Wilkie Collins was an English novelist, playwright, and short story writer. Armadale is a novel by Collins, first published in 1864-66. When the elderly Allan Armadale makes a terrible confession on his death-bed, he has little idea of the repercussions to come, for the secret he reveals involves the mysterious Lydia Gwilt: flamed-hair temptress, bigamist, laudanum addict and husband-poisoner. This traditional melodrama also considers the modern theme of the role of women in society.

Jules Verne (1828-1905) possessed that rare storyteller`s gift of being able to present the far-fetched and the downright unbelievable in such a way as effortlessly to inspire his reader`s allegiance and trust. This volume contains two of his best-loved yarns, chosen from among the sixty-four titles of "Les Voyages extraordinaires", Verne`s pioneering contribution to the canon of modern Science Fiction. "Around the World in Eighty Days" (1873) relates the hair-raising journey made as a wager by the Victorian gentleman Phileas Fogg, who succeeds - but only just! - in circling the globe within eighty days.

"In his latest book on the aesthetics of music, Peter Kivy presents an argument not for authenticity but for authenticities of performance, including authenticities of intention, sound, practice, and the authenticity of personal interpretation in performance. . . . As usual, Kivy s work is beautifully written, well argued, and provocative".--NOTES. A CHOICE magazine "Outstanding Academic Book for 1995".19 musical examples.
Autocar s roots go way back into the early 1900s and became known for tough and rugged trucks. When WWII came, very few trucks for civilian use were produced and by the end many trucks were worn out from constant use. After the war, civilian production began again in full force because of the lack of new trucks. In 1950, when Autocar introduced the new driver cab, the louver design was eliminated. The old style flat windshield sleeper cabs were used up until 1953 (the same year that Autocar was purchased by the White Motor Co.) when the new sleeper cab was introduced. See the rest of the "World s Finest" helping do their part to revive America in the 1950s.
