In his seventh novel Bram Stoker of "Dracula" fame combines adventure, mystery, romance and the supernatural into a world where both mystery and science can exist side by side. In 1902, the New York Tribune wrote: "A great treasure of the Armada, hidden in a sea cave and sought not only by the hero but by the descendant of the Spaniard who shipped it, provides a starting point of excitement. A gang of ruthless murderers, thieves, and kidnappers in pursuit of the bewitching American heiress who is the heroine furnish forth enough suspense and terror for three ordinary tales."Annotated version with additional footnotes.

Sleepy Hollow is renowned for its ghosts and the haunting atmosphere that pervades the imaginations of its inhabitants and visitors.

In the bosom of one of those spacious coves which indent the eastern shore of the Hudson, at that broad expansion of the river denominated by the ancient Dutch navigators the Tappan Zee, and where they always prudently shortened sail and implored the protection of St. Nicholas when they crossed, there lies a small market town or rural port, which by some is called Greensburgh, but which is more generally and properly known by the name of Tarry Town...

Harriet A. Jacobs’s Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl, Written by Herself is the most important narrative written by a former female slave in antebellum America. Published in 1861 and under the penname of Linda Brent, the book is a powerful indictment on black women’s exploitation in America. “Slavery is terrible for men, but it is far more terrible for women”, declares Jacobs before describing the degradation of slavery and the sexual oppression she experienced as a black woman.

Cheeky and clever, and often darkly subversive, these poems are vintage Silverstein. His poems are humorously seditious, full of rhyme, rhythm, and energetic word play. Silverstein's pen-and-ink drawings extend and explain the words, making them the perfect accompaniment.La risa viene andando en verso, esta poesía es un ramillete de travesuras, de ideas ingeniosas, y de ocurrencias graciosas. Cada poema es un alarde agudo y ocurrente que se convierte en motivo de broma. Silverstein ha unido el talento literario y la capacidad para crear sutiles ilustraciones humorísticas que forman parte de los poemas, que son una estrofa más, y que dan la clave de cómo se ha de leer el libro.

Presenting economics as the underlying connection between seemingly unrelated events or phenomena, this international bestseller establishes a new way of looking at the world. The authors explain the hidden side of everything, from violent crime, parenting, and baby names to the Ku Klux Klan and real estate, demonstrating how economics isn't just about numbers, but a study of incentives—how people get what they need and want when others need and want the same thing.

Los autores explican el lado escondido de todo, desde crímenes violentos y nombres de bebes hasta el Ku Klux Klan y bienes raíces, demostrando que el estudio de la economía es un estudio de los incentivos: el modo en que las personas obtienen lo que desean o necesitan, especialmente cuando otras personas desean o necesitan lo mismo.
