The Pecan: A History of America's Native Nut
by McWilliams, James       
(Paperback - English - 9780292762183)
What would Thanksgiving be without pecan pie? New Orleans without pecan pralines? Southern cooks would have to hang up their aprons without America's native nut, whose popularity has spread far beyond the tree's natural home. But as familiar as the pecan is, most people don't know the fascinating story of how native pecan trees fed Americans for thousands of years until the nut was "improved" a little more than a century ago--and why that rapid domestication actually threatens the pecan's long-term future. In The Pecan, acclaimed writer and historian James McWilliams explores the history of America's most important commercial nut. He describes how essential the ..

Amiens: Dawn of Victory
by McWilliams, James    Steel, R. James   
(Paperback - English - 9781550023428)
It was the decisive battle of World War I. German commander Erich Ludendorff called it the black day of the German army. Many authors have stated that it was the beginning of the end of the great conflict. And yet, until now, no book has been published on the climactic battle at Amiens. Amiens was one of the first modern battles, and certainly the first attempted by the Allies. Employing the troops of five nations (including Canada) and utilizing secrecy, deception, and combined operations, the Allies won the first of a string of victories culminating in the Armistice one hundred days later. Amiens: Dawn of Victory is the first book to study the historic battl ..

(Paperback - English - 9781640090323)
A bold and bracing argument for the complete reimagining of the human diet by the critically acclaimed author of Just Food br The human practice of farming food has failed. There are 7,500 known varieties of domesticated apples; we regularly eat about five. Seventy-five percent of the world's food derives from five animals and twelve plants. Factory farmed meat is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions (about 14 percent, larger than transportation) and consumes 75 percent of the water in drought-prone regions such as the West. We are struck in a rut of limited choices, ad the vast majority of what we eat is detrimental to our health and the welfare of th ..

The Modern Savage: Our Unthinking Decision to Eat Animals
by McWilliams, James       
(Paperback - English - 9781250070227)
Just Food author James McWilliams's exploration of the compassionate carnivore movement and the paradox of humanity's relationship with animals. br In the last four decades, food reformers have revealed the ecological and ethical problems of eating animals raised in industrial settings, turning what was once the boutique concern of radical eco-freaks into a mainstream movement. Although animal products are often labeled cage free, free range, and humanely raised, can we trust these goods to be safe, sound, or ethical? In The Modern Savage , renowned writer, historian, and animal advocate James McWilliams pushes back against the questionable moral standards ..

Eating Promiscuously: Adventures in the Future of Food
by McWilliams, James       
(Hardcover - English - 9781619027350)
"The need to reexamine assumptions about how we feed ourselves becomes ever more important. McWilliams does not shy from imagining radical solutions to these issues . . .

American Pests: The Losing War on Insects from Colonial Times to DDT
by McWilliams, James       
(Hardcover - English - 9780231139427)
The world of insects is one we only dimly understand. Yet from using arsenic, cobalt, and quicksilver to kill household infiltrators to employing the sophisticated tools of the Orkin Man, Americans have fought to eradicate the "bugs" they have learned to hate. Inspired by the still-revolutionary theories of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring , James E. McWilliams argues for a more harmonious and rational approach to our relationship with insects, one that does not harm our environment and, consequently, ourselves along the way. Beginning with the early techniques of colonial farmers and ending with the modern use of chemical insecticides, McWilliams deftly shows how ..
