Sinossi

In "Frozen Waters: An Arctic Expedition," renowned explorer and scientist Dr. Emily Carter embarks on an exhilarating journey to the heart of the Arctic, a realm of ice, snow, and captivating beauty. Join Dr. Carter and her team of intrepid researchers aboard the sturdy research vessel, "Polaris," as they navigate treacherous waters and venture into uncharted territories.

Their mission is to unravel the enigma of the Arctic ice, to understand its intricate relationship with climate change, and to uncover the hidden treasures of this pristine wilderness. As they venture deeper into the Arctic, they encounter a symphony of sights, sounds, and sensations that challenge their preconceptions and redefine their understanding of nature's power.

From the towering icebergs that guard the Arctic's entrance to the hidden fjords that reveal ancient secrets, every moment in this frozen realm is a testament to the resilience of life and the fragility of our planet. They encounter polar bears, majestic creatures that roam the ice floes, and witness the graceful dance of whales, their songs echoing through the icy waters.

But their journey is not without its challenges. Unpredictable weather, shifting ice conditions, and the ever-present threat of danger await them at every turn. Yet, amidst the risks, they find solace in the camaraderie of their fellow explorers, united by a shared passion for discovery and a deep respect for the Arctic's majesty.

As they navigate the frozen waters, Dr. Carter and her team delve into the scientific mysteries that have captivated researchers for generations. They explore the intricate relationship between the Arctic ice and climate change, witnessing firsthand the dramatic effects of a warming planet. Through their research, they uncover hidden truths about the Arctic's past, present, and future, gaining a deeper understanding of its role in the global ecosystem.

"Frozen Waters: An Arctic Expedition" is a gripping narrative that combines scientific exploration, personal adventure, and stunning photography to create a vivid portrait of the Arctic's beauty, fragility, and importance. It is a compelling read for anyone interested in the Arctic, climate change, or the indomitable spirit of human exploration.

    Windswept: Life Nature and Deep...

    ‘Windswept is a wonderful work, prose painted in bold, bright strokes like a Scottish Colourist's canvas’ ROBERT MACFARLANE 
    ‘An instant classic of British nature-writing’ SUNDAY TELEGRAPH 
    A few years ago, Annie Worsley traded a busy life in academia to take on a small-holding or croft on the west coast of Scotland. It is a land ruled by great elemental forces – light, wind and water – that hold sway over how land forms, where the sea sits and what grows. Windswept explores what it means to live in this rugged, awe-inspiring place of unquenchable spirit and wild weather. 
    Walk with Annie as she lays quartz stones in the river to reflect the moonlight and attract salmon, as she watches otters play tag across the beach, as she is awoken by the feral bellowing of stags. Travel back in time to the epic story of how Scotland’s valleys were carved by glaciers, rivers scythed paths through mountains, how the earliest people found a way of life in the Highlands – and how she then found a home there millennia later. 
    With stunning imagery and lyrical prose, Windswept evokes a place where nature reigns supreme and humans must learn to adapt. It is her paean to a beloved place, one richer with colour, sound and life than perhaps anywhere else in the UK. 
    Annie Worsley's Windswept is a top-tier memoir that intertwines personal narratives with the history of Britain's ecosystems. Her commitment to environmental conservation and habitat protection is evident throughout, making this autobiography a must-read for those interested in European non-fiction. 
    For fans of Raynor Winn (Landlines), Sharon Blackie (The Enchanted Life), John Lewis-Stempel (England), Will Millard (The Way of the Hermit), and John D Burns (Wild Winter).

    The Black Death - Plague and...

    The story of the Black Death begins long before it reached the shores of Europe. At the heart of the devastation was a bacterium called Yersinia pestis, the microorganism responsible for one of the deadliest pandemics in human history. This pathogen is believed to have originated in the arid plains of Central Asia, where it lived in a natural reservoir within rodent populations, particularly marmots. These animals, though mostly isolated in remote areas, became the starting point for a chain of transmission that would eventually span continents. 
    Early outbreaks of plague-like illnesses were recorded in China and other parts of Asia as early as the 13th century, suggesting that the bacterium was already circulating in the region. However, it was the growing network of trade routes, especially the Silk Road, that allowed the disease to move rapidly from one community to another. Merchants, caravans, and travelers unknowingly carried infected fleas and rats from one trading hub to the next, creating a direct path for the disease to follow. 
    One of the most significant early episodes linked to the Black Death's arrival in Europe occurred during the Mongol siege of the Crimean city of Caffa (modern-day Feodosiya) in 1346. According to some historical accounts, the Mongols, after suffering an outbreak in their own ranks, used the infected corpses of their dead as biological weapons by catapulting them over the city walls. While the historical accuracy of this account is debated, it symbolizes the critical role Caffa played as a point of transmission. From this port city, fleeing Genoese merchants are believed to have carried the disease back to Italy by ship, bringing the plague directly into European trading centers.

    English/Canadian indie musician Tamara Williamson offers an unbridled account of a life in the world of horses. 
    From her first clever little bay pony, Stroller, to brilliant ribbon-winning Fletcher, Tamara Williamson recalls the many significant horses in her life, grappling with what it means to be horse-obsessed and what drives this desire to connect with horses. As Williamson discovers, during the tumultuous years of relationships with people and horses, these complicated equine creatures reflect back to us our best and worst selves. 
    Woven throughout the stories of individual horses in Williamson’s life is her own story of a creative, chaotic, challenging and adventurous life. Raised by an eccentric family, with a distant mother who disappeared into alcoholism and a charismatic father who left one sunny morning with a younger woman, Williamson struggles with dyslexia and a sense of increasing detachment. Horses, and the exacting sport of dressage, provide her with opportunities to connect, sometimes imperfectly. Her drive for accomplishment in equestrian sports, whether as a trainer or a rider, is regularly at odds with the fear that lingers from a traumatic childhood riding accident. 
    While reckoning with the financial and psychological expense of training and competition, and with the multitude of industries that benefit from horses, Williamson never loses sight of the enormous burden of responsibility she feels toward horses and the respect she has for their individual characters, memories and instincts. On the surface, The Mirror Horse is a book about horses—but beyond the bridles and braided manes, Williamson crafts a complex story about courage, family, and the unexpected places where we find a reflection of our souls: As a rider you can confuse yourself with being the teacher, but horses are constantly showing us something important. They are holding up a mirror.
