A one volume, two book edition of My Brother, Sherlock, the
biography of Sherlock Holmes by his brother, Mycroft Holmes, and
Montague Notations, the autobiography by Sherlock Holmes.
Discovered in 2008 and 2012, these two books are among the most
astounding literary finds of all time. Now, for the first time in
print together, here are the incredible revelations of many of the
timeless questions surrounding the life of Sherlock Holmes and his
brother, Mycroft, in their own words. The Game is Truly Afoot
The autobiography of Sherlock Holmes, written by him in 1929, and
recently discovered as an unpublished manuscript in a book shop in
England by the Editor, Don Libey. In what is, quite possibly, one
of the great literary finds of all time, Holmes reveals details
previously unknown about his life, his education, his work, and
numerous cases that have not been revealed before. Essential
reading for Sherlockians and Holmesians worldwide. A second edition
of this book has been published in late 2013 along with a new
biography of Sherlock Holmes by his brother, Mycroft Holmes. The
newer edition is a two-book, one-volume edition titled "The
Biography and The Autobiography of Sherlock Holmes." and features
the biography, "My Brother, Sherlock," by Mycroft Holmes and
includes "The Autobiography of Sherlock Holmes" by Sherlock Holmes,
as well. It is available through Amazon and is featured on these
pages. We recommend the purchase of the newer, two-book, one volume
edition.
Thoughts on a successful life focused on Reason, Happiness and
Humanism. Written by a grandfather for his grandson as a "guidebook
for a happy life" free of the constraints and restrictions of
self-serving outside influences and the inanities of humankind.
Don Libey's second collection of poems written between 2000 and
2012. Libey's work became more spare, more sensual and more
image-precise as he moved into his sixties. In this collection, the
bone structure of his early studies in Chinese and Japanese poetry
has intensified and defines his theme of spareness.
A Secular Humanist's tour de force, Don Libey's second novel offers
Christian believers rare insight into the true fallacy of God's
Church and a Life in the Lord. Set in Small Town, America, it is
the story of how people of blind faith plant their seed, nurture
their beliefs, and harvest their rewards with their unquestioning
reliance on the mythical divine and revealed Word of God and the
moral rectitude and disaster of Christian teaching. For those for
whom "Jesus is enough" this is a story that reveals the "old-timey
Gospel" as essentially hypocrisy and a simple life with God on your
heart as the primary ingredient for the church to make money and
keep its "believers" enslaved.
A story of growing up in Avon Lake, Ohio in the Golden Age of the
1950's. For the children of the 1950's-Baby Boomers and those just
before-it was their Golden Age, a time of sunny summer days on Lake
Erie and an idyllic childhood in the village of Avon Lake, Ohio.
Writer Don Libey weaves together people, places, scents and sounds
in this coming-of-age reminiscence of a time and place ." . . where
the sun was so warm and the days so endless and we were, simply,
happy." Like Grover's Corners, or Winesburg, Libey recreates a soft
glow of childhood for those who never give up trying to go home; a
sense of place and belonging for those who-regardless of where they
grew up-are always looking for their own lost Avon Lake. A
published poet and author of over a dozen business books, this is
Libey's first prose work. He still lives on the water, this time in
the lovely seaside hamlet made famous by Alfred Hitchcock's The
Birds, Bodega Bay, California north of San Francisco.
