Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Forget lobster rolls and crab cakes. The dish East Coast residents really clamor for are clam cakes and fritters.

The Great Clam Cake and Fritter Guide digs into the origins of these cultish regional treats, profiles 50 of the best clam-cake/fritter-making restaurants and shacks and details the most significant artistic and event tributes to this food on Family Guy, in Don Bousquet cartoons and a Pulitzer Prize-winning short story, among others. Do-it-yourselfers will delight in the book's bike and car clam cake crawl itineraries, guides to cake-side beaches and 20-plus recipes.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Cavalry operations during the Gettysburg campaign have been well covered, but never like this. Most cavalry treatments of the campaign and battle have focused on strategy, operations, and tactics and zoomed in on particular episodes: the Battle of Brandy Station in June 1863 (the largest cavalry engagement on American soil), Jeb Stuart's controversial ride-for-glory that deprived Lee of important intelligence for days, Union cavalry general John Buford's role in the start of the battle on July 1, and the cavalry battle involving not only Stuart but also George Armstrong Custer east of Gettysburg on July 3. Daniel Murphy's book covers the grand sweep of cavalry in the Gettysburg campaign, from Lee's crossing of the Rappahannock in early June 1863, through the epic three-day clash in Pennsylvania, to the conclusion of Lee's retreat in July 1863. But more than that, in a book blending strategy and tactics and campaign narrative with deep research in primary sources and an equestrian's sense for what it's like to ride and manage horses, Daniel Murphy brings a horseman's eye to the story of the campaign: how individual cavalrymen experienced the campaign from the saddle and how horseswith special needs for care and maintenancewere in fact weapons that helped shape battles.In this new narrative of Civil War cavalry, author Daniel Murphy gets into the saddle and explores what it was like to be a cavalryman during the Gettysburg campaign. Horse-soldiering was a unique way of doing battle, and Murphy gives it more justice and nuanced description than any author has yet given it.

But it's also about what methods and flies may work best in each water type.
