  'Fantastic' – James O'Brien 
  The brilliant mind behind the Secret Tory presents 14 years of Tory rule – as told by William Shakespeare 
  'O, for a muse of fire that would ascend 
  The brightest heaven of pretention! 
  A kingdom for a stage, Tories to act, 
  Oligarchs to behold the swelling scene!’ 
  So begins The Tories: A Tragedy. In this brilliant new work of political satire, Henry Morris presents fourteen years of Conservative (mis)rule in the only form in which such misfortunes could be portrayed: as a Shakespearean play. 
  In five acts that take in five prime ministers, The Tories: A Tragedy is a captivatingly realised Jacobean tragedy, replete with Machiavellian manoeuvrings, hilarious mechanicals and poignant verse. Publishing in the shadow of the most significant election since the Tories came to power in 2010, this exhilarating, original book is an alternative history of a disastrous reign – a drama that will appeal to those who love Shakespeare, comedy, Shakespeare’s comedies, and those who simply love to laugh at the Tory party. 
  In The Tories: A Tragedy, Morris uses his expertise in arts, theatre, and playwriting to create a humorous and poignant portrayal of conservatism. This non-fiction novel is a must-read for anyone interested in politics, ideologies, and the process of performing. 
  For fans of Robert Jobson (Diana), Hugo Vickers (Malice in Wonderland), Anne Glenconner (Whatever Next?), Rory Stewart (The Marches), and The Secret Barrister (Nothing But The Truth).

  You have finally booked, or almost booked, an Alaska cruise, and now the questions pile up. Inside Passage or Gulf of Alaska? Round trip from Seattle or one way into Anchorage? Which side of the ship faces the glacier, and is that whale watching tour really worth what the cruise line is asking?
  
  This audiobook walks you through each decision the way a well traveled friend would, with opinions and price ranges instead of brochure language. Each port chapter for Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, Sitka and Glacier Bay opens with a short scene from the dock, then gets practical. You hear which shore excursions earn their price, how to do the same outing independently for far less, how locals get around town, and how to sidestep the onboard upsells. Every chapter closes with a spoken perfect port day and a thirty second recap you can hold in your head.
  
  By the last chapter, including a candid look at adding Denali land days, you will know exactly what to book, what to skip and where to stand when the ice starts calving. Press play before you commit a single dollar.

  The Nature of Desert Nature -...

  Gary Paul Nabhan

  In this refreshing collection, one of our best writers on desert places, Gary Paul Nabhan, challenges traditional notions of the desert. Beautiful, reflective, and at times humorous, Nabhan's extended essay also called "The Nature of Desert Nature" reveals the complexity of what a desert is and can be. He passionately writes about what it is like to visit a desert and what living in a desert looks like when viewed through a new frame, turning age-old notions of the desert on their heads. 
   
   
   
  Nabhan invites a prism of voices—friends, colleagues, and advisors from his more than four decades of study of deserts—to bring their own perspectives. Scientists, artists, desert contemplatives, poets, and writers bring the desert into view and investigate why these places compel us to walk through their sands and beneath their cacti and acacia. We observe the spines and spears, stings and songs of the desert anew. Unexpected. Surprising. Enchanting. Like the desert itself, each essay offers renewed vocabulary and thoughtful perceptions. 
   
   
   
  The desert inspires wonder. Attending to history, culture, science, and spirit, The Nature of Desert Nature celebrates the bounty and the significance of desert places.
