Baltimore County Public Library - Between the Covers. Dear Readers, May 4, 2017 At the start of her entries, dating back to 1865, we find out that 19-year-old Placidia has recently been arrested and is corresponding with her cousin behind bars. It is obvious that she is not willing to reveal the circumstances behind her predicament—at least not easily—which adds to the mystery. What is established, prior to Placidia being in jail, is at the young age of 17, she finds a respectable union with Gryffth Hockaday, a high-ranking confederate soldier.

Adhering to the social customs of the time, this union was one where marriage came first, above love. However, before any romance blossomed, the major received his own letter calling him to the frontlines of battle. I hope this blog finds you well. Yours Truly, Elna.

Stump the Bookseller | New format, same book stumper solving. There was a book I had as a child which was a collection of stories from all over the world.

It was a very thick hard cover book, the illustrations were numerous and rather realistic looking and in many cases quite scary looking. My mother went to America in 1988 and she bought it for me, I was 8 so my memory is rather hazy. Possibly it had been recently published. The hard cover had illustrations from the different stories all over it and down one side was a young African man hanging upside down with his hands trapped in a shell. This was a collection of short stories from America, Africa, Germany, India, Norway and Europe among others. The stories were divided by continent in the Contents. Then there were some which I loved but I don’t recall the titles. May have been set in North America: Three sisters who set off in the dead of winter to find the Sun or maybe its the North Pole or the Wind.

If you could help me identify and locate the book I would be eternally grateful. Stop, You Are Killing Me! - Author Read-Alikes.
