Flannery O'Connor spent most of her life in Georgia. Most of
O'Connor's fiction is also set in the state, in locales rich in
symbolism and the ambience of southern rural and small-town life.
Filled with contemporary and historical photos, this guide
introduces O'Connor's readers to the places where the great writer
lived and worked--places whose features and details sometimes found
their way into her fiction.
The guide describes such places as O'Connor's childhood home in
Savannah; the Governor's Mansion, Cline House, and Central State
Hospital in Milledgeville; and the family farm, Andalusia. Numerous
facts about O'Connor and the people closest to her are woven into
the site descriptions, as are critical observations about her
Catholicism, her acute sense of character and place, and her fierce
sense of humor.
Features include: More than fifty full-color contemporary
photographs and numerous black-and-white historical imagesAn
overview and chronology of O'Connor's life and legacyMaps to sites
in Savannah, Milledgeville, and the house and grounds at

Here is the book to learn classical liberalism from the ground up,
written by the foremost historian in the Austrian tradition--Ralph
Raico. He takes on all comers, disposing of all opponents of the
market from Keynesians to Marxists and everyone in between, with
crackling prose and sizzling wit. The liberal history comes alive
with Raico's pen, and at the same time quenches the reader's thirst
for detail, infusing an excitement that urges the reader to further
explore. Raico's breadth of scholarship is on full display,
combining insights and arguments from disparate points. He provides
clarity to a history that is often slanted and distorted. Multiple
reference lists contained in the book will serve as a classical
liberal treasure trove for students and scholars for decades to
come.

Family issues simmering with humor. My Brother's Pants Don't Fit Me
is a "read-to" story for children up to age 90 who love the
ridiculous in words (and pictures for kids who don't read). Intent
is to challenge with concepts and 'big' words to be explored at the
appropriate age with an adult reader at "story time." When the
revised plan doesn't exactly satisfy, the child makes the real
world acceptable.
Learning about respect for the "wildness" of animals.
