Terriers of Scotland and Ireland
If you love dogs in general and terriers in particular then you will love this book. The book is the first of a two volume work about the Terriers of the British Isles. Many dog owners are interested in their breed, not from a formal stance, but from the perspective of its 'informal' history. For instance, the phenomenal popularity of the Collie and German Shepherd over the years can be traced to popularity of Lassie and The Adventures of Rin Tin Tin. Every child who watched these shows knew that, if they owned one, their dog would behave in an identical manner to their TV or film heroes. 'Terriers of Scotland and Ireland' is a 'terrier social history'. It is more concerned about their working and companion qualities and with the origins of the breed than in detailing the qualities of big prize-winners. The book is historically accurate and provides the professional dog owner with the data needed to develop an improved breeding program. Whether you are a professional or an amateur dog owner you will have endless hours of enjoyable reading.

The AEC Mustang and Marshal
The AEC Mustang was announced in 1956 to be built at the former Maudslay works near Alcester. This twin-steering six wheeler 'Chinese Six' model was rated for 18 tons gross weight, placing it in the medium-weight range. Sales were moderate but the Mustang achieved some popularity as general haulage flats, tankers, box vans and tippers. By 1962 the Mustang concept was being superseded by AEC's new Marshal 6 x 2 conventional, medium-weight six-wheeler. This offered a higher gross vehicle weight and a better payload than the Mustang. From 1964 Marshals enjoyed ten years of popularity as general haulage lorries, benefiting from the great increase in UK road transport following the Beeching decimation of the railways. As the 1970s progressed they were increasingly replaced by articulated lorries, though they enjoyed continued sales to tipper operators, for quarries, as aggregate hauliers, for millers and cement firms. Several large users, such as the London Brick company, were still buying Marshals until the end of their production in 1977.Graham Edge tells this story knowledgeably, and includes a large number of museum-quality archive photographs of Mustangs and Marshals at work in a wide variety of situations. The Appendices cover chassis designations and details as well as Mustang and Marshal engines.

The Art of Keeping Snakes
For author Philippe de Vosjoli, ?art is the actualization of a personal vision or message,” and de Vosjoli’s passion is snakes, which he believes are among the most beautiful animals on earth. Incorporating snakes into a naturalistic vivarium, the way lizards and amphibians usually are, adds a new element to snake keeping, elevating the hobby to a true art form. In The Art of Keeping Snakes, de Vosjoli pursues this concept and provides advice for snake keepers who wish to create beautiful displays for their snakes, putting the animals’ welfare and quality of life above all else and simultaneously enhancing their own enjoyment in observing their beautiful snakes in naturalistic environments. Beautifully photographed, inspiring, and informative, The Art of Keeping Snakes is divided into two parts, the first ?A New Way to Keep Snakes,” discusses design planning, enclosures and background possibilities, substrates, landscaping, plants, heating/lighting, quarantine and introducing the snakes to the vivarium. This part also includes chapters on feeding, handling, health care, and general maintenance and husbandry. The second part, ?Best Display Snakes,” presents over thirty different snakes, including photographs, physical descriptions, and tips for selection, handling, vivarium design tips, feeding, and breeding. The snakes in this part are divided into chapters, categorized by pythons, boas, water and garter snakes, hognose snakes, rat snakes, kingsnakes and milksnakes, and others. Resources and index included.

The Beatles
A celebration America’s ongoing love affair with the Beatles, four longhaired, oddly dressed chaps who appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show on Sunday evening, February 9, 1964 with half of America watching from their living rooms. Editor Ben Nussbaum traces the beginnings of this first internationally famous boy band, revealing how all four stars aligned to create the sonic sensation that changed the course of music history. Within just two months of the Fab Four’s debut on Mr. Sullivan’s variety hour, the band had secured all five top spots on BillBoard’s Hot 100, and before year’s end would sell an astonishing ten million records.Filled with dozens of color and black and white photographs, The Beatles details the rise and fall of the band, the stories behind the men, their relationships, the creation of the songs, the tours, the albums, and the unstoppable spread of Beatlemania around the globe. That the Beatles’ legacy continues to fascinate music lovers and pop culture gurus fifty years since their meteoric climb is rendered even more remarkable when one considers that the Beatles would disband just six short years after they sang their first ?yeah yeah yeah” on American television.In The Beatles, Nussbaum maps out the band’s rise to fame in 1964 (?The Toppermost of the Poppermost” and ?The Beginning”) as well as three summers of grueling tours ?sixty-six tours from 1964 to 1966 (?Twist & Shout”). The song-writing partnership between John Lennon and Paul McCartney, considered by many to be the most successful in history, is examined in ?Come Together,” revealing how the pair worked together and how their styles were vastly different yet complemented each other’s, for a time.The chapter ?We Can’t Work It Out” discusses the inevitable demise of the Fab Four and how the men grew apart musically and personally due to the high pressures of becoming instant celebrities.In ?Breaching the Iron Curtain,” the Soviet Union’s banning and bashing of the band only increased the youth of the U.S.S.R. to crave the Beatles more fervently and led to their further resentment of their government. Some two decades later, only upon the election of Beatles fan Mikhail Gorbachev did the first Beatles album get released in the U.S.S.R.Underscoring what Nussbaum refers to as ?the grandeur of the catalog,” Beatles experts Tim Riley and Patrick Foster choose their Top Twenty Beatles tunes, remarkably with only five songs in common.A special section will be welcome by all record collectors, the complete list of the twenty Beatles albums released in North America, including dates and song titles, from Introducing the Beatles, January 1964 to Let it Be, May 1970.The Beatles also takes a brief look at the long solo careers of the four artists after the dissolution of the band, including their musical highlights and lowlights. Other topics discussed in this vividly illustrated volume are the five top contenders for the ?Fifth Beatle”( plus ten runners-up, including Little Richard and Yoko Ono), the story of Capitol Records exec, Dave Dexter, who nearly stalled the Beatles’ entrance into America, and a section devoted to the band’s children (?Here Come the Sons”), discussing the music careers of Julian Lennon, Sean Lennon, Zak Starkey, James McCartney, and Dhani Harrison.

The Dachshund
The Dachshund is not one dog but many. No other breed offers such a variety of colours, size and coat texture. He may weight 10 pounds or more than 30. As far as colour, the Dachshund comes in solid and mixed shades of red, cream, black, chocolate, fawn and grey-blue. He can be dappled or double dappled, brindled, or piebald. Coats can be smooth, long-haired or wired. Yet, magically, beneath this delightful multiplicity lurks a paradox. The Dachshund is not many dogs but one. Whatever the coat texture, colour or size, there is one spirit, one heart, and one soul. It is the spirit of courage, the heart of loyalty, and the soul of nobility.
