The Mundt Families, 1705-1988
Christian Friedrich Wilhelm Mundt (1833-1876) was a son of Johann Mundt and Maria Dorothea Wilcke, born in Bagemühl, Prenzlau, Prussia. He married Maria Christina Friedericke Duckwitz in 1855, and they immigrated about 1860 to New York. There a girl, their third child, was born and buried. They then moved to settle in Bethlehem, Effingham County, Illinois. Descendants and relatives lived in New York, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Colorado, Texas, Hawaii and elsewhere. Includes ancestry and genealogical data in Germany to about 1705.
Cooking with Fernet Branca
“A very funny sendup of Italian-cooking-holiday-romance novels” (Publishers Weekly). Gerald Samper, an effete English snob, has his own private hilltop in Tuscany where he whiles away his time working as a ghostwriter for celebrities and inventing wholly original culinary concoctions––including ice cream made with garlic and the bitter, herb-based liqueur known as Fernet Branca. But Gerald’s idyll is about to be shattered by the arrival of Marta, on the run from a crime-riddled former Soviet republic, as a series of misunderstandings brings this odd couple into ever closer and more disastrous proximity . . . “Provokes the sort of indecorous involuntary laughter that has more in common with sneezing than chuckling. Imagine a British John Waters crossed with David Sedaris.” —The New York Times

A Field Guide to the Birds of Hawaii and the Tropical Pacific
This is the first field guide to the identification of the birds of the islands of the tropical Pacific, including the Hawaiian Islands, Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, southeastern Polynesia, and Micronesia. It is intended both as a reference for the expert and as an introduction to birding in the region for the novice. Small enough to be carried afield, it contains much previously unpublished information about behavior, vocalizations, ecology, and distribution. The forty-five color plates depict all plumages of all bird species that breed in the islands, as well as of those that regularly visit them and the surrounding oceans, and of most species believed to be extinct on the islands. Black-and-white figures show many of the rarer visitors. Introductory sections discuss the tropical Pacific as an environment for birds, problems of birding on islands, and bird conservation. Appendixes include maps of the island groups and a thorough bibliography.
