Hardcover. Etat : Good. "Little Tree" as his grandparents call him is shown how to hunt and survive in the mountains, to respect nature in the Cherokee Way, taking only what is needed, leaving the rest for nature to run its course.Little Tree also learns the often callous ways of white businessmen and tax collectors, and how Granpa, in hilarious vignettes, scares them away from his illegal attempts to enter the cash economy. Granma teaches Little Tree the joys of reading and education. But when Little Tree is taken away by whites for schooling, we learn of the cruelty meted out to Indian children in an attempt to assimilate them and of Little Tree's perception of the Anglo world and how it differs from the Cherokee Way.A classic of its era, and an enduring book for all ages, The Education of Little Tree has now been redesigned for this twenty-fifth anniversary edition.

Hardcover. Etat : Good. 1. Dr. Steven D. Hsi, a family physician and father of two young sons, was diagnosed in 1995 with a rare coronary disease that caused his death five years later at the age of forty-four. Throughout his ordeals as a patient, including three open-heart surgeries, Dr. Hsis outlook on the teaching and practice of medicine changed. In 1997 he began a journal intended for publication after his death. Written with the assistance of newspaper columnist Jim Belshaw and completed posthumously by Hsis widow, Beth Corbin-Hsi, Dr. Hsis writings urge his colleagues to become healers, to look at their patients as human beings with spiritual as well as physical lives.Every patient should read it, if only to be made aware that they are not alone with their thoughts. Every spouse of a patient should read it. . . . Every medical student and physician should read it to learn that the biology of the disease is really just a small part of the illness.John Saiki, M.D., Medical Oncology, University of New MexicoDr. Steven Hsi asks his fellow doctors to be more than physicians. He asks them to be healers. He says that when he thinks of healers, he sees traditional medicine men, people who are integral parts of their communities. They are in touch physically and spiritually with the people they serve.Tony Hillerman.

Softcover. Etat : Good. The Anasazi Indians of the Southwest represent 2,500 years of cultural continuity, from the early Basket Makers of 700 B.C. to their modern descendants, the Pueblo Indians.

Softcover. Etat : Good. Reprint. This encyclopedic guide to the equipment of the trappers and fur traders who opened the Old West is a unique reference work that can be classified either as history or as archaeology. It describes and discusses hundreds of iron artifactsrifles, shotguns, hatchets, axes, knives, traps, and miscellaneous toolsused by the mountain men from the early 1800s to the mid 1840s.Thirty years research went into the writing of this book. In addition to examining the diaries and letters of the trappers themselves, and the business records of fur-trading companies, the author also tracked down the records and catalogs of the gunsmiths, ironmongers, and other manufacturers who supplied the early traders. He observed most of the surviving artifacts, identified their makers, and traced the evolution of the styles and designs of the weapons and tools, usually from European origins.Illustrated with over 400 drawings, the book begins with a useful background history of the western fur trade. Among the sections that will appeal to special groups of readers are chapters on firearms and blacksmithing and an appendix on the Historic Objects as Sources of History.

Hardcover. Etat : Good. First Edition. The two pre-eminent warriors of the Apache Wars between 1878 and 1886, Lieutenant Charles B. Gatewood of the Sixth United States Cavalry and Chiricahua leader Geronimo, respected one another in peace and feared one another in war. Within two years of his posting to Arizona in 1878, Gatewood became the armys premier "Apache man" as both a commander of Apache scouts and a reservation administrator, but his equitable treatment of Indians aroused the enmity of civilian and military detractors, and the army shunned him. In the late 1870s Geronimo, a medicine man, emerged as a brilliant Chiricahua leader and fiercely resisted his people's incarceration on inhospitable federal reservations. His fight for freedom, often bloody, in New Mexico, Arizona, and Mexico triggered the deployment of hundreds of United States and Mexican troops and Apache Scouts to hunt him and his people. In the end, the United States Army recalled Gatewood to Apache service, ordering him into the Sierra Madre of northern Mexico to locate Geronimo and negotiate his band's surrender. Showing the depravity and desperation of the Apache wars, Louis Kraft dramatically recreates Gatewood's final mission and poignantly recalls the United States government's betrayal of the Chiricahuas, Geronimo, and Gatewood at the campaign's end.

Softcover. Etat : Good. In 1939, Irenka Licht had just turned three when Germany invaded Poland. Her father, a respected local physician, tapped into a large network of friends who were willing to hide and protect his Jewish family. Irenka was sent to live separate from her family and spent six years hiding in cellars, attics, and a convent. She continually assumed false identities and was allowed to visit her family only occasionally-and under a heavy cloak of secrecy.In 1946, when Irenka entered the United States, her name was changed to "Theresa." This is her memoir of those years. She recognizes, and pays tribute to, those who made sacrifices and ignored the danger of helping her and her family during those terror-filled years, especially Marysia Niemiec, who went to extreme lengths to assist young Irenka."I was profoundly touched by this incredible story. Not only does it depict the horrors of the Holocaust and its impact on a child, but it is also a beautiful and hopeful reflection on the survival of the human spirit."--Rabbi Leon A. Morris, Director, Skirball Center for Adult Jewish Learning, Temple Emanu-El, New York"Any child, young or old, whom life has pushed about, and especially those who have had to endure the unendurable, will identify with this story."--Guy Carter, Theology Department, St Peter's College, New Jersey"Gripping. . . . Her portrait of her rescuer, a totally selfless woman, is unforgettable."--Eva Fogelman, author of Conscience and Courage: Rescuers of Jews During the Holocaust.

