Malamander
A quirky, creepy fantasy set in Eerie-on-Sea finds a colorful cast of characters in hot pursuit of a sea monster thought to convey a surprising gift. It’s winter in the town of Eerie-on-Sea, where the mist is thick and the salt spray is rattling the windows of the Grand Nautilus Hotel. Inside, young Herbert Lemon, Lost and Founder for the hotel, has an unexpected visitor. It seems that Violet Parma, a fearless girl around his age, lost her parents at the hotel when she was a baby, and she’s sure that the nervous Herbert is the only person who can help her find them. The trouble is, Violet is being pursued at that moment by a strange hook-handed man. And the town legend of the Malamander — a part-fish, part-human monster whose egg is said to make dreams come true — is rearing its scaly head. As various townspeople, some good-hearted, some nefarious, reveal themselves to be monster hunters on the sly, can Herbert and Violet elude them and discover what happened to Violet’s kin? This lighthearted, fantastical mystery, featuring black-and-white spot illustrations, kicks off a trilogy of fantasies set in the seaside town.

For each fossil the age and provenance are provided. Each chapter provides a detailed introduction to the living member...
Born of War
"'A man of genius, a man of destiny,' was Churchill's epitaph for the most original and controversial warrior of the twentieth century, Orde Wingate. Extolled by American and Israeli allies, grudgingly admired by Italian and Japanese foes, the iconoclastic Wingate fought his bitterest campaigns against the hierarchy of his own British army, which he led to its first victories on two continents during World War II. Even before, he had gained enduring fame. Like his cousin, Lawrence of Arabia, Wingate developed the embryo of a guerrilla army in the Middle East; in its ranks were the founding fathers of Israel, whom he was ready to lead against the Nazis. Rebuffed by the British high command, h...
