Hardcover (1 to 2 lbs)

From the acclaimed author of the bestselling Italian Fever comes a fresh twist on the classic Jekyll and Hyde story, a novel told from the perspective of Mary Reilly, Dr. Jekyll's dutiful and intelligent housemaid. Faithfully weaving in details from Robert Louis Stevenson's classic, Martin introduces an original and captivating character: Mary Reilly is a survivor -- scarred but still strong -- familiar with evil, yet brimming with devotion and love. As a bond grows between Mary and her tortured employer, she is sent on errands to unsavory districts of London and entrusted with secrets she would rather not know. Unable to confront her hideous suspicions about Dr. Jekyll, Mary ultimately proves the lengths to which she'll go to protect him. Through her astute reflections, we hear the rest of the classic Jekyll and Hyde story, and this familiar tale is made more terrifying than we remember it, more complex than we imagined possible.

Charles Fergus

I enjoyed this historically based story about the early days of candid photography and the early days of “assimilation” of native Americans. Lots of examples of early photography included-32 photos . 

A fictionalized version of the Wanamaker Expedition to convince native Americans to pledge allegiance to the US and turn to white mens’ ways.  Official photographers accompanied the expedition, but a young photographer, intent on showing the truth, is secretly taking and publishing candid photos at the same time.

This is an advance uncorrected proof copy of the book published in 1991. 

Condition is nearly new. No creases in spine. Wrinkle in cover is a defect in publishing-see photo.

In an early 1900s expedition to Indian reservations in the West, sent to convince the Indians to surrender their culture and become U.S. citizens, a member of the party is sending unauthorized photographs of the miserable conditions of the reservation to a Washington paper. A powerful portrayal, based on actual events.
