Die Zwölf Heiligen Nächte
Ein «Schatzkästlein» in Buchform, ein Vademekum («Geh mit mir!») durch die Zwölf Heiligen Nächte von Weihnachten bis zum Dreikönigstag.
Dass in der Gegenwart der Weg durch die Zwölf Heiligen Nächte nicht mehr so, wie man dies im Mittelalter gepflegt hat, begangen werden kann, ergibt sich von selbst durch die andere Gemüts- und Bewusstseinsverfassung. Es wird jeder Zeitgenosse den «Weg durch die Zwölf Heiligen Nächte» auf eine ihm gemäße Weise begehen wollen. Dieses Buch soll ein Vademekum sein für solche Zeitgenossen, die diese besonderen Nächte und Tage nicht besinnungslos vertreiben, sondern sie nutzen wollen zur «mystischen Vertiefung»: weil dafür keine Jahreszeit der Seele so günstig gestimmt ist wie diese (Rudolf Steiner).

The Spell of Japan
The year is 1914. A distinguished couple had arrived overland two years previously from Europe via Russia and Korea to Yokohama and on to Tokyo. The gentleman, Mr. Larz Anderson, assumes the role of American ambassador to Japan. His wife, Isabel-a glamourous, Boston-born heiress-submerges herself in the rich, yet little known culture of Imperial Japan.With ready access to Japanese high society, Isabel records court custom, art, costume and ritual as few Western visitors have before. Yet her lack of pretension and keen observation allows her to describe the life of the common people of old Japan in just as lucid prose.The Spell of Japan takes the us through Japanese occupied Korea, to the gilded temples of Kyoto and the splendours of the Imperial court of Tokyo. An illuminating journey for the modern tourist, the armchair traveller and amateur historian alike. (lib)

Zigzagging
The redoubtable Mrs. Anderson's Great WarBoston socialite Isabel Weld Perkins (later Anderson) inherited $5,000,000 when she was 5 years old in 1881, so began her life of privilege. Nevertheless, when the First World War broke out she volunteered as a canteen worker in America, where she became the leader of Washington's Red Cross activities and Belgian relief work. She then crossed to Europe to work in the war-zone, operating a Red Cross canteen for a period of time before working as a nurse, at one point in the company of the Queen of Belgium in a hospital operating theatre. Anxious to understand conditions in the trenches she travelled extensively through the front lines, where the redoubtable ladies from the Cellar House of Pervyse make an appearance, before travelling to England and then experiencing war at sea, including narrowly avoiding being sunk by a torpedo from a German U-Boat. This is an intriguing view of the Great War from an American woman's perspective.Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.
