It's where today's "quiet action" is-convivial coffee shops and laid-back cafs, much preferred to noisy bars and discos, especially then the settings are designed with as much panache as the ones that fill these inviting pages. 
Ninety-eight projects, some with floor plans, showcase both chic, contemporary looks and newly "old" traditional looks in coffee houses, up-scale food shops, and fun, theme-oriented cafs, with such evocative names as Second Cup, The Mill, Coffee Klatch, and Sacred Grounds. International in scope, examples are included from Latin America, Europe, the Pacific Rim, the United States, and Canada

This new edition of Store Windows contains a year's worth of display and promotional presentation ideas - and more. Arranged by the four seasons of the year, each section is crammed full of clever, amusing, stimulating and shopper-stopping images as well as suggested concepts for promoting seasonal fashions in unexpected ways. With over 400 full color pictures, selected and simply described by Martin M. Pegler, recognized authority on Display &amp; Visual Merchandising, the book leads from the first shows of Spring and the new Spring fashions, Mother's Day and Father's Day into Summertime when the living is casual, easy and fun. Then there are the falling leaves of Fall - the many textures of the season and the baring of the branches, and that blends into the color, excitement, animation and make-believe of Christmas and the things that dreams are made of. The spectacle of the holiday morphs into Sales and ends in a blast of red, hearts and flowers - messages of love - and Valentine's Day. As readers turn these pages and get caught up in the myriad ideas and concepts and the clever and imaginative use of inexpensive, easy-to-find, and easy-to-make props and decorative devices, they will also find some promotional presentations that graced the windows of retail department stores and specialty stores in the U.S., Canada and elsewhere. This is not a book for "copy-cats" but for creative people looking for the "hook" - that "certain something" that will start them on their own way to creating new and original displays. These imaginative seekers will find stimulating images to fill each day of the year - and any promotion that pops up in Store Windows No. 15.

It was only in World War I (1914-1918) that the combination of high quality service rifles and new telescopic sights brought the true 'sniper' to the battlefield as a distinct specialist. By 1918 the scout-sniper's value as an observer and gatherer of intelligence was as important as his lethal skills, but these were disregarded in the interwar years. From 1939-45 most armies had to train and equip snipers from scratch, but they were to play a major role in all theatres of war. Famously, on the Russian Front it was a role in which women excelled. This title recounts the development of weapons, sights, tactics and clothing in all the major armies, from Flanders to the Gulf.

The apocalyptic clashes of culture between the land-hungry whites and the American Indians, which reached their climax in the latter half of the 19th century, were among the most tragic of all wars ever fought. These conflicts pitted one civilisation against another, neither able to comprehend or accommodate the other. To the victor went domination of the continent, to the vanquished the destruction of their way of life. This volume describes those who took part in these wars, focusing on the Plains Indians such as the Sioux and the Cheyenne, the Apache peoples of the south-west, and their implacable foe, the US Cavalry.

Following on from the success of Out of Nowhere - A History of the Military Sniper, Martin Pegler has given us an in-depth study of not only the development of the rifle, but also the parallel emergence of the American rifleman, sharpshooter and sniper. His book examines the gradual evolution of the rifle in America from the earliest firearms introduced in the 15th century, to the most recent and highly accurate sniping rifles of the 21st century. He takes and in-depth look at the technological development of the weapons, sighting systems and ammunition as well as the unique part played by the U.S. firearms industry in pioneering mass-production. Considerable use has been made of contemporary accounts in describing how the use of the rifle during the Revolutionary War, Civil War and the more recent conflicts of the 20th and 21st centuries have impacted on American military history. This detailed account concludes with a study of the American sniper in modern warfare, including Afghanistan and the ongoing Operation Iraqi Freedom and it ultimately gives a fascinating overview of the relentless march of weapons technology, as well as an unusual insight into the lives and the motives of the men who used them.
