What is it about mermaids? Starting with the Assyrian mermaid-goddess Atargatis, aquatic people have appeared in the folklore of cultures around the world. Mermaids, along with their water-loving relations Sirens, Nymphs, Sprites, and Nixies, continue to capture our imagination. Now Hawaiian Heritage Press introduces a mermaid coloring book that meets the high standards of the Historic Images series. The mermaid images for this book were selected from libraries and archives worldwide, then digitally "sweetened" to enhance the coloring experience and restore the pictures to their former glory. Thirty-two high-quality black and white pictures are printed on a single side of each 8.5 x 11 inch / 21.5 x 28 cm page, with room on the opposite side for name, date, and notes. Please note: Mermaids have not always adhered to contemporary standards of modesty. Ariel may sport a discreet shell bra, but many of the historic illustrations in this coloring book contain upper-body nudity.

Aubrey Beardsley (1872-1898) died too young to be an Edwardian (the Edwardian age lasted from 1901 to 1910). But although tuberculosis claimed Beardsley at the age of 25, during his short life he created a body of work that epitomized the fluid elegance that the modern viewer recognizes in Downton Abbey and Merchant-Ivory films. His black and white illustrations capture the gorgeousness and the absurdity of fashion, both Victorian and historical. The 32 high-quality illustrations in this coloring book have been digitally cleaned and de-yellowed, and printed on one side of each 8.5" x 11" (21.59 x 27.94 cm) page for a pleasurable coloring experience. Note: Some of the drawings in this volume are from FIFTY DRAWINGS BY AUBREY BEARDSLEY. Selected from the collection owned by Mr. H. S. Nichols. Published for subscribers only. New York: H. S. Nichols, 1920. The illustrations in this volume are believed to be forgeries. Can you spot the genuine Beardsley drawings?

Once upon a time there were four little Rabbits, and their names were- Flopsy, Mopsy, Cotton-tail, and Peter. They lived with their Mother in a sand-bank, underneath the root of a very big fir-tree.

William T. Horton was one of a circle of artists and writers that included Richard Burton, Aubrey Beardsley, Aleister Crowley, Ernest Dowson, Oscar Wilde, W. B. Yeats, and Max Beerbohm.

An Imagined Shore is the second volume of the illustrations of Robert Anning Bell. Bell was an English architect and art professor, who taught at the Royal College of Art, exhibited his work at the Royal Academy, and worked on mosaics for the Palace of Westminster.

The illustrations are executed in classic Art Nouveau style, the graceful figures done in flowing, liquid lines. The high-quality illustrations in this coloring book have been digitally cleaned and de-yellowed, and printed on one side of each 8.5" x 11" (21.59 x 27.94 cm) page for a pleasurable coloring experience.

This collection contains four licensed novellas in the Miss Fortune universe.Sinful Science: "Anubis, the ancient Egyptian god of the underworld, was a man with a wolf's head. The Navajo skin walkers could turn into any animal they pleased. And of course there's the Hồ tinh, Hanoi's nine-tailed fox. I was thinking I might write a story about the Hồ tinh.""Gertie, that's a great idea," Ally said. "Are you going to write children's books?""Oh, my goodness, no. There's no money in children's books. I'm thinking erotica."Once Upon a Murder: "It's been crazy," the desk clerk said. "We just had another big group stay here right before you guys, and they completely trashed the place. Shot out the security cameras with BB guns, pitched a couch off a seventeenth-floor balcony, and one room tried to flush a pillow down the toilet." "What kind of group was that?" I asked. "Doll collectors' convention."Tabasco Fiasco: I found cooking to be something of a mystery. Fortunately, I had a strong stomach and what a fellow agent once enviously described as "taste buds of steel."Schooled: "What's Celia complaining about this time? Did I wash my car on a Tuesday? Wear off-white before Labor Day?"Sheriff Lee fidgeted and cleared his throat. "Celia Arceneaux is dead, Fortune."

"Our guest of honor, Jimmy Tanaka, may have been "The Most Hated Man in Hawaii," but the College of Commerce was in no position to be picky. Not after the latest round of budget cuts. After a brutal year on the academic job market, Professor Molly Barda has finally landed a job at Mahina State University in Mahina, Hawaii ("Where Your Future Begins Tomorrow"). All she wants to do is keep her head down and stay out of trouble until she gets tenure. But then the wealthy and widely-hated Jimmy Tanaka, founder of Merrie Musubis lunch shop, pledges a huge donation to Molly's college and promptly disappears. Molly's bottom-line-obsessed dean, knowing that Molly is in no position to refuse, orders her to track down the missing mogul. As Molly uncovers Mahina's secrets, she starts to fall for Tanaka's competitor...who may have a skeleton or two in his own closet."--

All Professor Molly wanted to do was teach literature. Instead she's been named department chair. She's buried in Student Retention paperwork. She has to mentor the department's new star, the prickly Fiona Spencer. The college has just relocated to a former asylum, and the air conditioning is broken. At least nothing else can go wrong.Until Fiona finds a body in her office.Smart, witty, and entertaining throughout, The Fever Cabinet is a wry and irreverent look at the underbelly of academia, with a dead body thrown in for extra fun. Through Bow's colorful writing and authentic characters, we are treated to a look at the "real" Hawai'i-one tourists rarely get to experience-as well as the petty squabbles and power-struggles that erupt when academic egos collide. A terrific read!- Leslie Karst, author of the Sally Solari Mysteries
