Robert Keppel explores in unflinching detail the monstrous patterns, sadistic compulsions, and depraved motives of serial killers. From the Lonely Hearts Killer who hunted the most desperate of women in 1950s America to such infamous symbols of evil as Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, and John Gacy, these are the cases--horrifying, graphic and unforgettable--that Keppel ingeniously taps to shed light on the darkest corners of the pathological mind. Foreword by Ann Rule.

In the sixteenth century, Spain claimed the fabled New World, and a rash of explorers sailed there seeking riches and, most famously, a fountain of youth. Although France made inroads into Florida, ultimately the French, like the Spanish, failed to establish dominion over North America. Francis Parkman tells why. The first part of Pioneers of France in the New World deals with the attempts of the Spanish and the French Huguenots to occupy Florida; the second, with the expeditions of Jacques Cartier and Samuel de Champlain and French colonial endeavors in Canada and Acadia.

Of Jane Austen's life there is little to tell, and that little has been told more than once by writers whose relationship to her made them competent to do so. It is impossible to make even microscopic additions to the sum-total of the facts already known of that simple biography, and if by chance a few more original letters were discovered they could hardly alter the case, for in truth of her it may be said, "Story there is none to tell, sir." To the very pertinent question which naturally follows, reply may thus be given. Jane Austen stands absolutely alone, unapproached, in a quality in which women are usually supposed to be deficient, a humorous and brilliant insight into the foibles of human nature, and a strong sense of the ludicrous.
