Beautiful Bath
Sitting regally in a valley in a pretty corner of England, Bath is blessed with the only thermal springs in Britain, a fabulous abbey church and the most stunning array of Georgian architecture in the world. Little wonder that the city has been a destination for travellers for over 2,000 years. Everyone from ancient Romans to Hollywood actors have praised Bath's beauty, making it one of the most written about cities in the world. The city has gone though many guises - Roman resort and Saxon ruin; Elizabethan spa and Georgian playground; Victorian retreat and World Heritage City - and people have continued to come and be delighted by it. This book brings together photographs of Bath today and love letters to the city from some of its greatest visitors down the ages.
Beastly Bath
They came, they saw, they hated it. . . Bath is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. However, go back in time and it was a very different place. In this entertaining compendium of caustic quotes, famous visitors of the past, including the likes of Jane Austen and Charles Dickens, queue up to complain of freezing behinds, insulting chairmen, villainous smells, naked bodies, wanton dalliances, hurled dogs, and far, far worse. . . This volume is handsomely illustrated by the talented Bath cartoonist Perry Harris.
No Blood Spilled
A coffin drifts on the Bay of Bengal... Within lies Sebastian Newcastle, rapt in the dreamless sleep of the Undead. His flight from England, spurred by the agonizing memories of his ruined love, Felicia Lamb, ends in the heart of India's darkest cult. The Thugs still make human sacrifice to Kali, the Goddess of Death... sacrifice she will accept only when there is no blood spilled. Reginald Callender, accused of the death of his fiancée, Felicia, has sworn vengeance on Newcastle. He has tracked the vampire to India, but the terrors of this strange new land—from the savage prowling panthers to the murderous Thugs—prove as formidable as his ancient enemy. Moreover, he has lost his heart to the beautiful widow Sarala Ghosh. But like Felicia before her, Sarala is headed for her own dark destiny in the cold embrace of Sebastian Newcastle.

But Not Philosophy
George Anastaplo has written brilliantly and persuasively about ancient and modern Western political philosophy and literature and about American Constitutional history and law. With his latest book Anastaplo turns away from his areas of admitted expertise to offer, in his own words, "the explorations of a determined amateur with some practice in reading." The essays contained in this volume were originally conceived as a set of seminars, each culminating in a public lecture, which in turn formed the basis for contributions to Encyclopedia Brittanica's 1961-1998 series The Great Ideas Today. Gathered in this one volume, But Not Philosophy provides useful and thought-provoking introductions t...
