As its title implies, the present work aims to present in the simplest form the elements of the Italian language. In preparing it, the author has made to attempt at completeness; on the contrary, his efforts have tended to omit whatever seemed non-essential and apt to cause confusion in the beginner's mind. The needs of high school and college classes have guided him throughout his tast and, believing that extensive drill should be emphasized in the study of any modern language, he has consistently followed the system of giving few rules and many exercises in each lesson.
For generations, the name "Ellery Queen" has been synonymous with the finest in mystery fiction. When cousins Frederic Dannay (1905-1982) and Manfred Lee (1905-1971) created the iconic character and byline in 1929, they had no idea how influential he (and they) would become. Books, movies, television programs, and radio shows have firmly rooted their characters in the public consciousness. To this day, their work remains among the best examples of "fair play" mystery fiction. Their fans -- including such luminaries as Stephen King, Agatha Christie, and Anthony Boucher -- are legion. This volume assembles 16 stories by a wide variety of authors, all written (sometimes tongue-in-cheek) as homages to, and parodies and pastiches of, the character -- and writing team -- known as "Ellery Queen." Included are: INTRODUCTION: Elementary Questions, by Josh Pachter and Dale C. Andrews INTRODUCTION: Sorely Missed Adventures, by Richard Dannay INTRODUCTION: The Sincerest Form of Flattery, by Rand Lee THE MYSTERY OF THE RED BALLOONS, by Thomas Narcejac DYING MESSAGE, by Leyne Requel THE GILBERT AND SULLIVAN CLUE, by Jon L. Breen OPEN LETTER TO SURVIVORS, by Francis M. Nevins THE REINDEER CLUE, by Edward D. Hoch THE BOOK CASE, by Dale C. Andrews and Kurt Sercu TEN MONTHS' BLUNDER, by J.N. Williamson THE ENGLISH VILLAGE MYSTERY, by Arthur Porges ELROY QUINN'S LAST CASE, by Dennis M. Dubin THE NORWEGIAN APPLE MYSTERY, by James Holding THE MAN WHO READ ELLERY QUEEN, by William Brittain E.Q. GRIFFEN EARNS HIS NAME, by Josh Pachter THE LAST CHECK, by Patricia McGerr THE DEATH OF THE MALLORY QUEEN, by Lawrence Block THE RANSOM OF EQMM #1, by Arthur Vidro THE TEN-CENT MURDER, by Joseph Goodrich

Chip, on the other hand, is small and slender, making up for his lack of size by his agility and speed. Together they make an unusual pair. Both are Christians, and because of their faith in Christ, they find opportunities to witness for their Lord under unusual circumstances.
Two attractive women…one personable man…a gun…a shot…and then black headlines asking red blood for…THE VENUS DEATH by BEN BENSONBen Benson's superb descriptions of the state police at work and at play have given all of his mystery novels a unique and buoyant quality of authenticity. The Venus Death is no exception -- but here Mr. Benson departs from previous practice to create a vigorous new hero, young state trooper Ralph Lindsey.This is Lindsey's story from start to finish. It begins when a glamorous blonde singles him out for personal attention.

The Venus Death is Ben Benson at top form, which means a strikingly different story for solid reading entertainment.
