In Santa Fe: A Walk Through Time, author Kingsley Hammett takes us on a tour of downtown historic Santa Fe, capturing the architecture in both photographs and essays. He tells the stories of the buildings that have come and gone; who lived, worked, and played in them; and the continual changes that make Santa Fe what it is today-a town of adobe architecture that blends with the high desert landscape, a destination spot for art lovers, culinary enthusiasts, and Epicureans alike. Relive the history, nostalgia, and old-time romance of one of America's favorite cities. Kingsley Hammett has been working as a journalist since 1979 and is publisher of DESIGNER/builder magazine. He holds a master's degree in both journalism and humanities/history. Kingsley is the author of three books on New Mexican furniture: Crafting New Mexican Furniture, Classic New Mexican Furniture, and Early New Mexican Furniture. He has lived in Santa Fe, with his wife Jerilou, for nearly twenty-five years.


Til We Meet Again: A Soldier's Love Letters from India

Not all World War II battles were fought in the skies, seas, or frontlines. Some of the hardest battles were personal, fought by servicemen while separated from the women they loved. When he was drafted into the U. S. Army, Bill Graham was just a skinny kid who?d never even traveled beyond the borders of Tennessee. By war's end, Bill was living in exotic India, and visiting the Taj Mahal, Burma, and China. Serving in army public relations, Bill's job was to help morale among servicemen stationed in the Far East. But keeping his own morale high was difficult while separated from his loving, young wife, Katherine. The couple wrote each other hundreds of letters during World War II full of love, longing, and hope for a reunited future. "Til We Meet Again" is more than Bill's view of history set against the backdrop of the essential China-Burma-India theater in the last years of World War II. "Til We Meet Again" is the story of every man and woman separated by time and war and distance. Til We Meet Again: A Soldier's Love Letters from India

A Dog Year: Twelve Months, Four Dogs, and Me by Jon Katz, ISBN 0375502971

"Change loves me, defines and stalks me like a laser-guided smart bomb. It comes at me in all forms, suddenly and with enormous impact, from making shifts in work to having and raising a kid to buying a cabin on a distant mountaintop. Sometimes, change comes on four legs."
In his popular and widely praised Running to the Mountain, Jon Katz wrote of the strength and support he found in the massive forms of his two yellow Labrador retrievers, Julius and Stanley. When the Labs were six and seven, a breeder who'd read his book contacted Katz to say she had a dog that was meant for him--a two-year-old border collie named Devon, well bred but high-strung and homeless. Katz already had a full canine complement, but instinct overruled reason, and soon thereafter he brought Devon home.
A Dog Year: Twelve Months, Four Dogs, and Me is the story of how Devon and Jon--and Julius and Stanley--came to terms with each other. It shows how a man discovered a lot about himself through one dog (and... A Dog Year: Twelve Months, Four Dogs, and Me by Jon Katz, ISBN 0375502971
