Mark Twains Notebooks
Journals, Letters, Observations,
Wit, Wisdom, and Doodles
Edited by Carlo De Vito
This original and insightful collection combines Mark
Twains journal writings with his rarely seen sketches
and doodles to create a fascinating, and often
hilarious, visual record of the letters, speeches, and
observations of the father of American literature.
A
national treasure and a cultural and literary icon, Mark
Twain was called the father of American literature by
William Faulkner. His beloved works include The Adventures
of Huckleberry Finn, Tom Sawyer, and 26 other books. His
inimitable prose seamlessly weaves together humor, insight,
vivid details, and memorable characters. Along with these
published works, Twain, who was also a journalist, produced
approximately 40 to 50 pocket notebooks and wrote countless
letters, essays, travelogues, and lectures in his lifetime. Mark
Twains Notebooks is the rst collection to gather these
writings and combine them with dozens of Twains rarely seen
sketches, doodles, and diagrams, as well as facsimiles of his
original journal pages, letters, and essays. The result is page
after beautifully designed page of some of the best little-
known writings of Mark Twain. Organized by topics such as
science, literature, health, family life, and food, the collection
also includes intimate letters that describe the home he built
in Hartford, Connecticut; his travels across Europe, the Middle
East, and the United States; and his agony over the death of his
favorite daughter.
The writing and art is selected by book and publishing veteran
Carlo De Vito, who provides fascinating commentary and
insights into the material throughout the book.
Carlo De Vito the author of more than 15 books, including A Mark Twain
Christmas and biographies of D. Wayne Lukas, Wellington Mara, Yogi
Berra, and Phil Rizzuto. He was the publisher at Running Press Book
Publishers and VP, Editorial Director at Sterling Epicure. He lives with his
wife and two sons on their farm, the Hudson-Chatham Winery,
in Ghent, New York.

Red
A Natural History of the Redhead
Jacky Colliss Harvey
The brilliantly told, captivating history of red hair
throughout the ages and across multiple disciplines,
including science, religion, politics, feminism and
sexuality, literature, and art
T
he mere mention of red hair calls to mind vivid pictures.
Stereotypes of redheaded women range from the fun-
loving scatterbrain, like Lucille Ball, to the ery-tempered vixen
or the penitent prostitute (Mary Magdalene, for example, is
almost always depicted as a redhead). Red-haired men are often
associated with either the savage barbarian or the redheaded
clown. But why is this so?
Red: A Natural History of the Redhead is the rst book to
explore the history of red hair and red-headedness throughout
the world.
With an obsessive fascination that is as contagious as it is
compelling, author Jacky Colliss Harvey begins her quest in
prehistory and traces the redhead gene as it made its way out
of Africa with the early human diaspora, only to emerge under
Northern skies. She goes on to explore red hair in the ancient
world (from the Tarim mummies in China to the Islamic kingdom
of the Khazars); the prejudice manifested against red hair across
medieval Europe; red hair during the Renaissance as both an
indicator of Jewishness during the Inquisition and the height of
fashion in Protestant England, where it was made famous by the
Henry VIII and Elizabeth I; the modern age of art, and literature,
and the rst positive symbols of red hair in childrens characters;
modern medicine and science and the genetic and chemical
decoding of red hair; and nally, red hair in contemporary culture,
from advertising and exploitation to gingerism and the new
movement against bullying.
More than a book for redheads, Red is the exploration of
evolution and gene mutation, as well as a compelling social and
cultural study of how prejudice and misconceptions of other
evolve across centuries and continents and are handed down
through generations and from one culture to another.
Jacky Colliss Harvey is a writer and editor. She studied English at
Cambridge University and art history at the Courtauld Institute. She
has worked in museum publishing for the past 20 years and is a
commentator and reviewer who speaks in both the U.K. and abroad
on the arts and their relation to popular culture. Her red hair has also
found her an alternative career as a life model and a lm extra playing
everything from a society lady in Atonement to a Parisian whore in
Bel-Ami. She lives in London.

delicious recipes for salads and dressings.
G
uided by the seasons, award-winning chef Matt Wilkinson
has always designed his recipes with vegetables as the
foundation of the plate. In his latest cookbook, Matt takes this
a step further by showing us how versatile salads can be in
both form and avor. With the gardens yield as his inspiration,
he pairs produce with grains, beans, cheeses, sh, and meat
to create enticing, adaptable dishes. Youll nd a recipe to

and Iceberg, Mint and Radish Salad with Avocado Dressing.
There is also heartier fare, such as Roasted Sweet Potatoes,
Hot Red Turkish Peppers & Labneh (a Turkish yogurt),
Brown Rice & Feta with Hot n Sour Dressing, and Smashed
Figs, Blue Cheese, and Walnut Salad with White Balsamic.
Beautiful photography combined with vintage illustrations
make for a book that is both timely and timeless.
Matt Wilkinson is passionate about food in season, farmers markets,
and local producers. As the former head chef at the award-winning Circa
the Prince, Wilkinson helped usher in an era of organics and garden-
to-kitchen rustic ne dining. He now co-owns and runs Pope Joan and
the neighboring market Hams and Bacon in Melbourne, both of which
have cult followings for their fresh, seasonal food. He is also the co-
owner and chef of a franchise of 11 Spudbar slow-food, fast-food shops

