My editing and publishing leaves much of the original text intact and only clarifies or adds informative detail where necessary. I was proud and honoured to take this up where my father left off. Many books have been written about the Canadian sailors who fought in World War II in ships and the airmen who flew against the enemy in the sky but there have not been many books written about the young Canadians who engaged the enemy in tanks. Apart from Regimental Histories, their brave story is rarely told This book...

Kay Francis
ISBN: 9781593931063 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. I Can't Wait To Be Forgotten pays tribute to Kay's compassionate nature, her concern for others, her great contributions on behalf of those serving in the armed forces during World War II, and the financial legacy she contributed to The Seeing Eye. Kay felt that being of some service to others was far more important than focusing totally on promoting herself and a film career.

The serene picturesque qualities of the town of Lake Forest, could inspire in the casual observer a Norman Rockwell style feeling.

The Wrong Box
ISBN: 9781410100344 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Wrong Box is one of Robert Louis Stevenson's strangest works. Written with his stepson Lloyd Osborne, it is a masterpiece of black comedy, turning on mistaken identity, the disappearance of a corpse, and several makeshift coffins. V. S. Pritchett described it as "a farce that slips down the throat with the nicety of an oyster," and, according to E. F. Benson, it is "perhaps the most superb extravaganza in the language." In this intriguing work, the Finsbury family has long been involved in a Tontine - a scheme in which subscribers invest money in a fund which them falls to the last...

Great Britons of Stage and Screen: In Conversation
ISBN: 9781442246201 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Although there are encyclopedias and biographical dictionaries of contemporary British film and theatre actors, most lack the intimacy of face-to-face interviews.

Great Britons of Stage and Screen: In Conversation features interviews with some of the leading actors of the last fifty years and more. In this collection, Barbara Roisman Cooper presents interviews she personally conducted with more than twenty stars of...
