› Find signed collectible books: 'Anne of Green Gables'
When Marilla Cuthbert's brother, Matthew, returns home to Green Gables with a chatty redheaded orphan girl, Marilla exclaims, "But we asked for a boy. We have no use for a girl." It's not long, though, before the Cuthberts can't imagine how they could ever do without young Anne of Green Gables--but not for the original reasons they sought an orphan. Somewhere between the time Anne "confesses" to losing Marilla's amethyst pin (which she never took) in hopes of being allowed to go to a picnic, and when Anne accidentally dyes her hated carrot-red hair green, Marilla says to Matthew, "One thing's for certain, no house that Anne's in will ever be dull." And no book that she's in will be, either. This adapted version of the classic, Anne of Green Gables, introduces younger readers to the irrepressible heroine of L.M. Montgomery's many stories. Adapter M.C. Helldorfer includes only a few of Anne's mirthful and poignant adventures, yet manages to capture the freshness of one of children's literature's spunkiest, most beloved characters. There's just enough to make beginning readers want more--luckily, there's a lot more in the originals! Illustrator Ellen Beier creates vibrant pictures to portray the beauty of the land around Green Gables and the spirited nature of Anne herself. (Ages 5 to 8) --Emilie Coulter [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Anne's House of Dreams'
Anne's own true love, Gilbert Blythe, is finally a doctor, and in the sunshine of the old orchard, among their dearest friends, they are about to speak their vows. Soon the happy couple will be bound for a new life together and their own dream house, on the misty purple shores of Four Winds Harbor.
A new life means fresh problems to solve, fresh surprises. Anne and Gilbert will make new friends and meet their neighbors: Captain Jim, the lighthouse attendant, with his sad stories of the sea; Miss Cornelia Bryant, the lady who speaks from the heart -- and speaks her mind; and the tragically beautiful Leslie Moore, into whose dark life Anne shines a brilliant light.

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Cambridge Factfinder'
It's a pretty tall order to call any book "one of the greatest reference books ever published" but the Independent on Sunday says just that of The Cambridge Factfinder. The publishers, Cambridge University Press, similarly claim that the fourth edition of the book is "the most comprehensive, authoritative and up-to-date general factbook available". Certainly The Cambridge Factfinder is one of the best books of its kind. It is concise, easy-to-use, well laid out and affordable; moreover it covers a formidable range of subjects, from star constellations to the female winner of the 2000 Biathlon World Championship.
The 14 sections are clearly marked, and the Areas of Knowledge contents list, full Table of Contents and approximately 130 pages of index make sure that the reader is more than able to navigate his/her way around the book. Possibly one of the most useful sections is Human Geography, which not only features a political map and a map showing population density, but also lists largest nations by area and by population, and the largest cities by population. The alphabetically arranged country summaries include a small but clear black and white map, and feature essential information such as currency, capital, language/s, and head of state and political status, among other things.
If the Factfinder suffers from anything it is lack of colour, but the illustrations and maps are clearly and generously spread throughout the 900-plus pages, and presumably this omission relates more to the book's reasonable price than to economy on the publisher's part. This is a highly recommended buy. --Aruna Vasudevan [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Women Writing Culture'
Conceived partly in homage to the diversity of This Bridge Called Our Backs and partly in umbrage at the mostly male musings on anthropology in Writing Culture, this rewarding collection redefines anthropology through feminist and multicultural eyes. At its heart is the "poetics and politics" of ethnography, an uneasy marriage of art and science that attempts to distill the essence of another person's culture.
Editor Ruth Behar, who wrote in depth about her comadre Esmeralda (and more fleetingly of her own father's rage) in Translated Woman, contributes a wrenching piece on the betrayal implicit in marking down another person's life. "Foolish, foolish is the anthropologist who mixes up the field with her life," she mourns. Other essays consider such issues as how gender and racism play out in anthropology, how women in the field undermine themselves, and what women bring to the odd dance between narrator and observer. In a light essay that contrasts cultures, Lila Abu-Lighod, who researched the lives of Bedouin women, speaks of their pity for her childless state. While they assume she is "searching for children" unsuccessfully, she assumes their infertility remedies are wondrous fodder for field notes. --Francesca Coltrera [via]
