  A true-life love story of a mated pair of Canada geese and their goslings. Non-Fiction Gold Award from The Non Fiction Authors Association (NFAA). This heart-warming saga showcases a committed and protective mated pair of Canada geese who decided to nest in a corporate courtyard in California. Author Barbara Klide and her business colleagues shared the honor of watching Hawkeye, Mother Goose, and their baby goslings for five months in consecutive years. With no body of water, the fully enclosed soccer field-sized courtyard offered the Canada geese a unique and sometimes challenging paradise. It allowed staff full observation, interaction, entertainment, and occasional worry while the geese warded off predators and ultimately thrived, nested, and hatched their goslings. 
  Coupled with stunning photography, these dynamic events deliver insights, and promote appreciation and awareness of the natural world we share with Canada geese. For adults, teens, and families, this journey of smart and elegant creatures is also packed with researched, educational facts, and in-depth resources about Canada geese for further study and enjoyment from the National Geographic, National Audubon Society, and California Rice Commission.

  Isle of Man in the Great War

  In August 1914, the Isle of Man was in the middle of a very successful summer season.  The tourist industry was crucial to the island, but suddenly holiday-makers left and the Steam Packet vessels that normally brought them were requisitioned.  The future was uncertain for those who relied on the season and their pleas for assistance were ignored.  For some, the cost of living became impossibly high and without the welfare measures that had been brought about in Britain, many faced destitution.  Others however, particularly farmers and those involved with the internment camps, would find war very profitable.  The divisions between rich and poor grew creating much social disaffection and a bitter battle for reform was fought.  As arguments raged over conscription, taxation, the economy and the housing of enemy aliens, the personalities of the period came to prominence.  The unprecedented scenes of direct action and several dramatic court cases are brought to life in this account of how the island began its path to progress.The Isle of Man played an important role in World War One, supplying troops and vessels and running special camps for the internment of enemy. 8,261 men enlisted in the armed forces, which was 82.3% of the Isle of Man's male population of military age. Of these, 1,165 gave their lives and 987 were wounded.The experience of war significantly impacted on the Island, from the initial enthusiasm for sorting out the German Kaiser in time for Christmas 1914, to the gradual realization of the enormity of human sacrifice the families of the Isle were committed to as the war stretched out over the next four years. The Great War affected everyone. At home there were wounded soldiers in military hospitals, refugees from Belgium and later on German prisoners of war. There were food and fuel shortages and disruption to schooling. The role of women changed dramatically and they undertook a variety of work undreamed of in peacetime. Extracts from contemporary letters reveal their heroism and give insights into what it was like under battle conditions.

  Since its formation nearly five billion years ago, our planet has been the sole living world in a vast and silent universe. Now Earth's isolation is coming to an end. Over the past two decades, astronomers have discovered thousands of "exoplanets" orbiting other stars, including some that could be similar to our own world. Studying those distant planets for signs of life will be crucial to understanding life's intricate mysteries right here on Earth. In a firsthand account of this unfolding revolution, Lee Billings draws on interviews with top researchers. He reveals how the search for other Earth-like planets is not only a scientific pursuit but also a reflection of our culture's timeless hopes, dreams, and fears. This is a compelling story of the pioneers seeking the meaning of life in the infinite depths of space.
