Synopsis"Since the earliest days," writes Richard Chase in this classic study, "the American novel, in its most original and characteristic form, has worked out its destiny and defined itself by incorporating an element of romance." In his detailed study of works by Charles Brockden Brown, James Fenimore Cooper, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Herman Melville, Mark Twain, Henry James, Frank Norris, George Washington Cable, William Dean Howells, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and William Faulkner, Chase identifies and traces this tradition through two centuries of American literature. The best novelists, he argues, have found uses for romance beyond the escapism, fantasy, and sentimentality often associated with it. Through romance, these writers mirror the extremes of American culture-the Puritan melodrama of good and evil, or the pastoral idyll inspired by the American wilderness.

  • A life Saver

    Reading through the book was well worth it. It was a confirmation of what I already knew about the medical community, but I saw how they really worked (or didn't work) in the case of the author. He said that he became his own doctor taking his own health responsibly; he did his homework and learned from some great herbal pioneers. Dick graciously shares what he has learned and what he has put into practice. His life is an open book, showing us how we can also use these experiences and hopefully find freedom from the bondage of our health issues. The book is easy to read and understand. As you read this book, you will see Dick's compassion for people who are suffering from heart disease. I took to heart his wisdom and am very hopeful.

  • Left for Dead is an awesome book based on real-life experiences by the author.

    Left for Dead is a great book by the author who was actually "left for dead" and how he recovered and used Cayonne Pepper to get this blood flowing through his heart again. He saved his own life when the medical society declined to help him. I thoroughly enjoyed his story and have shared the book with many of my friends and family.

  • Must read

    This book is the first part of the larger story of Dick Quinn's life, but is a must read for anyone who wants to be responsible for their own health. "Left For Dead" is what his doctors basic attitude was after there was no improvement after the by-pass surgery. Dick is told about and eventually tries the amazing herb of cayenne and the book is about how it helped him and turned around his life. The book is a very interesting read but doesn't give 'the rest of the story' ... so I recommend reading the part 2 of the story ( Death By Deception) ...as years later, some decisions Dick made were not the wisest ones, and led to his death years later from congestive heart failure. (Spoiler: the herbs did work up to a point...yet Dick did not change his fast-food (cheeseburgers) , fast-paced (early am interviews to late pm on the road) lifestyle...and herbs can't change all of that! )

  • The title surely describes much of modern medicine.

    Well written. I tried his suggestions and they really work. I feel better than I have for a long time. Much more energy and I don't even have heart problems. My husband also tried them and he is having no more irregular heart beat problems.

  • a gift of health

    Blood circulation is the main key to healthy body function. This book provides a quality guideline with the use of capsicum/cayenne pepper to assist with blood circulation and thus a potentially better quality of life. Cayenne pepper is a healing agent - do the research by Dr. Christopher.

  • Good book

    Very interesting information and story. Great food for thought. If you are interested in using natural remedies in conjunction with western medicine, this book is a good read.

  • Doctors don't always have all the answers. We must help ourselves as well.

    Lots of info about the use of cayenne pepper. Very valuable in the treatment of heart attack. Especially immediately following after a heart episode.
