		<description><![CDATA[Evelyn Waugh's "Brideshead Revisited" for years has been a favorite of mine, not just the book but also the PBS series that starred Jeremy Irons and Anthony Andrews. Yet so many say this well-known novel is not Waugh's most accomplished work, and now I agree. <img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thelongestchapter.com&amp;blog=6766929&amp;post=10688&amp;subd=thelongestchapter&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When Ohio artist Matt Kish got the idea to illustrate the Signet Classic paperback of Herman Melville's "Moby-Dick," he decided to produce an illustration for every page. (The Signet Classic runs north of 500 pages.) He completed the project in 543 days. Here's the story of how that happened, and illustrations from the beautiful book that's published by Tin House Books.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thelongestchapter.com&amp;blog=6766929&amp;post=10018&amp;subd=thelongestchapter&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This historical novel about President Lincoln's assassination was published 50 years ago and is newly reissued by the New York Review of Books Classics. It's a great rip of a read that, unlike more contemporary historical novels, sticks close to actual events and people.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thelongestchapter.com&amp;blog=6766929&amp;post=8996&amp;subd=thelongestchapter&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