Hardcover. Etat : Good. First Edition. For over a century, dude ranchers have recognized that the wildness and splendor of the Rocky Mountain West were worth preserving. Dude ranchers were responsible for bringing many early travelers west, offering easterners a chance to learn about ranch life and find a friendly respite from urban bustle.<br /><br />In <i>Dude Ranching</i>, Lawrence Borne traces the history of dude ranching from the late nineteenth century to its boom in the 1920s, its troubles during the Great Depression and World War II, and the many changes since the war. Borne also gives an objective account of government policy toward national parks, noting the ironies of its damage to the dude ranching business.<br /><br />The story of dude ranching is uniquely American; it is about individualistic enterprise, about ranchers who, suffering from the declining price of cattle, found a way to maintain their ranches by taking in paying guests. It is also the story of recreational travel in the West, the growth of the tourist industry there, and ultimately the far-reaching effects of the automobile.<br /><br /><i>Dude Ranching</i> provides an interesting description of a group of individuals who helped open the west to tourists while maintaining its unspoiled beauty. This book is for anyone who has ever been attracted to the romance of cowboy life, and for anyone concerned about both the preservation and the continued accessibility of the Rocky Mountains. As Borne shows, the study of recreational travel habits can reveal a national character and, in this case, a general attitude toward the land.

Softcover. Etat : Good. Evolving from blues, R&B, boleros, funk, punk, and the British invasion, Chicano rock 'n' roll out of Southern California has enriched the music scene forever with the likes of Ritchie Valens, Thee Midniters, Cannibal and the Headhunters, El Chicano, The Brat, and Los Lobos, to name a few.Land of a Thousand Dances tells the story of this uniquely American sound beginning with Lalo Guerrero and Chico Sesma--musical forefathers in East LA--and the white DJs and black musicians who in the 1950s first recognized Mexican Americans as a powerful market. Next came the producers who traveled the garage circuit looking for new talent, and, of course, the kids who sang and composed their way to record labels. The constant through it all has been the Chicano fans who to this day hand down oldies like cherished heirlooms.Through interview and anecdote, Land of a Thousand Dances formally installs Chicanos in the history of rock 'n' roll.

Hardcover. Etat : Good. At the beginning of the third millennium, Las Vegas, Nevada has become a new model of consumer entertainment--the total pleasure market in which everything is for sale. Hancock's superb photographic eye chronicles the pop-culture fantasy playground that is Las Vegas, a physical location as much as an idea, a place that deliberately blurs politics, money, art, religion, entertainment, sex, and anything else architects can imagine and marketeers can sell. The range of Hancock's images is as diverse as the city itself: the town's neon-saturated nights; the glitzy, monumental hotel-palaces; the decaying buildings yielding to wrecking crews; the billboards that sell everything and convey unexpected truths; and a sampling of all that draws a worldwide audience seeking to be entertained.Accompanying Hancock's startling images and perceptive introductory essay is Gregory McNamee's thoughtful reconsideration of Las Vegas. His essay relates in words what Hancock narrates visually, exposing in the process a city caught between opulence, glamour, fantasy and poverty, decay, and despair. Together text and image in this book convey the essence of Las Vegas--the magic of illusion. This book is ultimately about material and spiritual alchemy--the transformation of fantasies into reality and the purification of consumption.Las Vegas is a visceral city, an exaggerated feast for the eye, and at the same time it is a community fractured by consumerism--in which buying and selling set all our choices. No book to date offers the intense emotional experience of Las Vegas found in American Byzantium.

Hardcover. Etat : Good. Now available only from the UNM Press, this long out-of-print and hard-to-find classic tells the story of the Texas invasion of New Mexico during the American Civil War. In early 1862, Confederate General Henry Hopkins Sibley marched thirty-four hundred coarse Texas farmboys, cowhands, and frontiersmen into New Mexico and up the Rio Grande Valley. Although seriously bloodied, they repulsed Union troops at the Battle of Valverde. As the poorly supplied Texans pushed northward, New Mexicans stripped the land bare of food, fodder, and livestock. East of Santa Fe at Glorieta, Union volunteers defeated Sibley's Confederates and burned their quartermaster trains, and the starving Texans retreated back down the Rio Grande to El Paso.For the UNM Press edition, Civil War historian Jerry Thompson has corrected the few factual errors in the original edition and has added a new map.
