SASSI ROBINS needs money. Lots of money. If she can't get her hands on enough by Dario Correa's deadline, she'll be forced to walk down the aisle at his side. Damning her father for dying and leaving her with his debts won't help. She needs a job, one that pays damn well. CAPTAIN SWAIN needs a cook. One who can cast off without delay, and he doesn't mind paying for the privilege. The waif who shows up for the job doesn't seem like she'll last a day on the waves. But the sweet-smelling wench has a fire that draws him in, mesmerizes him, and makes him lose his mind. Although Sassi knows she should resist the gruff, overbearing master of the vessel, it's a fight she can't win. On his ship, she's his to do with as he pleases… and his desires have a lot to do with pleasing her. But the fantasy can't last. Reality is waiting for her onshore and time is working against them. Sassi has to let her captain go to save his life and fight against the clock to save her own.

This major source of Chinese mythology (third century BC to second century AD) contains a treasure trove of rare data and colorful fiction about the mythical figures, rituals, medicine, natural history, and ethnic peoples of the ancient world. The Classic of Mountains and Seas explores 204 mythical figures such as the gods Foremost, Fond Care, and Yellow, and goddesses Queen Mother of the West and Girl Lovely, as well as many other figures unknown outside this text. This eclectic Classic also contains crucial information on early medicine (with cures for impotence and infertility), omens to avert catastrophe, and rites of sacrifice, and familiar and unidentified plants and animals. It offers a guided tour of the known world in antiquity, moving outwards from the famous mountains of central China to the lands “beyond the seas.” Translated with an introduction and notes by Anne Birrell.

When Ansgar and Kristine lost their Wisconsin farmstead to foreclosure in April of 1935, Albert Victor Ravenholt, the oldest of nine surviving children, stepped up and provided the family with invaluable resources. This biography tells the story of Albert's remarkable life beginning on a small Wisconsin dairy farm, to his travels abroad and his work as a writer and foreign correspondent in the Orient. West over the Seas to the Orient begins as Albert emerges from his boyhood a stellar student, and it details the journey of his fascinating career-attending Grand View College in Des Moines, Iowa; working as a steward at the New York World's Fair; becoming chief cook on the MS Agra, a Swedish vessel bound for the Orient; working as a convoy leader for Red Cross trucks hauling medical supplies from Lashio on the Burma Road; and becoming a United Press war correspondent for China/Burma/India. Containing a detailed family history, many photographs, and copies of Albert's publications, this biography tells the story of a man who applied his remarkable talents to help the Ravenholt family escape poverty; a man who guided, intervened, and supported the developmental activities of his siblings.
