The Emma Gees is " the rest of the story " from Herbert W. McBride, author of A Rifleman Went to War. First published in 1918 when his wartime experiences were very fresh in his mind, The Emma Gees is a personal and detailed account of McBride's service with the Machine Gun section of his battalion. The machine guns (or MG's, hence "Emma Gees" phonetically) became the dominant weapon during World War One with the gunners both inflicting- and taking- massive casualties. The job was dangerous enough to be given the nickname of "Suicide Club" and McBride vividly tells why. With chapters like "A Fine Day for Murder" and "Snipers Barn", this book makes a fine companion to A Rifleman Went to War. "Though Captain McBride would rather fight than write, his book 'The Emma Gees' proves that he can do both things admirably". -The Indianapolis News

Birds of the Hawaiian Islands

Noted ornithologist and anthropologist Henry Henshaw wrote this highly useful reference during a ten year sabbatical in the Hawaiian Islands. Out of print for decades, the few remaining copies of this scarce work are seldom found outside of academic libraries and private collections. This book is a facsimile reprint of the complete original as published in Honolulu in 1902. "In this admirable paper Mr. Henshaw has brought together in a thoroughly satisfactory manner, the result of his studies on Hawaiian birds, As a sympathetic and keen observer of Nature, the author is well known, and the present treatise is easily the best work we have on the natural history of the island avifauna. Part I consists of introductory matter, describing Hawaii as an Ornithological Field, Obstacles to Ornithological Studies in Hawaiian Islands, Destruction of Hawaiian Forests, Environmental Changes Disastrous to Hawaiian Birds, Faunal Zones, Diseases of Hawaiian Birds, Origin of Hawaiian Birds, Ornithological Knowledge of Hawaiian Natives, and History of Ornithological Investigations in the Islands, all of which is remarkably interesting reading. Part II is the Descriptive portion. Under each species is given a biographical sketch and a short description... It is probable that few persons in this country have any conception of the difficulties attending the observation of native land birds in the islands. Mr. Henshaw's contribution is therefore so much the more valuable" - Walter K. Fisher. - The Condor, 1903
