Описание: Oregon, 1851. Eli and Charlie Sisters, notorious professional killers, are on their way to California to kill a man named Hermann Kermit Warm. On the way, the brothers have a series of unsettling and violent experiences in the Darwinian landscape of Gold Rush America.
Charlie makes money and kills anyone who stands in his way; Eli doubts his vocation and falls in love. And they bicker a lot. Then they get to California, and discover that Warm is an inventor who has come up with a magical formula, which could make all of them very rich.
What happens next is utterly gripping, strange and sad. Told in deWitt's darkly comic and arresting style, THE SISTERS BROTHERS is the kind of Western the Coen Brothers might write - stark, unsettling and with a keen eye for the perversity of human motivation. Like his debut novel ABLUTIONS, THE SISTERS BROTHERS is a novel about the things you tell yourself in order to be able to continue to live the life you find yourself in, and what happens when those stories no longer work.
It is an inventive and strange and beautifully controlled piece of fiction, which shows an exciting expansion of Dewitt's range
"I absolutely loved reading this book. It is full of useful information for anyone looking at getting a Poodle, and gives you a great understanding of this fascinating breed." - Sherri-ann Harris, Poodle owner
Poodles have been highly sought-after since the 18th century for both their friendly, cooperative natures and their extremely high intelligence. Poodles are known as one of the most intelligent dog breeds in the world and they require both physical and mental activity on a daily basis, or they tend to get into mischief. Fortunately, they are also remarkably adaptable and trainable, so opportunities for advanced training are plentiful; these clever canines often excel at obedience competitions.
The popularity of the Poodle in the 18th century led to the development of three different sizes of Poodle-standard, miniature, and toy. While all of these sizes make wonderful, intelligent companions with an optimistic outlook, there are differences in temperament between the three. This helpful guide will explain those differences, including information regarding both health issues and commonly seen bad habits that are size-specific, and how to avoid them. Learn the answers to essential questions such as:
Is a Poodle the right dog for me?
How do I select the perfect Poodle for my lifestyle?
How do I prepare my home for my new Poodle puppy?
What training methods do Poodles best respond to?
The Complete Guide to Poodles is a wide-ranging guidebook that Poodle owners will reach for time and time again.

The history of the Poodle breed
Which size of Poodle is right for you
What you should expect from a breeder
How to choose a Poodle from a rescue
Getting the most out of the first month

The importance of mental and physical exercise

Описание: Cold War Comforts examines Canadian womens efforts to protect childrens health and safety between the dropping of the first atomic bomb in Hiroshima in 1945 and the end of the Vietnam War in 1975. Amid this global insecurity, many women participated in civil defence or joined the disarmament movement as means to protect their families from the consequences of nuclear war. To help children affected by conflicts in Europe and Asia, women also organized foreign relief and international adoptions. In Canada, women pursued different paths to peace and security. From all walks of life, and from all parts of the country, they dedicated themselves to finding ways to survive the hottest periods of the Cold War. What united these women was their shared concern for childrens survival amid Cold War fears and dangers. Acting on their identities as Canadian citizens and mothers, they characterized with their activism the genuine interest many women had in protecting childrens health and safety. In addition, their activities offered them a legitimate space to operate in the traditionally male realms of defence and diplomacy. Their efforts had a direct impact on the lives of children in Canada and abroad and influenced changes in Canadas education curriculum, immigration laws, welfare practices, defence policy, and international relations. Cold War Comforts offers insight into how women employed maternalism, nationalism, and internationalism in their work, and examines shifting constructions of family and gender in Cold War Canada. It will appeal to scholars of history, child and family studies, and social policy.
