Winter Reading List
This what I have been reading in the last month or so. Also read, and returned to the library; two novels set in Minnesota, Snow Blind, by mother/daughter authors P.J. Tracy and The Cape Ann, by Faith Sullivan; the most recent Isabel Dalhousie story - The Lost Art of Gratitude, by Alexander McCall Smith; and How Trees Die, by University of Minnesota Professor of Horticultural Science, Jeff Gillman.
Here are some books that make nice companions:
The famous gourmand's histoire, and her much-published and sauce-stained labor of love.
Snowflake Bentley, the story of a farmer who learned to photograph snowflakes, is beautifully illustrated with Mary Azarian's wonderful woodcuts. Its perfect partner is Ken Libbrecht's field guide for snowflake-watching.
