  Isabella Lucy Bird was a 19th century English traveller, writer, and natural historian. She was a sickly child, however, while she was travelling she was almost always healthy. Her first trip, in 1854, took her to America, visiting relatives. Her first book, The Englishwoman in America was published anonymously two years later.Unbeaten Tracks in Japan is compiled of the letters she sent to her sister during her 7 months sojourn in Japan in 1878. Her travels there took her from Edo (now called Tokyo) through the interior - where she was often the first foreigner the locals had met - to Niigata, and from there to Aomori. There she crossed over to Yezo (Hokkaido), and her account on the life of the Ainu, an indigenous people of Japan, provides an interesting glimpse of days long past. (Summary by Availle)

  This book is designed to give guidance on the original, ex-factory specifications of the first-generation Range Rovers built between 1970 and 1996. Sometimes known as Range Rover Classics (although the only ones properly so called were built after autumn 1994), these models laid the foundations for the following generations of Land Rover's world-acclaimed Range Rover. Many of these early Range Rovers fell on hard times as they passed on to third, fourth and subsequent owners. Many were butchered beyond recognition when converted into off-road playthings. But now, more than a quarter of a century since the last examples were built, it is no surprise that enthusiasts have begun to restore examples to their original condition. This has created a demand for accurate information about what that original condition actually was. James Taylor has trawled painstakingly through original documents and examined original vehicles to put together all the known facts in one place. This guide will be essential reading for everyone with an interest in restoring or running one of these iconic models that became the foundation of today's Land Rover marque.

  Prisoner, Pet, or Prey 
  Finally able to communicate via a mix of sign language and drawings, Jessica now needs answers. Why was her planet destroyed by giant alien cats? What happened to her family? Why was she held in captivity for so long? Why is she being leashed? And most importantly, why has she been forced to breed, and what do they want with her and her unborn child? 
  For the first time in her life, Marsee has a friend, the tiny biped cub in her family's care. More than anything, she wants to help Little Flower recover from the trauma she's experienced and help prove to the Council that the cub is more than just an animal. Only Marsee's instinct sees the cub as yummy-smelling prey, too. 
  Having found out what happened to the young cub in his care, Councilor Jeran Chenzira must make an impossible decision: protect his family, or protect the cub and her entire species — a species that might just be too violent to be worth saving.
