Softcover. Zustand: Good. 0. Ever taste a cloud? Or take a bite out of the Grand Canyon? What if the West could taste the way it looks? Clearly, some of the great natural phenomena would have to be spectacular desserts. And so they are, for desserts of all foods are the most open to fantasy and fun. A little kitchen magic can turn the Rocky Mountains into snowcapped sundaes, or wild, rough, piggy javelinas into ginger cookies, or even cactus into Popsicles, pancakes, and tender rosy pies. The best food of a region expresses a sense of place in a way nothing else can. This is especially true of the American Southwest. These 50 recipes express climates and geography (pomegranates and citrus from the desert, pinon nuts and apples from the mountains) as well as history and culture (Tohono O'odham saguaro syrup, Spanish flan, cowboy cake, New Mexican biscochitos, and very chi-chi nouvelle Southwest chocolate mousse pie). 24 color photographs.

Softcover. Zustand: Good. The Navajo language-notoriously difficult to translate under the best circumstances-proved an ideal top-secret medium for confounding the Japanese in World War II and transmitting combat intelligence quickly and accurately. It was the only code that the Japanese were never able to crack. Using first-person accounts, correspondence and Marine Corps documents, this remarkable story tells how Navajo code talkers worked together to create a unique ""code-within-a-code,"" and serve their country in dangerous combat situations-a daring achievement that remained secret for twenty-four years.

Buch Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: Good. First Edition. A true story of violence, drugs, human smuggling, and dirty politicians. Ive fallen under the spell of a fabulously infatuating mistress, writes Lee Morgan II in this searing memoir. She is Arizonas beautiful, dangerous borderland, and this is the shocking true story of Morgans many years of combat there. A young Marine taught Morgan, aged 14, how to shoot a rifle. Then, he says, my pseudo big brother went on to infamously enter history books as the Texas Tower Sniper. Haunted by the Grim Reaper, todays Wild West is near anarchy. To know the Mexican people is to love them, writes Morgan, but he hates with righteous rage the crime and corruption hes witnessed on both sides of the border. Discover why Morgan has been called the Serpico of the desert. Climb down with him into a narco-tunnel built by slave labor to smuggle drugs. Consider the huge social and political questions raised by Morgans passionate exposé. Ive been personally shot, shrapneled, slashed, clubbed, burned, and nearly dragged to death, says the veteran lawman, who now lives with a Mexican bounty on his head. Its been a hell of a ride. And its a hell of a story.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. First Edition. An inspiring and witty guide to landscape design in dry climates. "Put your desert eyes on," is Scott Calhoun's first advice to gardeners facing arid Southwestern regions with extreme climate conditions. Then he shows how to translate the natural beauty of the region-mountains, canyons, sculptural succulents, and incandescent sky-into gorgeous yet water-thrifty landscape designs that complement existing architecture as well as the environment that surrounds it. Spectacular photographs help to tell the tale, showing flowering plants that are also tough as nails, vivid purple walls, and cacti with "punk rock hairdos," along with creative touches drawn from Native American and pop culture. Gardeners at all levels will find insight, inspiration, tips, and tricks to help them create and foster beauty in the desert.100 color photos; 20 b/w illustrations.
