University of Chicago Ebook Sale, Part VI.
Six days of markdowns. Wow.
I know that some of you have been waiting with bated breath to know if there was going to be another UCP markdown, for Monday. ha Well, you won't have to wait any longer. It's here. I "have to" believe that this will be the last day. But if I get a chance I'll Google the sale and see if I can find out for sure. Once again, here are all of the UCP ebook sale titles, sorted by price low to high. I know what I'll be spending a good part of my Labor Day doing. |

I think I'm done. Nine volumes of the ancient Greek tragedies, two other ancient texts, two books on the Second World War, one about New York, one about religion and one social/intellectual analysis of an aspect of American history. Oy!

Unfortunately for me, the shorts series didn't appeal to me. The more expensive ones did. That's my luck. ha |

Thanks for the posts. It looks like Charles River Editors has gone high-tech. The U.S. link near the bottom of the first post doesn't work. I tried replacing "co.uk" in the U.K URL for ".com," and that didn't work either. This is a functional link to that series (including the ones for kids), sorted by price low to high. Prices start at $2.99 USD.: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_st_pr...price-asc-rank. I wonder if the one on the assassination of JFK is appropriate for younger kids. I haven't looked at it, so I don't know. Just a "heads up." Last edited by GtrsRGr8; 09-08-2015 at 03:35 AM. |

University of Chicago Ebook Sale, Part VII.
I just found out that my theory has been blown out of the water. The theory that I'm talking about is that the University of Chicago Press would add ebooks to their sale only through Monday, September 7 (the U.S. national holiday Labor Day, and the last day of the long weekend).
I wish that I was kidding, but I'm not. I just checked the list that I've been using of UCP ebooks at Amazon, which list I have linked to in my posts about the sale. And I noticed new ebooks that I had not seen before. This would have to be considered Tuesday's markdowns. When will this end??? Is there an end??? ![]() Here's that link, again: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_pg_2?...qid=1441685328. |

Highly Rated Biography of William Faulkner, Using Newly-Available Sources. 99 Cents!
That's a markdown of 92% from the regular digital price!
This book is big, too, with 532 pages. One Matchless Time. By Jay Parini. Rated 4.5 stars, but from only 13 reviews at Amazon; rated 3.91, from 139 reviews at GoodReads. Print list price $16.99; regular(?) digital price $12.62; Kindle price now $0.99. HarperCollins e-books, publisher. 532 pages. http://www.amazon.com/One-Matchless-...7M334SE53BQN50. Book Description William Faulkner was a literary genius, and one of America's most important and influential writers. Drawing on previously unavailable sources -- including letters, memoirs, and interviews with Faulkner's daughter and lovers -- Jay Parini has crafted a biography that delves into the mystery of this gifted and troubled writer. His Faulkner is an extremely talented, obsessive artist plagued by alcoholism and a bad marriage who somehow transcends his limitations. Parini weaves the tragedies and triumphs of Faulkner's life in with his novels, serving up a biography that's as engaging as it is insightful. |
