Four books of special interest to history buffs were recent gifts to the Rappahannock Library.
They are The Korean War — Pusan to Chosin by Donald Knox; Scramble, a narrative history of the Battle of Britain by Norman Gelb; IM Days, the Hostages Remember by Tim Wells, and The Root, the Marines in Beirut by Eric Hammel.
All are oral histories told in the words of people who were there — the combat veterans of Korea and Britain, the hostages in Iran and Beirut.
The Library has just received a shipment of picture books for children to eryoy in the new year. Some sure to be favorites are:
Ray Brandenburg — A Secret for Grandmother’s Birthday and The Hit of the Party. Jack Kent — Joey Runs Away. David McPhail —Farm Morning. Anne Rockwell —My Baby-Sitter. Natalia Romanova — Once There Was a Tree. Lore Segal — The Story of Mrs. Lovewright and Purrless her Cat. Jean Van Leeuwen — More Tales of Amanda Pig. Shigeo Watanabe — What a Good Lunch! and Where’s My Daddy ?
New non-fiction for young readers includes Gail Gibbons’ Check it Out, the book about libraries; Sue Burchard’s The Statue of Liberty, and Jill Krementz’ The Fun of Cooking, favorite recipes shared by boys and girls aged six to sixteen, illustrated with large and black and white photographs.
