Educated at Dovedale Primary School and Quarry Bank High School, he studied English and Philosophy at Liverpool University and his picture now hangs in the entrance hallway to the Philosophy Department. 2: Means of Ascent Vol.3: Master of the Senate Vol.Clive Barker was born in Liverpool, England, the son of Joan Rubie (née Revill), a painter and school welfare officer, and Leonard Barker, a personnel director for an industrial relations firm. John Hope Franklin (and Evelyn Brooks Higginbotham)Ĩ The Years of Lyndon Johnson: Vol. The stripes scream Communism though, Communists have effective propaganda much like Socialist/NAZI authoritarians, which keeps me reserved on a Nazi book, but, lo and behold it is the only book on this list that seems to be anywhere near the design.ġ Battle Cry of Freedom: The American Civil War EraĢ A History of Christianity: The First Three Thousand YearsĦ The Wilderness Journeys: Vol 1: A Thousand Mile Walk to the Gulf Vol II: My First Summer in the Sierra Vol III: Travels in Alaskaħ From Slavery to Freedom: A History of African-Americans I've been deep in some threads here and I feel like the Kershaw book has been tossed around before. Some great works that probably are just too short to get the Folio treatment by themselves: Legion by William Peter Blatty (FS did The Exorcist, so why not? I know Suntup is doing Legion (which I'll have in my hands before too long) but I don't think that factors in for FS.) The Dead Zone, Salem's Lot, and The Dark Half might make for decent horror King choices this time around. (PS Publishing is about to publish an edition of DS, but it does not appear to be to my taste). I found FS' editions of Misery and The Shining hopelessly flat (I don't need blood squirting at me, but some atmosphere is necessary if I'm to spend more than $15 on a book) and Kinsella's flavorless treatments were a big part of that.Ī FS (Kinsella-less) Different Seasons could be great although, not being horror, that doesn't apply to this list.

I wouldn't mind another from Stephen King (technically I'm a fan, although he has many things I wouldn't read again), but for me to buy, they must leave Kinsella behind.
