Synopsis

After riding then those ten days from the city of Juju, you find yourself in a kingdom called Taianfu, and the city at which you arrive, which is the capital, is also called Taianfu, a very great and fine city. [But at the end of five days’ journey out of those ten, they say there is a city unusually large and handsome called Acbaluc, whereat terminate in this direction the hunting preserves of the Emperor, within which no one dares to sport except the Emperor and his family, and those who are on the books of the Grand Falconer. Beyond this limit any one is at liberty to sport, if he be a gentleman. The Great Kaan, however, scarcely ever went hunting in this direction, and hence the game, particularly the hares, had increased and multiplied to such an extent that all the crops of the Province were destroyed. The Great Kaan being informed of this, proceeded thither with all his Court, and the game that was taken was past counting.]

    An extraordinary view of the wild horse bands in the Rockies' Pryor Mountains like you've never seen before, Wild Stallions of the Rockies chronicles the life of the leader stallion, Cloud (1995-2016). This remarkable account details his reign among the wild horse herds in the Rockies, as well as both his immediate family band and rival bands that occupy the same region on the Montana-Wyoming border. You'll see the predators, both human and animal, that challenge the stallions' survival, plus the fighting between bands for power, family, and territory. Phenomenal photography gives you an up close and personal look at the feeding, foaling, and freedom of these wild horses, and interactive QR codes grant you access to exclusive and stunning video from its companion PBS Nature documentary series, Cloud: Challenge of the Stallions. This fascinating standalone book that emphasizes the mission of saving and preserving the wild horse bands in the Rocky Mountains is unlike any other Cloud book available. One-of-a-kind and truly special, Wild Stallions of the Rockies is an absolute must-have for anyone passionate about these stunning wild animals.

    Named one of the most anticipated books of 2024 by the BBC, the Observer, Irish Times, the Guardian, and The Millions. 
     
     
     
    In 2020, Olivia Laing began to restore an eighteenth century walled garden in Suffolk, an overgrown Eden of unusual plants. The work brought to light a crucial question for our age: Who gets to live in paradise, and how can we share it while there's still time? Moving between real and imagined gardens, from Milton's Paradise Lost to John Clare's enclosure elegies, from a wartime sanctuary in Italy to a grotesque aristocratic pleasure ground funded by slavery, Laing interrogates the sometimes shocking cost of making paradise on earth. 
     
     
     
    But the story of the garden doesn't always enact larger patterns of privilege and exclusion. It's also a place of rebel outposts and communal dreams. From the improbable queer utopia conjured by Derek Jarman on the beach at Dungeness to the fertile vision of a common Eden propagated by William Morris, new modes of living can and have been attempted amidst the flower beds, experiments that could prove vital in the coming era of climate change. The result is a humming, glowing tapestry, a beautiful and exacting account of the abundant pleasures and possibilities of gardens: not as a place to hide from the world but as a site of encounter and discovery, bee-loud and pollen-laden.

    Master the art of double knitting to produce reversible, double-layered, multi-coloured knits. In its simplest form, double knitting is a form of colour work that creates a dual-layered, two-sided fabric, without there being an unattractive or float-ridden 'wrong side'. It is therefore different to any other knitting technique and can mystify novices and experienced knitters alike. Demystifying Double Knitting takes the mystery out of the process with step-by-step explanations of the key techniques, illustrated with detailed photographs. Once the fundamentals are mastered, you can then learn to move beyond basic stocking stitch and introduce texture, shaping and even non-mirrored designs to your work. Whether you're new to the technique or simply want to understand it better, this book offers an accessible introduction to double knitting and a celebration of the creative opportunities it offers.
