The first solo book by celebrated interior designer Anthony Baratta, Decorate Happy showcases Baratta's preppy-chic style in a pattern-filled guide to decorating with verve and style. Anthony Baratta's rooms are happy. Whether they are found in the country or the city, these maximalist rooms are designed to make you smile. In his first solo book, Anthony Baratta, whose work has graced more than fifty magazine covers and been celebrated in the Cooper-Hewitt, shares twelve of his most recent houses, all in their own way perfect examples of his Classic high-color, high-pattern all-American style.

Old map of Korea by S. Kozaki. Restored and mounted.

This is a historical map showing Spanish possessions in West Africa from the year 1903. The map includes the islands of Fernando Póo (now known as Bioko), part of the modern-day country of Equatorial Guinea, Annobón Island, and the Elobey Islands, along with the Spanish-controlled areas on the continental region near Rio Muni. These territories were part of Spain's colonial empire and are situated in the Gulf of Guinea, off the coast of Central Africa. Fernando Póo (Bioko) is particularly notable for its volcanic origins and as a center of cocoa production during the colonial period. Annobón, lying further southwest of Bioko, is a small volcanic island. The Elobey Islands are very small and located near the coast of Gabon. Here's a brief overview of their significance: 1. **Bioko Island (Fernando Póo)**: The island has a rich biodiversity and is known for its unique flora and fauna, including several endemic species. Malabo, the capital city of Equatorial Guinea, is located here. 2. **Annobón Island**: This remote island has a small population and is known for its isolation and distinctive Creole culture, which has developed independently from the mainland. 3. **Elobey Islands**: These consist of Elobey Grande and Elobey Chico and are situated near the mouths of the Muni and Campo rivers. They were historically important as transit points in river trade...
