Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Ruth Jefferson is a labor and delivery nurse at a Connecticut hospital with more than twenty years' experience. During her shift, Ruth begins a routine checkup on a newborn, only to be told a few minutes later that she's been reassigned to another patient. The parents are white supremacists and don't want Ruth, who is African American, to touch their child. The hospital complies with their request, but the next day, the baby goes into cardiac distress while Ruth is alone in the nursery. Does she obey orders or does she intervene? Ruth hesitates before performing CPR and, as a result, is charged with a serious crime. Kennedy McQuarrie, a white public defender, takes her case but gives unexpected advice: Kennedy insists that mentioning race in the courtroom is not a winning strategy. Conflicted by Kennedy's counsel, Ruth tries to keep life as normal as possible for her family, especially her teenage son as the case becomes a media sensation. As the trial moves forward, Ruth and Kennedy must gain each other's trust, and come to see that what they've been taught their whole lives about others and themselves might be wrong. 470 pages.

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. 1st Edition. The books appears to be unread and has a little dust on the top edge. The jacket has a tiny hint of shelf wear only. On 5 February 1802, the 142-ton brig Venus cleared Sydney heads to begin a trading voyage through the islands of the Pacific. On board as captain was one of her owners, the surgeon, navigator, adventurer and now entrepreneur George Bass. Neither Bass nor the Venus completed the voyage. They simply vanished into the Pacific. The questions are many. Was the Venus wrecked on the coast of New Zealand? Did the ship sink in a storm? Or, as some reports suggest, did Bass reach South America only to be incarcerated by the Spanish? The brilliant and charismatic Bass embodied the Age of Enlightenment. He was a man of intense intellectual curiosity, of wide-ranging talents and contradictions. He had friends among Sydney's political radicals' but was also of the establishment. He was a skilled surgeon who preferred navigation to medicine, a naval officer who put his career on hold in an attempt to make a fortune and a man deeply in love but who abandoned his beloved Bess Bass' for the rewards of an adventurous voyage into commerce. In The Life of George Bass lie all the elements of personality and circumstance that shaped this short but remarkable life. Miriam Estensen brings to bear exhaustive research in archives and libraries around the world, and her characteristic subtlety and insight to present a richly detailed account of the life and mysterious disappearance of this gifted and very complicated man.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. A very good clean copy. Heavy volume for outside NZ. This magnificent volume celebrates the 50th anniversary of the first successful ascent of the world's highest mountain, and chronicles the history of Everest exploration from the early years of the twentieth century to the present. It is the first and only book to benefit from complete access to the Royal Geographic Society's astonishingly rich collection of photographs, documents and artefacts. Painstakingly selected from over 20,000 subjects, more than 400 photographs (many never before published) record the surveying, planning, reconnaissance expeditions and actual attempts that the Royal Geographical Society and the Alpine Club jointly launched, beginning in 1921 and culminating in Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay's historic climb on May 29, 1953. These unique and breathtaking images are prefaced by Sir Edmund Hillary and His Holiness the Dalai Lama, and are accompanied by chapters from renowned mountaineer Stephen Venables, Alpine Journal editor Ed Douglas, Judy and Tashi Tenzing (grandson of the famous Sherpa) and noted historian John Keay. The result is a work of lasting significance that captures the sense of discovery by those brave enough to challenge the world's greatest mountain.
