.A Very Private Woman: The Life and Unsolved Murder of Presidential Mistress Mary Meyer
Search: Washington
by: Nina Burleigh

1998-11
This book doesn't answer some intriguing questions: Who killed Mary Meyer? What was the motive? What did Mary Meyer feel about her lover, John Kennedy, and his assassination? The author does take the subject seriously and gives Mary Meyer the respect she deserves. However, this book creates more questions than answers.

.The Legend of Sleepy Hollow (Dover Thrift)
Search: Washington
by: Washington Irving

April 22, 1996
First, a note on the edition. I have a copy of The Modern Library 2001 paperback; this is a handsome, compact volume, complete with concise notes and an introduction from a modern author. It is well bound with quality paper, and I rather like the classy illustration on the cover.

The work itself is, of course, a classic, albeit - in the UK at least - a lesser known one. The title is somewhat misleading; to my mind, '... and Other Stories' implies a collection of narrative-based short stories, but that is not really what you get. Irving's original title and the subtitle here, 'The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent.', is a better description. 'Geoffry Crayon' is a fictional front for Irving; his sketchbook is a collection of miscellaneous ... Read More:
