XHTML Black Book: A Complete Guide to Mastering XHTML
Steven Holzner
This book is designed to be the only book you'll need for Web development. It covers every aspect of XHTML in depth, and it covers everything else you'll need, such as JavaScript, Java, even Perl CGI programming. This is the book that allows you to leave the HTML-based books behind as you make the transition to XHTML--like the HTML-based books, this book covers all aspects of Web development, but now it's all based on XHTML. The XHTML Black Book covers all aspects of XHTML 1.0 and 1.1, and everything else you need to create Web pages that can send email, create and use cookies, redirect browsers, change themselves on the fly, react to the time of day, determine what browser the user has, open new browser windows, display dialog boxes, print themselves on the user's printer, support drag and drop, connect to databases on Web servers, animate text in the status bar, react to mouse movements--far more than there's space to list here. We'll create transparent, interlaced, and animated GIFs, multimedia presentations, Java applets, server-side and client-side image maps, CGI scripts that run on the server, XML documents, bind XML documents to databases, and nearly everything else you can do with a browser. You also get a true working knowledge of JavaScript so you can script your pages, Java so you can create applets, and Perl to create CGI scripts (unlike other books that gloss over those topics). This book is designed to be literally the new standard in Web development as XHTML supplants HTML. It lists not only what browsers and what versions of those browsers support every XHTML tag, but also lists that data for every *attribute* of every tag. Everything you need is here--from start to finish, I really believe the coverage here stands head and shoulders above the rest. Write and let me know if you want something added--edition after edition, I want to make sure this book stays at the absolute top of the field, the comprehensive one you'll turn to again and again.

The Culture of the Copy: Striking Likenesses, Unreasonable Facsimiles
Hillel Schwartz
Considering how many tricky ethical and legal questions there are with various electronic reproductions, <b>The Culture of the Copy</b> is a timely book. Our fascination with copies, replicas, and reproduction is explored in this unusual and engaging historical and cultural survey. While it isn't solely about electronic copies, the historical review of the technology of reproduction sets our current debates over copyright and intellectual property in the digital age in perspective. In fact, Schwartz suggests that the ethical dilemmas in many fields have become inseparable from our pursuit of copies.

Transformed by his tantalizing touch... A single look from Salvatore Di Luca. That’s all it took for virgin Lina’s life to change— _forever_. For one night, she escaped from her ordinary, suffocating life...and found freedom in the Sicilian’s arms! It defies every rule Salvatore has set himself, but he just can’t resist enchanting Lina. Still, he _refuses_ to let her into his fiercely guarded world. Until he finds their impulsive encounter cost Lina everything... He may never trust her, but if Lina is staying in his luxurious mansion, it will be in his bed! “Do you realise you have me at a complete disadvantage?” Salvatore observed slowly. “You seem to know exactly who I am, while I have no idea what your name is.” Lina took another sip before replying and the sweet-sharp taste of the lemons was icy against her lips. “It’s Nicolina Vitale,” she said. “But my friends call me Lina.” There was a heartbeat of a pause. “And what would you like me to call you?” His

Wild in the Hollow: On Chasing Desire and Finding the Broken Way Home
Amber C. Haines
<i>I always knew there was more than what my eyes could see. Maybe that's why it's easy for me to imagine Eden. I have my own version, the place where I clearly remember my early childhood experience as beautiful, wild, and protected.<br /></i><br />In prose that is at once lyrical and utterly honest, a brave new voice takes you on a windswept journey down the path of brokenness to healing, satisfaction, and true intimacy with God. Amber Haines calls us to dispense with the pretty bows we use to dress up our stories and instead trust God to take our untidy, unfinished lives and make them free, authentic, and whole.<br /><br />If you struggle with doubt or hold secrets, if you have ever felt marginalized or like you are missing something, you will find in Amber a sister and a voice inviting you back home, to a place of acceptance, fulfillment, and identity--and into the heart of God.|<b>Amber C. Haines </b>is a soulful writer and a blogger at TheRunaMuck.com. She is curator, with her husband, Seth, of <i>Mother Letters</i> and is a contributor with many acclaimed writers and bloggers at DaySpring's (in)courage. She lives in Arkansas, has four wild sons, and finds community among the broken.

Amber #2 -- Guns of Avalon -- Roger Zelazny -- (1972) To Bob and Phyllis Rozman I I stood there on the beach and said, "Good-by, Butterfly," and the ship slowly turned, then headed out toward deep water. It would make it back into port at the lighthouse of Cabra, I knew, for that place lay near to Shadow. Turning away, I regarded the black line of trees near at hand, knowing that a long walk lay ahead of me. I moved in that direction, making the necessary adjustments as I advanced. A pre-dawn chill lay upon the silent forest, and this was good. I was perhaps fifty pounds underweight and still occasionally experienced double vision, but I was improving. I had escaped the dungeons of Amber and recuperated somewhat, with the assistance of mad Dworkin and drunken Jopin, in that order. Now I had to find me a place, a place resembling another place -- one which no longer existed. I located the path. I took it. After a time, I stopped at a

Diario de Oaxaca: A Sketchbook Journal of Two Years in Mexico
Peter Kuper
Starred Review. Kuper has long been among the most politically engaged and stylistically distinctive artists working in comics, and both qualities take center stage here. This dazzling annotated sketchbook recounts two years Kuper and his family spent living in Oaxaca, Mexico. Anticipating a sojourn from American politics, Kuper instead found himself in a city roiled by a teachers' strike that was violently suppressed by the regional government. He recorded his observations in his sketchbook and in illustrated letters home, crisply reproduced in this bilingual (English and Spanish) book. Kuper's facility with diverse art media shines in early pages covering political action, as colorfully penciled protestors stand against rigidly inked military barricades set against the lush backdrops of Oaxaca. As the populist forces are rapidly suppressed, Kuper records a panoply of further visual impressions: beaches, stores, dogs, vendors, ancient ruins, street art and many, many insects. Throughout, Kuper's letters, rooted in personal observation but clearly intended as eyewitness reports for public consumption, provide helpful context. And if his increasingly profuse style mixing suggests a departure from earlier visual in the book, the final observations about a beautiful, merciless natural order obliquely ratify the political convictions that open the book. <i>(Sept.)</i> <br />Copyright Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

Egmont Passage: Monkey Business
Antonino Fabiano
Antonino "Nino" Fabiano is a freelance writer, video photographer, television broadcast teacher, and retired Air Force colonel. An Air Force "brat," Nino was born in France, and lived in numerous places in the United States and Europe before his parents settled in Orlando, Florida. He is a graduate of Oak Ridge High School, and holds a BA in Radio/TV Communications from the University of Central Florida, and a MS in Management Science from Troy University. Following graduation from college, he was commissioned in the Air Force and became a Public Affairs Officer. His assignments took him to numerous places throughout the United States, Europe, Africa, and Asia. Of particular note was his assignment at the Pentagon where he served as a press officer for two Chairmen of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Nino received accolades for his creative writing at an early age when he wrote a satirical essay about his mother's meatballs for a junior high assignment. His writing career has been rolling along ever since. In one way or another, Nino has tackled every possible form of writing, including poetry, corporate communications, crisis communications, feature stories, speeches, news releases, and a trilogy of young-adult adventure novels. His latest novel, Egmont Passage: Monkey Business, was released in July of 2011, and tackles the controversial topic of Thomas Jefferson's "separation of church and state." Schools or groups interested in having Nino as a guest speaker may contact him at tidaltales@aol.com. You can be sure he always has something to say. If you don't hear from him immediately, he's probably on his skiff, the Egmont Passage, fishing for another story-line, or hiking the mountains of northern New Mexico, exploring a new plot or two.

