    • Stuar Little je neobvyklý myšák. Narodil se v lidské rodině a bydlí v New Yorku se svými rodiči, starším bratrem Georgem a kocourem Snížkem. Ačkoliv je plachý a přemýšlivý přitahují ho neodolatelně různá dobrodružství. Stuartovo největší dobrodružství začalo ve chvíli, kdy jeho nejlepší přítelkyně, krásná malá ptačí žena Margalo, zmizela z hnízdečka v kapradí na knihovně, kde ji Littleovi ubytovali. Stuart poprvé opustil svůj domov, protože se rozhodl, že Margalo najde. Zažije spoustu dobrodružství. Ale najde Stuart svou přítelkyni?

      During the 1950s and '60s, writers E.B. White and Edmund Ware Smith carried on a long correspondence by letter, despite living only a few miles apart on the coast of Maine. Often the letters were written from one or the other while they were traveling, but missing their homes and friends. The letters represent a witty and charming correspondence between two literary giants, their stories of Maine, the beauty of our region, and the trials and tribulations of living here. Introduced by White's granddaughter, Martha White, the letters show their first formal communications, their chummy middle years, right up to the death of Edmund Ware Smith. Throughout, there is a strong sense of place and community.

The New York Times has named Here is New York one of the ten best books ever written about the metropolis, and The New Yorker calls it "the wittiest essay, and one of the most perceptive, ever done on the city.

    • Too personal for an almanac, too sophisticated for a domestic history, and too funny and self-doubting for a literary journal, One Man's Meat can best be described as a primer of a countryman's lessons a timeless recounting of experience that will never go out of style.
