...show is probably the best detective series on TV. Unfortunately, it is not quite good enough. Though Falk is a delight to watch in one of the medium's meatiest roles, the writers frequently fail to support him with plausible scripts or the final surprise that their formula demands.

In fact, there was even some grumbling this year about the menu at the usually lavish annual banquet. Instead of feasting upon healthy portions of some exquisite gourmet's delight, delegates were served a spare repas of turkey and dressing, mashed potatoes, green peas and rice pudding. There wasn't even a salad, because SCLC supports the boycott on lettuce. The reason for both the thin menu and much of the general restlessness at the convention is the same: SCLC...

...facsimile with explanatory text. The epic tells of ancient kings of Persia, real and mythical, beset by devils and dynastic rivalries. The pictures are Persian miniatures, with details so fine that they had to be painted with brushes made from kitten fur and the tails of squirrels. A delight, an education and one of the year's best buys...