Nancy McMillan Schuepbach was born in Seattle, WA in 1943 but has lived her adult life in Marin County just north of San Francisco. Her grandfather, Edward Harper Thomas was a well-known Northwest writer, editor, and correspondent with numerous books and articles to his credit. Her Aunt Mary was a regular writer for several magazines. Nancy's background is mostly in music. As a composer and piano teacher she continues her studies in classical and jazz piano. Her CD Solo features all original compositions. She also paints. Yearning to write stories, Nancy has found that the writing process is much the same as composing music... note by note, or word by word. Notes or words strung together, reworked, played with, and edited come out pretty much the same. For the reader or the listener they evoke feelings, emotions, and memories. Nancy McMillan Schuepbach is the author of the much talked about novel, Murder at the Mane Tamers, a comedy about six old women who accidentally kill the mayor of their small town then don't know what to do with his body. She has two other about-to-be-published novels, The Many Friends of Mrs. Greenpants and a children's story, Tommy's Secret. Several other novels are in-the-works. See her web site, www.nancyschuepbach.com to see her art, hear her music, and read about her books.

Murder strikes close to home for a new K-9 unit in Brooklyn When a double homicide is strikingly familiar to a twenty-year-old cold case, Detective Nate Slater is rattled by the parallels. With a child as the only witness, he and his K-9 partner must protect little Lucy and her aunt, Willow Emery. Nate’s rough past means he always keeps an emotional distance…but in this case getting closer is the only way they’ll all survive. **True Blue K-9 Unit: Brooklyn** Nate heard Willow scream. He wheeled around the corner, his heart lodged in his throat. Lucy was crying, loud screeching sobs. “Aunt Willow! Aunt Willow! Come back!” Someone dressed in black with a hat pulled low over his forehead was dragging Willow toward a sedan. “Stop! Police!” Nate shouted. Realizing he might be too late, he reached down and released his yellow Lab’s leash. “Get him, Murphy. Get him!” His K-9 partner took off running. The man’s eyes widened and he pushed Willo

The Berlin Enigma: Memories - From Boy to Spy
D F Harrington
As a commercial pilot for twenty-three years in Northwestern Ontario, Darlene Harrington's experiences ranged from being the captain of a King Air to writing newsletters for the local flying club and column for the Kenora Daily Miner &amp; News. It was an exciting career with a different adventure every day, at times flying an injured child from a remote location in Canada's far north to Toronto's SickKids Hospital. Now retired from aviation, Darlene is sharing the many stories she has collected, starting with her debut novel. The Berlin Enigma is a memoir based on her father's extraordinary life and heartfelt memories from both world wars, first as a soldier and then as a British spy. Darlene and her spouse, Rob, divide their time between Drayton Valley, Alberta and Kenora, Ontario, Canada. Darlene also enjoys painting, playing piano, gardening, and spending time with friends and family....

Critical Survey of Mystery and Detective Fiction: Authors (4 Volume Set)
Frank N. Magill
Magill's name has long been associated with critical surveys (e.g., in poetry, drama, and literary theory) and with the Masterplots series. This survey meets the standard of scholarly, in-depth analysis set by its predecessors. In a genre that continues to explode in popularity, this survey is a cornerstone of research and background material. It encompasses 280 authors who are synonymous with the genre, have made significant contributions to it, or have contributed to the genre though they are associated with another. Each entry is divided into several elements: basic personal information; principal series; description of main characters in each series; explanation of author's contribution to the genre; a 2500-word analysis of the principal works and characters; and a bibliography of mystery and of nonmystery works. The last volume contains a glossary of detective/mystery terms, indexes of subgenre and series characters, and an author/title/term index. Authors are listed by their mystery-genre pseudonym (e.g., Gore Vidal is listed as Edgar Box), but the index crossreferences pseudonyms with the author's better-known names. The information here is valuable, concise, and easy to find.<br /><i>- Martin J. Hudacs, Towanda H.S., Pa.</i><br />Copyright 1989 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Medieval Captives 1 Sebastian the Alchemist and His Captive He takes her for hate. Will he keep her for love? Sebastian, lord of the tower in the northern high lands, is a proud, bitter man with a dark past. An alchemist and a warrior, he has had lovers but knows he is ugly—experience and betrayal have taught him that. When Melissa, the beautiful, neglected daughter of two old enemies, falls into his possessive hands he is determined to hold her. Why? As one of the detested and defeated Felix family, Melissa must cling to her courage when she is claimed as a war-prize by the tall, grim Sebastian. Expecting torture and ravishment, she finds instead a peace and sanctuary that she has never known. Treated with kindness for the first time in her life, Melissa begins to blossom. But there are secrets and old betrayals between them. Sebastian’s abiding jealousy is not easily quelled, especially when someone at the tower seeks to destroy his growing love with Melissa…

