Sustained by a clear, lyrical prose style, this study from archeologist Langlands compels crafters to look more closely at the implications of making as a way of life. Discussing such traditional disciplines as thatching, weaving, and leather making, he posits craft as a model for a resilient and sustainable mode of existing in an uncertain world.

This is a readily usable, exceptionally clear, and compassionate guide that will provide hope and motivation for disorganized, seemingly “hopeless” kids and their sometimes harried caregivers.
Richards, a James Beard–nominated chef from Atlanta, breathes new life into classic soul food fare—for example, by adding collard greens to ramen noodles, or by incorporating peaches into as many dishes as he can. His recipes are imaginative and inspirational.
