A Hobbit's Travels: Being the Hitherto Unpublished Travel Sketches of Sam Gamgee With Space for Notes
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Running Pr Book Pub 1978 0762413085 2nd Printing Soft Cover New No Jacket 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall Gamgee, Sam
Michael Green is a noted illustrator and traveler who would have made a very good detective. Some time back, he happened upon a particularly handsome journal that seemed somehow vaguely familiar. After a bit more investigation, he discovered that what he had found was the long-lost journal of Sam Gamgee, known to many as the most steadfast and loyal member of the Fellowship Ring. In his retirement, Sam was often asked to recount his adventures, and these scenes from the Fellowship's travels was apparently a gift to an especially deserving young friend. No effort has been spared to faithfully duplicate both Sam's handiwork and the curious Bywater paper that he used. Same meant this journal to be written in, so don't hesitate to set out your adventures from cover to cover. That's the way Sam would have wanted it! Unpaginated, all pages illustrated with plenty of room to write.

I, the Song: Classical Poetry of Native North America
Salt Lake City, Utah, U.S.A. Univ of Utah Press 1999 0874805902 No Edition Hard Cover Near Fine No Jacket 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall
"I am not here./I am within this stone./And this stone is a big cliff/in the middle of the Ocean,/it's sides steep, slippery!" This collection of poems will introduce readers to the rich and complex classical North American Indian poetry that grew out of, and reflects, North American Indian life before the European invasion. The editor has chosen clear, easily readable translations and assembled them around common experiences to tempt readers to read more deeply into this poetry.These poems let us look at our continent through the eyes of an extraordinarily wide range of people: The poets, hunters, farmers, holy men and women, and children who looked at it attentively and with delight before we cut the forests, plowed the tall grasses, exterminated the passenger pigeon, and nearly wiped out the buffalo. This poetry achieved its vividness, clarity and intense emotional power partly because the singers made their poems for active use, as well as beauty, and partly because they made them for singing or chanting rather than for isolated, passive reading. 302 pages including notes, a glossary, and bibliography. The binding is red cloth, adn has a bump at the top front.

Canada
Surrey, England Coombe Books 1991 0862834465 First Reprint Edition Hard Cover Near Fine Very Good 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall Photographs
If you've ever considered going to Canada, this book will convince you. The photography is excellent and the text at the beginning provides basic historic information about Canada. The land and the surrounding seas are more than just spectacular; they are the nation's raison d'etre. The bountiful waters of the Grand Banks first drew fishermen of Europe, the creatures of the forest provided materials for a thriving fur trade, and the rich soils of the prairies produce a large proportion of the world's wheat. But beyond that, Canada is a significant exporter of diamonds (not in the book). Profits are shared with the local Native Indian tribes, and they work in winter as well, pulling diamonds from the depths of a frozen lake. Native Indian tribes survive in Canada, and there are some beautiful photographs of them and their works. The binding is deep blue, and has photographs on the inside covers as well. The binding has minor wear at the corners and one small bump at the top. The jacket has minor wear to one corner and a small closed horizontal tear at the spine, repaired. Unpaginated, approximately 90 pages, most of them full-color photographs. Identification of photos shows up about every third page, so they can describe the previous two, present two, and next two pages using as little white space as possible. A joy to read and page through!

New York Dover Publications 1967 First Edition Soft Cover Very Good No Jacket 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall Beardsley, Aubrey

The other two plates, nos. 75 and 76 in the present volume, were originally printed in green ink. The artwork has been reproduced from the best available sources, and includes covers of plays, operas, bookplates, and other commercial and non-commercial drawings. 174 plates are included, in chronological order. Unpaginated. The cover has wear at the corners and some shelf wear at the top and bottom. The spine top is somewhat worn. All of the pages are clean; the frontispiece is from Isolde and is in orange, black and white. Very interesting drawings, definitely period pieces; fascinating to page through.

The Art of Ivan Gantschev: The Sun, the Moon, and Other Things
San Francisco, California, U.S.A. North South Books 1994 1558582312 First Edition Hard Cover New Near Fine 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall Gantschev, Ivan
Gantschev's beautiful, sometimes abstract artwork is featured here along with a small note of the medium(s) used. Often paints are done in water color, often colored pencil is added. "The world is wonderful and I want to paint it again and again. We walk through this world with our three-dimensional faculty of thought. Some say that there is a fourth dimension. Is it possible to make the invisible visible by painting the visible, concrete things? Is that the fourth dimension or is that art?" About half of the illustrations were done for books, and as such are particularly inventive. The binding is heavy cardboard using the rippled portion. There is a cut-out in this where part of a painting on heavy cardboard shows through. This cover is covered with a heavy clear cover, which has a tiny dent in it at the top, and some rubbing on the back. This book is one tht is pleasant to page through, the paintings are beautiful and some have surprise elements that are also attractive. 91 pages.

The Wisdom of Ramala
Essex, England C W Daniel Company Ltd. 1986 085435185x Soft Cover Near Fine No Jacket 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall
At this time of great conflict in our World, when so many people are searching for a solution to the problems of human relationships, both on an individual and a national level, it is only too apparent that neither Government nor Religion nor Science is capable of providing the answers. Human society today is fragmented and divisive and is no longer capable of seeing things from a holistic viewpoint, of recognising the divinity and oneness of all life. To whom, therefore, can Humanity turn for advice? Is there a source of wisdom into which Humanity can tap in order to gain fresh insight into it's problems? That is what this book addresses. 327 pages; prior owner's name blacked out on the first page of the book.The cover is a bit bent from the middle.

Peace in Vietnam A New Approach in Southeast Asia
New York Hill and Wang 1966 First Edition Soft Cover Near Fine No Jacket 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall
"You Americans don't understand. You are making beggars of our children, prostitutes of our women, and Communists of our men!" These words were uttered by a young Vietnamese teacher. They were directed at an American G. I. in Hue, South Vietnam, who had been passing out candy to a group of youngsters. The American Friends Service Committee, a Quaker organization, had been making every effort that it could to end the fighting in Vietnam. As part of this effort, a working party was appointed to search for alternatives to military force. This resulting report provides by no means the only answer, but does point out paths of action we can follow to halt war's expansion and to bring the destruction of property and human life to an end. (From the back cover) 112 pages, including 4 appendices and a selected bibliography. There is a minor crease on the front cover.
