The Guynd: A Scottish Journal

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rathbone, Belinda, PUBLISHER: Quantuck Lane Press, This memoir offers an American woman's uniquely privileged view into the pastoral Scotland of today. By turns funny, heartwarming, and occasionally sad, it is the author's account of her marriage to a Scottish landowner and of the years they spent together at "The Guynd," his large ancestral estate. We follow her steep learning curve in dealing with a grand and crumbling mansion still recovering from the effects of two World Wars, as well as an overgrown landscape, a derelict garden, troublesome tenants, local aristocracy, Scottish rituals, and a husband for whom change is anathema. A son and heir draws the author into an intimate relationship with every tier of the local society, while a visiting American friend heightens the strain of the ever-present culture gap. Alternating between enchantment and despair, Rathbone digs into family and local history in an effort to understand her surroundings and free her husband from the grip of the past. Like a letter home from a strange land, this book offers a view of Scotland not found in the guide books. The tale of the journey through the wrought iron gates and up the long tree-lined drive into the living past is both wry and poignant, both oddball and deeply reflective of the ties that bind us.

The Last Parallel: A Marine's War Journal

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Russ, Martin, PUBLISHER: Fromm International, Long regarded as one of the best books about combat ever written, The Last Parallel -- an undisputed classic of the Korean War -- is back in print. A national bestseller and a Book-of-the-Month Club main selection, The Last Parallel "ranks top among combat soldiers' war records of all time", said Fred T. Marsh in The New York Herald Tribune. John P. Marquand in the Book-of-the-Month Club News concurred: "The Last Parallel is about the best account of combat I have read. One could even rate it as a higher achievement in some respects than that classic, The Red Badge of Courage... Every reader wilt see death and danger as Sergeant Russ saw it. He will wince at the explosion of the mortar shells. Vicariously he will struggle every step of the way as Russ and his companions bring back the dead and wounded... it is the best pro-Marine book yet to be published and one that should be read by mothers, wives and sweethearts, as well as everyone who has worn a uniform".
