Marfree acidfree SIGNED by author late fresher prtg in F unclipped DJ Gift qual; not marked-in clearance or discard. Mails from NYC usually within 12 hours full buyer protection -- our business is founded on your satisfaction. ; 0.8 x 0.8 x 8.2 inches; 148 pages; Thomas's multifaceted discussion of canine life was a 28-week PW bestseller. n From Library Jour: Novelist/ethologist Thomas may be well known to readers for her novels Reindeer Moon and The Animal Wife. This work however takes a much different tack in that it provides a readable account of how over a a span of years her family dogs were transformed into a family unit not unlike a wolf pack. Thomas is a firm believer that animals think and express emotion and is not ashamed to be "anthropomorphic" in her particular analysis of dog behavior. Her intention is to find out by observing her own animals what it is that dogs "want. " The dogs were free to make their own decisions; Thomas fed them sheltered them and provided medical care but otherwise didn't train them or direct their activities. The observations she makes are entertaining and amusing to anyone who has owned a dog. Her conclusion is that dogs want each other and people are merely substitutes for other canines. Although Thomas draws on her knowledge of philosophy and the theory of animal consciousness this book never bogs down in theory and remains very readable. A title worth considering for libraries where there is client interest. - Edell Marie Schaefer Brookfield P. L. Wis. Copyright 1993 Reed.; Signed by Author . Houghton Mifflin Company hardcover

The Tribe Of Tiger: Cats And Their Culture
Simon and Schuster New York: 1994. Hardcover with dustjacket. Good condition. The story of this graceful resourceful tribe begins with what cats are: meat-eaters first and foremost. But as Thomas shows within that stark equation abides an astonishing range of experience and expression. Contrary to popular belief cats - even tigers - are not solitary beings but are homebodies who "own" property much as we do and favor extended clans when food supplies permit. ISBN: 0671799657.

The History of the Island of Dominica containing a description of its situation extent climate mountains rivers natural productions etc etc.
London England: Frank Cass and Co Limited 1791. The History of the Island of Dominica containing a description of its situation extent climate mountainsrivers natural productions etcetc. Together with an account of the civil government trade laws customs and manners of the different inhabitants of that island. Its conquest by the French and restoration to the British Dominions. Declared a 'neutral' island by the contending powers of France Spain and Britain. Dominica had nevertheless been settled informally by the French when it was first conquered by Britain in 1759. Captured by the French during the war of American Independence it was restored to Britain in 1783. When Thomas Atwood published this first history of the island in 1791 therefore Dominica was a new and exposed colony where the French inhabitants still outnumbered the English. Atwood an intelligent man who had been Chief Judge both in Dominica and the Bahamas was greatly impressed by the island's strategic importance and commercial possibilities. He wrote his history to induce Britain to develop the colony and to attract more British immigrants and capital. His history therefore also comprises a complete description of the contemporary Dominica and the sections devoted to commerce are particularly important. Very much 'planter' historian Atwood's strictures on the character of the Negroes make extremely interesting reading especially when compared with his generous sentiments towards the few remaining amerindians. All in all this book still provides the most uniquely vivid if not unbiased picture of Dominica in the late 18th century. 285pp Catalogue of the Cass Library of West Indian Studies.

Corners of covers are lightly bumped. Spine is uncreased. Cover is protected in clear self-adhesive laminate. Edges of pages are lightly browned. Pages are lightly tanned. For thirteen years Maddie Palmer has sat by the window never leaving the house getting the news of the day from her younger brother Keith. For thirteen years she has buried her memories-of the dark fortress of the Town Library which casts its long shadow over Pridebridge and what happened there so long ago.But when Keith is forced to work in the secret cavern of the library Maddie must leave her familiar prison behind-or risk losing her brother for good.Thomas Bloor's first novel reminiscent of Louis Sachar's Holes and Madeleine L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time is at once very funny and strangely poignant as tantalizing and mysterious as Maddie herself.

Allen & Son Rural Life Photo Service was multi-generational and created an archive of over 77000 photographs. " The Allen photographs really tell the history of 20th Century agriculture in the Midwest. Thousands of their photos found their way into magazines books brochures on calendars . for more than 80 years. We found classic photos that have never been used. We endeavored to choose photos that represented changes and progress on the farm from 1912 to 1952 as well as the seasons of the year as they related to farm work - Introduction." This work was oversubscribed upon publication. Signed by Tom Budd the co-editor & co-publisher on the free endpaper. Concord Publishers hardcover
