The setting is October 1879. The stage is New Georgetown, West Virginia. A mysterious figure by the name of 'The Maker' has entered this small community and, almost immediately upon doing so, started entering the minds of the townsfolk. Townsfolk who are as curious as The Maker himself. Like Dr Umbrund, the pint-sized physician with a prodigious capacity for sin; like the three sisters in the house on the hill - one stern, one wild, one mysterious; like the tavern's semi-mythical siren, 'The Bird', who plays spellbinding music from behind a black velvet curtain, and whom no patron has ever laid eyes on; like Odell, a youth with dreams and ambitions that his craven disposition will forever prevent him from seizing; and who has spent the entirety of his erstwhile existence under the crushing heel of Clay, New Georgetown's lead cad and chief alpha male. As we enter these characters' lives, and lightly tread our way through their brains, their bedrooms, their backstories and beyond, we will see what it is they all hope for and hide - and learn just why The Maker has chosen to meet them.
From Russia’s tampering with the US election to the WannaCry hack that temporarily crippled the NHS, cyber has become the weapon of choice for democracies, dictators, and terrorists. Cheap to acquire, easily deniable, and used for a variety of malicious purposes ― from crippling infrastructure to sowing discord and doubt ― cyberweapons are re-writing the rules of warfare. In less than a decade, they have displaced terrorism and nuclear missiles as the biggest immediate threat to international security and to democracy. Here, New York Times correspondent David E. Sanger takes us from the White House Situation Room to the dens of Chinese government hackers and the boardrooms of Silicon Valley, piecing together a remarkable picture of a world now coming face-to-face with the most sophisticated ― and arguably most dangerous ― weapon ever invented. The Perfect Weapon is the dramatic story of a new era of constant sabotage, misinformation, and fear, in which everyone is a target.
(Music Sales America). Here is the keenly-awaited sequel to David Sanger's Beginner's Tutor, Play the Organ. Volume Two continues the course of study commenced and can be used to equal advantage by those who began with the first volume and those who already have a basic keyboard facility and music reading ability. Manual-playing, pedalling, co-ordination, national styles of Baroque organ playing and hymn playing techniques are all subjects dealt with in depth. Advice on registration, improvisation, plus exercises and studies and over sixty pieces.
These pieces are of tremendous charm, and make ideal tutorial material as they are very easy, with simple pedal parts. They are ideal as quiet voluntaries for liturgical use.

Native canoe routes of Maine, with translations of place names, are described in the context of Northeastern geological development and Indian prehistoric culture in the use of birch bark canoes on rivers, lakes, carries, and coastal routes, according to the archaeological and historical record, informed by accounts of early explorers.

Audiences and performers alike will find these five pieces great fun. Lefebure-Wely's music is always colourful, sometimes playfully sentimental, sometimes jauntily vulgar, and never dull. The volume includes the composer's best-known pieces."
