  It began with an advertisement in The Times: 'Leaving England June, to explore rivers Central Brazil, if possible ascertain fate Colonel Fawcett; abundance game, big and small; exceptional fishing; room two more guns.' Colonel Fawcett and his son Jack had embarked on a journey in 1925 in search of a supposed lost city in the Amazon and were never seen again. This expedition was too much of a temptation for Peter Fleming, a young journalist with energy and an appetite for adventure. The journey, which begins in a
  reckless spirit of can-do frivolity, slowly darkens into something very personal and deeply testing 'for which Rider Haggard might have written the plot and Conrad designed the scenery.' Fleming recounts it in brilliant prose, leavening the danger with humour and honesty.

  In the late summer of 2022, the author finds his next traveling companion in the hot and dusty backyard of an antique shop on the backroads of Fossil, Oregon. The companion, Orvis, is an imaginary dog. True soulmates, they inspire one another to take a journey that neither could take alone, a journey of humor and forbearance, personal discovery, and egregious self-sacrifice. Together they break new ground in the annals of travel writing, finding the best and the worst of the places they visit, but always maintaining their strong opinions and sense of humor. 
  A Journey With Orvis is not really about the places they travel (from Mexico City to Istanbul, Zagreb to Paris, London to Dublin), but is more about the ‘who’ and ‘why’ of traveling itself. It helps that they travel lightly with only a small carry-on and open minds. It helps even more that one of them is imaginary.  
  By the end of the journey, it could be either one.

  Shortlisted for the Boardman Tasker Award for Mountain Literature 
   
   
   
  Elemental, fierce, and full of wonder, the Cairngorm mountains are the high and rocky heart of Scotland. To know them would take forever, to love them demands a kind of courageous surrender. 
   
   
   
  In The Hidden Fires, Merryn Glover undertakes that challenge with Nan Shepherd as companion and guiding light. Following in the footsteps and contours of The Living Mountain, she explores the same landscapes and themes as Shepherd's seminal work. This is a journey separated by time but unified by space and purpose, a conversation between two women across nearly a century that explores how entering the life of a mountain can illuminate our own. 
   
   
   
  An Australian who grew up in the Himalayas, her early experiences of the Scottish hills and weather left her cold. But gradually acclimatizing and with an approach like Shepherd's, that is more mountain wandering than mountaineering, she discovers the spark that sets the hills and herself on fire. Through Glover's deepening encounter, the wild majesty and iridescence of the Cairngorms is revealed in this beautiful evocation of landscape, place, and identity.
