Around the Bend
The Missouri River is one of the most dangerous rivers in the United States--and one of the most economically important. Even as prolonged drought in the Midwest has imperiled urban drinking water and agricultural water supplies, parched regions in the basin far from the river have proposed piping water from the Missouri to alleviate their own water shortages.In an attempt to better understand the river and its place in the American imagination, Lisa G. Dill set out with four of her mother's cousins on a forty-year-old pontoon boat on a modern voyage of discovery. The hope was to sail nearly 750 river miles from Sioux City, Iowa, to St. Louis, Missouri, a goal whose success was by no means assured, given the rickety state of the family vessel. From departure--a day late, because the motor wouldn't start--until she got off the boat, Dill bears witness to the river, its flora and fauna, the efforts to control it, and its history, along with the misadventures of a crew of "relative strangers" and the boat's tenuous viability on one of the world's most powerful rivers.In Around the Bend Dill teases out the cultural and environmental history of the Missouri and urges readers to change the way they think about America's rivers and the landscapes through which they flow.

Boston is one of the most historic and important cities in the United States. Famous for the Boston Tea Party, it is known as the birthplace of the American Revolution. The city was founded in 1630 by Puritan colonists and was already 150 years old by the time the 13 colonies formed a new nation. Packed with photographs that capture the history and the modern character of the city, Boston: The Cradle of Liberty provides a splendid sampling of all the city has to offer, including: Historic Beacon Hill, home to the Massachusetts State House and Suffolk University and known for its Federal-style townhouses, gas street lanterns and brick sidewalks. Faneuil Hall, a marketplace and meeting hall opened in 1742, the site of speeches by Samuel Adams and James Otis calling for independence from Great Britain. Harvard University, whose graduates include six American presidents, is the oldest and one of the most famous universities in the country. Fenway Park, the oldest baseball stadium in Major League Baseball and home to the Boston Red Sox.
