Product Description
William C. C. Claiborne, the first governor of Orleans Territory, was at the hub of officials who grappled with the political, diplomatic, and administrative challenges that arose following the Louisiana Purchase in 1803.Letters both to and from Claiborne during the critical months of 1804-1805, mysteriously excluded in 1917 from Dunbar Rowland's Official Letter Books of W. C. C. Claiborne, 1801-1816, are now made widely accessible, over half of them published here for the first time.

To enhance appreciation of the letters, Jared William Bradley has furnished biographical sketches of thirty-one heretofore little-known individuals crucial to Claiborne's correspondence, delineating their personalities and their contributions to the development of law and the establishment of American government in the French Creole society.Bradley also treats in four essays the origins and growth of the "Municipal," or the New Orleans city council; two organizations of businessmen that were ensnared in the so-called Burr Conspiracy in 1807; and the early history of Fort St. Phillip, which guarded access to New Orleans from the Gulf of Mexico.

Bradley's essays joined with 218 of Claiborne's letters makes Interim Appointment of incalculable value.It provides fresh insights into the political, constitutional, and social histories of Louisiana and the United States. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT book that has a lot to offer!
I love this book because as an organic gardener myself, it provides many useful tools to help you. One of my favorite features is at the end of each "section", It will tell you the best plants for each type of lawn or preference such as alkaline soil, acidic, shady, sunny, etc, etc, etc. That way, when I want to buy plants, ill know what works perfectly for my yard. The only bad thing I have to say is that if you don't have a lot of money, many of the suggestions will not work for you or you will have to find alternate methods than they provide.

5-0 out of 5 stars Best Reference Guide You'll Ever Buy
What a wonderful book!I have the original version from 30 years ago, but this newest version is even better.Updated pictures, many in color.Updated techniques.Updated for the many new varieties and hybrids.And the best of all, updated with all new organic solutions to help keep our family as healthy and safe as possible.Yes, a wonderful book.

5-0 out of 5 stars Easy to use, broad coverage, good detail on popular items
I've been using this book for the past three weeks to help improve my current garden and take care of new fruit trees I planted this year. The organic angle is appreciated, as the answer isn't always "spray with X". They'll tell you when to use an "organic" chemical and when you should through in the towel (pull it out).

The care of apple, cherry, and peach trees has been very useful in knowing how and when to prune them. It provided very specific details of when and how to prune these trees which I didn't even find in the booklet provided by the tree farm.

The beneficial insect section is good, but I'd like to see identification of bad insects also. I did find some answers when reading about specific plants (I have Mexican beetle larvae on my beans).

The non-veg/fruit sections are also good, and I think provide some good insight into planning and care that I found to be weak in BHG Home Garden book, which is better for specific plant id.

This is an excellent book for both beginners and amateurs. I find it to be good primary book to compliment Internet and State Co-Op Ext resources.

4-0 out of 5 stars Gardening Review-- pretty good.
This is a good review of gardening techniques and plants. It is missing a couple of things that my cousin's old version did have.. like how to prune lilac bushes. If they add more to the pruning section it would be 5 stars.

5-0 out of 5 stars Beautifully done, tremendously useful
This visually stunning book weighs about five pounds. Its 557 pages contain over 2,500 full-color photos, over 200 tables, and over 800 diagrams. Even the inside cover is a two-page spread color graphic. The plant directory covers over 700 plants.

I come from a family of gardeners, and have been gardening all of my life. I've grown some pretty impressive produce, using organic methods. And yet, I found myself learning new things as I read The All New Illustrated Guide to Gardening. This book defines "garden" to include the yard and general landscaping of a home, rather than just the vegetable garden out back. So it also addresses how to have a healthy lawn, keep trees strong, obtain the best shade, provide shelter for birds, and create peaceful areas within even a small back yard. And how to do all of that in a manner that is sustainable and affordable.

This book consists of twenty-seven chapters, each of which addresses a specific type of plant (except there are two topical chapters). It has an introduction and an extensive index. The two topical chapters "book end" the other chapters, and are:

*Planning your garden.
*Lawns and ground covers.

The chapters on plant types include:

*Lawns and ground covers.
*Ones on various types of flowers. For example, there are chapters on irises, peonies, and roses.
*Ferns.
*Bushes.
*Trees.
*Shrubs and vines.
*Fruits.
*Vegetables.
*Herbs.

The book has a big yellow "sticker" looking graphic on its cover. The "sticker" says, "Now All Organic" and that may put some people off. There is nothing weird about organic gardening. Most people use a mix of organic methods and chemical gardening. While you often get faster results from chemical gardening, you do not get better results.

Organic gardening has several benefits:

*Food smells and tastes better. There simply is no comparison. My organic tomatoes and peppers are bigger, darker, more aromatic, and tastier than those of chemical gardeners in this same locale. My plants are bigger, also.

*Food is better. It's got more nutrients and fewer toxins than chemically grown food.

*It's sustainable. Chemical gardening destroys the soil, creating dependency and then ultimately failure. Organic methods build the soil.

*It costs less money out of pocket. Sure, you are going to do more work than simply spraying chemicals on your garden. But you don't have to buy those chemicals in the first place.

*It's earth-friendly. You recycle kitchen scraps and yard waste, thereby reducing landfill requirements. If you need to use pesticides or fungicides, the recommended ones break down quickly and thus don't load our streams and soil with long-lasting chemicals.

