A fabulous gift for Christmas: # "RIDE THE EAST WIND: Parables of Yesterday and Today" by Edmund C. Berkeley, Author and Anthologist Over fifty parables (including anecdotes, allegories, and fables) by Berkeley and many other authors, modern and ancient, dealing with famous problems, modern, classic, or ageless. Many parables are decorated by a bouquet of proverbs and quotations - for readers who like to choose which variety of lesson appeals to them. A short guide to some patches of common sense and wisdom. An ideal gift. Illustrated. Hard cover. 224 pages. The eagle in the great forest flew swiftly, but the Eastwind flew more swiftly still Do you remember the story of the fox and the grapes? illustrating a principle of such timeless value that the phrase "sour grapes" has been used and understood by millions of people for 2000 years? Well, why not make a collection of ideas and principles of common sense and wisdom - and why not illustrate them with fables, allegories, and anecdotes of enormous impact? That was the plan of this book. It comes right out of our work on the "Notebook on Common Sense and Wisdom, Elementary and Advanced" - which we have been talking about for two years to anyone who would listen. Some of the issues of the Notebook roused the interest of the president of Quadrangle Books - and this book is one of the results. - You might find much of it humorous and imaginative as did Aesop's listeners. You can't lose by taking a look at this book: - You might enjoy it. - You might find it instructive, philosophical, worth thinking about, and more besides. You can see it, read it, keep it for 7 days, return it, and back comes the full price of the book. How can you lose? We want only satisfied customers.
