Dr Herbert West's modest ambition is to revive the dead.A gifted vivisector, he obtains some early successes with guinea pigs, rabbits, cats dogs and cute little monkeys, but when it comes to people the problem is FRESHNESS. The human brain, as it turns out, can never be fresh enough. Along the long and troubled road to eventual success, his more resounding failures include a college Dean who is brought back to life as a savage mockery of academic excellence, a champion heavyweight boxer is transformed into a quadrupedal cannibal, and finally there is the egregious Sir Eric Moreland Clapham-Lee D.S.O., who's brilliant telepathic head and superb athletic body are fully revived - separately.Of course, when the average dearly departed corpse is buried in the normal fashion, it is scarcely liable to be very fresh and ABSOLUTE FRESHNESS is of paramount importance when utilizing the good doctor's "vaccine". Thus West has no choice but to obtain ABSOLUTE FRESHNESS by manually removing mere natural life from one of his specimens before injecting his miracle cure as quickly as possible. The result is satisfactory and at long last Herbert proves his theory, although some stick-in-the-muds might cluck their tongues and wonder whether his scientific triumph didn't involve the heinous crime of murder. But anyway, this incredible victory over death comes at a heavy cost , , ,A number of his reanimated specimens, monsters indeed, have eluded Herbert's Smith and Wesson .45 (his favourite instrument for administering euthanasia) and naturally he is haunted by the looming spectre of their unspeakable vengeance. So, the outlook looks pretty grim. Or does it? Perhaps, just perhaps Herbert's biographer and intimate friend, Howard, who narrators this rollicking, if grisly tale, is nothing better than a drooling lunatic, contaminating the innocent page with obscene horrors spawned by his own addled cerebellum. All of it written in Mad-Doctor Latin too.But who is really insane?Is it Dr Herbert West?Is it Howard Phillips Lovecraft?Or is it you, Dear Reader . . . ?Only time will tell.

A nineteenth-century masterclass in Latin. Clear, rigorous, and eminently useful. Albert Harkness's Second Latin Book pairs a historical Latin reader with succinct notes and methodical rules for translating, and an exercise-book that develops a complete analytical syntax through a carefully graded series of lessons and drills. Each lesson centres on the construction, analysis and reconstruction of Latin sentences, training the student to recognise syntactic patterns and to convert analysis into confident composition. As a Latin language textbook it combines philological care with practical translation training, giving readers tools to approach classical authors with informed attention rather than rote memorisation.Organised for progressive study, the volume supplies analytical syntax exercises and targeted drills in Latin sentence construction that reward deliberate practice. It suits self-directed learners and classroom settings alike, from Latin for self-study and a homeschool Latin curriculum to more formal classical language study and university revision. Teachers, students and collectors seeking advanced Latin practice will appreciate the book's systematic translation rules and clear exposition; within the Harkness Latin series it stands as a pedagogy-first classical education resource that privileges method over gimmick. The text's steady, workmanlike tone makes it unusually approachable for casual readers curious about classical language study while offering depth for seasoned students.Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today, a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Historically significant as an exemplar of nineteenth century Latin pedagogy, it appeals equally to casual readers curious about classical languages and to collectors of classical literature who prize faithful, workmanlike educational texts. Collectors value its faithful presentation of period pedagogy, while casual readers may relish the clear, hands-on approach to translation and sentence composition. A useful companion for modern students and teachers.
