Hardback. Condizione: Good. From his start at Reuters News Agency in London to his position as longtime coanchor of the highly acclaimed MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour, Robert MacNeil was witness to many of the events that shaped the last century-the construction of the Berlin Wall, Kennedy's election and assassination, the Cuban Missile Crisis, Watergate. In this insightful memoir he chronicles his life's path, from a Canadian upbringing to his career as a world-class journalist.With charm and warmth, but also with a piercing eye on the century, MacNeil looks at the meaning of patriotism, nationalism, and home, and explains why he made the decision finally to become an American citizen. An unassuming, nicely qualified valentine to his adopted country, a book that feels Canadian in tone and like a New Yorker's in spirit. Which makes perhaps the best argument for one of MacNeil's points-that there are, after all, many ways to be American.--Newsday Robert MacNeil is the author of two volumes of nonfiction and three novels, including, most recently, Breaking News, and the coauthor of The Story of English. MacNeil grew up in Nova Scotia, the setting for his bestselling memoir Wordstruck. He now divides his time between Halifax and New York City.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The ancient battle between good and evil is nearing its end. Evil is winning. Since ancient times, our planet has been visited by super-intelligent aliens who shift between parallel worlds as easily as we move from sunlight to shadow. Described in our myths as angels, gods, and demons, these trans-dimensional beings often walk among us unnoticed, but they're locked in a battle older than time, with our future hanging in the balance. The Archons' goal is to destroy the human race and seize our world for their own. Standing against them are the Irin, a benevolent race of winged aliens with great power but limited numbers. As our planet sinks rapidly toward apocalyptic doom, our only hope lies in the Synaxis, a group of ordinary men and women conscripted by the Irin and given supernormal powers. But it's a race against time. And as the Synaxis members trek across the Scottish highlands to open the ancient dimensional portal on Iona, they must overcome heavily-armed psychopaths, flying bat-winged demons, and the awakening of a long-dormant volcano. Most of all, they must learn how to use their fantastic new powers to drive back the Archons and rescue the world from destruction.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Is the growing influence of Spanish threatening to displace English in the United States? Are America's grammatical standards in serious decline? Has the media saturation of our culture homogenized our speech? These and other questions catapulted Robert MacNeil and William Cran, coauthors of the language classic The Story of English, on a journey that took them around the country in search of answers. Do You Speak American?, the companion volume to a PBS special, is the tale of the surprising discoveries they made while interviewing a host of native speakers and observing everyday verbal interactions across the country. Examining the histories and controversies surrounding both written and spoken American English, MacNeil and Cran address highly emotional anxieties and assumptions about our language-and offer some unpredictable responses. With insight and wit, MacNeil and Cran bring us a compelling follow-up to The Story of English that is at once a celebration and a potent study of our singular language.…
