Livre
Hardcover. Etat : Good. No Jacket. Please see any and all photos connected with this listing. No Dustjacket. A bit scuffed but all pages intact and legible. Good reading copy. Clean. No store stamps. --- --- 3 complete novels in one book --- THE MAGICIANS --- This is the lively, unorthodox and revealing story of a middle-aged man who believed his life was over, but discovered it had just begun. Charles Ravenstreet was the kind of high-powered businessman who had no interest outside his work, and no private life but the memory of a youthful episode he did his best to forget. When the directors of his company tactfully asked him to retire, Ravenstreet lost his one reason for being alive. Dismayed at the prospect of an empty future, Charles foolishly becomes involved in a scheme that conceals corruption and danger. But a jet plane crash, and a chance encounter with three unusual old men avert the certain destruction that awaits him - and produce unexpectedly happy consequences from the painful mistakes of the past.THE MAGICIANS is a novel that may be savored from two points of view: as a stange tale, humorous, touching and dramatic; or as a sharply satirical fable of modern life. --- FOOTMAN IN POWDER --- An historical novel about a young kitchen helper in the royal household of King George IV. --- THE RED BADGE OF COURAGE --- Henry Fleming has joined the Union army because of his romantic ideas of military life, but soon finds himself in the middle of a battle against a regiment of Confederate soldiers. Terrified, Henry deserts his comrades. Upon returning to his regiment, he struggles with his shame as he tries to redeem himself and prove his courage. . .See photos for additional content. . .