The Last Days of Publishing: A Novel
Thomas M. Engelhardt
A former editor at Pantheon Books, Englehardt (The End of Victory Culture: Cold War America and the Disillusioning of a Generation) has penned an opinionated, nostalgic novel about the trials of a seasoned book editor in the information age. Rick Koppes, a literary purist, former commune resident and anti-Vietnam War activist, works at highbrow Byzantium Press. His publishing house has been taken over by German magnate Bruno Hindemann's Multimedia Entertainment, where executive David Marsden, many years his junior, hopes to capitalize on Koppes's lone bestselling author with videos and merchandise ("We want to brand him awesomely"). Koppes's ex-wife, a treacherously bottom-line-minded publishing exec, becomes his boss. He meets his old friend, Larry, a fellow longtime editor, for lunch and learns that Larry has been fired for not bringing in enough money. In his agitated state, Larry berates the waiter at their Vietnamese restaurant, while Koppes wonders silently whether the waiter had been tortured by American soldiers during the war. Woven through these apocalyptic snapshots are laments about the ramifications of electronic publishing and the decline of the reading public. The novel will likely try the patience of any reader not wholly fascinated with the publishing industry; though there are some emotionally vivid passages, the book often gets bogged down in descriptions of the minutiae of the business. Engelhardt seems primarily to be addressing his colleagues, but even those inclined to agree with his view may find his hero self-righteous and unsympathetic. <br />Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Secret Soldier: The True Life Story of Israel's Greatest Commando
Moshe Betser
The Israeli Defense Force has dazzled the world with its surgically precise antiterrorist missions, conducted with a minimal loss of human life. Many of these operations have been the work of the elite Sayeret Matkal commando unit. The group's former commander, Betser, now presents his life story, and in the process pulls back some of the shroud that has long concealed the inner workings of Sayeret Matkal. The result is a captivating personal view of high-stakes special warfare. With the help of mystery writer Rosenberg (The Cutting Room), Betser chronicles his own role in well-publicized victories, such as the 1976 rescue of passengers from an Air France flight held hostage in Entebbe, Uganda; and in lesser-known failures as well, including the bold hijack of an Iraqi commercial aircraft mistakenly thought to be carrying the infamous terrorist George Habash. The former commando doesn't skimp on detail, delighting with such tidbits as the revelation that a commando disguised as a female tourist stuffed his bra with hand grenades. He speaks eloquently of the role of commando units, but also deplores violence, capping his riveting combat stories with a paean to peace that's all the more poignant because it's penned by a warrior. <BR>Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Yoraam couldn't put his finger on why, but he was worried. Something bad was going to happen; he was sure of it. The colonel wasn't a man who suffered from bad nerves or was prone to superstition. He was a veteran of the 1967 Six Day War and the famous Entebbe raid, and had organized and led countless commando raids against terrorist strongholds in Lebanon, Jordan and Syria. Yoraam had had a long and much-decorated career in the IDF. He was considered a national hero and he was affectionately known as "the Old Man" among his troops. Indeed, as the commanding officer of a hastily constructed prison compound that held the world's foremost terrorist--who was await

GENTLE PERSUASION “I’m not going to hurt you,” Jack said, sensing her fear. “This isn’t new to you; you’ve been loved before.” “No...I...” What could Moira say? That she’d lied to him from the moment she awakened in his bed? It was long past the time for confessions. The moment for truth had passed as Jack lowered his head and kissed her eyelids, feathering them gently. His mouth moved down to brush her lips, nibbling lightly, delicately, stroking his tongue against the seam before urging them open so he could taste more fully of her sweetness. When her tongue touched his, his body tightened painfully, less willing to accept being patient than his mind.

