    The Acting Leader

    At the heart of the fire, where noise fades and the value of decision rises, the leader does not stand apart… he stands on the front line. 
    This book takes you inside the moment of real action, where the fire commander grips the hose as firmly as he grips control of the scene—supporting his team not through orders alone, but through presence, experience, and example. 
    This is not leadership from behind a desk. 
     It is leadership that knows when to advance, when to hold the line, and how to turn chaos into coordinated action and danger into a calculated mission. 
    You will discover how trust is built in the midst of smoke, how collective strength is directed in the harshest environments, and how a leader becomes part of the solution rather than a distant observer. 
    This is not just a book about firefighting. 
     It is a book about leadership—when action becomes a necessity, not a choice.

    Read by the author. 
    Even though technology makes us more "connected" than ever, we still hunger for authentic relationships--with the natural world, our creator, and one another. But how do we find them, especially when we’ve lost touch with many of the foundational rhythms that draw us together? 
    The Kindred Life is a rallying cry for real connection in a time when we need to re­capture what's been lost. In this collection of stories, photos, and recipes from her home on Kindred Farm in Santa Fe, Tennessee, sustainable farmer Christine Bailey shares both the beautiful and gritty moments as she grew from a hopeful urban gardener to co-owner of a farm full of produce, bees, chickens, and flowers that provides meaningful experiences for friends, family, and hundreds of guests each year. 
    Kindred means "tribe" or "family," and at the center of The Kindred Life is an invita­tion to pursue the experiences that unite us, like spending time in the dirt, slowing down, and joining in a simple meal under the stars. We were all created with the ability to carve out a life of connection, and it's worth every bit of sweat it takes to get there. We can slow down. We can step forward in bravery to do hard things well. And we can be intentional about gathering with and investing in others. 
    Discover the beauty of community, the magic of coming together around the table, and the lessons the land can teach you as you unearth your very own Kindred Life--right where you are. 
    Recipes and reflection questions are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.

    Spanish for travelers - easy...

    The goal of this book is to provide essential Spanish Travel Phrases every traveler needs to know, and some basic Spanish grammar rules. It is useful to learn Spanish phrases which can be useful in different situations as you travel. 
    The travel bug, once caught, is hard to get out of our system. But deep down we know that we don't understand the locals well - or maybe not at all. Could it be important to be able to converse with those in authority? English, at best, is a second language in those parts of the world, spoken by a few. Group travel is fine, but to rely on the group leader to always be at hand to explain restricts one's freedom.  It feels great to be independent! 
    Learning Spanish can help you communicate with locals. It is especially important to be able to speak Spanish if you plan a trip to a Spanish speaking country. You will find that natives will respect you more if you at least appear to be trying to learn and speak their language. Even though most Spanish speaking people can speak English (even a little), you may come across several who have no English skills at all. This is a key reason for learning how to speak Spanish. It will go a long way toward making your trip more enjoyable. 
    Spanish is native to Spain of course; but the Spanish explorers travelled around. So, you can be sure that South America, Central America, Mexico, the Caribbean and even the Philippines are all quite proficient in this lovely language. Spanish is an easy language to learn, thanks to its consistency of vowel sounds and relatively simple syntax. There are no tonal elements as exist in the Asian languages - another big plus for Spanish learners.

In addition, minimalism budgeting is a great way to really take a look at your finances and ensure that you actually spend your money on things that are important to you, instead of wasting it on things that bring you no joy.Living minimally will introduce you to the life you have always dreamed of, but in a way you have never seen before.

    Bring to life America's most amazing space projects that never were, using highly illustrated step-by-step guides.
    The major American space programmes that carried crews are well known. From Mercury, Gemini and Apollo in the 1960s and into the 1970s, through to the 1980s Space Shuttle, which made its final flight in 2011, they have all made their mark – even the North American X-15 rocket plane that earned many of its pilots their Astronaut Wings, owing to its high-altitude capability. All these involved a lot of new hardware, including the Saturn rockets, the Apollo craft and the Shuttle Orbiter with its solid-fuel rocket boosters and giant external tank. During this time of actual missions, space scientists and engineers were also looking at how all these new techniques and hardware could be put to even greater use. Many plans were devised, artwork drawn and technical models produced to illustrate the proposals. However, none were ever built and certainly none ever flew. This book looks at what could have been and how they can be built as models to display alongside those that did actually fly.
    Lost American Projects – A Spacecraft Modeller's Guide is a follow-on to Mat Irvine's earlier book, Scale Spacecraft Modelling.
