Canvas Embellishment Exquisite Needlepoint Stitches Made Simple Corirossi, Linda
Linda Corirossi 1999 Spiral bound New
Brand new book. The purpose of this book is to encourage stitchers to become more creative when working a painted canvas. She entices the reader with the fact that decorative stitches go faster than the basic Continental or Basketweave stitches. While the goal of her canvas work is not to produce a realistic image, she feels that by using texture and shading and choosing fibers that are new, the stitcher will be adding a reflection of individuality. Her bywords are "try, experiment, imagine." Suggestions are given for types of stitches to use to depict clothing, plants, buildings and other architectural forms, plus decorative stitches, trims, accents and backgrounds. Detailed illustrations and clear descriptions make this an excellent reference book. No marks. Amz; 93 pages 49575

The Darkest Days of the War The Battles of Iuka and Corinth Cozzens, Peter
The University of North Carolina Press 1997 0807823201 Hardcover New in New dust jacket
New book and dust jacket. Book club edition. During the late summer of 1862, Confederate forces attempted a three-pronged strategic advance into the North. The outcome of this offensive? The only coordinated Confederate attempt to carry the conflict to the enemy? Was disastrous. The results at Antietam and in Kentucky are well known; the third offensive, the northern Mississippi campaign, led to the devastating and little-studied defeats at Iuka and Corinth, defeats that would open the way for Grant's attack on Vicksburg. Peter Cozzens here presents the first book-length study of these two complex and vicious battles. Drawing on extensive primary research, he details the tactical stories of Iuka? Where nearly one-third of those engaged fell? And Corinth? Fought under brutally oppressive conditions? Analyzing troop movements down to the regimental level. He also provides compelling portraits of Generals Grant, Rosecrans, Van Dorn, and Price, exposing the ways in which their clashing ambitions and antipathies affected the outcome of the campaign. Finally, he draws out the larger, strategic implications of the battles of Iuka and Corinth, exploring their impact on the fate of the northern Mississippi campaign, and by extension, the fate of the Confederacy. ; Civil War America; 1.35 x 9.55 x 6.48 Inches; 389 pages 50310

The Reconciling Community The Rite of Penance Dallen, James
The Liturgical Press 1991 0814660762 Paperback Fine
New book with some age toning.. Unread. Slight scuffing on cover edge. ; Studies in the Reformed Rites of the Church; 1.2 x 8.3 x 5.8 Inches; To disclose the underlying mystery of the Church in relation to Christ and sinners, James Dallen traces the complex development of ecclesial repentance from the Church's first centuries to the present time. He shows that the Church has always worked with sinful members, assisting them to live out the implications of their baptismal conversion and recognizing them as members of its assemblies. It is in this history, the tradition that survives from those who have gone before marked by the sign of faith, that the Church must find the way to exercise the ministry of reconciliation today and in the future. 50071
