Alexandria, VA: Time-Life Books, 1996 From Library Journal These two titles show how much the American West continues to captivate the popular imagination. Put together by the editors of the Time-Life "American Story" series, Settling the West is composed of four vignettes, each representing a noteworthy aspect of the region's history and written by a professional historian. The four topics are the Gold Rush in Virginia City, Montana; Texas-Kansas cattle drives; the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad; and the Johnson County, Wyoming, War. With half the book devoted to cattle and ranching, there is a problem of balance. Still, this well-written book acknowledges the role of women and ethnic minorities. In The American West, the authors take a more process-oriented approach. Reviewing the westward movement in light of activities in Kentucky, Oregon, New Mexico, and South Dakota, they discuss topics ranging from migration and settlement to industrial development and recreation?an approach that allows for comparisons and contrasts between process and place. Surprisingly, California is barely discussed, and there is a single, woefully inadequate map. The title's strength is its engaging attention to everyday life. Both these works gloss over significant elements of the region's history, notably the role of the federal government and the military. Still, both copiously illustrated works will appeal to general readers. 193pp. Ships in a box, no bubble mailers!. FIRST EDITION, FIRST PRINTING. Pictorial Cover. Fine. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.

NY: Crown, 1988 "The title of this beautifully photographed book aptly depicts its contents. Water, that ubiquitous compound, is also quite a chemical and physical anomaly, as well as an essential ingredient for life. The book is a very simple and straightforward presentation of all of the wonders of water. Watson deals with not only the science behind waterits unique chemical and physical properties, but also delves into how our land and lives are shaped by the forces of water. The four sections, which relate water to the earth, to life, to science, and to history, are unique in their approach. The section on life and history should be of interest also to students of the social studies. " No marks.
