>TERESA BARKER explores books that place little actors on a big stage.

>LAUREN KESSLER bids adieu to another book manuscript.

>Our thoughtful reviewers comment on seven new literary nonfiction books on topics ranging from western wildfires to British birds, from boat building to fine art collecting, from life in an urban hospital to the joys of house remodeling.
