Sinopsis

Paths Erased explores the fascinating world of ancient roads and lost pathways, revealing how these forgotten routes shaped civilizations. The book highlights the intricate relationships between societies and their environments by examining the construction, utilization, and eventual abandonment of these vital arteries.

 
Discover how the Roman road system facilitated trade and military campaigns, while also acknowledging the environmental impact and displacement of indigenous populations caused by routes like the Oregon Trail.

 
The book unfolds in three parts, beginning with an introduction to the historical and archaeological significance of "erased paths." It then examines the environmental changes, political instability, and technological advancements that led to their disappearance, such as the Mayan causeways' abandonment due to deforestation.

 
Finally, the book details the methods used by archaeologists and historians to rediscover these pathways, including satellite imagery analysis and archaeological excavation. By studying these forgotten routes, we gain a unique lens through which to understand the dynamics of past civilizations and draw lessons for present-day challenges in infrastructure and cultural preservation.

    Things Can Only Get Better

    In this book, I present my own ideas on a wide variety of topics from writing, relationships, children, exercise, travel, Newfoundland and Labrador, the death of a parent, and my undying love of geeky hobbies and entertainment. 
     
    Aside from finding things to love and be hopeful for in the world, this book is about finding happiness within yourself. A journey of getting in touch with (and accepting) feelings and memories, even when dark or sad. For me it was a way of putting my own life in perspective, seeing how death is a part of life and that eventually, we all learn something from our parents and find ways to grow and change from the experiences they give us. 
     
    It is a book about removing distractions in life that promise happiness but lead only to hurt and confusion. It inspires us not only to find happiness in our lives but also to see that making the world better (and making other people happy) is the goal we should all share. Ultimately, it is about seeing the hope that continues to shine in this world and that you can only get out of life what you put in.

    We can all agree—birds are terrible. They're stupid and won't shut up. 
     
     
     
    Featuring fifty of the absolute worst birds to fly the earth, Kracht identifies each of their most terrible qualities, details exactly why they suck, and shows you why. Including all-new, all-worst fowl, such as: the absolute waste of feathers Cruddy Turdstone (Ruddy Turnstone), the utter a-hole Blank Staring-Eyes Flycrapper (Black Paradise Flycatcher), the outright loser Dowdy Woodfucker (Downy Woodpecker), and many more! 
     
     
     
    Even the author's previous bird takedown guides are no preparation for this hilariously harrowing collection of squawking, conceited, trash-eating, and even murderous idiots. The horror. The horror . . . 
     
     
     
    LOVE BIRDS? HATE BIRDS?: For those who hate birds and for bird lovers everywhere with a sense of humor, this handbook is equal parts profane and funny, and—let's face it—true. 
     
     
     
    ENTERTAINING AND EDUCATIONAL: This uproarious guide to all things wings includes tips for bird identification, musings on the avian population and classification, and more. Plus, each entry is accompanied by facts about a bird's (annoying) call, its (dumb) migratory pattern, its (downright tacky) markings, and more.

    The Secret Carp is a fishing book with a difference. As The Independent comments, it is one of the few books that manages to capture the real joy of fishing in such a way that even a non-angler could be seduced. It tells the true story of the events of a single day and night beside an English carp lake in high summer.
    When he stumbled upon a long-neglected, overgrown lake holding some monster carp, Chris Yates knew that he had discovered the kind of place about which every carp angler dreams. He set about trying to catch the huge, elusive inhabitants with rod and line. It was a quest that was to reveal many insights into the secretive behaviour of this king of freshwater fish and bring him thrillingly into contact with his quarry.
    Waiting, watching and stalking, quite undeterred by the damp sleeping bag and the cold. Yates' enthralling story whispers adventure and promise. And it is punctuated by moments of great drama as monster fish disturb the tranquil world of the angler.
    Fishermen of all persuasions will enjoy this masterful angling chronicle.
