Crow Party
Crow Party is a whimsical look at the behavior of crows, written in a tone of lighthearted annoyance with the many antics that we encounter with our mischievous feathered friends. The story shares snippets of advice in dealing with crows, from a lightly humorous perspective geared at teaching children observance of wildlife and respect for the creatures that have learned to share urban areas with us. From their "CAW, CAW, CAW" communications calling friends, family and enemies, to their artful ways of stealing food from farms, backyards and trash cans, it is a story of crows and their party-prone behavior, teaching about their interaction, communication and intelligence. Artist Nick McCarthy brilliantly brings crows in the book to life, capturing their antics with his dynamic pointillism technique. Written by a Planner and sustainability specialist, the book teaches children, in an enjoyable way, to look at nature more thoughtfully. Graphic design for the book layout professionally done by Jeanette Cappiello.

Madison's Managers
Combining insights from traditional thought and practice and from contemporary political analysis, Madison's Managers presents a constitutional theory of public administration in the United States. Anthony Michael Bertelli and Laurence E. Lynn Jr. contend that managerial responsibility in American government depends on official respect for the separation of powers and a commitment to judgment, balance, rationality, and accountability in managerial practice. The authors argue that public management—administration by unelected officials of public agencies and activities based on authority delegated to them by policymakers—derives from the principles of American constitutionalism, articulat...
The Dark Lantern
The Dark Lantern (1951) was the first of Henry Williamson's fifteen-volume A Chronicle of Ancient Sunlightspanning the years from the late Victorian period to the Second World War. In it we meet Richard Maddison, a countryman working in London as a City clerk, struggling to make do on a few shillings a week. He falls for Hetty Turner, youngest daughter of a prosperous merchant, but her father rates Richard an unsuitable suitor. 'There is magic in Henry Williamson's novel . . . which raises it right out of the family saga class. The magic is of the steam train age of South London which is so lovingly described.' John Betjeman , Daily Telegraph 'Williamson's style is romantic, though rarely sentimental, and his sensuous response to nature is fresh and surprising.' Anthony Burgess, Ninety-Nine Novels: The Best in English since 1939
