The History of Making Books by Scholastic Books

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. This guide provides information about the movie Straw Dogs (1971), which has recently been remade with the same title. It introduces the movie as well as the novel it is based on, The Siege of Trencher's Farm. This guide discusses the literary influences on the film: Tao Te Ching and straw dogs. It also contains sections on the real world influences on Straw Dogs (1971): mathematicians, England, opposition to the U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War, Cornwall, and mantraps. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge.
