It highlights how the botanical variations of beans and lentils impact flavor and examines the diverse culinary techniques used in soup preparation across different regions.

A Yankee in Canada

Henry David Thoreau

# A Yankee in Canada 
 
What happens when one of America’s most independent thinkers crosses the border and looks back at his own country from the outside? 
 
In *A Yankee in Canada*, Henry David Thoreau recounts his journey from New England into French Canada, traveling through Montreal, Quebec City, the countryside surrounding the St. Lawrence River, and the dramatic landscapes beyond. 
 
With his characteristic wit and sharp eye for contradiction, Thoreau observes French-Canadian customs, Catholic religious life, British military influence, architecture, agriculture, and the rhythms of everyday life. Yet this is far more than a conventional travelogue. 
 
Encountering a society shaped by colonial rule and traditions very different from those of New England, Thoreau reflects on nationality, democracy, freedom, religion, and what it means to be American. His observations move effortlessly between landscape and philosophy, finding larger questions of culture and government in everything from churches and fortifications to farms and village streets. 
 
Based on Thoreau’s 1850 journey and later published in complete form after his death, *A Yankee in Canada* offers a fascinating combination of travel writing, social criticism, humor, and transcendentalist reflection. 
 
Narrated by Ross Billie.

The Danish Secret to Happy Kids...

Helen Russell

What do Vikings know about raising children? Turns out, quite a lot… 
After a decade of living in Denmark and raising a family there, Helen Russell noticed that Nordic children are different. They eat differently. They learn differently. They run, jump and climb out in nature for hours a day, even though the weather is terrible and it's dark October to March. And then they grow up to be some of the happiest adults on the planet. Her question was: how? 
In "The Danish Secret to Happy Kids", Russell takes a deep dive into the parenting culture of Denmark and the other Nordic nations, from parental leave policies to school structure, screen time, and the surprising customs that lead to happy, well-adjusted humans. This fascinating peek behind the cultural curtain allows readers a glimpse of another world, where babies sleep outside in their prams up to -20°C and pre-schoolers wield axes. 
Refreshingly funny and unfailingly optimistic about the new generation of humans growing up in the world right now, this is a heart-warming love letter to Russell’s adopted homeland and proof that we could all use a bit more Viking in our lives. 
©2024 Helen Russell (P)2024 Saga Egmont 
Helen Russell is a bestselling author, journalist, speaker and host. Formerly editor of marieclaire.co.uk turned Scandinavia correspondent for the Guardian, her first book, "The Year of Living Danishly", became an international bestseller.

Greek Lands and Letters - Greece...

Francis Greenleaf Allinson

Greece as it was walked and as it was written: Athens, Delphi, Olympia and the islands, with the poets and historians quoted where they belong on the ground. Francis Allinson and his wife travelled the country and taught its literature. The book was written for readers who would never see the places, and it is the best of the pre-war literary guides. Sixty paintings by Frederic Leighton and Claude Lorrain, from harbour dawns to fallen trees, give the Greek scene the same light the text gives its poets.
