"Part rousing travel adventure through a little-known world and part popular ethnography, exploring how Zapotec women earned their legendary status in a remote corner of southern Mexico. To satisfy his curiosity about this culture, Tom DeMott journeyed to the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, where he discovered a thriving modern-day matriarchy among the people of the Isthmus - a cultural crossroads, breeding ground for rebels, and home to a half-million Zapotecs. DeMott integrated himself into the culture by joining in the rites of spring (where women pelt the men with fruit) ; by interviewing the women who control the marketplace where men are rarely seen; and by honoring the saints with drink and dance at all-night ceremonies. Evoking these singular women and their culture, DeMott tackles a primal question: What would life be like if women, rather than men, had the advantage?"

He next becomes a skipper in sailing competitions that teach him fundamental lessons about teamwork and character under extreme conditions, as he pursues his ultimate dream: the single-handed round-the-world race. To raise the money to build the boat for this grueling competition, Goss sells his car, his television set, and finally his house. The race itself confronts Goss with all the challenges of high-speed sailing, from combating waves the height of six-story buildings to the unremitting and exhilarating trial of his skills. A third of the way through the race everything goes wrong. His sails are destroyed, his navigation equipment proves useless. Then he receives a Mayday that a competitor is sinking 160 miles away, upwind. Now Goss has to find a man on a life raft in a merciless wilderness of ocean. How he does it, and still completes the race, is the stuff truly inspiring tales are made of. ": Signed by Author

The Shell Collector Stories
Doerr, Anthony: Scribner; New Hope, Pennsylvania 2002 0743212746
Fifth Printing Hard Cover New in New Dust Jacket: 5.75 x 8.75 in.: 219 pages
005209: BRAND NEW Dustjacket now protected by a new Brodart Mylar Cover. No Remainder Marks. Scarce, Out Of Print, Book. "In this astonishingly assured, exquisitely crafted debut collection, Anthony Doerr takes readers from the African coast to the suburbs of Ohio, from sideshow pageantry to harsh wilderness survival, charting a vast and varied emotional landscape. Like the best storytellers, Doerr explores the human condition in all its manifestations: metamorphosis, grief, fractured relationships, and slowly mending hearts. Most dazzling is Doerr's gift for conjuring nature in both its beautiful abundance and crushing power. Some of his characters contend with tremendous hardship; some discover unique gifts; all are united by their ultimate deference to the mysteries of their respective landscapes. In "The Hunter's Wife," a hunter's profession is challenged when he learns that his wife can communicate with animal spirits. "For a Long Time This Was Griselda's Story" features two sisters in Idaho struggling to come to terms with the very different paths they have chosen, one traveling the globe with a sideshow and one remaining with her mother in their hometown. In "July 4th," a group of wealthy Americans enters a bet with a gang of British sportsmen: the first side to land the largest freshwater fish on each of the continents wins. The title story describes a blind marine biologist who isolates himself in a thatch-roofed kibanda in Kenya, only to be thrust into the spotlight when he accidentally discovers the cure for a fatal disease. Like all of Doerr's stories, it shimmers with beautiful language and transports readers to a perfectly realized, magical world of his own creation. The Shell Collector is an enchanting and imaginative debut by a young writer embarking on an important literary career."

Here is a sampling: From their Milling and Baking chapter: Finnish Cardamom Coffee Bread, Lussekatter Buns, Swedish Limpa Rye, German Oven Pancake * From The Communal Pot: Roasted Vegetable Strudel, Thresher's Beef Stew, Sarma (Stuffed Cabbage Rolls) , and Pasties (a delectable version of what is known as "the boardinghouse meal under a crust") * From North Woods and Prairies: Holiday Roast Wild Turkey, Grouse with Cranberry-Sage Butter, Woodcock with Wild Mushrooms * From Deep Lakes and Swift Streams: Baked Walleye with Asparagus and Fiddlehead Ferns, Pan-Fried Trout with Smoky Bacon and Hazelnuts, Spring Crappies with Morels * From Backyard Gardens and Sacred Paddies: Summer Tomato, Potato, and Eggplant Bake, Winter Gratin of Pumpkin and Leeks, Wild Rice Pilaf with Dried Cherries and Walnuts.

The Plan - Ahead Cookbook
Dyer, Ceil: The MacMillan Company; Toronto, Ontario 1969
Presumed First Edition Hard Cover Very Good with no Dust Jacket: 5.75 x 8.5 in.: 243 pages
001892: 300 Delectable Ways to Use Your Leftovers. To begin with, though making use of leftover food is almost as old as time - the first caveman soon learned to save yesterday's bone stew as sauce for tomorrow's rabbit - it can also be a method of cocking that is as new as tomorrow's computer and just as efficient. ... The recipes you will find here are all ones I have used many times. Some of them will undoubtedly be familiar to you, others both unusual and new. My versions do not take much effort, and I think they have a versatility you will enjoy. They can often be adapted to whatever ingredients are available at the moment, and I am sure you will do just this; however, the novice cook will find them precise and accurate.
