  It is 1904, and every day the coaches plying between Lynmouth and Minehead scramble their way up and slither their way down the 1 in 4 gradient of Porlock Hill, the most feared hill in all of England. It takes six sturdy horses to drag a laden carriage to the top. There, the leading pair are detached and led back down into the village by a boy, a boy who knows how lucky he is to have been given such a responsible job at such a young age. But on this day in May, on his return journey with the tired horses Pug and Delia, he spots what looks like a sheep sheltering on the hillside. But as he gets closer, his heart races as he becomes aware... it is not a sheep... it is a white dress...

  First Ascent of Mount Rainier

  Hazard Stevens

  In the summer of 1870, Hazard Stevens and P. B. Van Trump set out to accomplish what no one had yet done: reach the summit of Mount Rainier. 
  In this firsthand account, Stevens recounts their pioneering ascent of the massive Washington volcano, from the challenges of approaching the mountain to the difficult climb across glaciers, snowfields, and rugged terrain. With little knowledge of the route and none of the modern equipment available to today’s mountaineers, the two climbers faced an uncertain and demanding journey toward the summit. 
  Stevens’s account offers a fascinating glimpse into the earliest days of mountaineering in the Pacific Northwest. His vivid descriptions capture the hazards, scenery, exhaustion, and exhilaration of climbing one of North America’s great peaks—and the determination required to stand where no climber had stood before. 
  A firsthand record of a landmark achievement, First Ascent of Mount Rainier preserves the story of one of the most important early climbs in American mountaineering.

  New England's coast is shaped as much by edges as destinations.
  
  Granite meets tide. Islands break the horizon. Harbors concentrate human life. Fog narrows distance. Northern forest presses toward salt water. Dunes, rocky headlands, inland woods, historic roads, and Atlantic weather make a coast that cannot be understood through Acadia alone even though Acadia remains its great park anchor.
  
  William Stanek's Acadia & the New England Coast follows those relationships.
  
  The guide helps travelers decide when to linger on Mount Desert Island, when the larger Maine coast deserves space, when a coastal park belongs to another trip, and how distance, ferries, weather, tourism pressure, tide, and seasonal rhythm reshape New England travel.
  
  For road travelers, walkers, photographers, families, couples, solo explorers, and return visitors, this is an Atlantic field guide built around granite, water, weather, and the art of allowing the coast to unfold instead of rushing north.
