Illustrated by Chris Diket 

A bayou version of a classic, this full-color update of the beloved fairy tale introduces a new generation to Cajun culture. As Petite Rouge paddles her pirogue to visit her sick grandmère, she is unaware that lurking among the cypress trees is the sneaky gator her mother warned her about. The gator Taille-Taille would love to gobble up Petite Rouge, and her cloak too! Detailed illustrations bring the distinct attributes of the south to life. Action-filled scenes highlight the drama and uncertainty of what unfolds. What will happen to Petite Rouge? And why can't she find her doux grandmère? French words and phrases accent the story and the unique nature of Acadiana.

The plot of GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT concerns the experiences of a young Gentile writer who poses as a Jew in order to secure material on anti-Semitism for a series of magazine articles. A thesis novel concerning the social and economic aspects of anti-Semitism in American life. Timely when issued in 1947 - timely today. Number 1 position on the New York Times Best Seller List for five straight months in 1947. Film version chosen as Best Picture of the Year by the New York Film Critics Circle. "If a masterful work of art is one which probes deep into the consciousness of the beholder to create a lasting impression and to forge and refine the higher human impulses, then GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT deserves such a description. It is a rare combination of absorbing story and statement of a current problem." - The Indianapolis Star

1st Edition book

Set in 1940 Georgia, it is the story of W. Seaborn Effingham, Colonel U.S. Army, retired, who returns to his home town of Fredericksville. The colonel offers to write a weekly column for a local paper, covering the war in Europe. But after many years away from Fredericksville, Effingham doesn't understand how its citizens have abdicated all government to a small, one-party clique, the Home Folks Party. In his colorful, detailed account of Revolutionary and Civil War local historywith occasional attention paid to the growing World Warthe Colonel's column stirs up the powers that be. The community is split over whether to renovate or tear down the town courthouse, and there's a showdown in which Effingham is a catalyst. Fleming's barbs seem gentle, but they go deep in this delightful satire as we watch the odd, single-minded, thoroughly upstanding Colonel bring to bear the forces of honesty and common sense.

The Bible in Narrative Form

In a contemporary and creatively unique way, The Story of Stories is a narrative that traces the story of the Bible from beginning to end. The central theme follows the activities of Yahweh, presented as a fully-rounded personality, as He works to restore His shattered relationship with man.

The Story of Stories

c12bff94-e1ab-4cc5-a31a-e3804fbf8f57-1

This is only one of the many revelations in Eugenia Price's intimate account of the many months she spent sorting through voluminous historical research and writing Margaret's Story, the third novel in her Florida trilogy.

Published as a companion to the novel, this journal offers a fascinating view of the author at work as the novel developed week by week.

Here, for the sharing, is her excitement as her story's characters emerge-living, breathing "people" who become for the duration more real to her than those who are part of her day-to-day existence. Here, too, is her joy on "good" writing days, her anxiety in times of creative uncertainty, her frustrations at unavoidable interruptions-and her courage in resisting discouragement and discomfort (through most of this period she was plagued with vertigo caused by labyrinthitis). From time to time she isolated herself in a St. Augustine motel to work undisturbed, but when at home on St. Simons Island she managed to continue with the novel and be at the same time a caring friends to everyone who needed her.
