Synopsis The Canvas Coffin by : William Campbell Gault
The fighter had a dream. . . . Some men were sewing a body into canvas. It was on the deck of a ship. There was a big seam up the middle of the canvas, and now only the face was still uncovered . . . ''You want to take a last look, champ?'' one of the men asked. ''We're about ready to dump him.'' The fighter bent to see in the moonlight. The face in the canvas was his own . . . The fighter was Luke Pilgrim, middleweight champion of the world. Luke could handle any man in the ring. He also could handle the hoods who were trying to muscle in on his next fight . . . But there was one thing he couldn't handle - and that was murder . . .

Synopsis The Diary of Nathaniel Coffin by : Steven Lee Benson
The story begins in the year 1819 when Nathaniel Coffin turns sixteen years, shortly after the tragic deaths of his parents and nine-year-old sister Christiana. Life became even more difficult after he was adopted by an alcoholic aunt named May Nickerson. Coincidentally, it was also the height of the sperm whale industry. His childhood wish to work on a whaling ship became all-consuming. Conflict soon arose after just six weeks at seathe result of a senseless harpoon strike that took the life of Nathans close friend and shipmate, Billy McGiven. Ostracized by his captain and crew, the offender, Duncan Albury, was set ashore. Ruthless and mean-spirited by nature, Albury found another ship, became its pirate captain, and orchestrated his revenge, which culminated on a secluded beach in Port Royal, Jamaica, setting the stage for a bloody and poignant battle. The odds are thirty to two. Do Nathan and Blackjack survive?

Within the discussion of mass-produced coffin hardware in North America is new work connecting the North American industry with its British antecedents and a fresh analysis of the prime factors that led to the introduction and spread of mass-produced coffin hardware. Extensively illustrated with examples of coffin hardware to aid scholars and professionals in identification.

Synopsis The War Is Not Over by : James F. Nettleman
The Civil War was over, but not for Jake Nichols. Four years earlier, he and the other members of the Loomis Battery marched out of Coldwater, Michigan, eager to fight the Rebels. For two years, they were very successful. Then came Chickamauga. Two of Jake's best friends died in that battle. But something else happened at Chickamauga-something devastating, something that wouldn't let Jake find peace. The problem was that he couldn't remember what had happened. After the war, Jake decided to head west to have time alone. He wanted to remember what happened on that dreadful day. He wanted to heal. He wanted to find peace. What Jake found was that others needed his help, his wits, and his gun.

Synopsis Pallbearing by : Michael Melgaard
An honest and unaffected collection of human experiences that deftly tackles themes of grief, loss, missed opportunities, and the pain of letting go. The stories in Michael Melgaard’s poignant debut collection, Pallbearing, offer candid snapshots of life in a small town, where the struggle to make ends meet forces people into desperate choices. In “Little to Lose,” a son confronts his mother over the crushing prison of debt created by her gambling addiction. The aging divorcee in “Coming and Going” spends her days in paranoid pursuit of evidence with which to incriminate her neighbours in the derelict trailer park where she lives. And in “Stewart and Rose,” lifelong friends find love after their respective partners die — and then face loss all over again. With deceptively spare prose that carries outsized emotional weight and pathos, Melgaard brings his characters to life in sharp-edged portraits and all-too-human dilemmas, creating engaging stories that resonate with honesty and depth, and linger in the imagination.
