Maison d'édition: DigiCat

Synopsis

In "Winter," Dallas Lore Sharp immerses readers in an evocative exploration of the winter season, weaving together nature writing, rich imagery, and insightful observations that reflect the profound beauty of this often-overlooked time of year. Sharp employs a lyrical prose style, addressing the innate connection between humanity and nature, while drawing on his experiences in the serene landscapes of New England. This work stands as a testament to the literary tradition of nature writing, echoing the styles of Ralph Waldo Emerson and John Burroughs, yet carving its own distinct path through the lens of winter's austere charm. Dallas Lore Sharp, an esteemed author, naturalist, and educator, dedicated much of his life to studying and promoting the appreciation of the natural world. His experiences as a professor and a passionate observer of wildlife informed his lyrical depictions, fostering a deep understanding of both the environmental and existential significance of the seasons. Sharp's ability to capture the essence of winter is a reflection of his love for the natural world, making this work deeply personal and deeply resonant. "Winter" is a remarkable read for anyone who seeks to rekindle their appreciation for the beauty hidden within the seasonal cycles. Sharp's thoughtful prose invites readers to pause, reflect, and find joy in the cold stillness of winter, ultimately enriching their understanding of nature's rhythms. This book is not only a celebration of winter but also an exploration of its implications for the human spirit.

Ancient Wonderings: Journeys...

James Canton

‘Intensely alive to the landscape; its pasts, people and creatures’ Robert Macfarlane
Take a journey into our ancient past. Explore a long-lost landscape and gradually discover the minds, beliefs and cultural practices of those souls who lived on these lands thousands of years before you.
Travelling the length and breadth of Britain, James Canton pursues his obsession with the physical traces of the ancient world: stone circles, flint arrowheads, sacred stones, gold, and a lost Roman road. He ponders the features of the natural world that occupied ancient minds: the night sky, shooting stars, the rising and setting sun. Wandering to the furthest reaches of the islands, he finds an undeciphered standing stone north of Aberdeen and follows the first footsteps on the edge of a long-lost Ice Age land in the North Sea.
As Canton walks the modern terrain, slowly understanding the ancient signs that lie within and beneath it, he weaves a gentle tale of discovery, showing how, beyond the superficial differences of life-style and culture, the ancient inhabitants of the British Isles were much closer to the present-day one than we might imagine.
This historical masterpiece by James Canton takes us on a top-tier exploration of geography and history. It's a bestseller that delves deep into the roots of our ancient past, making it a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the world we live in today.
For fans of John Lewis-Stempel (Six Weeks), Robert Macfarlane (Desert Solitaire), Amy Jeffs (Storyland), Matthew Green (Shadowlands), and Katherine May (Wintering).

