Details This guide is an examination of the historical and cultural background to left-handedness, including a consideration of the negative overtone of the words "sinister" and "gauche" and the ancient cultural mistrust of lefties. There is an analysis of recent psychological research, covering the "right-brain"/"left-brain" issue, assessing its implication for left- and right-handers. The book also looks at the effects on children of having been made to write with their right hand (and subsequently...

After reviewing the awkward new FIRE! record it's nice to have something a with a few more tunes to write about, and this single here is packed full of the bloody things. Half-handed Cloud offer up five whole songs on their side, while even I Was A King manage to stretch theirs to two.

A small format flicker-book illustrating, in one direction, the single-handed cast with a flyrod, and in the other direction, the double-handed cast. A series of at least thirty-five of these books were published in the late 1920s and early 1930s.

All are extremely scarce.

The travels of this set do not stop there. In each volume there is a slip of paper pasted in with a manuscript note in Paddy Leigh Fermor's hand within a typical decorative border of flying birds.

Kardamyli June 30 1999". Each volume also bears one of Fermor's cards, printed in Greek, paper-clipped to the front free endpaper...
