Paperback. Zustand: Good. ". a fascinating look into the social aspects of the local landfill and the intricacies of waste disposal and recycling. Watson enthusiastically makes the case that 'recycling is a positive action that you can take to make a difference.' His engaging and heartfelt stories of people he's met through his work add depth and humanity to this portrait of a place that is often taken for granted but that is an absolute necessity and often a social community hub." -- Booklist Each day, every single person in the United States, all 324 million, discards about five pounds of waste. Be it a bottle that gets placed in a recycling bin or a piece of paper crumpled and tossed into the waste bin, every bit of the daily 1.6 billion pounds cast-off has a story. This book is full of those stories. It will wake you up and give you hope. As the author, Duncan Watson, says, "More people in America recycle than vote. Recycling is more popular than Democracy!"Watson has been running the City of Keene's solid waste program for 33 years. He has brought national attention to the program for solid waste disposal that Keene, NH, has built. He spins a good yarn, and the rich characters who populate the "dump" in Keene, New Hampshire, provide endless entertainment and a lot of laughs. He is also a yoga teacher, dog lover, and he visits Comic Cons all over the country, as he was a voice actor of Charlie Brown in three movies in his youth; "Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown", "You're a Good Sport, Charlie Brown", and "Race for Your Life, Charlie Brown.""By turns hilarious and heartwarming, distressing and hopeful, Everyone's Trash is about way more than recycling and trash. It's a poignant Xray of a small city's soul--and a testament to the power of connection, compassion, and community." -- Sy Montgomery, NYT Bestselling author, Soul of the Octopus, Of Time and Turtles"Duncan Watson turned his passion for recycling trash into creating a nationally recognized facility in southwestern New Hampshire. Now he tells his story, filled with unforgettable characters, self-deprecating humor, and a larger message for today. Like one of those unexpected discoveries many of us have picked up on a visit to our own recycling center, Everyone's Trash is a treasure." -- Dayton Duncan, author, The National Parks: America's Best Idea"From his first Recycling Center job in California to his Municipal Recycling Facility-MRF- 'Murph,' in New Hampshire, Duncan shares the humanity of his life well lived and the intertwined storylines that come alive in every chapter. His skill as a recycling and waste professional is only surpassed by his ability to share heartfelt stories of humanity with his readers. It is the rare author who can be this honest in his narration and every reader will be the richer for the experiences he recounts." -- Mike Durfor, Executive Director (Ret.), Northeast Resource Recovery Association.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. This is a spectacular, large format, 96-page hardcover book featuring 46 color panoramic images by one of New Hampshire's leading photographers. Most of the photographs span two pages and measure 21 x 7. According to the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests, Technically and artistically, these are among the most striking images ever made in the Granite State -- from the Seacoast to the North Country. They express perfectly the qualities that make our state special, from forested wilderness areas to historic buildings and stone walls.

Taylor writes in his foreword, Peter Randall brings to his New Hampshire photography a deep affection for and keen understanding of the state, its natural environment, and the idiosyncrasies of its people and culture. The photographs in this book reflect the diversity and complexity of the state's landscape, and especially the fascinating interplay of forests, fields, waters, and built features that make the New Hampshire countryside so appealing.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. This is an extensively illustrated memoir of John Silber, who entirely transformed Boston University as its president and was a controversial, yet intellectually formidable, candidate for governor of Massachusetts. Here, Rachel Devlin looks at her family and her father's trajectory from Texas to Boston and what life became like there; she examines his personality and temperament; and she describes his later years, the hardships he weathered and his continued accomplishments out of the public eye. As the title implies, each chapter is like a snapshot taken from a daughter's perspective, peering into the past she saw. Silber championed freedom of speech, believing all sides should be heard, especially on college campuses. He was also the father of seven children. The author often meets people who want to hear what he was like as a father and to tell her their own stories about him. Here is her clear-eyed vision of this authentic man of principle who had a drive to achieve great things.…
