Stone Wall Methods

Sinopse

Stone Wall Methods explores how different cultures have utilized stone to create enduring structures, reflecting unique architectural styles and shaping cultural landscapes. The book examines both historical building practices and modern construction technologies, revealing how environmental conditions and cultural values influence specific techniques. Did you know that dry-stone walling, an ancient technique, doesn't use mortar, relying solely on the precise arrangement of stones for stability? Or that vernacular architecture, often exemplified by stone walls, can offer sustainable solutions relevant even today?

 
The book progresses logically, starting with fundamental principles like stone selection and foundation preparation before diving into case studies from various regions—Europe's dry-stone walls, Asia's stacked stone walls, and the Americas' mortar-based constructions. It then considers modern technologies and sustainable building practices.

 
By analyzing architectural surveys, historical documents, and geological reports, Stone Wall Methods provides a broad overview of construction details in accessible language, valuable for anyone interested in architecture, history, and cultural preservation.

If You Want Something Done -...

Nikki R. Haley

This program is read by the author.From the New York Times bestselling author of WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, Nikki Haley's sharply intimate and inspirational book celebrates the world's most iconic women leaders.“If you want something said, ask a man. If you want something done, ask a woman.” —Margaret ThatcherIn the spirit of Thatcher’s quote, Ambassador Nikki R. Haley offers inspiring examples of women who worked against obstacles and opposition to get things done—including Haley herself. As a brown girl growing up in Bamberg, South Carolina, no one would have predicted she would become the first minority female governor in America, the first female and the first minority governor in South Carolina, or the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. Her journey wasn’t an easy one. She faced many people who thought she didn’t belong—and who told her so. She was too brown. Too female. Too young. Too conservative. Too principled. Too idealistic. As far as Nikki was concerned, those were not reasons to hold her back. Those were all reasons to forge ahead. She drew inspiration from other trailblazing women throughout history who summoned the courage to be different and lead. This personal and compelling book celebrates 10 remarkable women who dared to be bold, from household names like Margaret Thatcher and Israel’s former prime minister Golda Meir, to Jeane Kirkpatrick, the first female U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, to lesser-known leaders like human rights activist Cindy Warmbier, education advocate Virginia Walden Ford, civil rights pioneer Claudette Colvin, and more. Woven with stories from Haley’s own childhood and political career, If You Want Something Done will inspire the next generation of leaders.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

A Boy Without Hope

Casey Watson

A BOY WITHOUT HOPE is the heart-breaking story of a boy who didn’t know the meaning of love. A history of abuse and neglect has left Miller destined for life’s scrap heap. But in this turbulent story of conflict and struggle, Casey Watson is determined to help Miller overcome his demons, show him love and give him hope.
Casey Watson is back, doing the job she does best – rolling up her sleeves and fostering the children who, on first meeting, seem like hopeless cases. But when she meets Miller and discovers the truth about his disturbing childhood, even Casey begins to doubt if this child will ever be able to accept love.
Found naked and alone on a railway track, Miller was just five when he was first admitted into the care system. Emotionally tormented by his biological parents, Miller has never understood how to establish meaningful relationships, and his destructive past, and over 20 failed placements, is sealing his fate in society’s social scrap heap.
After a torrent of violent behaviour and numerous failed attempts to help Miller, Casey decides to make an intervention, implementing a severe regime that strips Miller of all control. But soon the emotional demands of Miller’s case start to take their toll on Casey and Mike. Just how far is Casey willing to go to help Miller and save him from his inner demons?
In this deeply personal biography, Casey Watson, a top author and Sunday Times bestselling author, delves into the dysfunctional family life of Miller, a boy without hope. The memoirs of Miller's life are a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, even in the face of unimaginable hardship.
