Breads of the Southwest : Recipes in the Native American, Spanish, and Mexican Traditions 
By Beth Hensperger, Laurie Smith (Photographer) -- Filled with the likes of Taos Pumpkin Bread, Mexican Morning Buns, Three Kings Bread Ring and Blue Corn Bread with Pecans and Cheddar, 'Breads of the Southwest: Recipes in the Native American, Spanish, and Mexican Traditions' by Beth Hensperger weaves both old and new baking traditions within its well-composed pages. The chapter entitled 'Layers of Earth, Grain and Fire' presents the cultural and historical backdrop to the breads of the southwest, describing the prominence of corn, and holiday-related feast and festival days and the breads fundamental to them. Two impressive chapters, 'Old Southwest Bakery' (surveying fry bread, all kinds of tortillas, and such) and 'New Southwest Bakery' (exploring contemporary takes on southwestern breads-like Pumpkin-Cinnamon Rolls, Anise Egg Bread and Cornmeal Pueblo Bread with Walnuts), are filled with recipes that reflect the spirit of the region. The delightful quick bread-styled sections-'Pancakes and Waffles', 'Biscuits and Scones', ' Baking Powder Corn Breads', 'Muffins', and 'Quick Loaves'-will have you starting the day with Roasted Banana Pancakes or Blue Cornmeal Pancakes, two delicious batter-and griddle cakes, or baking up a big batch of Jalapeno Jack Cheese Scones for serving with a full-bodied soup or stew. A few minutes exposure to this book will have you re-thinking your entire line."    - - THIS IS A MUST HAVE BOOK!

Lacrosse : The National Game of the Iroquois  (DID YOU KNOW THIS?)
Diane Hoyt-Goldsmith, Lawrence Migdale  
 

 
American Indian Lacrosse : Little Brother of War
By Thomas, Jr. Vennum  - -a reader writes " Vennum's work covers a neglected aspect of North American history: the role of lacrosse in native culture. By examining varieties of the game played across the continent, Vennum demonstrates that it was more than just a sport. Lacrosse provided entertainment, served as a substitute for armed conflict (and sometimes was a precursor to it), and was part of native spirituality. Particularly fascinating is Vennum's ability to weave the sporting aspects of the game with the sociological. Also important is his investigation of how the majority culture has taken this game and turned into something completely different: with standardized plastic sticks and a for-profit motive for playing. By taking the story all the way to the present, the author reveals that to native Americans the game still means much more, although many nations no longer even know they once enjoyed playing the "fastest game on two feet.""
 
Lacrosse : Fundamentals for Winning (Sports Illustrated Winner's Circle Books)
By - David Urick, Bob Woodward  - -  a reader writes: I coach high school Lacrosse in Missouri, and have found this book a valuable tool in teaching Lacrosse to my players and their parents. I also loan this book out to other coaches and assistant coaches. The book is very comprehensive, but it is so easy to understand, that a total novice at Lacrosse is able to understand the game and even feel like an authority. It covers rules, history and strategy. In an area where Lacrosse is relatively new, this book is a god-send.
