The American artist and naturalist Titian Ramsay Peale II (1799-1885) had a passion for butterflies, and throughout his long life he wrote and illustrated an ambitious and comprehensive manuscript. The book, along with a companion volume on caterpillars, was never published, and it resides today in the Rare Book Collection of the American Museum of Natural History in New York. Now Peale's color plates, lovingly prepared for the printer by the artist more than 100 years ago, will be published for the first time in this beautiful volume. At last, Peale's life work, equivalent in scope and beauty to Audubon's Birds of North America, will be available to a wide audience. The book includes a foreword by Ellen V. Futter and text by Kenneth Haltman and David A. Grimaldi that describes the art and science Peale brought to his extraordinary work.

At the height of the Nazi occupation of Rome, an unlikely band of heroes comes together to save innocent lives in this breathtaking World War II novel based on real historical events. Rome, 1943. With the fall of Italy’s Fascist government and the Nazi regime occupying the streets of Rome, British ballerina Julia Bradbury is stranded and forced to take refuge at a hospital on Tiber Island. But when she learns of a deadly sickness sweeping through the quarantine wards—a fake disease known only as Syndrome K—she is drawn into one of the greatest cons in history. Alongside hospital staff, friars of the adjoining church, and two Allied medics, Julia risks everything to rescue Jewish Italians from the deadly clutches of the Holocaust. Soon a little girl who dreams of becoming a ballerina arrives at their door, and Julia is determined to reunite the young dancer with her family—if only she would reveal one crucial secret: her name. Present Day. Delaney Coleman recently lost her grandfather—a beloved small-town doctor and World War II veteran, so she returns home to help her aging parents. When a mysterious Italian woman reaches out claiming to own one of the family’s precious heirlooms, Delaney is compelled to travel to Italy and uncover the truth of her grandfather’s hidden past. With the help of the woman’s skeptical but charming grandson, Delaney learns of a Roman hospital that saved hundreds of Jewish people during the war. Soon, everything Delaney thought she knew about her grandfather comes into question. Based on true accounts of the invented Syndrome K sickness, The Italian Ballerina journeys from the Allied storming of the beaches at Salerno to the London ballet stage and the war-torn streets of World War II Rome, exploring the sometimes heart-wrenching choices we must make to find faith and forgiveness, and how saving a single life can impact countless others. Split timeline: WWII and present day Stand-alone novel Book length: approximately 107,000 words Includes discussion questions for book clubs

"Sugar Hill Days" describes what a careful observer might see when walking through the wild areas of the hills and wetlands that border the White Mountains of New Hampshire. For nearly twenty years, I have enjoyed spending time in the nearby wild areas of Sugar Hill, taking photographs and writing notes on what I have seen. Over the course of eighteen years, my observations filled up a couple dozen dog-eared, coffee-stained little notebooks. I was inspired by Thoreau to use this information to create a calendar for the natural seasons of Sugar Hill. Thoreau said that if one observed closely enough, each day might be viewed as its own season, because each day something new could be found blooming or flying or crawling, and each day something else might be found drooping or dying. I therefore organized my observations by day of the year, making it easy to discern the ebb and flow of life in and around nearby wetlands, fields, and forests. I now know when to keep an eye out for the first waxwings or for a lost fawn. I know when the bears are fattening themselves on apples, and when bitterns and great blue herons show up to hunt for frogs. Whatever the season, I know where to go and what to look for, because I know what I have seen before at that time of the year. My "calendar" includes a half dozen drawings and more than 50 full color photographs that documented the events that I entered into my notebook. Every drawing and every photo illustrates a specific description of wildlife or wildflowers that will be found in the book. The book provides many interesting accounts of animal behavior, as well as some facts about wildflowers and wildlife behavior at different times of the year. I hope that it will encourage people to go out more often to see what's going on in their own back yards and in any woods, fields, wetlands, rivers or ponds that happen to be nearby. Carl D.
