This book is designed to help you in many ways. While its main objective is to save you money, precisely how much you wish to save depends on you. There are ways to save a little and other ways to make greater savings. Some require very little in the way of effort, others are not possible without a certain degree of sacrifice or compromise in your life. Most of us do not earn as much as we think we need, and are constantly left wishing for that little bit extra. This book will not necessarily make you money, which is a different area altogether, but it will help you to utilise what money you.

The life of Emily Dickinson, Richard B. Sewall''s monumental biography of the great American poet (1830-1886), wont the National Book Award when it was originally publsihed in two volumes. Now available in the one-volume eidtion, it has been called "by far the best and most complete study of the poet''s life yet to be written, the result of nearly twenty years of work" (The Atlantic). R.W.B. Lewis has hailed it as "a major event in Americn letters," adding that "Richard Sewall''s biographical vision of Emily Dickinson is as complete as humans cholarship, ingenuity, stylistic pungency, and common sense can arrive at."

A thirty year friendship of Joseph Bardwell Lyman with the Dickinson family revealed through a few remaining letters.
