Expert Australian, British, American, Chinese and other international divers joined the Thai Navy SEALs and hundreds of local volunteers to mount one of the most risky and complex rescue operations the world has ever seen.

In the 1990s, a "purity industry" emerged out of the white evangelical Christian culture.

Baxter shows how the French have celebrated the relationship between art and food.

Part history, part guidebook, Baxter's book offers a seductive menu of those places in the French capital where art and food have intersected, and brings to life the culinary experiences of Paris.
