Rodney and Nelson
The 'ShipCraft' series provides in-depth information about building and modifying model kits of famous warship types. Lavishly illustrated, each book takes the modeller through a brief history of the subject class, highlighting differences between sisterships and changes in their appearance over their careers. This includes paint schemes and camouflage, featuring colour profiles and highly-detailed line drawings and scale plans. The modelling section reviews the strengths and weaknesses of available kits, lists commercial accessory sets for super-detailing of the ships, and provides hints on modifying and improving the basic kit. This is followed by an extensive photographic survey of select...

Rodney's Wife
“A full emotional geography of a family . . . Seemingly light conversation scrapes the skins of the characters in this sharply etched study of dislocation, loneliness and sexual betrayal.”—Ben Brantley, The New York Times “Nelson is a master of the quiet detail, of the oblique rhythm that transforms emotional diffidence into fascinating character.”—Linda Winer, Newsday “The early scenes proceed with the closely observed simplicity of Chekhov, whereas the later more wrenching moments evoke the eloquent bitterness of Albee.”—David Cote, TimeOut New York A new work by leading American playwright Richard Nelson, who for more than 25 years has written prolifically, and with fine...
Words for the Deed
Nelson's yard is more than a measurement, more than partial of an acre which still measures a man; his yard is an even bigger free land full of sightings-beauty of following of a river, spotting an old cotton woody and a rock dove; even stepping out on Broadway the author finds sight in what needs to be said, lets loose from the mind, and what wasn't spoken years before, possibly forgotten but by him, it's there on each page. Words for the Deed is yet another brilliant book of Rodney Nelson, here to remind us to see the landscape and all around, to remember.
Cross Point Road
Rodney Nelson entered into a "late flowering" at an age when most poets are content to write blurbs and accept honors on what they have already written. The turn of the millennium marked a return to poetry for him-he had been a novelist and a playwright-and to his own amazement, new work would not stop coming. At the same time, the publication of his poetry in burgeoning electronic journals introduced him to a wider readership than he had ever known. Nelson's recent work has seen print, too. There have been chapbooks and books. But Cross Point Road is his first major collection. "It would not do to try to put content or theme before art," he claims; however, readers will note the prevalence of western American landscape behind and within his lines, especially that of his native northern Great Plains. Cross Point Road is in part Nelson's tribute to the world he has found outside the windshield.
H.M.S. Rodney
The biography of a British battleship, from an author with “a facility for rendering nonfiction into a narrative as brisk and readable as a novel” (HistoryNet). The Second World War battleship HMS Rodney achieved lasting fame for her role in destroying the pride of Hitler’s navy, the mighty Bismarck, in a thrilling duel. The Rodney, carrying the largest guns ever mounted in a British warship, finally succeeded in turning her adversary into twisted metal and so removed a major threat to the Atlantic convoy routes so vital to the survival of the nation. This compelling book, from the acclaimed author of Killing the Bismarck, not only traces this mighty battleship’s career in detail, but describes the careers of all the ships carrying the name.
Invictus
Invictus: poems of late and earlier is a major collection by a poet whom age has not defeated. On the contrary, Rodney Nelson has been writing more than ever in his own inimitable manner, which allows for as much silence on the printed page as he finds in grove and field, mountain and shore, his lifelong haunts. Invictus begins with recent poems, and the 2012 section is an account of loss and grief. The 2010 part recollects his time on the West Coast; in 2008 are variations on a light "metacowboy" theme. "Poetry should avoid the style and content of expository prose," Nelson asserts. His own does. There is music in it.
Mogollon Picnic
Come and take a hike through southwestern landscape: “Trail to the Past” areas in Rodney Nelson's descriptive "pictographs"- Rodney Nelson is an avid hiker who writes about his experiences in the western United States. His book Mogollon Picnic highlights the Mogollon Rim excursions in New Mexico and explores them in a moving and unique way.