Stroll updated edition

Shawn Micallef

THE TORONTO STAR'S  "30 BOOKS WE CAN'T WAIT TO READ THIS SPRING"The updated edition of a Toronto favourite meanders around some of the city’s unique neighborhoods and considers what makes a city walkableWhat is the 'Toronto look'? Glass skyscrapers rise beside Victorian homes, and Brutalist apartment buildings often mark the edge of leafy ravines, creating a city of contrasts whose architectural look can only be defined by telling the story of how it came together and how it works, today, as an imperfect machine.Shawn Micallef has been examining Toronto’s streetscapes for decades. His psychogeographic reportages situate Toronto's buildings and streets in living, breathing detail, and tell us about the people who use them; the ways, intended or otherwise, that they are being used; and how they are evolving. 
Stroll celebrates Toronto's details – some subtle, others grand – at the speed of walking and, in so doing, helps us to better get to know its many neighbourhoods, taking us from well-known spots like the CN Tower and Pearson Airport to the overlooked corners of Scarborough and all the way to the end of the Leslie Street Spit in Lake Ontario 
"Shawn Micallef offers an alternative perspective on the shape of neighbourhoods with an updated edition of Stroll, which originally appeared fifteen years ago. His 'psychogeographic walking tours' take us through what he calls the Middle, Westish, Northish, Eastish, and Eastest areas of Toronto, showing us the known and sometimes obscure buildings and features that define Canada’s largest city." – Pamela Divinsky, Literary Review of Canada 
"Shawn Micallef is the unofficial mayor of Toronto, the genial ambassador the city needs and deserves. As he strolls Toronto’s broad avenues and its little streets, he finds hidden pockets of delight – and weirdness, too. Join him and fall in love with the city again." – Liz Renzetti, author of Bury the Lead 
"When I moved to Toronto in 2011, Stroll was the first book I added to my library and course reading lists. My students and I get lost in the PATH, sneak into lobbies, and visit the archives with this book as our guide. Micallef’s friendly voice invites us to slow down and notice not just a few landmark buildings but the city’s built fabric as a whole. This updated version offers our collective memory a much-needed affectionate yet critical view of recent changes to the city." – Erica Allen-Kim, Author of Building Little Saigon 
"Stroll is a delightful and eccentric guidebook, full of clever writing, amusing stories and charming maps that will make you want to strap on your walking shoes and head into the streets of Toronto." – Carol Off, Author/Broadcaster"Shawn Micallef looks at the city in a way we all should more often – he sees it as a living book that is alive with stories just waiting to be told to the attentive observer. In Stroll, he gives us an introduction to just how interesting and surprisingly dramatic those stories are, and how exciting our city is when we hear them." – David Crombie, former mayor of Toronto"A smart and intimate guide to the city that makes you feel like an insider from start to finish." – Douglas CouplandThis new edition updates things in the city that have changed and includes several new walks.

The Wise Words of Wallace D Wattles

Wallace D. Wattles

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Wallace D Wattles was an American author, born in 1911.

He was probably most famous for his book "The Science of Getting Rich", although he wrote several other books describing the Science of Being Well, and the Science of Being Great.

He was a man very knowledgeable about the world and the natural laws that exist, and this short book is a collection of his writings on what he termed scientific principles, or natural laws.

He first addresses the topic of Time, in "The Eternal Now", and how it is most important to think in the "now" rather than the future, or past.

He then goes on to "speak" about two natural laws of the universe, which are related - The Law of Attraction, and The Law of Cause and Effect. These are about how we attract in life what we habitually think about, and how for every effect, there is a cause.

Lastly, he goes on to discuss Quantum Physics, and how our world is put together.

The four parts end with a summary created by myself, Peter Burgess, who compiled these four topics, in which I provide a short overview of each, together with my own interpretation of an aspect of quantum physics.

These are quite technical topics and should ideally be listened to with the ebook open, in order to follow, and read the text. They may need listening to, a few times, to fully understand what he is saying, but these books contain some really useful information about how our world works, and how best to achieve what it is that you desire in life.

Definitely worth a listen.

Greener Than Thou - Surviving...

Mark Leiren-Young

A hilarious romp through the past, present, and future of Green politics in Canada.
"Incisive, frequently hilarious!" - Lean Out with Tara Headley
"I burst out loud laughing." - Brian Lilley, Full Comment Podcast
"Mark writes candidly and hilariously about the state of Green politics in Canada." - Joseph Planta, TheCommentary.ca
"It's great... Some of the details, my god, they make working in that party sound like living in a house of mirrors... Ouch." - Arshy Mann, The Hatchet
Mark Leiren-Young, a lifelong environmentalist and Leacock Medal-winning humour writer, journeys to the heart of greenness to reveal the toxic sludge of Canadian eco-politics.
For a brief moment in 2019, it looked like Elizabeth May’s Green wave could change Canadian politics and finally wield real power in Ottawa. During that brief moment, Leiren-Young was a campaign manager in a riding the federal Greens were sure to win. He quit on discovering that there was only one thing stopping the Green Party of Canada from changing the country’s electoral landscape forever: the Green Party of Canada.
The Greens were not ready for prime time. Or late night. Or four a.m., after last call, when voters stop being picky and are desperate for anyone with a nice smile. Once the spotlight hit, the Greens wilted, never to recover.
A comedic take on the sorry state of Canada’s environmental politics, Greener Than Thou explores how the Green party has repeatedly shot itself in the foot, blasted out its kneecaps, and done everything in its power to ensure it will never have a say in decisions that shape the future of our planet.
