Yet the book that Mailer has poised on this flawed premise is still full of interest." Michiko Kakutani of the New York Times described Oswald's Tale as a "long-winded and ultimately superfluous book". According to Kakutani: "Mr.

The details of Bohlen's life are given with great minuteness and honesty in his Autobiography (Königsberg, 1841), which is full of interest, and cannot be read without producing a full conviction that he was no less distinguished by his amiability in private life than by his literary acquirements.

Oxford: Alden & Co., 1958; p. 123"Of the women's colleges S. Hugh's has indisputably the best garden, and for many years now it has been under the loving care of Miss Rogers. It is a well- planned garden, and ... full of interest all the year round."--Rohde, Eleanour Sinclair (1932) Oxford's College Gardens.

On the east its boundary streams converge at 800 ft and the flanks of Coniston Old Man and Wetherlam continue to the lake. Above the Duddon, Brim Fell is nipped off by Dow Crag and Grey Friar at an even greater altitude. The area of the fell is therefore small, but full of interest. The western slopes are relatively smooth and fall to Tarn Head Beck.

John Mill found some textual resemblance to minuscule 29. Scrivener found its textual resemblance to minuscule 692, Caspar René Gregory to minuscule 248. According to Scrivener there are a few Greek manuscripts of the New Testament from the 12th century "will be found to equal it in weight and importance". The manuscript presents "a text full of interest, and much superior to that of the mass manuscripts of its age".

With all this he succeeds, not indeed in writing one of the greatest autobiographies, but at least in writing one where the many good things are a delight and which is always full of interest." In The Manchester Guardian, Roger Fulford wrote, "The gifts of understanding and of style, which distinguish this book, lift it above the serried ranks of recollections and memoirs into the realm of literature.Fulford, Roger.

The parish church of St John the Baptist is small but full of interest. It stands a little isolated from the main area of settlement, as is common in some East Anglian parishes. Chiefly dating from the 14th and 15th centuries it comprises the nave (with outward bowing walls), chancel, Victorian vestry and redbrick entrance porch. A west tower is thought to have been removed in the early 18th century - the 'new' west wall is chiefly built of red brick.

It is probably the most inhospitable area in South Africa, arid and largely with infertile soil and highly saline groundwater. Its wildlife, however, both fauna and flora, though sparse, are full of interest. Although the veld is too arid to bloom like that of the West Coast of Namaqualand, even when there is some spring rain, what does appear is highly unusual and often hauntingly beautiful. Vaalputs, a nuclear waste repository, has been sited between Bushmanland and Namaqualand, and acts as a de facto nature reserve.

A young couple, not knowing each other in the past, collided with each other and created boundless rumors and a romance full of interest. Cheng Xiao-Shi is an innocent and honest common young girl, whereas He Qun-Gui is the new super star of singing circle, and the oldest son, out of two, of present speaker of a legislative body. These two parallel lines meet occasionally in the street. He was eluding from paparazzi at that time, but collided with her accidentally, after she was just dumped by her boy friend.

His conversations were full of interest and illumination; "he was always out to elicit the truth, entirely sincere, and disdainful of mere dialect." His insistence on veracity made him a formidable researcher, as Haddon puts it, "the keynote of Rivers was thoroughness. Keenness of thought and precision marked all his work." His research was distinguished by a fidelity to the demands of experimental method very rare in the realms which he was exploring and, although often overlooked, the work that Rivers did in this early period is of immense import as it formed the foundation of all that came later.

The Royal Photographic Society membership list, January 1922 In 1913 Dugmore published his own illustrated book based on this safari, Camera Adventures in the African Wilds about his trip to Kenya. In the same year he published his illustrated book based on his Newfoundland experiences, The Romance of the Newfoundland Caribou. In this publication Dugmore declared that the, Newfoundland caribou stag, "is perhaps the handsomest of all the Caribou, even though he is not the largest and does not carry the longest horns. Not only is he a thoroughly handsome creature, but his life is unusually full of interest." c.

In 1921, Hardie delivered a lecture to the Print-Collectors' Club in which he discussed Daniell's plates. He has described them as "full of interest and technical value, and at the same time curiously modern in their spirit", adding of him: "He reaches a very high level of refined thought and execution in his Borough Bridge." Daniell's Middle East landscapes have provided important documentary evidence of the region during the 1840s. His works were exhibited at Aldeburgh in 1968, and at From Norfolk to Nubia: The Watercolours of E.T. Daniell, an exhibition held at Norwich Castle in 2016.