CHAPTER ONE On the eve of her twentieth birthday, Giselle finally found out why her own family disliked her so much. Not that anyone would speak of such a thing. The idea would cause a sensation if she were to mention it. After all, Giselle was surrounded by every luxury known to mankind and used to being protected and pampered like a princess. It wasn’t surprising. She was the only daughter of the Comte d’Antillion. Such distinction should have given her access to every soiree and fest. She should be the center of attention, surrounded by envious friends and acquaintances, her social calendar filled to the last hour. But instead…she was ignored. Overlooked. Forgotten. Her mind screamed at the injustice of it while her hands stayed piously crossed in prayer. She hadn’t any envious friends. She hadn’t any acquaintances she could name; at least, not any in the

Mommy is the Boss! A Following Directions Story
Deborah Alexandra
I wrote this book after listening to a mother describe difficulties with power struggles. I knew that her son learned well through stories. And, I have often told clients that parents are "the boss." This story was exactly what I needed to help my client understand that he needed to follow directions. I also had my own children read it because I often remind them that their father and I are the boss.

Bernard Cornwell - 1814 03 Sharpe's Revenge Sharpe's Revenge: Richard Sharpe and the peace of 1814 PART ONE PROLOGUE Major Richard Sharpe had made every preparation for his own death. His horse, Sycorax, and his fine French telescope would go to Captain William Frederickson, his weapons would become the property of Sergeant Patrick Harper, while everything else would belong to his wife Jane. Everything, that was, except for the uniform in which Sharpe always fought. That uniform consisted of knee-high riding boots, French cavalry overalls, and a faded green jacket of the 95th Rifles. Sharpe had asked to be buried in that uniform. "If you weren't buried in those rags," Frederickson observed disdainfully, "they'd be burned anyway." It was true that the leather boots had been deeply scarred by knives, bayonets and sabres, and that the overalls were so patched with brown homespun that they looked more like a ploughman's cast-off breeches than the plundered uni

I'M THE VAMPIRE LESTAT. REMEMBER ME? THE vampire who became a super rock star, the one who wrote the autobiography? The one with the blond hair and the gray eyes, and the insatiable desire for visibility and fame? You remember. I wanted to be a symbol of evil in a shining century that didn't have any place for the literal evil that I am. I even figured I'd do some good in that fashion-playing the devil on the painted stage. And I was off to a good start when we talked last. I'd just made my debut in San Francisco-first "live concert" for me and my mortal band. Our album was a huge success. My autobiography was doing respectably with both the dead and the undead. Then something utterly unforeseen took place. Well, at least I hadn't seen it coming. And when I left you, I was hanging from the proverbial cliff, you might say. Well, it's all over now-what followed. I've survived, obviously. I wouldn't be talking to you if I hadn't. And the cosmic dust has finally settled; and the small r

How We Met: Chance Encounters and Other True Love Stories of Real-Life Couples
Miriam Sokol
The road not taken. The one that got away. Serendipitous meetings. These are the stories that populate <i>How We Met</i>, an anthology of "chance encounters and other true love stories of real-life couples." They are stories of enduring affection that transcends time and distance until the couples eventually find their way to one another through happenstance or dogged perseverance. That fork in the road eventually circles back to the right path. The one that got away is found again. Romance blooms at stoplights. Sometimes it takes a week or a month, sometimes years--even decades--for the lovers to find each other and acknowledge their bond. In the end, they all live happily ever after--or at least that's what we hope: nearly all the stories conclude with marriage.

