Welcome to New Auburn, Wisconsin, where the local vigilante is a farmer's wife armed with a pistol and a Bible, the most senior member of the volunteer fire department is a cross-eyed butcher with one kidney and two ex-wives (both of whom work at the only gas station in town), and the back roads are haunted by the ghosts of children and farmers. Against a backdrop of fires and tangled wrecks, bar fights and smelt feeds, "Population: 485" is a comic and sometimes heartbreaking true tale leavened with quieter meditations on an overlooked America.

In this delightful memoir, Jean Renoir, the director of such masterpieces of the cinema as "Grand Illusion" and "The Rules of the Game," tells the life story of his father, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, the great Impressionist painter. Recounting Pierre-Auguste's extraordinary career, beginning as a painter of fans and porcelain, recording the rules of thumb by which he worked, and capturing his unpretentious and wonderfully engaging talk and personality, Jean Renoir's book is both a wonderful double portrait of father and son and, in the words of the distinguished art historian John Golding, it "remains the best account of Renoir, and, furthermore, among the most beautiful and moving biographies we have." Includes 12 pages of color plates and 18 pages of black and white images.

Renoir, My Father

On April 17, 2001, at the Citadel in Quebec City, Paul Cellucci presented his credentials as the 20th United States Ambassador to Canada to then-Governor General Adrienne Clarkson. It would prove to be a historical period that came to define a colder realignment in Canada-U.S. relations. Canada and the United States would find themselves in the months and years after 9/11 often confronting each other over efforts to combat terrorism, calls for increased military budgets and support for U.S. missile defense systems, and continued rancor over the long simmering soft-wood lumber dispute. At the center of all the controversies was Paul Cellucci. In this extraordinary and broad-ranging book, Paul Cellucci deals with all the issues that unite and divide Canadians and Americans in his outspoken and candid style that became his signature as ambassador.

By the acclaimed journalist and bestselling author of "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, " this day-by-day, eyewitness account of the momentous events leading up to World War II in Europe is now available in a new paperback edition.CBS radio broadcaster William L. Shirer was virtually unknown in 1940 when he decided there might be a book in the diary he had kept in Europe during the 1930s--specifically those sections dealing with the collapse of the European democracies and the rise of Nazi Germany. "Berlin Diary" first appeared in 1941, and the timing was perfect. The energy, the passion, the electricity in it were palpable. The book was an instant success, and it became the frame of reference against which thoughtful Americans judged the rush of events in Europe. It exactly matched journalist to event: the right reporter at the right place at the right time. It stood, and still stands, as so few books have ever done--a pure act of journalistic witness.
