Paperback. Condition: Good. Exploring the history humans share with gorillas, Voices from the Ape House offers a behind-the-scenes look at the complicated social lives of western lowland gorillas through the eyes of a devoted zookeeper. The memoir traces Beth Armstrong's love and fascination for animals, from her childhood to her work with captive primates as an adult. Through her eyes, readers sense the awe and privilege of working with these animals at the Columbus Zoo. Individual gorillas there had an enormous effect on her life, shaping and influencing her commitment to improving gorilla husbandry and to involving her zoo in taking an active role to protect gorillas in the wild.   Through anecdotal stories, readers get a glimpse into the fascinating lives of gorillas--the familiar gentleness of mothers and fathers toward their infants, power plays and social climbing, the unruly nature of teenagers, the capacity for humor, and the shared sadness by group members as they mourn the death of one of their own. In the end, Armstrong's conflict with captivity and her lifelong fondness for these animals helped shape a zoo program dedicated to gorilla conservation. &nbsp.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Nestled against the shores of Lake Erie, Lakeside in the 1960s is the perfect place for a young girl to spend her summers. The views are magnificent, no cars are allowed within the gates, and the swimming area is well guarded. Children can wander and play in safety. It's the quintessential American small town. Claire thinks the road trip to Lakeside takes too long, but the journey is always worth it-because at the end, beloved Auntie Cree is waiting to welcome her. These stories of a time now gone center on Claire and the people of Lakeside. Sleepy and welcoming though Lakeside is, the community deals with the same challenges and joys that beset any small American town at the time. Claire's adventures as a child and teen intermingle with tales from the town as Lakeside deals with anti-Semitism, a kidnapping, and a then-scandalous love affair between two elderly women. Author Beth Armstrong visited Lakeside every year as a child, and now she combines memory and imagination to create nine tales of the northern Ohio town. You may not have visited Lakeside itself, but you'll recognize the time and the town-and the growing Claire does there.…
