Book Description
From the vast frozen wilderness of Alaska, Chad Carpenter brings Tundra. The National Cartoonists Society named Tundra as the Best Newspaper Panel Cartoon of the Year in 2007. These are award-winning cartoons from a naturally wonderful place. A tour guide might overlook some of the more quirky aspects of Alaska, but Carpenter sees it in a completely different light (even if that light only shows itself part of the year). Carpenter gives nature's residents, the furry and the not-so-furry, full attention. He also gives them voices that can bring a tear of laughter to the eye. Tundra is full of talking snowmen, inept hunters, obsessed fishermen, and inviting wildlife looking for their next meal. It's also packed with an abundance of hilarity. Tundra: Nature's Favorite Comic Strip features a "best of" collection with 560 cartoons from over 16 years of syndication.

Book Description
More than 51 million Americans plan to tailgate this year - and that's just during football season. Consider the legions of fans who tailgate at other professional games, college and high school sports events, or even at home, and you've got one popular American pastime. Debbie Moose's Fan Fare is the only book you'll need to throw a party for friends at home or tailgate at the big game, organized into five chapters: ''Kickoff'' (appetizers and snacks), ''Bowl Games'' (soups, beans, and chili), ''Hot Streak'' (entres), ''Pit Stops'' (salads, sides, breakfast, and brunch), and ''Overtime'' (desserts and drinks). Fan Fare features 100 classic and regional recipes - and the stories and traditions behind them - for every part of the game-day feast, from Jo Ann's Campfire Onion Blossoms (popular at NASCAR races, where tailgating often turns into a days-long camp out) to bratwurst prepared just the way Green Bay Packers fans like it to the Hibachi Seafood Mix essential at any University of Hawaii tailgate, where fans make the most of fresh, locally caught fish. Moose has also included all the important tips for an impromptu party at home or a carefully planned trip to the big game, with pointers on food transport and safety, outdoor cooking techniques, suggested menus, and a calendar of sporting events, so there's a great excuse for a tailgate party every month of the year.

Memoirs of a Yukon Priest
Author: Segundo Llorente, SJPublisher: Georgetown University Press
ISBN: 9781589018624
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
This is an engagingly personal account of the hardships, challenges, and rewards of a life lived wholly in the presence of God and at the service of the Alaskan people. In September 1935, Segundo Llorente, a wide-eyed twenty-eight-year-old Jesuit priest from Spain set foot in Alaska for the the first time. His memoirs are filled with all that he saw, endured, and enjoyed for forty years in Uncle Sam's "icebox," whether by dogsled in the 1930s or by plane and snowmobile in the 1970s. He prayed, worked, scolded, helped, and laughed with a practical wisdom that recalls the Ignatian spirituality in everyday life that also marks Father Walter Cisek's Russian journal, He Leadeth Me.
