  The sequel nobody wants. After a decade of the Tories, could it get any worse? Spoiler – it does. 
   
  Towards the end of 2021, Britain had been frogmarched into an escalating series of surreal calamities. Brexit was a disaster, the NHS was in crisis, the government was bathed head-to-toe in impropriety, senior Tories were still acting as though the public purse was their personal feed-trough, and the air crackled with anger about PartyGate. All of which led to an inglorious start to 2022: the year the UK saw two monarchs, three prime ministers and four chancellors. 
   
  From Boris Johnson, who crashed our international reputation and handed billions to his mates so they could ineptly fight a pandemic while he stayed at home, shagging and acting as a super-spreader; to Liz Truss, a drive-by prime minister who managed to kill off the queen and crash the economy in a single week. And now we’re led by Rishi Sunak, who doesn’t know how to use a credit card, drives a pretend car, and grinningly promises even more poverty. 
   
  Four Chancellors and a Funeral delivers more of Russell Jones’s signature scathing wit, combining a detailed historical record of 2021 and 2022, with acerbic commentary, all of it leavened by jokes at the seemingly endless maelstrom of failures, nincompoops and hypocrisies.

  In this guide, I would like to give you an insight into keeping, raising and training your horse as a partner. The focus will be on the factor of natural handling. Basic theoretical knowledge will be conveyed with corresponding practical suggestions. Meanwhile, topics such as communication between humans and horses and species-appropriate husbandry will be addressed. Newcomers to the field of riding will gain an extensive insight into the mindset of the four-legged friends and equestrian "know-how". Experienced riders who are already taking their horses to competitions will also find everything they need, from a change of scenery in training to dressage lessons.
  For those working with young horses, the subject of training is dealt with extensively.
  I do not prescribe the "right" or "wrong" way to ride. This guide is merely a recommendation on how to deal with horses in a species-appropriate manner. I want to convey how you can encourage horses without forcing them to do anything unnatural and how you can spend time with them alongside riding.
  The overriding aim of all topics should be the joy of riding and harmony with the horse as a partner.

  William Stanek's Olympic - A...

  The Editors of Our American...

  Olympic refuses to become one landscape.
  
  Mountains rise above Port Angeles. Rivers leave those mountains and enter forests. Rain forests gather water into moss, root, and stream. Roads end at beaches where the Pacific sets the day's terms. The places belong together even when the roads do not.
  
  William Stanek's Olympic helps readers understand that separation. It moves through the peninsula as a series of living travel worlds-high ridges, restored rivers, mountain lakes, temperate rain forests, wild coast, forest corridors, and quieter waters-while protecting the bodily and logistical truths that make Olympic different from a compact park.
  
  The result is a literary field guide about connection, distance, weather, tide, road, water, and choice.
  
  For first-time visitors, families, couples, solo travelers, photographers, walkers, and return travelers, this is Olympic without the checklist: generous, changeable, geographically honest, and best experienced by letting one world own the day.
