Voices from the Garden
In nearly fifty personal stories, this book uncovers the motivations, concerns and life journeys of people who decided to become vegetarians. Some became vegetarians because of a life-changing relationship with a non-human animal, some because of a health crisis that led them to their new diet, others because of worries about the environmental consequences of meat consumption.

Hollywood in San Francisco
One of the country’s most picturesque cities and conveniently located just a few hours’ drive from Hollywood, San Francisco became the most frequently and extensively filmed American city beyond the production hubs of Los Angeles and New York in the three decades after World War II.

In this thirty-year history ...
