Description
1986. First Edition. Signed. BUKOWSKI, Charles. You Get So Alone at Times That It Just Makes Sense. Santa Rosa: Black Sparrow Press, 1986. Octavo, original half violet cloth, original acetate dust jacket. $2200.Signed limited first edition, number 34 of only 100 special copies handbound in boards by Earle Gray and featuring an original signed silkscreen print of an illustration by Charles Bukowski, additionally signed by Bukowski on the limitation page.In this collection of poetry, an aging Bukowski looks back on his childhood, recounting some of its most poignant moments in his characteristic style. Bukowski’s “work is a natural culmination of the ongoing revolt against formalism, the academic, and the intellectual that has periodically energized American poetry since its inception… His effects are primarily narrative, and involve the collision of his own gruff, funny, idiomatic voice with the random incidents of his daily life” (Hamilton, 76). Published simultaneously with a paperback issue, 500 hardcover trade copies and 401 hardcover signed copies. The colophon cites ""126 numbered copies,"" but the actual numbering states ""34/100"" and Krumhansl agrees with 100 copies. Krumhansl 100d. A very nearly fine copy with minor spotting to text block edges.

Description
London: Bradbury & Evans, 1848 London: Bradbury & Evans, 1848-1850. In the original 24 serial parts (23 & 24 in one volume). First edition. Publisher's yellow paper wrappers with advertisements bound in. A good set with significant toning and wear to extremities, some foxing to text, many spines split, some with remnants of tape repairs. Scarce in the original parts. The History of Pendennis tells the story of the titular character, Arthur Pendennis, who seeks join the ranks of the London elite despite his less-than-wealthy upbringing. Typical of Thackeray's writing, this novel satirizes the trivialities of aristocratic life, leaving readers with a shrewd picture of society in 19th century England. Notably, The History of Pendennis is semiautobiographical, inspired by Thackeray's own experiences as a writer living in London. The protagonist of this story also appears in two of Thackeray's subsequent works, The Newcomes (1853-55) and The Adventures of Philip (1861-1862).. First Edition. Soft Cover. Good.

2009. ISBN-13: 9781584771838; ISBN-10: 1584771836. The Best Treatise on the Subject of Appellate Advocacy Wiener, Frederick Bernays. Briefing and Arguing Federal Appeals. Originally published: Washington, D.C.: BNA Incorporated, 1961. iii (new introduction), xvi, 506 pp. Reprinted 2001, 2009 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. With a New Introduction by Bryan A. Garner, President, LawProse, Inc. ISBN-13: 9781584771838. ISBN-10: 1584771836. Hardcover with dust jacket. New. $49.95 * This book tells how to brief and how to argue a Federal case on appeal. Its primary purpose is to explain to the lawyer how to best persuade a Federal appellate court to decide a case in his favor. It is neither a practice manual nor a text of Federal appellate procedure, being written on the assumption that all the procedural steps necessary to perfect the appeal have been or will be timely taken. Consequently this book deals with problems that are common to appeals in whatever Federal court they may be presented. Many of the principles defined and discussed herein are applicable also to the argument, oral and written, of questions of fact and law presented and heard in Federal trial courts. The task of presenting facts and law effectively, the psychology of persuasion, the requirements of candor and accuracy-these are matters common to forensic effort in every courtroom, at every state of a litigated proceeding. In addition to its discussion of appellate advocacy and a description of procedure in the federal appellate courts (Supreme Court, U.S. Court of Appeals, and specialized federal courts), it provides valuable guidelines for writing briefs and appeals and the preparing oral arguments. Among other lessons, it teaches ways to -think before writing, -state facts and phrase issues persuasively, -use argumentative headings, -employ clear, forceful English, -handle questions in oral argument, -use maps and charts effectively and -prevent "forensic halitosis." AALS Law Books Recommended for Libraries List 26, Legal Profession, page 20, "A" Rated. "To get into court and to maintain your right to be there is the object of all pleading and is as important in an appellate court as in a trial court (.) This book is a guide to handling of cases on appeal in the Federal courts by one who is eminently qualified to instruct and direct in this field." --from the foreword by Sherman Minton, Associate Ju.