INTRODUCTION My native state, Kerala, known as ‘God’s Own Country’ is a unique land full of greenery and natural beauty. Kerala is also famous for its wide variety of traditional cuisine. Kerala cuisine includes a multitude of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes. The state comprises of 14 districts and each part of the state has its own delicacies to treat the taste buds. Kerala is also known as “Keravrikshangalude naadu” (land of coconut trees) and ‘Land of Spices’. Hence almost every dish has coconut and spices added for flavour. Even though I started cooking at an early age, OPOS changed all my traditional cooking methods and myths. I tried many dishes using the OPOS technique and the result was amazing. This inspired me to write an OPOS cookbook. This cookbook contains some of the popular and traditional dishes (Veg & Non-veg) of Kerala which includes welcome drinks, starters, side dishes, main courses and desserts.

The Dark Stretch: A Young Wife's Miraculous Ride from Darkness to Light
Randi E. Stump
Randi Stump was born and raised into the beautiful Adirondack Mountains in upstate New York. She was always most comfortable on the back of a horse and soon realized a career with these animals was her calling. She received a degree in Equine Science and Management from SUNY Morrisville and soon married the love of her life, Graham. While serving as Horsemanship Director at the Word of Life Ranch she taught children, teens and young adults the art of horsemanship. Life took a dramatic turn when on July 3oth, 2010, Graham was involved in a rodeo accident with his horse resulting in a traumatic brain injury. As Graham lay in a coma, Randi took to social media to help deal with the continual devastating news of her husbands prognosis. After several months of extensive therapy and a final release to continue on at home, Graham and Randi remain steadfast in their faith and trust in their Lord Jesus Christ. Living with the continual side-effects of a brain injury: the struggle, the humor, the day in and day out grind of dealing with it all is why Randi continues to write and blog. Her faith through the storms of this life have proven to not only herself, but all those who follow her: this relationship we have with Jesus is more real than ever! Graham and Randi reside together in Schroon Lake, New York with their three children, Wyatt, Keith and Fallon. They lead a simple and quiet life in the woods where they enjoy their horses, dogs and all the mountains have to offer.

In the erratic sweep of her headlights, the landscape remained an amorphous blur of dips and ridges; the only thing she could see clearly were the white lines on the narrow ribbon of road unspooling ahead of her. Driving fast on open roads was the only way she knew to combat the tension that had gripped her. Not that tension was really the word. More like fear. Sh

Art of Pug Coloring Book Collection: A Coloring Book for Dog Lovers
Ed Delacruz
This special collection of pug illustrations has been inspired by my love for all dogs, my own four little furbabies and my experience with this cute and loving breed. <br /><br />I have been a pet portrait painter and illustrator for many years and these books allow me to combine two great loves of mine. Dogs and Art.<br />I truly wish that someday I will become the person my dog thinks that I am. Dogs teach us to love with a tenderness that we did not know we were capable of.

Burnt Worlds (HMCS Borealis) (Volume 1)
S. J. Madill
S.J. Madill hails from the magical land of Canada, and while there may not be any spaceships or unicorns (that you know of), there exists an uncanny natural ability to fix just about anything by using hockey equipment and duct tape. A lifelong reader, and a lover of all things research-intensive, he was often left feeling a sense of "what if?" when he finished reading a book. So he decided to answer those questions by writing some books of his own. You may not find any unicorns between the pages (unless they got squashed in the bindery), but you will find compassionate necromancers, reluctant warriors, and an alien who defies pronouns. When not writing, he can be found on his blog (sjmadill.com) pondering universal truths and how embarrassed we're all going to be when aliens see the Internet.

