Wild New York: A Celebration of Our State's Natural Beauty

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Brumley, Charles / Heilman, Carl / McKibben, Bill, PUBLISHER: Voyageur Press (MN), New York comes alive in the pages of "Wild New York." Author Charles Brumley and photographer Carl E. Heilman II traveled thousands of miles to give us this photographic portrait of the state's diverse and unique natural areas. Our state has nearly every type of natural landscape found in the continental United States New York is the majestic Niagara Falls and the sandy beaches of Long Island. It is the stunning, historic Hudson Valley and the massive inland seas of Lakes Erie and Ontario. It is the fragile acres of alpine flora above Adirondack tree line and the snowy skies of the Tug Hill Plateau. " Wild New York" is the natural beauty of our state; it is what we see, hear, and feel as we paddle the longest free-flowing river in the northeast, the Delaware River; hike the state's highest peak, Mt. Marcy; or gaze across the steep gorge of Cattaraugus Creek in the underappreciated Zoar Valley. It is the call of the loon on countless lakes and ponds throughout Adirondack Park; the pounding of a powerful ocean surf on Long Island. It is that still, golden late-summer afternoon when you know the Empire State is where you're meant to be.

The Bootlegger's Other Daughter

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Cimarolli, Mary, PUBLISHER: Texas A&M University Press, The generation that toiled through the Great Depression and won the Second World War has become known as "the greatest generation." But not all of them qualified for the exaggerated epithet in the eyes of their own children. In this tender but unsparing memoir, Mary Cimarolli remembers a world in which the family home was lost to foreclosure, her father made his way by bootlegging, and school was a haven in which to hide from her brother's teasing. Her stories are about struggle and survival, making do and overcoming, and, ultimately, reconciliation. From her perspective as a child, she describes the cotton stamps and other programs of the New Deal, the yellow-dog Democrat politics and racism of East Texas, and the religious revivals and Old Settlers reunions that gave a break from working in the cotton patch. Along with these regional and national trends, Cimarolli skillfully interweaves the personal: conflict between her parents, the death of her brother a few days before his sixteenth birthday, and her own inner tensions.

Ghost Town Stories of the Red Coat Trail: From Renegade to

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bachusky, Johnnie, PUBLISHER: Heritage House Publishing, The Red Coat Trail of southern Saskatchewan and southeastern Alberta runs near the route of the North West Mounted Police's famous March West. Today, this lonely highway passes through a windswept land of abandoned towns. Johnnie Bachusky takes readers back to the heyday of this region, when booming pioneer towns sprang up as settlers travelled west during the last great land rush. The Roaring Twenties brought bumper harvests but also bootleggers and bank robbers; fortunes were won and lost in raucous hotels and pool halls, and high-stakes poker games went on all night. The Great Depression devastated the area. Disease, drought, dust storms and grasshoppers took their toll. Some towns simply vanished; others now contain rows of boarded-up homes and businesses. But their history comes to life in these stories. From an account of a s bank robbery in Manyberries to the tales of a boisterous Govenlock rancher who hunted with Buffalo Bill Cody and Wild Bill Hickok, these are compelling portraits of lost towns and the memorable characters who once called them home.

The first part features original essays by well-known authors such as Francine Prose, Joyce Carol Oates, and Andre Dubus that take the student through the process of writing These essays focus on the characteristics and craft of the short story and its writer, and take the student from the workshopping process all the way through the experience of working with agents and publishers.

Lost in Transition: Ethnographies of Everyday Life After

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ghodsee, Kristen Rogheh, PUBLISHER: Duke University Press, "Lost in Transition" tells of ordinary lives upended by the collapse of communism. Through ethnographic essays and short stories based on her experiences with Eastern Europe between and , Kristen Ghodsee explains why it is that so many Eastern Europeans are nostalgic for the communist past. Ghodsee uses Bulgaria, the Eastern European nation where she has spent the most time, as a lens for exploring the broader transition from communism to democracy. She locates the growing nostalgia for the communist era in the disastrous, disorienting way that the transition was handled. The privatization process was contested and chaotic. A few well-connected foreigners and a new local class of oligarchs and criminals used the uncertainty of the transition process to take formerly state-owned assets for themselves. Ordinary people inevitably felt that they had been robbed. Many people lost their jobs just as the state social-support system disappeared. "Lost in Transition" portrays one of the most dramatic upheavals in modern history by describing the ways that it interrupted the rhythms of everyday lives, leaving confusion, frustration, and insecurity in its wake.

The Collected Short Stories of Louis L'Amour: The Frontier

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: L'Amour, Louis, PUBLISHER: Random House Large Print Publishing, Louis L'Amour's world is built on those dramatic moments when men and women cast their fears, doubts, and pasts behind them and plunge into the unknown-into split-second decisions with life-and-death consequences. Nowhere is that more evident than in this latest collection of stories set on the American frontier. Here L'Amour takes us across a bold, beautifully rendered landscape where strangers may come to trust-or kill-one another; where old scores haunt new lives and the wrong choice leaves unwitting victims. Even at the best of times, this is a world in which every man and woman must be responsible for their own survival. This keepsake volume features unforgettable moments and timeless characters. From fugitives to visionaries, from fortune seekers and drifters seeking a new life to young women trying to build homes in an all too often lawless world, the characters in these pulse-pounding stories are vintage L'Amour. Together in this vivid, rollicking collection of stories, they bring to life the American spirit and confirm Louis L'Amour's place at the very top of the pantheon of American writers.

de Kooning's Bicycle: Artists and Writers in the Hamptons

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Long, Robert, PUBLISHER: Farrar Straus Giroux, Some of the twentieth century's most important artists and writers--from Jackson Pollock to Saul Steinberg, Frank O'Hara to Jean Stafford--lived and worked on the East End of Long Island years before it assumed an alternate identity as the Hamptons. The home they made there, and its effect on their work, is the subject of these searching, lyrical vignettes by the critic and poet Robert Long. Pollock moved to Springs because he thought he wanted to stop drinking, but he found a connection to nature there that inspired some of the most significant paintings of our time. Others followed him. When Fairfield Porter bought a house in Southampton, the New York School suddenly had a new headquarters, and James Schuyler and Frank O'Hara found companionship and raw material for their poems on South Main Street and on the three-hour train ride between the city and the East End. Willem de Kooning rode his bike every day between his studio in the East Hampton woods and the bay, where the light informed every brushstroke he put to canvas from the early s on. In "De Kooning's Bicycle, " Long mixes storytelling with history to re-create the lives and events that shaped American art and literature as we know it today, in a landscape where town met country and the modern met America's rural past.
