A New Dawn gives it to them, inviting readers to join some of their favorite YA authors as they look at the series with fresh eyes and fall in love with Edward, Bella, and the rest of Forks, Wash., all over again. Edited by bestselling author Ellen Hopkins, A New Dawn is packed with the same debates readers engage in with friends: Should Bella have chosen Edward or Jacob? How much control do Meyer's vampires and werewolves really have over their own lives? The collection also goes further: Is Edward a romantic or a (really hot) sociopath? How do the Quileute werewolves other Native American wolf myths? What does the Twilight series have in common with Shakespeare? With contributions from Megan McCafferty, Cassandra Clare, Rachel Caine, and many more, A New Dawn answers these questions and more for a teen (and adult!) audience hungry for clever, view-changing commentary on their favorite series. *** Quantity Available: 1.

Early days in Langlade, Lincoln and Shawano Counties, a tri-county area in north central Wisconsin, are recalled through in this NEW 24-page booklet, filled with local history and biographies of prominent residents. The information is extracted from a rare 1881 book, entitled History of Northern Wisconsin. The booklet is printed single-sided on 60 pound 8 1/2" x 11" opaque paper. The front cover is a parchtex card stock, protected with a vinyl sheet. We've enlarged this tri-county area of a map from the original book, and included it. The county shown as "New" on the map was re-named "Langlade" about the time the book was published in 1881. Because the county was newly organized and sparcely settled, the bulk of the data in our booklet concerns Lincoln and Shawano Counties. When the original book was written, Lincoln and Langlade counties extended north to the state of Michigan, encompassing present-day Oneida and Vilas Counties, while Shawano County included what is now Menominee County. For comparison we've included a recent outline map of the state's counties. Two other maps of historic interest are also included. Communities currently listed for this area by the National Association of Counties include: Langlade County: Ackley, Ainsworth, Antigo (County Seat), Bryant, Deerbrook, Elcho, Elton, Evergreen, Kempster, Langlade, Lily, Neva, Norwood, Parrish, Pearson, Peck, Phlox, Pickerel, Polar, Price, Rolling, Summit, Summit Lake, Upham, Vilas, White Lake, Wolf River.
