 | Watson-Guptill Sketchbooks by Watson-Guptill Publications Staff
Both serious artists and casual doodlers can use these handsome sketchbooks, now offered in four colors, three sizes, and with the option of a spiral Wire-O binding. Many choose the popular large format for sketching outdoors or for toting to art class. Others like to toss the smaller sizes into a purse or backpack. The archival-quality, vellum-finish paper is especially appealing to artists. It will not yellow with time, ensuring the preservation of their drawings, and its smooth surface readily accepts any drawing medium. The spiral-bound version allows it to lie flat. The covers have a leather-like finish but are actually tough, waterproof Kivar. AUTHOR: Watson-Guptill Publications Staff

 | Crucible by Alexandra Stoddart, Arthur Miller, Jerome Dempsey, Stuart Pankin
Set during the Salem witchcraft trials, this play is most famous for its metaphor for McCarthyism--in fact, three years after the play was produced, Miller himself was called before HUAC. In the play, Miller used colonial language to near-poetic effect; the plot involves characters who have to make certain moral choices concerning their communities and their friends. Miller explores the handy scapegoat that an accusation of witchcraft can be: a father can dismiss his daughter's behavior, a landowner can acquire still more land, a serving girl can attract attention to herself, and emotions can be displaced onto other people. Miller fully explores the power of an accusing figure. AUTHOR: Alexandra Stoddart, Arthur Miller, Jerome Dempsey, Stuart Pankin
