Bobbie Kalman, author of the acclaimed Historic Communities and Early Settler Life series, explores the action and adventure that made the West famous. In the latter part of the 19th century, more than half a million pioneers headed west to carve out a future on an unknown frontier. Some were drawn by the offer of cheap land and the promise of religious freedom while others had high hopes of finding gold. Thrilling, authentic photos and full-color illustrations recreate what life was really like for these cowboys, adventurers, and immigrants in this rough-and-ready era in our history.
Settlers built their homes using whatever materials they found in nature -- logs, grass, sod, or adobe. Homes of the West describes in detail such early western-style homes as the soddy, the dugout, the log cabin, and adobe homes as well as Native American dwellings, tipis, longhouses, and pueblos.
Thirty-Six Billion Bargain: Strategy and Politics in U.S. Assistance to Israel by A. F. K. Organski, ISBN 0231071973
In this provocative and original book, A.F.K. Organski explodes the myth that U.S. support of Israel is driven by an overriding concern for Israel's existence, or by powerful Jewish / Israeli interest groups. After examining American attitudes toward Israel over time and comparing Israeli aid with assistance programs to other nations, including the major Arab states, Organski establishes that support has been determined by U.S. strategic interests in the region, particularly to repulse both Soviet influence and the expansion of radical Arab states. Considering the immerse strategic value to the United States of stability in the Middle East, Organski concludes this illuminating work by declaring that American aid to Israel has been 'cheap at the price'.

Naked Aviator
Naked Aviator intermingles some very strange flying stories with the harsh, tender, humorous, tragic and beautiful realities of living in an imperfect world. Naked Aviator is about life and where it takes you. The magic carpet that delivers the reader to all of the adventures just happens to be an aircraft, rather than an oriental rug. Naked Aviator elevates aviation in small aircraft to a higher level - a more meaningful place than flights to restaurants looking for the good and cheap burger. It speaks to what matters in our lives but does it without being preachy. Fun is the operative word. To those who read it, flying will become a passion, whether they become pilots or not. "It makes you want to fly," as one reader explained. "It makes you want to live more and fret less." It makes you want to read the chapter about 'The Dead Man's Shoes, Shotgun Sally and the Sawed off Nasty.

La Gran Evasion / Hate Volume 5
Bagge ( The Bradleys ) chronicles the misadventures, life experiences and repugnant habits of Buddy Bradley, oldest son of America's most dysfunctional suburban family. Buddy has managed to leave the clammy security of his family in New Jersey. Now he's living in Seattle, which Bagge portrays as the grunge capital of the U.S.; a place of cheap apartments, cheaper drugs and plenty of lowlife, with rocker deadbeats working in used bookstores and organizing bands. Buddy shares an apartment with his old friend Stinky and with George, a reclusive devotee of arcane religious, UFO and conspiracy theories, and probably the oddest black man ever to show up in a comic book. These stories satirize a special kind of low-budget lifestyle that, often as not, continues long past the twentysomething years into a cheerful, underachieving, bohemian middle age. Bagge's drawings have an abstract wackiness and comic flair all their own.
