Ignoring every opportunity for literary gimmicks, schmaltzy emotional plays, and lazy writing, Stegner instead uses unvarnished prose and relies on the truth of emotionally honest, intellectually aware ...             The Catch: A Joe Gunther Novel (Joe Gunther Mysteries)11 reviews Archer Mayor St. Martin's Paperbacks, 2009 Another Archer Mayor hit!

They say in Wisconsin that the average hunter travels no farther into the woods than about 75 yards from their parked truck.

What a delight to see some hunters hunting, tracking...every sense alive, ...             All the Lovely Bad Ones3 reviews Mary Downing Hahn Sandpiper, 2009 Surprisingly complex; wonderful for a long read aloud I have two boys.

GOAT SONG is none of those. Mr. Kessler's descriptions of goats, their personalities, their care demands, and their contribution to the world's health are documented, concisely written, and readable. The literary level of what might seem a pedantic book is elevated by his numerous references to folk literature, world ...             Best Hikes With Dogs: New Hampshire & Vermont2 reviews Lisa Densmore Mountaineers Books, 2005 Dog-Friendly Hiking I had been looking forward to this book's publication since a New Hampshire bookseller told me this summer it was coming soon.
