en
Pages : 513
Book Description
William Manchester's epic and definitive account of President John F. Kennedy's assassination.

Kennedy's death. Through hundreds of interviews, abundant travel and firsthand observation, and with unique access to the proceedings of the Warren Commission, Manchester conducted an exhaustive historical investigation, accumulating forty-five volumes of documents, exhibits, and transcribed tapes. His ultimate objective -- to set down as a whole the national and personal tragedy that was JFK's assassination -- is brilliantly achieved in this galvanizing narrative, a book universally acclaimed as a landmark work of modern history.

Concerning Belinda

Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
For years New York had been beckoning to Belinda. All during her time at the western co-educational college, where she collected an assortment of somewhat blurred impressions concerning Greek roots, Latin depravity, and modern literature, and assisted liberally in the education of her masculine fellow students, New York, with its opportunities for work and experience, had lured her on. As it turns out, Belinda had her chance: The Misses Ryder needed a teacher of English; Belinda dreamed of New York. To make a long story short, Belinda was engaged to teach to the Ryder pupils such sections and fragments of the English branches as might be introduced into their heads without resort to surgery. The salary offered was meager, but the work would be in New York; so the contract was made, and Belinda was inclined to look upon Miss Lucilla as an angel of light. Miss Lucilla's opinion of the arrangement was summed up briefly in her next letter to Miss Emmeline.