Which said, on that level it is full of interest. To the very great credit of Dr. Chris Cook, who has been annually (and manually) updating the Cyclopaedia since 1977, it has done a semi- successful job of its madly quixotic project of keeping up with the times." The final page of the final edition summarizes "The Story of Pears, 1897–2017" and concludes: "The single most important factor in the Pears success story, and the key to its truly unique publishing phenomenon, is that it is [was] the only book of its kind to be fully revised and updated by a team of experts every year.

Embittered like Timon, and his confidence in political integrity shaken, if not wholly lost, he voluntarily exiled himself from political strife. The life record of such a man as ex-Judge Whiting, so full of activity, extending through such a period of years and so intimately associated with many events of stirring character connected with the past history of the city, is full of interest. To epitomize these events is only necessary, of course, of a man so widely known. Born in the city of Brooklyn on the 23rd of April, 1809, and having enjoyed fine educational advantages in his youth, he early selected the law as his profession.

She then moved to Peebles where she held religious classes for the local women in the house she bought. In later life she wrote Aunt Janet's Legacy to Her Nieces which she was persuaded to publish in 1894. The book was well received, attracting the interest of celebrities such as Lord Francis Napier and William Gladstone who found it "an edifying work, eminently well written, and full of interest." More recently, the book has been the subject of analyses of the behaviour of working-class women in the 19th century, including Melisa Klimaszeski's Writing the Victorian Home, A Nursemaid's Perspective on Maternity and Empire.

As she described her childhood experiences, "In horseback riding she is the first in the village, on trees she climbs like a cat, in swimming at the pool no one can compete with her, milking cows she knows, she harvests, and at night she rides a camel to Rishon LeZion to carry the grapes to the winery. The boys list willingly to her singing in the vineyards, urging her to dance like a Bedouin with a drawn sword around the bonfire".Yehudit Harari, Between the Vineyards, A, Dvir Publishing, 1948. p.18 Life in the young colony of Rehovot was vibrant and full of interest.

" Gatch's earliest known photograph was of the Oregon Insane Asylum in 1891, and in 1894 her photo "Romeo and Juliet" won US$25 first prize from the Photo American magazine. Her prints, shown nationally between 1895 and 1905, were published in international press, as well as locally in Salem and Portland. In 1902 Camera Craft reviewed a Los Angeles exhibition, writing, "Miss Gatch was represented by several new and striking prints. 'Spinning Song' (reproduced), being especially good, halation in this case being turned to good pictorial advantage." Another Camera Craft review said of her costal images, " ‘Driftwood’ and ‘Across the Dunes’ are full of interest.

On the December 7, 1848, Emory Washburn of Lowell gave an address to members of government and many other citizens assembled from the varies portions of the commonwealth at the new Reform School in Westborough. _Excerpts of the Address_ > The experiment which is here begun is full of interest to every generous > mind. It represents the state in her true relation, of a parent seeking out > her erring children, and laying aside the stern severity of Justice while > struggling for their reform. There is a fitness that this first experiment, > in this country by an entire body politic, to reform the young by an > institution for punitive discipline, should be made by Massachusetts.

Divided into twenty-four, or even a smaller number, of separate communities, we shall see our internal trade burdened with numberless restraints and exactions; communication between distant points and sections obstructed or cut off; our sons made soldiers to deluge with blood the fields they now till in peace; the mass of our people borne down and impoverished by taxes to support armies and navies, and military leaders at the head of their victorious legions becoming our lawgivers and judges. The loss of liberty, of all good government, of peace, plenty, and happiness, must inevitably follow a dissolution of the Union. In supporting it, therefore, we support all that is dear to the freeman and the philanthropist. The time at which I stand before you is full of interest.

She then reviews, for the audience reading the Occult Review the trends and trials of western mystical encounter: > The West has never known an epoch more fruitful than the present in cults > and philosophies for the development of man's psychic powers, and for the > explanation of laws which relate the visible to the invisible realities.

Lord Minto also took great interest in the development of the Canadian military and emphasized the need for training and professional development. He was appointed honorary Lieutenant-Colonel of the Governor General's Foot Guards Regiment on 1 December 1898 and was subsequently appointed Honorary Colonel, a tradition that has continued with the post of Governors General to this day. He was appointed a Privy Counsellor on 11 August 1902, following an announcement of the King's intention to make this appointment in the 1902 Coronation Honours list published in June. On his trip back to Britain in 1904, having finished his term as Canada's Governor General, Lord Minto wrote in his journal "... so our life in Canada is over and it has been a great wrench parting from so many friends and leaving a country which I love, and which has been very full of interest to me".
