York Minster: The Great East Window (Corpus Vitraearum Medii Aevi: Great Britain)

York Minster's medieval stained glass is without parallel in England, both for quality and quantity. The great east window, the largest in the Minster, contains some of the finest fifteenth-century glass in Europe. The splendor of its design and layout, and the brilliance of its painting and color, are acknowledged wherever the glass is discussed. The 188 color and black and white illustrations in this volume reveal the tremendous sweep of the window's subject-matter, ranging from the Creation of the World to visionary scenes of the Last Judgment, depicted in dramatic detail. Tom French's unique grasp of the material enriches his full description of the glass.

This next stage in Tom French's majestic treatment of York Minster's glass covers the brilliantly colored St William Window. Painted c.1414, it celebrates the city's only local saint with ninety-five large stained glass panels that tell the story of his life and subsequent miracles at his tomb. This catalog provides valuable illustrations of medieval life and its artistic achievements.

True Crime

St Martins Pr

The fatal night On a warm Florida evening, Karen Gregory saw a familiar face at her door. What the beautiful young woman could not know was that she was staring into the eyes of her killer--a savage monster who would rape her, stab her to death, and leave her battered body on the floor outside the bedroom. The desperate search Detectives frantically sifting through the evidence were tormented by one disturbing question after another: What did the strangely worded note from a friend mean? Why was the house so orderly, when it had been the scene of a frenzied struggle? Why were the bloody footprints on the carpet barefoot? What happened to the white lace teddy missing from Karen's drawer? The shattering discovery Police detective Larry Tosi stayed up nights watching the video of the grisly crime scene, looking for the one telltale clue that would lead him to Karen's killer--until slowly, and with growing horror, he realized that the maniac he was hunting was someone he knew...someone he called a friend.

St. Martin's Paperbacks

A micro-preemie fights for survival in this extraordinary and gorgeously told memoir by her parents, both award-winning journalists. Juniper French was born four months early, at 23 weeks' gestation. She weighed 1 pound, 4 ounces, and her twiggy body was the length of a Barbie doll. Her head was smaller than a tennis ball, her skin was nearly translucent, and through her chest you could see her flickering heart. Babies like Juniper, born at the edge of viability, trigger the question: Which is the greater act of love -- to save her, or to let her go? Kelley and Thomas French chose to fight for Juniper's life, and this is their incredible tale. In one exquisite memoir, the authors explore the border between what is possible and what is right. They marvel at the science that conceived and sustained their daughter and the love that made the difference. They probe the bond between a mother and a baby, between a husband and a wife. They trace the journey of their family from its fragile beginning to the miraculous survival of their now thriving daughter.
