Synopsis

In "The Survival Handbook," the U.S. Department of Defense delivers a comprehensive guide that distills essential survival techniques and principles for various scenarios, ranging from natural disasters to military operations. Written in a clear and pragmatic style, the handbook is structured to provide readers with easily accessible information, incorporating illustrated instructions alongside expert advice. This manual reflects the urgency of preparation in a world increasingly marked by unpredictability, and it embodies a robust commitment to resilience and self-sufficiency while drawing from extensive military training and operational experience. The U.S. Department of Defense, as an institution charged with protecting national security, has long recognized the importance of equipping individuals with the knowledge needed to thrive in adverse conditions. Influenced by decades of experience in diverse environments, the Department compiles insights from military operations, survival training, and emergency response strategies. This expertise is channeled into the handbook, making it an invaluable resource not just for military personnel but also for everyday citizens seeking to enhance their self-reliance and preparedness. I highly recommend "The Survival Handbook" to both outdoor enthusiasts and those residing in urban settings. It empowers readers with practical skills and instills confidence, making it an essential addition to any library. This work serves as a vital reference point for anyone wishing to navigate the complexities of survival with knowledge and composure.

    This audiobook of RYA European Waterways Regulation has been updated to match CEVNI 6. Covering subject areas such as Basic Rules, Visual Signs, Buoyage, Designated Areas, Sound Signals and more, this is the ideal audiobook for those wanting to pass the CEVNI test, a legal requirement for those cruising the European inland waterways. 
    The CEVNI code was devised by the United Nations in 1985 and governs navigation on all interconnected European inland waterways. It was established to enable sailors of all nationalities to communicate, and to understand what is going on without the need to speak each other’s language. By law, all those cruising on European inland waterways must have passed the CEVNI test and have a reference copy onboard. 
    Knowledgeable author Tam Murrell has been cruising since the late 1950’s, working with narrow boats and barges on UK inland waters, to small coasters trading in and around the Thames estuary and into Northern Europe. Since 1995, Tam and his wife have spent much of their time on continental waterways on their 24m Dutch barge. 
    As the RYA’s supporting material for the CEVNI test, RYA European Waterways Regulation is the ideal audiobook for those wanting to cruise the inland waterways of Europe.

    From an Olympic gold medal–winning coach, a new playbook for effective athlete education and team building 
     
     
     
    Championship results require championship behaviors—it's as simple as that. In this essential book, Hugh McCutcheon provides a proven framework for competitive excellence based in motor learning, psychology, and decades of coaching experience and success. 
     
     
     
    Championship Behaviors provides athletes, parents of athletes, and coaches a defined path to the "how" of significant achievement while simply and clearly explaining the research behind the "why." McCutcheon speaks to the need for aspiring athletes to work, learn, and compete and the responsibility coaches have to teach, coach, and mentor. As he says, "We won't always have five-star talent, but we can often make up the difference by being five-star teachers, learners, and competitors." 
     
     
     
    A sought-after coach and consultant, McCutcheon also illuminates the value of integrating the physical, mental, and social aspects of sport to maximize chances of competitive success.

Coming About is a memoir of Mario and Jim who, at 40, quit their jobs and sell their home in San Francisco to follow their dream. They buy a 50-foot sailboat and move to St. Thomas, Virgin Islands where they discover many quirky facets of adjusting to life on the island as well as its many cultural idiosyncrasies. During the maiden voyage from the US mainland to St. Thomas, they encounter treacherous weather conditions and a series of life-threatening events that lead to a rescue at sea and the destruction of their dreams of retirement in a Caribbean paradise. Battling relentlessly crushing waves and shark-infested waters, their lives hang in the balance. Their struggles are vividly recounted as they search for meaning in the near loss of their lives and the shattering of their dreams.

    Shortlisted for the Sports Book Awards for Best Sports Writing of the Year and the USGA Herbert Warren Wind Book Award
    The Long Golden Afternoon tells the story of the transformative generation of golf that followed the rise of Young Tom Morris - an era of sweeping change that saw Scotland's national pastime become one of the rare games played around the world.
    It begins with the first epochal performance after Tommy - John Ball's victory at Prestwick in 1890 as the first Englishman and the first amateur to win the Open Championship - and continues through the outbreak of the Great War. If Tommy ignited the flame of golf in England, Ball's breakthrough turned that smoldering fire into a conflagration.
    The generation that followed would witness the game's coming of age. It would see an explosion in golf's popularity, the invention of revolutionary new balls and clubs, the emergence of professional tours, the organization of the game and its rules, a renaissance in writing and thinking about golf, and the decision that the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews must always remain the sport's guiding light.
    'A beautifully crafted examination of a period in the history of golf that will never again be witnessed. It is not to be missed' - Jim Davis, The Golf

    On the 23rd of May 2019, Hakan Bulgurlu became one of the fortunate few to have reached the summit of Mount Everest. To stand on top of the world’s highest mountain is a humbling experience, to bear witness to nature at its most awe-inspiring and powerful is even more humbling. Bulgurlu’s quest to climb Everest came with a purpose: making the environment the centre of his ambition to highlight the catastrophic effect climate change is having on our planet, to lead by example and to seek out practical solutions. He wanted to use the expedition as a wake-up call to what we are doing to the natural world.  
    In his powerful new book, Bulgurlu tells the fascinating story of this adventure of a lifetime, harrowing and exhilarating in equal measure. He delves into the roots of the environmental crisis we find ourselves in, speaking to climate activists and campaigners, biologists, scientists, filmmakers, academics, economists, entrepreneurs, global leaders and innovators. They help shed light on the issues that we face and the solutions that will help secure a better future for generations to come. In this gripping account of his journey, Bulgurlu describes the challenges he faced in reaching the summit, and the challenges we all face in protecting the planet and the future of humanity.
