About the book: (from the book, dust jacket) A young, rusty-red dog, half dachsund and half mutt, with the sharp ears ad nose of a fox, was running up and down the sidewalk, looking anxiously in all directions. On this chilly winter evening, Kashtanka becomes separated from her master as darkness and snow begin to fall. She curls up in a doorway, lost and lonely, until a mysterious stranger opens his door and dis- covers the little dog. Then life takes an unpredicted turn and Kashtanka becomes part of a new home, where she joins a babbling goose named Ivan and a sullen cat named Fyodor in rehearsals for performance in a small circus troupe. Anton Chekhov's Kashtanka ("Little Chestnut") is a story well known to Russian children. In it he sees, through the eyes of the little dog, the human world in all its bewildering complexity. A story about life and its ironies, this is also a story of friendship and camaraderie, loyalty and trust. No other illustrator could bring Chekhov's story to life with such warmth and vitality as Barry Moser. His striking portraits of each character and his breathtaking snow scenes are startlingly beautiful. Readers who have never before read Chekhov, as well as those who have long admired his work, ill be enchanted. About the author: (from the book, dust jacket) ANTON CHEKHOV was born in the Russian seaport village of Taganrog in 1860. Often referred to as the father of the modern short story, Chekhov began writing and selling his stories at an early age to help support his medical studies. Between 1899 and 1901 alone, ten volumes of his collected stories and plays were published. Chekhov wrote until his death in 1904. About the illustrator: (from the book, dust jacket) BARRY MOSER has illustrated more than 120 books for adults and children, with exquisite black-and-white wood engravings as well as luminous watercolors. His books have earned such honors as the American Book Award and the AIGA Design Award, and have been named a New York Times Best Illustrated Book and an ALA Best Book for Young Adults. An avid mountain biker and a writer, Mr. Moser lives and works in western Massachusetts. About the translator: (from the book, dust jacket) RICHARD PEVEAR, a poet and translator, has received grants and fellowships from distinguished sources, including the National Endowment for the Arts, the Guggenheim Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Humanities. With his wife, Larissa Volokhonsky, he has translated works by prominent Russian authors, including Dostoevsky. They live in Paris. Moser, Barry (ilustrador).…

This volume presents material surviving from the period between Feb 27th and April 9th 1945, the period of the collapse of the Third Reich. Hugh Trevor-Roper (1914-2003), then an intelligence officer in Berlin, was ordered to investigate the circumstances of Adolf Hitler's death and to rebut the propaganda of the Soviet government that Hitler was alive and living somewhere in the West. Using the alias of Major Oughton, he interviewed politicians, military men, and supporting staff, which were present in the Führerbunker with Hitler, and who had been able to escape to the West, including Bernd Freytag von Loringhoven. The ensuing investigation resulted in this book, in which he described the last ten days of Hitler's life, and the fates of some of the higher ranking members of the inner circle as well of those lesser figures whose evidence was important for reconstructing this penultimate chapter of the war. Trevor-Roper transformed the evidence he gathered during his fact finding mission, evidence that was often lurid, confused, and plain wrong, into a literary work, with sardonic humour and drama, that brings out incidentally how much he was influenced by the rhetorical prose styles of two of his favourite historians, Edward Gibbon and Thomas Babington Macaulay. In response to 'The Last Days of Hitler' Trevor-Roper received a death threat from the Stern Gang for his supposed over emphasis on Hitler's charisma, which the authors of the death threat felt had exonerated the German people. His reputation was seriously damaged in 1983 when after a brief examination he authenticated the Hitler Diaries, which were subsequently shown to be forgeries. A scarce book.…
