Summary

"Green Depths Hunt" explores essential wilderness survival skills, focusing on spear-making and animal tracking. It bridges the gap between modern life and ancestral knowledge, offering practical skills for survival and a deeper connection with nature. Did you know that the design of a spear can vary significantly depending on the intended prey and available resources? Or that animal tracks can reveal not just the species, but also its age, health, and direction of travel? The book begins by establishing the context of primitive survival, covering basic needs like shelter, water, and fire, while also exploring different biomes and their unique survival challenges. It then progresses into spear-making, detailing material selection, crafting techniques using natural tools, and the physics of spear throwing. Finally, it delves into the art of tracking, teaching readers to interpret animal behavior from subtle environmental signs and understand ecological relationships. This book emphasizes the importance of ethical hunting practices, ensuring minimal impact on wildlife and promoting environmental respect. This book is uniquely valuable because it provides practical, hands-on knowledge applicable in North American forest environments. By mastering the skills outlined, readers will not only enhance their survival capabilities but also gain a profound appreciation for the natural world.

    An inventive new look at the entwined histories of Britain and Ireland’s nations – and the people who have called them home. 
Acclaimed author and journalist Brian Groom reveals the colourful and often-contested history of the Celts, Romans, Anglo-Saxons, Vikings, Normans and others who have occupied these islands, along with their culture, languages and passions. 
Packed with surprise and insight, These Isles explores the role of religion, the British Empire, international diasporas and internal migration, gender relations and war in a nuanced and entertaining narrative. 
With forays into popular culture, sport, music, language, literature and art, These Isles stretches from 800,000-year-old footprints on a Norfolk beach to the changing fortunes of the early twenty-first century. It offers a uniquely rich and kaleidoscopic vision of the shared stories of people across Britain and Ireland – past and present. 
As historical, political non-fiction, These Isles follows the shifting geography of power across Britain and Ireland and their place in Europe, illuminating the roots of nationalism, patriotism and rival ideologies. It moves with a travel narrative’s range and pace, delivering a top, latest synthesis of what has made these islands—and keeps remaking them. 
For fans of Emma Bennett (The Bristol and Bath Art Book), Rick Broadbent (Jessica Ennis), Robin Ince (Normally Weird and Weirdly Normal), Jonn Elledge (A History of the World in 47 Borders), and Michael Palin (Travelling to Work).

    NATIONAL BESTSELLER! Capturing an ever-changing San Francisco, 25 acclaimed writers tell their stories of living in one of the most mesmerizing cities in the world.Over the last few decades, San Francisco has experienced radical changes with the influence of Silicon Valley, tech companies, and more. Countless articles, blogs, and even movies have tried to capture the complex nature of what San Francisco has become, a place millions of people have loved to call home, and yet are compelled to consider leaving. In this beautifully written collection, writers take on this Bay Area-dweller's eternal conflict: Should I stay or should I go?Including an introduction written by Gary Kamiya and essays from Margaret Cho, W. Kamau Bell, Michelle Tea, Beth Lisick, Daniel Handler, Bonnie Tsui, Stuart Schuffman, Alysia Abbott, Peter Coyote, Alia Volz, Duffy Jennings, John Law, and many more, The End of the Golden Gate is a penetrating journey that illuminates both what makes San Francisco so magnetizing and how it has changed vastly over time, shapeshifting to become something new for each generation of city dwellers.With essays chronicling the impact of the tech-industry invasion and the evolution, gentrification, and radical cost of living that has transformed San Francisco's most beloved neighborhoods, these prescient essayists capture the lasting imprint of the 1960s counterculture movement, as well as the fight to preserve the art, music, and other creative movements that make this forever the city of love.For anyone considering moving to San Francisco, wishing to relive the magic of the city, or anyone experiencing the sadness of leaving the bay—and ultimately, for anyone that needs a reminder of why we stay.Bound to be a long-time staple of San Francisco literature, anyone who has lived in or is currently living in San Francisco will enjoy the rich history of the city within these pages and relive intimate memories of their own.• GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY: A percentage of the proceeds will be given to charities that help those in the bay experiencing homelessness. Every copy purchased offers a small way to help those in need.

    The title page gives this book the subtitle, “True stories of the intrepid bravery and stirring adventures of missionaries with uncivilized man, wild beasts, and the forces of nature in all parts of the world.” The thrilling accounts in this collection include stories of Jacob Chamberlain’s medical ministry in India, the dangers faced by Alexander Mackay in Uganda, James Chalmers’ work among the headhunters of New Guinea, John Paton’s mission to the South Sea cannibals, and the Hawaiian queen Kapiolani’s challenge to the gods of the volcano. “Romantic” in the sense that these brave missionaries faced the unknown, but never “romanticized” – all sacrificed home and luxury, and many suffered the loss of family, fortune, and even their lives. (Summary by D. Leeson)

    Shitty Breaks - A Celebration of...

    Adios Paris. Hello Wolverhampton.



Not everything that glitters is gold - which is why Ben Aitken gave London the cold shoulder and went to Preston instead.



Hailing from Portsmouth, Ben knew from experience that unfashionable places could be quietly brilliant. So, over the course of a year, the author of A Chip Shop in Poznan and The Gran Tour visited twelve of the least popular spots in the UK and Ireland for a city break. The motivation wasn't to take the mickey or stick the boot in, but to seek out the good stuff, to uncover the gems, to have a nice time. By doing so, he hoped to demonstrate that anywhere - like anyone - can be interesting and nourishing and enjoyable if approached in the right fashion.


Ben went skiing in Sunderland, to the football in Wrexham, and fell in love with Dunfermline. He kissed an alpaca in Bradford, suffered jellied eels in Chelmsford, and had more craic in Limerick than was wise. The upshot is a celebration of the underdog; a love letter to the wrong direction; and evidence that there's no such thing as a shitty break. What's more, by spreading its affection beyond the usual suspects (which are often overdone and overpriced), Shitty Breaks promotes a less expensive and more sustainable brand of travel.


By ghosting Bath and giving Lisbon the boot, the book champions the unsung in an algorithmic, over-signposted world dominated by celebs and hotspots. Cheeky weekend in Milton Keynes anyone?

    In his late thirties, John Julius Reel left his native New York for Seville, hoping to reinvent himself, find his voice as a writer, and cast off the shadow of his famous father. When his girlfriend dumped him after a month-long visit, the last tie was cut and he had to face his future from his stark, mosquito-infested rented room. 
Alone in a foreign land, struggling with the language, and longing to find his place and purpose in the world, he began to rebuild his life. 
What follows is a tender, comical, and illuminating story about what it means to learn to speak and think in a new way, and to spend so much time away from home that the foreign becomes familiar. This heartwarming chronicle filled with Sevillian delicias (soccer, Iberian ham, creative cursing, and one extraordinary woman) reveals how love, language, and culture can transform one’s life forever.
