BOOK
Vinegar: The User Friendly Standard Text Reference and Guide to Appreciating, Making, and Enjoying Vinegar.
Lawrence J. Diggs
$11.29

About this product:

Vinegar is one of the most common, yet unique and wonderful, substances known to mankind.

Think for a moment. What other substance can you name that can be found on the shelves of kitchens all over the world and in small villages as well as large cities? what else can be used almost irrespective of cultural or religious belief, as food, medicine, beauty aid, cleaner, and preservative? And finally, what other substance with all its uses, complexities and varieties can be simply, safely, and economically made at home? I know of none except vinegar.

This book will attempt to cover the subject of vinegar well enough to live up to its title "Vinegar, the standard text and reference and guide, etc." To keept the book as exciting as vinegar itself, much of the scientific jargon has been distilled away. That which remains is quite necessary to truly understand vinegar. Many photos and diagrams have been included to make it even more enjoyable.

BOOK
The Bullwhacker: Adventures of a Frontier Freighter
William Francis Hooker
$20.00

About this product:
Rough as a cob, the bullwacker has never been romanticized, but his work was as essential as the cowboy's, and perhaps more hazardous. Young William Hooker, who came west from Wisconsin to Wyoming Territory in the early 1870's, would not be disappointed in his search for exhilarating open-air adventure. Soon he was driving a team of oxen hauling supplies for army posts and Indian reservations far from the railroad. He cracked a bullwhip and kept a rifle ready as he delivered sugar, bacon, blankets, and sacks of shelled corn to Fort Fetterman, Red Cloud Agency, and other destinations along the old Cheyenne, Medicine Bow, and Sidney trails.

And the thrilling stories he lived to tell! All true. About outlaws, rum runners, and collisions with Indians. About the feuding between bullwhackers and military officers. About exposure to every kind of varmint and to the fury of the elements. About the daily perils and pleasures of rumbling down some pretty primitive trails in the Old West.

This Bison Book reprints the 19245 original edition of The Bullwhacker: Adventures of a Frontier Freighter. In the Introduction, David Dary, the author of Entrepreneurs of the Old West (also a Bison Book). elaborates on William Hooker's life and times.

The first fully illustrated flora for any region of Texas or adjacent states. It is the most comprehensive guide to a large portion of the diverse plant life of Texas, and covers all the native and naturalized vascular plants known to occur in North Central Texas, an area about the size of Kentucky. The book presents information on the plant life of the region to meet the needs of students, teachers, wildflower enthusiasts, gardeners, ranchers, farmers, naturalists, conservationists, environmental consultants, researchers, and the general public. Of particular importance for non-botanists are the line drawing illustrations, which are provided for all species. In addition, there are 174 color photographs. The flora includes 2,223 species, or nearly half-known for the entire state of Texas. The inviting layout, vegetation maps, and extensive introductory materials on the vegetation, geology, soils, climate, and presettlement and early settlement conditions make the book useful to a wide audience. Also of general interest are a number of appendices on topics such as botanically related internet addresses, conservation organizations, native plants to use as ornamentals, phylogeny, and endemic species. The taxonomic treatments include family and generic synopsis keys and descriptions, derivations of scientific names, characters helpful for the field recognition of plant families, notes on toxic/poisonous and useful plants, and references to supporting literature. There is a literature cited section with nearly 3,000 references.

BOOK
Blessings from China: An Adoption Story
Roberta Diggs
$5.20

About this product:
This very short book is very well-meaning, but was not edited properly and is very poorly written. Further, if you are a devout Christian, you might enjoy it because the author frequently quotes Christian scripture.

BOOK

I really enjoyed reading Ms.Digg's book. I will definitely look forwarding to reading any future novels. My only complaint is the title,"A meeting in the ladies room". I hope her publisher picks a more worthy title for her next effort!

Her New Daddy
Tara Diggs
$3.99

About this product:

Sometimes Mothers and Daughters share more than secrets-

Excerpt:

There was a knock at her bedroom door.

"Come in," said Brenda.

The door opened, and her seventeen-year-old daughter stepped into the room, smiling. "Hi, Mom," said Kaylie. "I just came to see if you needed help getting dressed."

Brenda felt a wave of love for her pretty little daughter. Kaylie looked just like her, except of course that her figure was still developing - and she had Billy's big green eyes, not Brenda's dark brown slanted eyes.

Kaylie was half a child, half a woman, still only five feet, 2 inches tall, her body slim but curvy, less like a boy's every day, it seemed, her tiny breasts just the size of lemons but budding. Soon, her breasts would blossom, too. She wore her brown hair short and curly. She was a pretty little thing, and soon she'd be a beautiful young woman.

"Why, thank you, darling," said Brenda. "You can help me do my hair."

Brenda put on the neat blue suit she'd chosen to be married in, then sat down at her dresser. Kaylie picked up the brush and began brushing her mother's long gleaming brown hair.

"You look so pretty, Mom," she said.

"Thank you, Kaylie," said Brenda. "I just hope I'm doing the right thing. Most of all, I hope Hal will be a good father for you."

"Oh, he will be," Kaylie said earnestly. "I really like him a lot, Mom. He's a nice guy."

Brenda sighed with relief. At least things would be good for Kaylie, even if Hal proved to be a bad lover. Kaylie was more important to her than anything ...
