Paperback. Condizione: Good. Literary Nonfiction. New Hampshire's Mount Washington is known as Home of the World's Worst Weather. A handful of hardy souls live on the mountain's Observatory year-round. Do they have to be just a bit unusual to seek out such a career? Perhaps. But the Observatory crew find much to enjoy in their icy home--even when it means dealing with hundred-mile-per-hour winds, wandering moose, and odd questions from visitors. They are also treated to spectacular sunsets, spine-tingling thunderstorms, and breathtaking toboggan runs. Former observer Eric Pinder describes with wry humor the joys and terrors of living in the clouds and explains Mount Washington's geology and weather. The book ends with a one-of-a kind cookbook of favorite Recipes from the Rockpile.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Poetry. Mature and provocative, this is a stunning first book, says poet Cleopatra Mathis. TALISMANS brims with ceremonial relics and attendant epiphanies-from Jesus's hand to Elvis's wart, from a child's marvel at an ice-covered jungle gym to a lover's anguish in a formal tea garden. In the title poem, Driskell narrates a flea-market crowd's delight at the Elvis memorabilia put up for sale. The circus atmosphere spurs the crowd on to imagine what might come of cloning The King's wart. Something simple happens, writes the poet, some brief spell of ball lightning rolling through our brains. sending us on crusades, giving us the idea for Velcro, / telling us to kill our wives. / and hope that, unlike steak, we move on to Glory. There's wry humor and wisdom in the poet's detour into the contradictions that underlie everything human and sacred.…
