Book Description
Septimus has been a warrior all his life. From legionary to citizen and back again, he’s fought for Rome across Europe and beyond. Now he’s in Albion, the mystical country from whence the druids sprang. Sent to scout the land, he finds a world far removed from the civilisation boasted by Rome, populated by beings beyond the wildest tales of bard and playwright alike. A chance encounter starts him on a journey that will change him from jaded warrior to fey legend. This is the tale of that journey.

The year is 1867. A box treasured by a distinguished American exile in England is stolen; three battle-hardened ex-Southern soldiers from the recently ended American Civil War arrive on an unusual mission; two go on a hectic pursuit of the box in Liverpool and London; the third takes a path that could lead to the gallows... A newspaper announcement echoing a poem by the poet-priest of the Southern Confederacy intrigues Roberta Van Trask, daughter of an American diplomat in London. It causes detective Septimus Dacers and herself to risk their lives as they attempt to foil a grotesque scheme which could cause war between Britain and the United States... An exciting historical mystery!

Book Description
The Wallace catalogs the sheer brutality of war. We are regaled with such detailed accounts of the sacking of towns and the burning down of buildings full of screaming inhabitants that the smells and sounds, as well as the terrible sights, of war are graphically conveyed in language which seems designed not only to express Wallace's rage and Hary's antipathy but also to incite hatred of the English in his readers.

Book Description
This is the first English translation of The Fathers According to Rabbi Nathan, one of the richest depositories of rabbinic reflections on the study of the Torah. It is the earliest commentary on Abot, the only tractate of the Mishnah that does not deal with legal matters but exclusively with "agada," an unlimited variety of religious, ethical, and edifying subjects.