*It's harmonious. Animals love an organic garden. Each spring, robins perch on my garden borders while I work the soil. They sing to me, as I dig up the worms they love to eat. Many kinds of birds visit my garden, eating many kinds of pests while there. Toads perch under the kale leaves, and consume massive numbers of insect pests.

I have a clover patch for a rabbit that lives in an evergreen in my backyard (for some reason, the robins keep the rabbit out of the vegetable garden). Bees visit me while I am tending my basil, and alight on my arms (they never sting, as I give them no reason to). Who needs a prescription tranquilizer, when you have this kind of peace and harmony?


Even when you follow organic gardening methods, you do have problems--up to, and including, crop failure. That's a risk you take. The information in this book helps reduce the risk. For example, you prepare the soil properly, plant a variety of crops (if one fails, you have others), rotate crops, watch for problems and catch them early, and so forth.

With organic methods, you don't try for perfection. You reduce risk factors and thus bring problems down to a tolerable level. In so doing, you eliminate the "cure is worse than the disease" problem that inflicts so many chemical-dependent gardeners. This book reminded me of my own laxity in practicing crop rotation. It's something I need to improve on ("It's the rotation, stupid.").

Planning, prevention, and focused attention are the "secrets" to successful organic gardening. These prevent you from needing to throw chemicals at a problem that shouldn't have occurred in the first place. Follow the practices recommended in this book, and the garden just about takes care of itself. In the event it doesn't, this book provides a wealth of advice on remediation.

Even if you already enjoy success as an organic gardener, you will no doubt find much value in this book. And, you could use it to teach people who ask why your flowers are so bright or your tomatoes taste so good.

Another benefit of reading a book like this is that understanding this information can help when you seek professional advice. When I visit my garden shop with a problem, the fact that I am generally following recommended practices means something to the experts. (I suppose it doesn't hurt to give a 9 lb honeydew melon to the resident expert, either....).

When you don't grasp the fundamentals, it's discouraging to those who could help you. This book clearly explains the fundamentals, and then takes you beyond them.

For a book of this size, there are surprisingly few editing errors. The writing was clear, requiring no mental gymnastics to understand what was being said. Typos are almost nonexistent, and the grammar is correct throughout. I have found correct grammar to be the exception, not the rule, in publishing today--kudos to those who care enough about readers to respect our language.

The All New Illustrated Guide to Gardening should be on every serious gardener's bookshelf or coffee table. Read it through once as a tutorial, and refer to it often. Its organization and arrangement make it easy to find answers to just about any gardening problem. Reviewing the applicable sections in winter before planning spring gardening activities is also a wise investment of time.

The one sad thing about this book is it's so useful that you're going to end up leaving its beautiful pages soiled and dog-eared. At least, I know that's what'll happen with my copy. Whether you want a great coffee table book or a practical guide to healthy gardening practices, this book is for you. ... Read more

Product Description
More yachts are sailed and moored in the waters covered by this pilot than in any other area of Great Britain. The Solent provides a beautiful and comparatively safe area in which yachtsmen can cruise or race in all but the most extreme weather. However, it is not without its hazards and the pleasure-seeking yachtsman can often be caught off guard by the natural phenomena of tides and shallows and by the man-made dangers created by busy shipping lanes whose traffic includes everything from supertankers to high speed ferries. This edition contains new pilotage notes, navigational charts and other port information. ... Read more

Product Description
Gregory Green builds homemade book and suitcase bombs, Leon Golub paints monumentally trenchant street scenes, Richard Misrach shoots color photographs of Playboy magazines used for target practice, and Sue Williams sculpts a heartbreakingly abused woman in fetal position. The Culture of Violence presents a broad, multicultural, interdisciplinary approach to the subject of violence as manifested in the media, in the lives of children and their families, and the work of these and other artists, including Bruce Nauman, Ida Applebroog, Mel Chin, Kristin Oppenheim, and Lucinda Devlin. Organized around thematic categories that cut across class and gender and range from political to personal expressions of violence, including terrorism and hate crimes, government-sanctioned execution, youth and gang violence, street crime, and domestic violence, The Culture of Violence includes a conversation on violence and culture in medieval epics and contemporary media, and a proscriptive essay on coping with family violence.

Ida Applebroog, Beth B, Mel Chin, Sue Coe, Elizabeth Cohen, Michael Talley, Willie Cole, Luninda Davlin, Peggy Diggs, Leon Golub, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Barbara Kruger, Richard Misrach, Bruce Nauman, and Joel Sternefld amongst others.

list price: US$24.95

Canada | United Kingdom | Germany | France | Japan
Editorial Review

Product Description
Haida Gwai, the Queen Charlotte Islands, occupy a special place in the natural and human history of the northwest coast of North America. Separated from the mainland by many kilometres of water, they retain a distinctness that reflects millennia of isolation. The area was still relatively untouched by European exploration when, in the summer of 1878, the young geologist George M. Dawson arrived there on behalf of the Geological Survey of Canada. One of the field scientists of his time, Dawson drew maps, collected fossils, plant and insect specimens, and investigated the ethnology of the native people. His personal interest in native culture makes his reports and private journals interesting. Ironically, Dawson's belief that it was in the interest of the natives to give up their way of life in order to become integrated into Canadian society made him realize the importance of preserving a record of their cultures. He collected artifacts and took photographs which have become widely known for their early depictions of Haida villages and architecture. ... Read more
