Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The Day My Life Went to the Dogs is a group of connecting stories filled with the humor, pathos, and richness pets bring to us. Judy Applefeld starts with an introduction of who she is, the influences of some of the people who helped shape her character, and why she sees things as she does. From injured rescues to the orphaned, from canines to avians, she relates how she began to understand the differences in each and how to integrate them into her pet family. The chapters explore how the group dynamics proved ever changing with each new addition or loss. The culmination of these tales comes together in the final chapter Things I've Learned from my Pets, a collection of useful maxims, anecdotes, and learnings, based on the thirty years of experience and adventures that come with pet ownership. Fried, Melanie (illustrator).…

Paperback. Condition: Good. The monumental life of Benjamin Rush, medical pioneer and one of our most provocative and unsung Founding Fathers   FINALIST FOR THE GEORGE WASHINGTON BOOK PRIZE * AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION NOTABLE BOOK OF THE YEAR   By the time he was thirty, Dr. Benjamin Rush had signed the Declaration of Independence, edited Common Sense, toured Europe as Benjamin Franklin's protégé, and become John Adams's confidant, and was soon to be appointed Washington's surgeon general. And as with the greatest Revolutionary minds, Rush was only just beginning his role in 1776 in the American experiment. As the new republic coalesced, he became a visionary writer and reformer; a medical pioneer whose insights and reforms revolutionized the treatment of mental illness; an opponent of slavery and prejudice by race, religion, or gender; an adviser to, and often the physician of, America's first leaders; and "the American Hippocrates." Rush reveals his singular life and towering legacy, installing him in the pantheon of our wisest and boldest Founding Fathers.   Praise for Rush   "Entertaining . . . Benjamin Rush has been undeservedly forgotten. In medicine . . . [and] as a political thinker, he was brilliant."--The New Yorker   "Superb . . . reminds us eloquently, abundantly, what a brilliant, original man Benjamin Rush was, and how his contributions to . . . the United States continue to bless us all."--The Philadelphia Inquirer   "Perceptive . . . [a] readable reassessment of Rush's remarkable career."--The Wall Street Journal   "An amazing life and a fascinating book."--CBS This Morning "Fried makes the case, in this comprehensive and fascinating biography, that renaissance man Benjamin Rush merits more attention. . . . Fried portrays Rush as a complex, flawed person and not just a list of accomplishments; . . . a testament to the authorial thoroughness and insight that will keep readers engaged until the last page."--Publishers Weekly (starred review) "[An] extraordinary and underappreciated man is reinstated to his rightful place in the canon of civilizational advancement in Rush. . . . Had I read Fried's Rush before the year's end, it would have crowned my favorite books of 2018 . . . [a] superb biography."--Brain Pickings.…
