Monte Carlo For Vagabonds -...

R.A. Dalkey

When R.A. Dalkey travels cheap, he thinks bigger than hostel dorms, overnight trains and pasta with tomato sauce for every meal. He'll roll out his sleeping bag in Madrid's red light district, nap on the streets of Monaco and furtively string up his hammock on Swiss farms. He'll spontaneously teach English in Laos in exchange for rice. He'll thumb rides anywhere from West Timor to South Africa. He'll try smiling a lot, and see where it takes him. Most of the time it's somewhere good.
As this collection of stories will reveal, it doesn't always go smoothly. Indonesian bush-fires chase him from his campsite. His shoes freeze solid in Siberia. He gets head-butted by an Albanian villager. He's shaken by earthquakes and terrified by witching-hour excavations in Andorran valleys. And, incompetent as ever with ropes, his hammock has a habit of falling down in the middle of the night – with him in it.
Yet he wouldn't have it any other way: travelling Dalkey-style delivers the richest of experiences. And as he shares the adventures few of us would brave, you'll pick up gems about this crazy planet. Do you know which head of state was an Olympic bobsleigh competitor? Or how long your unattended bag will go untouched in Japan? Who's eating all the ice cream in Pyongyang? And how do cats jump in Swedish?
Like that uncle with the rose-tinted specs and a grumpy anarchist student rolled into one, Dalkey turns up his nose at travel insurance and shows there's more than one way to see a world that always steers us to play it safe…

How To Remain Humble: When...

Benjamin Edwards

You are holding a practical guide to humility written for people who prefer their modesty to be effective, repeatable, and difficult to dispute in meetings. 
In How to Remain Humble, Benjamin Edwards lays out a step by step system for appearing grounded while quietly becoming unavoidable. You will learn how to speak less and be quoted more, how to “share” credit in a way that returns with interest, how to apologize with the precision of a locksmith, and how to ask questions that feel supportive right up until the room changes direction. 
This is not a book about shrinking yourself. That would be irresponsible. This is about making other people feel strangely safe while you keep winning, then acting pleasantly surprised when they thank you for it. By the end, you will not merely seem humble. You will be the kind of humble that gets invited back, deferred to, and described as “shockingly down to earth” by people who cannot quite explain what just happened. 
Read it quickly. Apply it casually. Deny everything naturally.

A Pagan Polemic - Reflections on...

Jack Loeffler

A Pagan Polemic curates the evolving perspective of Jack Loeffler—itinerant wanderer, environmental warrior, storyteller, and story collector—whose true education began when he was marched into the Nevada desert one day at dawn to play "The Stars and Stripes Forever" during an atomic bomb test a scant few miles away. Since that day in 1957, Jack's mission in life has been to record peoples of the borderlands and to bring "indigenous mindedness" to the forefront of the conversation about our precarious environments and our decaying planet. A Pagan Polemic is a sweeping manifesto of Jack's core beliefs and long experience as a fierce (and funny) advocate for Nature and Nature-mindedness and against poisonous politics and policies.
