Here is young Sam Clemens—in the world, getting famous, making love—in 155 magnificently edited letters that trace his remarkable self-transformation from a footloose, irreverent West Coast journalist to a popular lecturer and author of The Jumping Frog, soon to be a national and international celebrity. And on the move he was—from San Francisco to New York, to St. Louis, and then to Paris, Naples, Rome, Athens, Constantinople, Yalta, and the Holy Land; back to New York and on to Washington; back to San Francisco and Virginia City; and on to lecturing in Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and New York. Resplendent with wit, love of life, ambition, and literary craft, this new volume in the wonderful Bancroft Library edition of Mark Twain's Letters will delight and inform both scholars and general readers. This volume has been supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Mark Twain Foundation, Jane Newhall, and The Friends of The Bancroft Library.
Seth Kish is restless. Bored with life on the farming borderlands of the Elf nation, he dreams of a more exciting life. When a violent raiding party attacks his village, however, it's more excitement than the young elf had imagined. He is sent for aid, but when things don't go as planned, he quickly finds himself alone, unprepared, and in grave danger. Before he knows it, he is embroiled in a dangerous conflict between nations; stalked by an ageless, homicidal wizard; and menaced by unimaginable creatures. As he fights to survive he uncovers secrets from his family's past, the first of several trials he will endure on the path to becoming a man. He must travel through perilous lands and find a way to outwit beings of powerful magic that threaten everyone he loves. In his quest he'll turn to the help of brave new friends and rely on reserves of strength he didn't know he possessed. Each decision, each interaction, each escape brings him ever closer to the one confrontation he dreads. Along his inexorable but mystical transformation from boy to man, Seth must learn the true value of integrity, the thrill of love, and the honor of sacrifice as he grows toward his destiny.
The Interwoven Gospel Accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John is the author's attempt to tell in one telling the four accounts of the life and teachings of Jesus Christ while He walked on the earth. Every effort has been made to include, if possible, 'all' the words that were spoken by Jesus and that were used in describing the events surrounding His life as they were revealed in the four accounts. Jesus said, "Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God." The author believes that every word that was spoken by Jesus and that every word that was used to describe the events and teachings of His life were God-breathed, thus, inspired of God. Therefore, the author believes that it is imperative that every statement or question or phrase or word that was used by the inspired authors of the four accounts, if possible, should also be used in this one telling in the interwoven Gospel Accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. It was the author's hope to remain as true as possible to the four sacred texts. All these words came from God; they all came out of His mouth! May God bless this work; and may God bless you as you read it! "These have been written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you may have life in His name" (Jn.20:31).

What is the exact nature of the right to a trademark? What is the basis of relief in trademark cases of unfair competition? Schechter unravels these problems as he traces the development of the law of trademarks from medieval times to the early twentieth century. ". . . invaluable for starting scholarly research." --Julius J. Marke, A Catalogue of the Law Collection of New York University (1953) 869 "Mr. Schechter has turned up much interesting and hitherto unpublished material concerning the use of guild and artisans' marks in the Middle Ages in England. His chapter (V) on "The Development of Trade Mark Law in the Cutlery Trades," is particularly valuable and contains matter not before in print. It makes understandable the reference to registers of the cutlers' companies in the English Trade Marks Act of 1875." --Edward S. Rogers, Michigan Law Review 24 (1925-1926) 98 Frank Isaac Schechter [1890-1937] received the first doctor of jurisprudence degree given by Columbia University.
