Great Garden Gadgets

admin — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 21:48:11 +0000

Every gardener loves a gadget, especially one made right at home. Great Garden Gadgets is packed with clear step-by-step instructions and how-to illustrations for creating hundreds of nifty gizmos and gardening aids from household items and other common materials. Created just for the trade, this attractive, affordable paperback is the only book on the market that focuses entirely on do-it-yourself items for the garden. The projects range in difficulty, from simple devices anyone can do (for example, make a seed tape out of toilet paper) to more challenging projects like row cover frames, some of which require power tools. All the projects use common household items, from PVC piping and bed-sheets to paintbrushes and toilet paper. A repeating feature, “Recycle It!”, offers fast and fun ways to utilize basement castaways: Transform an old Frisbee into a plant saucer or butterfly bath, or use old license plates as a garden pick-up tool. All the ideas in Great Garden gadgets were gleaned from real gardeners — including many urban and small-space gardeners — so readers can dig right in, confident that their homemade gadgets will really work.

Spies

admin — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 00:46:18 +0000

“An illustrated guide to the deadly world of espionage.”

Agents, double agents and multiple agents are vital to waging war successfully and they often help nations avoid war altogether. Spies have affected the outcomes of wars and crucial battles throughout history.

Spies exposes the secret successes and public failures of intelligence gathering and operations from ancient times to the current war on terrorism.

Using easy-to-follow illustrated case studies and sidebar features, Spies reveals the behind-the-scenes stories of famous spies, international secrets, betrayals and bravery in the long history of spying.

The book describes in exciting detail: The art of spy tradecraft Techniques spies use to gather and send secrets Devices used to steal state secrets How agents survive in hostile environments Whether or not spies like James Bond really exist.

Today, sophisticated digital and space-based technology gathers untold amounts of raw data. Yet far from rendering the spy on the ground obsolete, human intelligence is more vital than ever to separate the truth from the deception.

Spies is a factual and fascinating look into a dangerous world where nothing is what it appears to be.
