Fick, Emma	Border Crossings: A Journey on the Trans-Siberian Railway	Non-fiction	Suggested By: Other. The Instagram-era ubiquity of travel photography can lend a curious sameness to strangers' shots of hotel breakfasts and tropical beaches. Watercolor sketches depicting artist Emma Fick's 2017 journey on the Trans-Siberian Railway offer a refreshing alternative, with paintings of bathroom fixtures, local officials and Russian cafeteria food that dodge the genre's cliched tropes altogether. Handwritten notes accompany the images, which are sometimes framed with a traveler's-eye view of train windows and passenger compartments. Others serve as whimsical compendiums: Fick lists Mongolia's five domesticated animals; document fellow passengers' fuzzy-slippered train wear; and ranks the quality of second-class dining cars by country. The effect is charming.

Forester, C. S.	Various - Horatio Hornblower Series	Fiction	Suggested By: Other. Patrick Stewart said that William Shatner gave him a stack of Horatio Hornblower novels and said that everything you need to know about playing Captain Kirk is in here. The series looks like a hot mess - I'm not sure at all what the order of the books is. The first three novels written, The Happy Return, A Ship of the Line, and Flying Colours were collected as Captain Horatio Hornblower (1939) by Little Brown in the US. Both a single-volume edition and a three-volume edition (in a slip case) were published. Mr. Midshipman Hornblower, Lieutenant Hornblower, and Hornblower and the Atropos were compiled in one book, variously titled Hornblower's Early Years, Horatio Hornblower Goes to Sea, or The Young Hornblower. Hornblower and the Atropos was replaced by Hornblower and the Hotspur in later UK editions of The Young Hornblower. Hornblower and the Atropos, The Happy Return, and A Ship of the Line were compiled into one omnibus edition, called Captain Hornblower. Flying Colours, The Commodore, Lord Hornblower, and Hornblower in the West Indies were presented as a third omnibus edition called Admiral Hornblower to fill out the series. Commodore Hornblower, Lord Hornblower, and Hornblower in the West Indies were also compiled into one book, called The Indomitable Hornblower.

Gaines, Ernest J.	The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman	Fiction	Suggested By: Other. Mr. Gaines chronicled the struggles of black people in the South before the civil rights era. "This is a novel in the guise of the tape-recorded recollections of a black woman who has lived 110 years, who has been both a slave and a witness to the black militancy of the 1960's. In this woman Ernest Gaines has created a legendary figure, a woman equipped to stand beside William Faulkner's Dilsey in The Sound And The Fury." Miss Jane Pittman, like Dilsey, has 'endured,' has seen almost everything and foretold the rest. Gaines' novel brings to mind other great works The Odyssey for the way his heroine's travels manage to summarize the American history of her race, and Huckleberry Finn for the clarity of her voice, for her rare capacity to sort through the mess of years and things to find the one true story in it all." -- Geoffrey Wolff, Newsweek.

No one explains to you that you have three different electrical systems, that your fuses are in 5 different locations or why you have circuit breakers AND fuses. Dealers don't take the time to explain how RV systems work. They focus on glitz and features and many have never spent a night in an RV without full hookups. This book explains the major systems in RVs, how they work, how to use them and what tools to pack.Many RVs leave the dealer lot with components not working, not noticed in the quick sales walk-through. Some you may find that first night. Some not noticed for a few months when you are far down the road. We also cover a wide range of manufacturing problems common to current RVs and how we fixed them.

Where once our business leaders looked to the needs and interests of a variety of stakeholders--employees, community members, the business itself--now they're myopically focused on maximizing their shareholders' quarterly returns.

Gerrold, David	The Martian Child	Fiction	A Novel About A Single Father Adopting A Son. The biggest question is why the story is presented in fictional form. As Gerrold explicitly states, it is based on reality, and no point seems to be served in manufacturing details, except, perhaps, that it allows Gerrold to focus on the thesis that lavish applications of love, patience and understanding (along with a bit of medication) can overcome any child's difficulties and create a marvelous father-son relationship and a successful adoptive process.
