Book excerpt: Australia's extensive coastline has a rich and diverse maritime history. In Search of Fish and Fortune celebrates the history of fishing and pearling as some of the first commercial trades established following European settlement on the western coastline of Australia, offering an insight into the evolution of design, craftsmanship, skills, and technology of fishing craft. The development of the fishing and pearling industries and the means by which fishers and boat-builders plied their trade is told through the stories of 15 significant vessels from Western Australia's five principle fishing areas. Stretching as far back as 1875, these stories are about the grassroots fisher folk and the builders of their unique watercraft that took on the many challenges inherent in Australia's western seas and rivers, to help pioneer the diverse and prosperous fisheries that exist today. Showcasing over 60 magnificent line drawings executed with inimitable precision and beauty by master heritage shipwright Bill Leonard, In Search of Fish and Fortune features maps and classic photographs that illustrate the stories of the vessels and the generations of boat-builders, shipwrights, and fishermen that constructed, owned, and sailed them.

Book excerpt: In Search of Hiroshi is in many ways a familiar American story-the odyssey of a young man, torn from his cultural roots, in search of an identity. What makes it unique, however, is that the journey delves into the psychic aftermath of one of the darker chapters of American history, the World War II internment of Japanese Americans. Gene Oishi, the son of Japanese immigrants, spent three years of his childhood confined to camps in the desert wilderness of Arizona. But In Search of Hiroshi is more than a profile of lingering psychic damage. It is an intense and compelling story of dark fears and quiet courage, of despair giving way to hope and love. In searching for himself and his roots, both as an American and a Japanese, Gene Oishi shatters the glossy image of the Japanese-Americans as a well-adjusted and contented ''model minority.'' But In Search of Hiroshi is not only a Japanese-American story: it is also about America and the American experience, seen from a different-and often surprising-perspective.

And he’s pretty sure he hasn’t paid his dues to the American Journalism Alliance anytime recently. But somebody has. Fletch’s Fortune Enjoying himself on the French Riviera, developing a killer tan, and sleeping with the neighbor’s wife, Fletch is feeling pretty flush. But when agents Eggers and Fabens show up with a little more information about Fletch than is comfortable and an invitation to the A.J.A. convention, how could he refuse? Fletch’s Fortune So he finds himself enlisted as a spy among his peers. But before he can even set up his surveillance, there’s a murder. And almost everybody’s a suspect. Because a lot of people were employed by Walter March, and most of them had a reason to hate him. From the Trade Paperback edition.
