Some of Shakespeare's plays give us the impression of wisdom or universal insight because they insistently remind us of anxieties rooted in philosophical doubt. Armed with a fresh analysis of Shakespeare's inherited resources for articulating such anxieties, Skulsky shows that in four plays - Hamlet, Measure for Measure, King Lear and Othello - the drama of doubt in search of an exit gives its own kind of urgency to the more familiar Shakespearean drama of action and motive. The result is a book that challenges a good measure of 20th century Shakespearean scholarship. The four plays emerge from this study as insidiously telling exercises in the undermining of our working faith in the rationality of moral choice and the possibility of knowing other minds. The author points out that Shakespeare takes calculated risks with our personal interest in his heroes by assigning to them not only contemptible actions but disturbing convictions. In some of the plays, such convictions end by looking just as plausible as they do at the outset. In others, Shakespeare seems to attempt a special kind of tragic affirmation and compassion - an affirmation that is designed to encompass unrelieved pessimism, and a compassion that finds a place even for the worst of the damned.

Beginning in the 1920s as a lowly crop-dusting operation in Louisiana, Delta Air Lines had, by its fiftieth anniversary, down to become one of the largest companies in the industry and one of the most consistently profitable. First published in 1979, this is a comprehensive account of the growth and development of Delta’s strategy and style, the steady expansion of its routes, its relationship with federal regulatory agencies, and the everchanging composition of its fleet. Because the underlying spirit of the Delta enterprise owed so much to its founder, C.E. Woolman, this is also an engaging portrait of the man who came to be classed alongside Eastern’s Eddie Rickenbacker and Pan American’s Juan Trippe as a pioneer of commercial aviation.

Katharine Du Pre Lumpkin was born into a prominent Georgia family and raised in a southern society intent on preserving the economic and racial status quo. But as a young woman working with the poor in the sand hills of South Carolina, she began to question what she had been taught. In The Making of a Southerner, Lumpkin re-creates the South of her childhood and records the journey she took from her early instruction as a daughter of the "Lost Cause" to the liberal viewpoints she championed as an adult.
