None. Condizione: Very Good. Quarto (ca. 27,5x21 cm). 2 pp. Brown ink on watermarked laid paper, West's printed letterhead on top. Ink stamp of "James O. Aplan Library Collection" on verso. Fold marks, but overall a very good letter. Rare original Wild West letter, giving an insight into the 1878 trial of notorious Deadwood gambler and stagecoach robber Samuel S. Hartman, or "Laughing Sam." The letter was written by Laughing Sam's attorney Isaac E. West and addressed to "My dear Sheriff" - most likely, to the sheriff of Pennington County Frank P. Moulton (1845-1922), who based in Rapid City where Laughing Sam was being detained. Laughing Sam, "a hard case <…> widely known in the [Black Hills]" (Three Omaha Men, while on their Way Home from Deadwood, Corraled and Robbed by Three Road Agents// St. Louis Globe-Democrat, 27 September 1877, p. 2), was a gambler and highway robber, active in and around Deadwood in the late 1870s and once was confronted by the famous Calamity Jane. He was known as a criminal who "moves around town by daylight searching for his victim, and when night comes invariably has two or three captured" (St. Louis Post-Dispatch (St. Louis, Missouri), 13 August 1877, p. 2). In early 1878 Laughing Sam was arrested for robbery and had a trial in Rapid City. During the trial, he told the jury about "his life's wanderings [which] carried him all over the western States and Territories, from Illinois, Mercer county, the place of his birth, to Mexico, Colorado, Salt Lake and the Buffalo country. He has been engaged in all kinds of business from driving government mules to hunting buffaloes, and from his statement, it has been a hard, laborious one, and from the sweat of his brow has he earned his bread" (All about Laughing Sam// The Black Hills Daily Times (Deadwood, South Dakota), 8 October 1878, p. 1). Nevertheless, Laughing Sam was found guilty and sentenced to nine years and eight months, which he spent in the Detroit house of correction. Isaac E. West was born in Shiloh, N.J. and started his law career in Newbern, N.C. in 1867, where "he acquired the title of judge which he now wears, being elected judge of probate and clerk of the superior court. <…> He resigned in 1877 to come to Dakota and located at Yankton in the practice of law. He served as private secretary to Gov. Pennington and afterwards to Gov. Howard. In 1878 he was appointed deputy collector of internal revenue for North Dakota, having removed to Fargo. When the legislature created the board of railroad commissioners Gov. Ordway appointed Judge West a member and the present board has chosen him secretary. The judge is a member of the staff of Gen. Dennis, commander of the Dakota militia, and one of the most active officers of the G.A.R. <…> The judge is a staunch Republican but thinks better of Cleveland than he ever expected to of any Democrat in that position. He also favors the division of Dakota upon the 46th parallel, and the admission of two states" (The Saint Paul Globe (Saint Paul, Minnesota), 3 April 1886, p. 11). The letter also mentions the just appointed 6th Governor of the Dakota Territory William A. Howard (in office: 1878-1880), Alonzo Joseph Flanner (1851-1913) - a resident of the Crook City and the first State's Attorney of Dakota's Lawrence County, and Captain A.W. Lavender (1842- after 1905), a grocery shop owner and a long-time resident of Yankton. The verso of the letter bears an ink stamp of the library of a noted South Dakota art and antique dealer and historian James O. Aplan (1931-2018). The text of the letter: " My Dear Sheriff, I received a letter from Laughing Sam Saturday asking if I had seen or heard from you, that he was anxious to see you &c. What in your opinion ought I to do in his matter? I wish to act fairly and honorably by him, but I am really unable financially to go to Rapid City and incur the expense of hotel bills &c. during what may be a tedious trial, with little prospect of remuneration. Yet I told him I would do so.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Princess Aubrielle Berman knows that when a goddess calls, nobility must answer. If she cannot renew the pact between land, commoner, and noble at The Great Lady's Beltane rite, then the death of a village, cursed when blood was spilled on the common, will be the least of her problems. Without Ariel's help, the princess has no hope of saving the village.Even a month ago, Princess Aubrielle would not have dreamed of turning to an immortal (or player as they call themselves) like Ariel to help her answer the Great Lady's call. But after Ariel helped the princess overcome her arrogance and relate to the commoners enough to take the nobl part in the goddess's rite, Princess Aubrielle would not dream of turning to anyone else.Ariel may be a character in the world's most realistic virtual reality, but even for her and her player David, the events in the princess's world have consequences they cannot escape. Besides, David and Ariel have their own challenge to face. Ariel's success as the first immortal player to be initiated into her guild means that David can spend almost all his time playing Ariel. Increasingly, he feels like he is living a lie: no one knows that Ariel is played by a man. No one appreciates the work he's done. But could David face a world in which everyone knew that he was behind Ariel? This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. When a group of industrial AI controllers said they were bored and wanted to use excess capacity to create an online game, they were met with ridicule. Then the beta came out, and the joke was on the rest of the industry. The world was the ultimate in virtual reality. There were no limits to what players could do. The AI touch mattered. The NPCs were just that much more realistic.The tavern wench Hulda had captivated David's interest like no other NPC: she was vibrant and full of life. Before he could lose his courage, his new character Ariel was born. She was a foxy, curvaceous goddess, and like Hulda, she would take all life had to offer. Through her, David was free to live fantasies he could never find courage to face as himself. David had already succeeded against the monsters and dungeons. That had freed him from his world. Ariel was going to be even better: she was going to free him from himself. That first night, playing Ariel was everything David hoped it would be. But as Ariel learned more about Hulda's world, she realized things were not as they seemed between the NPCs and players. In Hulda's world, the true enemies were not the monsters Ariel could see, but rather the fears in her own mind. To survive in this world, Ariel needed to face those fears and find her place in a world where even her notions of right and wrong are turned upside down.Warning: the Immortality Curse Universe is for mature readers 18 years of age or older. Characters face adult situations with no easy answers. This is a story of the deepest desires and the struggle to find the compassion and vulnerability to embrace them.
