Paperback. Condición: Good. Angus MacLellan was regarded throughout his own lifetime as one of Scotland's finest traditional Gaelic storytellers.

Once the exclusive preserve of right-wing ideologues, the argument that rising population and immigration is damaging to the environment is increasingly defended in mainstream media and in the environmental movement. This is a clear, well-documented and popularly written refutation of populationist ideology, focusing in particular on the arguments on the environment. …

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Sen. Angus S. King Jr.--whether hosting a bipartisan barbecue as a U.S. Senator, traveling the country in his RV, riding the back roads of Maine on his Harley, or waxing poetically about his civil war hero Joshua Chamberlain--prides himself on having an eye and an ear for both the historic and the gloriously familiar. In recent years, he has regularly captured his work and daily adventures on his smartphone and shared those pictures on social media to provide a wonderful and rare insider's look at the workaday life of a senator, whether he is in D.C. or his home state. From the formality of the Capitol Rotunda to a glorious sunrise off the coast of Maine, A Senator's Eye: Celebrating Maine, Washington and the Joys of Scraping the Windshield is a fascinating collection of these informal photos, including King's personal insights and captions.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. The Death of Ram n Gonz lez has become a benchmark book since its publication in 1990. It has been taught in undergraduate and graduate courses in every social science discipline, sustainable and alternative agriculture, environmental studies, ecology, ethnic studies, public health, and Mexican, Latin American, and environmental history. The book has also been used at the University of California-Santa Cruz as a model of interdisciplinary work and at the University of Iowa as a model of fine journalism, and has inspired numerous other books, theses, films, and investigative journalism pieces. This revised edition of The Death of Ram n Gonz lez updates the science and politics of pesticides and agricultural development. In a new afterword, Angus Wright reconsiders the book's central ideas within the context of globalization, trade liberalization, and NAFTA, showing that in many ways what he called the modern agricultural dilemma should now be thought of as a twenty-first century dilemma that involves far more than agriculture. …

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. On 12 October 1492 Columbus discovered the New World.

This title documents both the Conquistadores themselves, and their formidable enemies in the New World - the Aztecs, Incas and Maya. McBride, Angus (ilustrador).…
