Have you ever seen a Multi-toed Snorkel Bill? How about a Southern Snake

Birders and just about anyone who likes birds will delight in this field guide parody.
Thirty-two fabulous new species are depicted in this volume, which features tongue-
in-cheek descriptions, observation hints, and range maps, as well as remarkable

network that winds through the North Carolina high country (ten peaks over
6,000 feet) of two wildernesses—Shining Rock and Middle Prong—and the
Blue Ridge Parkway corridor south of both wildernesses. The trail network also
includes a pocket of nonwilderness—Pisgah National Forest land between the
parkway and the Shining Rock Wilderness.
Following an informative introduction to the area, Homan provides detailed, in-
depth trail narratives. He has divided the guide into six chapters that group trails
according to regional cohesion and connectivity. Extensive nature notes
including species’ profiles, bloom dates for numerous wildflowers, and black and
white botanical drawings frequently follow the in-depth trail narratives.

This 1934 Pulitzer Prize winner tells the story of a pair
of young newlyweds in antebellum rural Georgia.
LAMB IN HIS BOSOM was the first novel by a Georgia author to win a Pulitzer
Prize. It was soon followed by Margaret Mitchell’s GONE WITH THE WIND. In
fact, Miller’s novel was largely responsible for the discovery of GONE WITH
THE WIND; after reading LAMB, Macmillan editor Harold S. Latham sought
out other southern novels and authors, and found Margaret Mitchell.
LAMB IN HIS BOSOM is a transcendent story centered on the life of a small
backwoods family in southern Georgia. Beginning two decades before the Civil
War and ending as the men return home from battle, Caroline Miller’s classic
follows the story of Cean Smith and her family as they struggle to build their
lives among the poor settlers of the Georgia backwoods—people who never
owned a slave nor planned to fight a war.
Richly authentic and lyrically descriptive, LAMB IN HIS BOSOM pays poignant
tribute to a woman’s life lived on the line between the nature outside her and the
nature within.

Caroline Miller was born in 1903. After her
marriage, she began traveling through rural
south Georgia, interviewing the people she met
and planning a novel; as she had not attended
college, her husband taught her about
literature. “He was my college,” she said.
In 1934, she won the Pulitzer Prize for the
Novel with LAMB IN HIS BOSOM, originally
published by Harper. Her second novel,
LEBANON, was published in 1944. Caroline
Miller died in 1992.
“Your book is undoubtedly the
greatest that ever came
out of the South about
Southern people and it is
my favorite book.”
—Margaret Mitchell, in a letter
to Caroline Miller
“It has a wonderful freshness
about it; not simply the
freshness of a new writer, but
the freshness of a new world. . .

Based on previously unpublished letters and extensive interviews, this intriguing biography reveals the
devoted marriage and fascinating partnership behindthe Pulitzer Prize–winning novel.
In exposing the private side of this twenty-four-year marriage, author Marianne
Walker confirms a long-suspected truth: GONE WITH THE WIND might have
never been written were it not for Margaret Mitchell’s husband, John Marsh. He
was Peggy’s best friend and constant champion, and he became her editor,
proofreader, researcher, business manager, and the inspiration and motivation
behind her writing.
Lively extracts from Mitchell’s and Marsh’s letters to family and friends describe
the stormy years of their courtship, their bohemian lifestyle as a young married
couple, the arduous but fulfilling years when Mitchell was writing her famous novel,
the thrill of its literary success, and the excitement of the making of the movie.
Drawing on years of meticulous research, Marianne Walker details the
intimate and moving love story between a husband and wife, and between a
writer and her editor.

Erskine Caldwell was the author of twenty-
five novels, including GOD'S LITTLE ACRE and
TOBACCO ROAD. His books have sold eighty
million copies and were translated into
forty-three languages. He died in 1987.
“His struggle for
understanding is graphically
described in his
mesmerizing
autobiography, written with
the artistry that marks his
works.”
—Publishers Weekly
In this forthright and unapologetic autobiography,
esteemed author Erskine Caldwell recounts his
personal and literary battles.
In 1932, Erskine Caldwell’s first novel, TOBACCO ROAD, was the center of
controversy. Some critics condemned the book; others considered it to be the
work of a genius. Today Caldwell’s fifty-plus books have sold more than 80
million copies worldwide, and his stature as a writer has been firmly
established.
In WITH ALL MY MIGHT, Caldwell tells about his work as a cotton picker,
stagehand, professional football player, and war correspondent for Life
magazine during World War II. He describes his four marriages (including his
much-publicized divorce from photographer Margaret Bourke-White). He
writes of the sacrifices he made and the rejections he suffered during the years
he was struggling to have his work published. In his own unique style, Erskine
Caldwell shares his perspective on a life as full and interesting as any he ever
dreamed up for his characters.
