    Three classic novellas from “one of our master chroniclers of human hungers, flaws, and frustrations.” (The Kansas City Star).   Jim Harrison’s vivid, tender, and deeply felt fictions have won him acclaim as an American master of the novella. His highly acclaimed volume of novellas, The Summer He Didn’t Die, is a sparkling and exuberant collection about love, the senses, and family, no matter how untraditional. In the title novella, Brown Dog, a hapless Michigan Indian, is trying to parent his two stepchildren and take care of his family’s health on meager resources. (It helps a bit that his charms are irresistible to the new dentist in town.) Republican Wives is a wicked satire on the sexual neuroses of the right, the emptiness of a life lived for the status quo, and the irrational power of love that, when thwarted, can turn so easily into an urge to murder. And Tracking is a meditation on Harrison’s fascination with place, telling his own familiar mythology through the places his life has seen and the intellectual loves he has known.   With wit as sharp and prose as lush as any Harrison has yet written, The Summer He Didn’t Die is a resonant, warm, and joyful ode to our journey on this earth.   “Harrison has proved to be one of our finest storytellers. These novellas are urgent and contemporary, displaying his marvelous gifts for compression and idiosyncratic language.” —Los Angeles Times

    George Roberts of Virginia is a captain without a ship. But when he meets his charismatic friend Ned Low, and they share a glass or two, he realizes the next day that he’s signed on as first mate for a voyage to retrieve a fortune in gold.  
    Writing in a variety of genres during the golden age of the pulps, and heavily influenced by Alexandre Dumas, Henry James O’Brian Bedford-Jones was enormously prolific - writing nearly 200 novels, 400 novelettes, and 800 short stories.  
    This story is a standout for several reasons. The plucky woman on board is anything but a damsel in distress. Themes of redemption and honor feature significantly. But rest assured, there’s plenty of action – it is a pirate story, after all!
