Description
[New Haven, Connecticut]: Yale School of Drama, 1966. Unbound. Very Good. Poster (25 ¼" x 38"). Designed by Joel Katz for Megan Terry's rock musical *Viet Rock* at the Yale Repertory Theatre on October 11-23, 1966 with music composed by Marianne de Pury. Gently rolled, tiny pin holes at the edges and corners with tiny nicks and tears at the bottom corners, a couple small dampstains at the margins, faint creases, copyright label affixed to lower edge, tape residue and a small abrasion on verso, very good. Terry is an American playwright, screenwriter, and a founding member of the experimental theater group, The Open Theater in New York City. She created *Viet Rock* using a technique she developed called "transformation", in which actors would improvise dialogue in an attempt to "transform" into characters. *Viet Rock* was the first play to address America's involvement in the Vietnam War, and also the first rock musical to be written and performed in the United States. The play was described by Terry as a "folk war movie" about the "futilities and irrelevancies" of war. The poster here is for the play's preview run at the Yale Repertory Theatre before opening off-Broadway. Cast member, Gerome Ragni along with fellow actor James Rando, would go on to use the anti-war theme and Terry's "transformation" technique to create the rock musical, *Hair.* A striking poster for a groundbreaking and influential rock musical.

ISBN-13: 9781584779681; ISBN-10: 1584779683. Paperback. New. $26.95 * One of the major works of the Virginian John Taylor of Caroline [1753-1824]. Little-known today, Taylor's work is of great significance in the political and intellectual history of the South and is essential for understanding the constitutional theories that Southerners asserted to justify secession in 1861. Construction Construed and Constitutions Vindicated was Taylor's response to a series of post-War of 1812 developments including John Marshall's Supreme Court decision in McCulloch v. Maryland, the widespread issuance of paper money by banks, proposals for a protective tariff, and the attempt to bar slavery from Missouri. Along with many other Southerners, Taylor feared that these and other measures were undermining the foundations of American republicanism. He saw them as the attempt of an "artificial capitalist sect" to corrupt the virtue of the American people and upset the proper constitutional balance between state and federal authority in favor of a centralized national government.

"Steve", reminiscing about the early days on the Tonight Show. 4to. 1 page, personal letterhead, Van Nuys, California, February 21st 2000 Written just a few months before his death, to long time friend and collaborator Herb Sargent. The letter reads in full: "I'm hurrying to finish up a book manuscript, the first half of which will consist of jokes in the public domain and the second part of which is jut old monologues and sketches I've written over the years. Just now, as I was looking at one of them, I got to laughing aloud because the routine sounds in that marvelous, crazy style as some of the monologues you and Stan used to write for me back in the Tonight show days. As in the case of the Letters - To - The - Editor routines, we should imagine a drummer giving lots of rim-shots and the audience playing the part of the preacher's flock. Anyway - I thought you would get a kick out of it." Usual folds otherwise in very good (+) condition.

Description
Brooklyn, New York: N.p., 1872. Fine.. A promotional leaflet for a "Grand National Church Fair" to be held in Brooklyn to help support the "Erection of the Bethesda Mission House, and the Founding of a Public Library and Free Reading Rooms for Mission Purposes". To be held in Brooklyn Hall, the event claims to sell tickets for one dollar each and offers prizes totaling $86,780 (approx. $2 million in 2025 dollars). The prizes are listed, and include life insurance policies, furniture, carriages, silverware, watches, Bibles, prints, oil paintings, pianos, melodeons (accordions), and even real estate, with the "1st Grand Gift" being "One Elegant House and Lot, value $12,000". Includes a brief appeal from the Rev. William C. Clark (1817-1875), discussing the fair's aim and the importance of missionary work. Folding leaflet (5.25" by 3.25" folded) with wood engraved image of the prospective church design. What makes this flyer "dubious" is an article published in the Brooklyn Eagle claiming Clark was a charlatan. The article, dated Aug. 9, 1872, reads in part: "This circular contains a great amount of pietistical twaddle ... After some inquiry, we confess to grave doubts as to whether this individual possesses the means or the credit which would warrant him in offering such an array of splendid prizes". Another article in the Brooklyn Union dated Dec. 19, 1872 reports that committee member names were used by Clark without their consent. Equally, there are newspaper articles with his obituary in 1875 confirming his status as a Reverend at a "Myrtle Street Mission" in Brooklyn, and another praising his efforts for the temperance movement. There is also a March 20, 1873 Brooklyn Daily Times article that confirms the event actually took place, albeit in a less grand fashion than promised: "The Rev. William Clark's grand lottery gift concert, over which there has been such a flurry in Brooklyn theological circles, was given Tuesday. night. Eighty thousand dollars' worth of gifts ... and over 20,000 tickets has been sold. The proceeds were to be given to Bethesda mission. After a sort of half concert and half minstrel show, the drawing was begun, and less than $1,000 worth of presents were distributed, only one of which was valued at. more than $75. There is much complaint over the swindle." The motives of Clark remain tantalizingly up in the air. At best, he executed an ill-conceived plan to raise funds for a good cause; at worst, he swindled thousands of dollars from Brooklyn residents for his own purposes.

A freak accident. One man's struggle to survive. From the author of Project Hail Mary comes "a hugely entertaining novel that reads like a rocket ship afire" (Chicago Tribune). "Brilliant . . . a celebration of human ingenuity [and] the purest example of real-science sci-fi for many years . . . utterly compelling."-The Wall Street Journal Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he's alive-and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. Chances are, though, he won't have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plain-old "human error" are much more likely to kill him first. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet. Drawing on his ingenuity, his engineering skills-and a relentless, dogged refusal to quit-he steadfastly confronts one seemingly insurmountable obstacle after the next. Will his resourcefulness be enough to overcome the impossible odds against him? NAMED ONE OF PASTE'S BEST NOVELS OF THE DECADE "A hugely entertaining novel [that] reads like a rocket ship afire . . . Weir has fashioned in Mark Watney one of the most appealing, funny, and resourceful characters in recent fiction."-Chicago Tribune "As gripping as they come . . . You'll be rooting for Watney the whole way, groaning at every setback and laughing at his pitchblack humor. Utterly nail-biting and memorable."-Financial Times (Publisher).

Description
Sarasota, Florida: Pineapple Press, Inc., 2004. Second Edition. Octavo, softbound (full-color photograph illustrated stiff wrappers), 163 pp. Fine. From lower cover: The shallow-bowl basin south of Gainesville called Paynes Prairie is known to most Florida travelers only as the vast, low, open area they see from their cars speeding north or south on I-75. Paynes Prairie is now a nature sanctuary crisscrossed by hiking and biking paths and dotted with observation posts on both sides of Highway 441. Not since naturalist William Bartram’s 1774 journal has a book been written about this unique area. The wildlife and plants of the Prairie fascinated Bartram, who penned fantastic descriptions of its tranquility and beauty. Lars Andersen chronicles the many changes that have occurred on the Prairie since Bartram’s journal was published -- indeed since prehistoric animals and then people chose to settle on the Prairie and partake of its natural riches. But change has been the hallmark of Paynes Prairie, whose history is as fascinating as that of Florida itself.
