Tolkien and the Great War（ISBN=9780618574810）
"Very much the best book about J.R.R. Tolkien that has yet beenwritten." -- A.N. Wilson "A highly intelligent book ... Garth displays impressive skillsboth as researcher and writer." -- Max Hastings "It is a strange story that Garth tells, but he tells it clearlyand compellingly." -- Tom Shippey "Somewhere, I think, Tolkien is nodding in appreciation." --Charles Matthews, San Jose Mercury News "Gripping from start to finish and offers important new insights."- Library Journal "A labor of love in which journalist Garth combines a newsman'snose for a good story with a scholar's scrupulous attention todetail... Brilliantly argued." -- Daily Mail "Insight into how a writer turned academia into art, how deeplyfriendship supports and wounds us, and how the death anddisillusionment that characterized World War I inspired Tolkien'slush saga." - Detroit Free Press “To be caught in youth by 1914 was no less hideous an experiencethan in 1939 . . . by 1918 all but one of my close friends weredead.” So J.R.R.

Road to Wigan Pier通往威冈码头之路（奥威尔成名之作）（ISBN=9780156767507） 英文原版
Although George Orwell grew up in the relative comfort of theEnglish middle class, his socialist convictions and general senseof fairness led him to hate his country's deeply ingrained classstructure. That perspective permeates this book, but the moststriking elements are the quotidian details of life that Orwellobserves in his first-person account of the lives of coal minersand others in the poor north of England. Wigan Pier isalmost too realistic at times, as Orwell brings his unparalleledpowers of observation to portray the wretched conditions of theworking class. That Orwell may have slanted his reporting to makethings look worse than they were is a question that does not lessenthe book's interest.

Homage to Catalonia（ISBN=9780156421171）
"I wonder what is the appropriate first action when you comefrom a country at war and set foot on peaceful soil. Mine was torush to the tobacco-kiosk and buy as many cigars and cigarettes asI could stuff into my pockets." Most war correspondents observewars and then tell stories about the battles, the soldiers and thecivilians. George Orwell--novelist, journalist, sometimesocialist--actually traded his press pass for a uniform and foughtagainst Franco's Fascists in the Spanish Civil War during 1936 and1937. He put his politics and his formidable conscience to thetoughest tests during those days in the trenches in the Catalansection of Spain. Then, after nearly getting killed, he went backto England and wrote a gripping account of his experiences, as wellas a complex analysis of the political machinations that led to thedefeat of the socialist Republicans and the victory of theFascists.

"Fast-paced popular history. Detzer has written an engaging andcomprehensive account of the early days of the Civil War."( Publishers Weekly )This fast-paced popular history of thefrantic days between the attack on Fort Sumter and the Battle ofBull Run completes Detzer's "trilogy on the first hundred days ofthe Civil War." The earlier titles— Allegiance and Donnybrook —were critical and commercial successes, and thelatest volume should also score with critics and readers. Detzer,professor emeritus of history at Connecticut State University,combines yeoman research—in official histories of the war,contemporary newspapers, journals, diaries and personalcorrespondence—and gritty prose. In the early days of the conflict,the nation's capital, geographically wedged between two states(Virginia and Maryland) considering secession, was ground zero forthe aspirations and fears of a divided nation. If Washington hadfallen to the Confederates in those turbulent days of "incrediblenoise"—hence the title—Det
