Decoding boys : new science behind the subtle art of raising sons / by Natterson, Cara Familian,1970-author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."What is my son doing behind his constantly closed door? What's with his curt responses, impulsiveness, newfound obsession with gaming, and ... that funky smell? As pediatrician and mother of two teenagers Cara Natterson explains, puberty starts in boys long before any visible signs appear, which causes confusion about their changing temperaments for boys and their parents alike. Often, they also grow quieter as they grow taller, which leads to less parent-child communication. But, as Natterson warns, we respect their increasing "need" for privacy and alone time at their peril. Explaining how modern culture mixes badly with male adolescent biology, she offers science, strategies, scripts, and tips for getting it right"--

Bury the hatchet / by Johnstone, William W.; Johnstone, J. A.;
There are two things a man can never escape: his past and his destiny. For Buck Trammel, that past includes a fatal mistake that ended his career as a Pinkerton--and a deadly shootout with the Bower gang in a Witchita saloon. Call it luck or call it fate, but the famous Deputy Wyatt Earp was there to give Buck some advice: Run for your life. Maybe it was Earp's warning that saved him from the gang's wrath. Maybe it was destiny that brought him to the town of Blackstone, Wyoming, where his biggest problem is a father-son brewing war. But Trammel's luck is about to run dry... The gang's ruthless boss, Old Man Bower, knows where Trammel lives. He's assembled a small army of gunslingers. He's hired a Pinkerton with a grudge against Trammel. And he's coming to town to bury the hatchet...

At the end of the world : a true story of murder in the Arctic / by Millman, Lawrence,author.;
"At the End of the World is the remarkable story of a series of murders that occurred in an extremely remote corner of the Arctic in 1941. Those murders show that senseless violence in the name of religion is not only a contemporary phenomenon, and that a people as seemingly peaceful as the Inuit can become unpeaceful at the drop of a hat or, in this instance, a meteor shower. At the same time, the book is a warning cry against the destruction of what's left of our culture's humanity, along the destruction of the natural world. Has technology deprived us of our eyes? the author asks. Has it deprived the world of birds, beasts, and flowers? Lawrence Millman's At the End of the World is a brilliant and original book by one of the boldest writers of our era"--
