Cheap at 10x the price
I bought this assuming it to be the usual "mini guide" at an enhanced price. In fact it's a detailed guide to the use, controls, and basic guide to DV videography. Unlike many guidebooks the details of a number of DV ENG cameras are given and the relative features outlined.
A useful book if you're considering the increasing number of cheap yet reliable DV cameras being old t reasonable/cheap price.

Not used for long but well designed. Useful wall fitting if preferred keeping it away from animals or small fingers. Appears to be pretty sturdy with

Interesting bygone
Surely the best known Christie story, but blessed (or cursed!)by an alternative theatrical ending,together with a later racial prejudice undertone.
The original British 1939 edition was titled Ten Little Niggers but changed to And Then There Were None for the 1940 USA edition.The change in USA was accompanied by a change to the verse to "Ten little Indians" I believe, which puzzles me as it seems no less racial and more directly abusive than the original!
The story is simple, 10 people are "trapped" on "Nigger" or "Indian" island as a result of invites or jobs.One by one they're "bumped off" 'till just two remain.
In the book both are killed or die while in the play they marry,s per one rhyme version.
The mystery is apparently insoluble until a fisherman picks up a "message in a bottle".
My interest is in the versions of this story as well as its symbolism.
As a child in the 50s with typical UK big city views of the world the "golliwog" of one book version would no more represent a black person than a "cindy" doll a white.Generally people tended to get "known" by where they came from be it Manchester,Barbados,Glasgow or Jamaica."Nigger" was never a UK term and until I read "The Nigger of the Narcissus" not a term I'd met.
By the time this large print version had been produced however the UK had joined pc and I was surprised to find the book contents unchanged despite the title.Whilst in ignorance feminists might deem Amen offensive whilst not accepting it means "so be it" niggers continued in use.Further, in a number of current translations the noun persists!
