  • A Matter of Time: A Novel

    Bea Henry

    eBook
    Graduation is just around the corner for high school senior Avery Mitchell. After four years of hard work and dedication, she’s about to find out if she’s made valedictorian and whether she’s been accepted by the best colleges in the nation. Though she once had high expectations for high school—of parties, proms, boyfriends, and rule-breaking—Avery put those dreams to bed a long time ago to focus on more important things. She’s perfectly content to spend her last semester studying for tests, taking care of her family, and secretly pining after her best friend Win. That is, until Win falls for Avery’s childhood friend, whom she had a devastating falling-out with years ago, and the mysterious and confident Carver Blankenship suddenly asks Avery for a ride to school. Avery realizes it’s her last chance to face her fears and experience everything she’s missed out on, but is two months really enough time?

  • Stories of Bird Life: A Book of Facts and Anecdotes, Illustrative of the Habits and Intelligence of the Feathered Tribes

    Henry Berthoud

    Paperback (Ulan Press, Aug. 31, 2012)
    This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