Taking the Heat (Silhouette Super Romance Series Extra)
Brenda Novak
Novak's latest is an energetic if unlikely tale set in the Arizona desert. Divorced mother Gabrielle Hadley has moved to the small town of Florence to be near her birth mother, whom she hopes to approach for the first time. Unfortunately, taking a guard's job in one of the town's many prisons is her only option for employment. When she witnesses convicted murderer Randall Tucker being savagely beaten without any protection from the other guards, she's torn. Should she speak out against her colleagues' corruption, or stay silent despite Tucker's injuries? Her dilemma intensifies when her police car crashes as she and another officer are attempting to transfer Tucker to another prison. Gabrielle follows the fleeing Tucker into the desert, and amid their fight for survival, she comes to believe in his innocence and acknowledge their mutual attraction. When they finally return to civilization, she agrees to harbor both Tucker and the son he has kidnapped from foster care while he fights to gain his freedom. Novak's story is richly dramatic, with a stark setting that distinguishes it nicely from the lusher worlds of other romances. Sadly, its appeal is badly weakened by inconsistent character motivation and an abrupt, all-too-convenient resolution. <BR>Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information, Inc.

THE GLASS FLOWER George R.R. Martin A DF Books NERDs Release Once, when I was just a girl in the first flush of my true youth, a young boy gave me a glass flower as a token of his love. He was a rare and precious boy, though I confess that I have long forgotten his name. So too was the flower he gave me. On the steel and plastic worlds where I have spent my lives, the ancient glassblower's art is lost and forgotten, but the unknown artisan who had fashioned my flower remembered it well. My flower has a long and delicate stem, curved and graceful, all of fine thin glass, and from that frail support the bloom explodes, as large as my fist, impossibly exact. Every detail is there, caught, frozen in crystal for eternity; petals large and small crowding each other, bursting from the center of the blossom in a slow transparent riot, surrounded by a crown of six wide drooping leaves, each with its tracery of veins intact, each unique. It was as if an alchemist had been wandering through a

Here, O ye hallow'd Nine! for in your train I follow, here the deadened strain revive; Nor let Calliope refuse to sound A somewhat higher song, of that loud tone, Which when the wretched birds of chattering note Had heard, they of forgiveness lost all hope. Sweet hue of eastern sapphire, that was spread O'er the serene aspect of the pure air, High up as the first circle, to mine eyes Unwonted joy renew'd, soon as I 'scap'd Forth from the atmosphere of deadly gloom, That had mine eyes and bosom fill'd with grief. The radiant planet, that to love invites, Made all the orient laugh, and veil'd be

MRS WARREN'S PROFESSION 1 MRS WARREN'S PROFESSION George Bernard Shaw 1894 MRS WARREN'S PROFESSION 2 THE AUTHOR'S APOLOGY Mrs Warren's Profession has been performed at last, after a delay of only eight years; and I have once more shared with Ibsen the triumphant amusement of startling all but the strongest-headed of the London theatre critics clean out of the practice of their profession. No author who has ever known the exultation of sending the Press into an hysterical tumult of protest, of moral panic, of involuntary and frantic confession of sin, of a horror of conscience in which the power of distinguishing between the work of art on the stage and the real life of the spectator is confused and overwhelmed, will ever care for the stereotyped compliments which every successful farce or melodrama elicits from the newspapers. Give me that critic who rushed from my play to declare furiously that Sir George Crofts ought to be kicked. What a triumph for the actor, thus to reduce a ja

# Afterword How much of Annemarie's story is true? I know I will be asked that. Let me try to tell you, here, where fact ends and fiction begins. Annemarie Johansen is a child of my imagination, though she grew there from the stories told to me by my friend Annelise Platt, to whom this book is dedicated, who was herself a child in Copenhagen during the long years of the German occupation. I had always been fascinated and moved by Annelise's descriptions not only of the personal deprivation that her family and their neighbors suffered during those years, and the sacrifices they made, but even more by the greater picture she drew for me of the courage and integrity of the Danish people under the leadership of the king they loved so much, Christian X. So I created little Annemarie and her family, set them down in a Copenhagen apartment on a street where I have walked myself, and imagined their life there against the real events of 1943. Denmark surrendered to Germany in 1940, i
