  Two days east of Lukla was a pleasant yak pasture surrounded by high peaks. When Col. Jim Roberts set out to look for it in 1953, he ended up making the first ascent of Mera Peak and sowing the seeds of Himalayan tourism. 
  Mera Peak has become a popular goal for trekkers and novice mountaineers, but few people climb to its true summit, and fewer still travel beyond it to find the secret yak pasture that sparked Roberts’ journey. 
  The yak pasture was the Hongu Valley, a hidden sanctuary of grassland, lakes and glaciers linking Mera Peak with the Everest region and Island Peak to the north. Fifty years after Roberts, Mark Horrell embarked on a trek through Nepal’s Khumbu region to follow in his footsteps, climb the two trekking peaks at either end of the valley, and resolve a long-standing mystery about Mera Peak’s height. 
  Join Mark on a captivating journey through this enchanting region of high mountains and remote valleys.

  Horse ownership is a rewarding experience that comes with a unique set of responsibilities and joys. From the first moment you decide to bring a horse into your life, you embark on a journey that requires dedication, patience, and a deep respect for the animal. This guide has been created to provide you with the essential knowledge needed to care for and manage your horse, whether you are a first-time owner or an experienced rider looking to enhance your skills. 
  Horses are magnificent creatures, each with their own personality, quirks, and needs. As a horse owner, understanding the basics of horse care is fundamental to ensuring their well-being and happiness. This includes everything from their nutrition and grooming to training and health management. While the bond between horse and owner can be incredibly rewarding, it also requires work and commitment. Horses are highly social animals that thrive on routine, care, and attention, and in turn, they can offer companionship, joy, and an opportunity for growth. 
  In this book, we will cover all aspects of horse care and management, focusing on both the practical and emotional elements of the relationship between you and your horse. We will begin by exploring the foundational knowledge about horses, such as their anatomy, behavior, and basic care needs. From there, we will guide you through the process of selecting the right horse for your lifestyle, setting up a proper environment, and creating a feeding and exercise plan. Health care, grooming, and tack maintenance will also be discussed, alongside strategies for training and managing your horse's behavior.

  With Her Own Hands - Women...

  Knitting, sewing, embroidery, quilting―throughout history, these and other forms of textile work have often been dismissed as merely "women's work" and attached to ideas of domesticity and obedience. Yet, as psychologist and avid knitter Nicole Nehrig explores in this captivating book, textile work has often been a way for women to exercise power. When their voices were silenced and other avenues were closed off to them, women used the tools they had―often a needle and thread―to seek freedom. 
   
  With Her Own Hands brings together remarkable stories of women who have used textiles as a means of liberation, from an eighteenth-century Quaker boarding school that used embroidered samplers to teach girls math and geography to the Quechua weavers working to preserve and revive Incan traditions today, and from the Miao women of southern China who, in the absence of a written language, pass down their histories in elaborate "story cloths" to a midcentury British women's postal art exchange. Textiles have been a way for women to explore their intellectual capacities, seek economic independence, create community, process traumas, and convey powerful messages of self-expression and political protest. 
   
  Heartfelt and deeply moving, With Her Own Hands is a celebration of women who have woven their own stories―and a testament to their resilience.

  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION 
    
  CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB 
    
  Quentin Tarantino is an American filmmaker, actor, and author known for his stylized violence, extended dialogue, and pop culture references. His films often feature non-linear storylines, mundane conversations, and homages to his favorite films. He began his career with Reservoir Dogs (1992) and achieved major success with Pulp Fiction (1994). He plans to retire after making ten films. Tarantino also produces and presents films, owns two movie theaters, and is a recognized film critic. He is known for using his own fictional brands in his films, and for his use of music from the 1960s and 70s. He has been involved in several controversies, including his use of racial slurs, and his defense of Roman Polanski. 
    
  CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES:

  Tarantino has claimed to have Cherokee ancestry through his mother and Italian ancestry through his father. His father, an aspiring actor, left the family before his birth. 
    
  At the age of 14, Tarantino wrote a screenplay called Captain Peachfuzz and the Anchovy Bandit, which was based on the movie Smokey and the Bandit. His mother ridiculed his writing skills, leading him to vow to never share his future wealth with her. 
    
  As a teenager, Tarantino shoplifted a novel from Kmart and was grounded by his mother, only allowed to attend theater. He dropped out of high school at the age of 15.