A History Of Baseball
In 100 Objects

From Babe Ruth's Bat to the Reggie Candy Bar
Josh Leventhal
The only book of its kind to tell the history of
baseball, from its inception to the present day,
through 100 objects that represent the major
milestones, events, and larger-than-life personalities
that make up the game
T
he History of Baseball in 100 Objects is a visual and
historical record of the game as told through essential
documents, letters, photographs, equipment, memorabilia, food
and drink, merchandise and media items, and relics of popular
culture, each of which represents the history and evolution of
the game.
Among these objects are the original ordinance banning
baseball in Pittseld, Massachusetts, in 1791 (the earliest known
reference to the game in America); the By-laws and Rules of
the Knickerbocker Base Ball Club, 1845 (the rst codied rules of
the game); Fred Thayers catchers mask from the 1870s (the rst
use of this equipment in the game); a scorecard from the 1903

American Homes
The Landmark Illustrated
Encyclopedia of
Domestic Architecture
Lester Walker
American Homes is the classic work of American
house architecture. From the Dutch colonial, to the
New England Salt Box, to the 1950s prefab, this
unrivaled reference and useful guide to 103 building
styles pays homage to our countrys housing heritage.
A
merican Homes opens the window onto the rich landscape
of all the places we call home. Award-winning architect
Lester Walker examines hundreds of styles of homesmore
than any other survey of American domestic architectureand
helps us understand the history of each style, why it developed
as it did, and the practical and historical reasons behind
its shape, size, material, ornament, and plan. Hundreds of
sequenced drawings illustrate the evolution of our most beloved
housing styles, like the colonial English Cottage, which grows
before our eyes from a simple square of posts and beams to a
fully constructed home with hand-split cedar clapboards and an
intricately thatched roof. Theres also the Italianate, whose roof
displays its intricate carved brackets and is topped with a cupola
that serves to lter light to the interior of the home. Annotated
oor plans offer insight into the structure of these homes, and
with it, a good measure of inspiration. No wrought-iron railing,
white stucco wall, or gingerbread gable goes neglected. Every
idiosyncratic detail and decoration of each of these uniquely
American designs is delicately drawn.
American Homes is the perfect reference for enthusiasts of
architecture, history, and American studies. It is also the ideal
inspiration for anyone who lives in or dreams of living in a classic
American home.
Lester Walker is an award-winning architect and author of numerous
books related to houses and architecture. He was professor of
architecture at City College of New York and has lectured and presented
seminars at Harvard University, MIT, UCLA, and the Rhode Island
School of Design. His work has appeared in such magazines as House
Beautiful, Time, House and Garden, and Progressive Architecture.
He lives in Woodstock, New York, where his architectural rm is based.

Paris In 3D
In The Belle poque
(18801914)
A Book Plus a Stereoscopic Viewer and 35 3D Photos
Bruno Fuligni
This handsome, unique packagecontaining a
stereoscopic viewer, 35 3D photographic cards, and
a photo-packed paperback bookoffers a rare view
of Paris, the worlds most beautiful city, during an era
when art, literature, poetry, and music blossomed
and reigned.
P
aris during the Belle poque (18801914) was a time when
peace and prosperity allowed for towering innovation in art,
fashion, architecture, and gastronomy. The city at this time was
the epicenter of art and music. Faur, Saint Sans, Debussy,
and Ravel were composing; Rodin was working on The Thinker;
Renoir, Monet, Czanne, Pissarro, and Degas painted scenes
depicting everyday life; and Pablo Picasso embarked on his
Blue Period. As Art Nouveau came into fashion, new buildings
followed suit. Opra Garnier, Castel Beranger, Moulin Rouge,
and the Paris Metro entrances were all built during this time.
Galeries Lafayette unveiled its gilded department store, which
sold couture to the aspiring middle class.
This burgeoning creativity and prosperity, as well as the city
and the inhabitants who embraced it, are all captured here,
with stunning clarity and realism. Paris in 3Ds innovative and
inimitable package includes a sturdy metal stereoscopic viewer,
35 rarely seen stereoscopic photographs of the city at the turn
of the century, and an accompanying 128-page paperback,
which provides a brief history of the stereograph craze and an
overview of the citys evolution during that time.
Bruno Fuligni is a French writer and historian. He has written more
than 20 books.

species and offer tips and advice on sewing up the animals.
Best of all, these knitted animals are much easier to look after

cemetery to reach the gravesite. The book also
provides a handy index of grave locations organized
by state, province, and country to make planning a
grave-hopping road trip easy and efcient.
