Book Description
The world of Kildare, expatriate princess of Faerie, gets turned upside down when Goodfellow, the deadly, mischievous sprite immortalized in Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, comes to New York. Convinced that Goodfellow's intentions are considerably less than pure, Kildare sifts through his trail of riddles and lies, trying to figure out just what is he up to. Her search leads to an underground soul market, where the immortal spirits of humans are bought, sold and traded - and to the memory of Kildare's long forgotten love.

Book Description
"In The Market Day of the Soul, James T. Dennison examines the question of the supreme Christian holy day, the Sabbath. He shows how the Sabbath emerged from the imprecision of the sixteenth century to become a celebrated cause in pre-Revolutionary England. Finally, he demonstrates the triumph of the Puritan Sabbath during the Revolution, a triumph that continued to make the English Sabbath distinctive into the nineteenth century. In the course of this investigation, Dennison shows that the Puritan view of the Lord's Day became the dominate view - both theologically and practically - by the latter half of the seventeenth century, in spite of challenges it faced from the ""medieval"" position of the Court party and the Seventh-day Sabbatarians. Table of Contents: Preface Introduction Chapter 1 - The Formative Years: The Sabbath and the Desire for a Pure Reformation, 1532-1603 Chapter 2 - The Restless Years: The Sabbath in the Era of the Book of Sports, 1603-1633 Chapter 3 - Years of No Rest: The Sabbath Pamphlet Wars, Laud and the Revolution, 1633-1650 Chapter 4 - Years of Relative Rest: The Sabbath as an English Custom, 1650-1700 Chapter 5 - Conclusion Appendix I - Articles of Visitation Appendix II - The Puritan Attitude Toward Recreation Table Illustrating Doctrinal Differences and Similarities"

Book Description
Sklansky traces a shift in American social thought as the gradual demise of the household economy rendered proprietary independence an increasingly embattled ideal. Amid the widening class divide, nineteenth-century social theorists devised a new science of American society that reconceived freedom in terms of psychic self-expression instead of economic self-interest, and they redefined democracy in terms of cultural kinship rather than social compact.
