Offering  "The Evening Star" by Larry McMurtry 

Hardcover with dust jacket,

ISBN 0671685198 

Simon & Schuster 1992   pp.637

McMurtry takes us deep into the heart of Texas, and deep into the heart of one of the most memorable characters of our time, Aurora Greenway -- along with her family, friends, and lovers -- in a tale of affectionate wit, bittersweet tenderness, and the unexpected turns that life can take. This is Larry McMurtry at his very best: warm, compassionate, full of comic invention, an author so attuned to the feelings, needs, and desires of his characters that they possess a reality unique in American fiction.

 There had always been MacKenzies and Colebrooks at Blue Willow, their histories entangled like the graceful branches of the rare willow trees that thrived there. Artemas Colebrook and Lily MacKenzie shared more than that history, their souls bound to each other and to the land the day they held tiny Likely minutes after her birth. But the tragedy that has brought Lily back to the small farm where she spent her childhood has also made Artemas's brothers and sisters her bitter enemies. Torn between family loyalties and their shared sense of destiny, Artemas and Lily must come to terms with a childhood devotion that has turned to bittersweet desire, a passion that could destroy all they have struggled for - even Blue Willow itself.

No Greater Love 


 Danielle Steel 


 It was the maiden voyage of the "Titanic," the greatest ship ever built, and in one fatal, unforgettable night, the sea shattered the lives and future of an extraordinary family, the Winfields. Edwina Winfield, retuming from her engagement trip to England with her fiance and her family, instantly becomes a woman mourning the death of her parents and the man she loved. She retums to San Francisco with her five younger siblings and takes responsibilities at the family newspaper and at home that are overwhelming and unexpected. Edwina is intent on keeping the family together and Phillip, the oldest boy, tries to help before going on the Harvard and the Great War. But madcap George, the source of laughter in the family, is drawn to Hollywood, and his sister Alexis eventually follows him, courting both excitement and disaster in the film world. For twelve years Edwina carefully avoids any romantic involvements, but as each child sets off on his or her own—to Hollywood, to Europe, and elsewhere—Edwina frees herself from the ghosts of those se loved and lost on the "Titanic," Her life is far different than it would have been, but in some ways far more exciting than she expected.

Inside dust-jacket has reference to book. *To be suddenly claimed as husband by a lovely woman, to be recognized as master by a good servant, to fall heir to title and money and to be surrounded by people who claim to be old friends is certainly an experience that comes to few men. A young American found himself in such a situation at a time when he was most in need of the things that make life pleasant, and he yielded to the temptation offered him. His resourcefulness was severely taxed many times by the unique situation, and his experiences make a story difficult to leave when once begun.....


Inside is the AUTHOR'S PREFACE TO THIS FOURTH EDITION:  In the month of October, 1895 among the mountains of Mexico, I met with an adventure which recalled a strange tale I had heard, during a visit in 1887. I cannot vouch for the truth of the tale told to me in '97,I can say it made a deep impression; but when the adventure occurred, a little more than seven years afterward, telling the store became irresistible. (The adventure of 1895, consisted in coming upon the crused and broken body of a man who had wandered over the face of a cliff into a deep canyon. He was breathing when we found him;he lived some hours afterward; he died as he and lived~a mystery. The guide of our party recognized him as the principal man of the tale I had heard told in 1887. The man made his first appearance in Mexico city during summer of 1885.He had conducted himself strangely, and had forgotten his identity.He wandered from town to town. For a time he disappeared, but in November, 1886 he came back to Mexico city, and soon he sailed for England on a ship from Vera Cruz. Before he sailed away he confided to three different men the tale that his memory had been restored; that he was an English peer; that he had been attacked and beaten, on his wedding day; that he had utterly forgotten his own identity since then,until a few months before he sailed to England. He was then returning to claim his heritage and his bride.Three months later, in February, 1887,he reappeared in Mexico and returned to the mountains of Guerrero.To one of the men he confided in, he related that he must have been deceived in his belief in the recovery of his memory;that upon returning to England he discovered that the man he supposed himself to be,had never left that country; that Lord and Lady X,were living happily together;and he, therefore, had no idea who he really was. He explained that the likeness between Lord X and himself was most striking.He declared his purpose to be to return to the mountains, and to die among them, unknown.That is the bare story.Some alterations and changes have been made in this edition,but the one part of my story that is entirely authentic, is the name of its hero: JOHN ASHTON.That was the name by which they mysterious man of the mountains was known. 


Then: signed by author, dated June 4, 1909.

Super interesting tale. A man of mystery.


Good-luck. Super LOW RESERVE!!
