The Complete Smiley. John le Carré's George Smiley is one of the great characters of 20th century fiction and the way he threads, weaves, ducks and dives his way through the complexities of the Cold War has given us some of the century's most enthralling stories.
Recruited into the "Circus" in the late 1920s, when he might so easily have become an Oxford don, George Smiley spends the 1930s and early 1940s working undercover in Nazi Germany in daily fear of betrayal and death.
Recalled in 1943, he marries - to general astonishment - the beautiful but eternally unfaithful Lady Ann Sercomb. With the end of the war, he returns to Oxford for a life of scholarly contemplation among the lesser German poets. But rising tension between Soviet Russia and the West draw him back to the Circus as a Cold War warrior.
Greco & Roman Dramas. The art of drama developed in the ancient Greek city-state of Athens in the late sixth century B.C. From the religious chants honoring Dionysus arose the first tragedies, which centered on the gods and Greece’s mythical past. In the fifth century. Greek audiences voted on the best dramas produced and performed at the Great Dionysia Theatre. These plays are as enthrolling as they must have been thousands of years ago. This collection has been compiled from generous donations from collectors and I believe it to be the most comprehensive collection freely available.Recruited into the "Circus" in the late 1920s, when he might so easily have become an Oxford don, George Smiley spends the 1930s and early 1940s working undercover in Nazi Germany in daily fear of betrayal and death.

Rumpole of the Bailey. COMING SOON. Currently on Page 8. Rumpole loves the courtroom. His skill at defending his clients is legendary among the criminal classes. The Timson clan of "minor villains" (primarily thieves) regularly rely on Rumpole to get them out of their latest bit of trouble with the law. Rumpole is proud of his successful handling of the Penge Bungalow murders "alone and without a leader" (that is, as a "junior" barrister without a QC) early in his career and of his extensive knowledge of bloodstains and typewriters. Cross-examination is one of his favourite activities, and he disdains barristers who lack either the skill or courage to ask the right questions. His courtroom zeal gets him into trouble from time to time.
Just William. William Brown is one of the most popular fictional characters of all time. Richmal Crompton's brilliant, timeless stories have delighted several generations of readers, both children and adults alike.
Incredibly, the William books span five decades. In addition to the wonderful adventure, fun, and humour of the books, they provide a unique portrait of the changing landscape of a typical English village (William's home) during those fifty years.
