Sinossi

"Parks of Africa" explores the crucial role African national parks play in wildlife conservation, biodiversity, and overall ecological health. It highlights how these parks, home to iconic species such as lions and elephants, are vital ecosystems facing threats like poaching and habitat loss, impacting not only the wildlife but also the socio-economic stability of local communities. Did you know that successful conservation often hinges on integrating local communities into the protective process; or that climate change significantly alters wildlife migration patterns? The book examines the historical context of these parks, from colonial origins to today's community-based approaches, and it emphasizes the need for integrated conservation strategies that balance ecological integrity with the socio-economic needs of local populations. Through real-world examples and case studies, it demonstrates how collaborative efforts can lead to sustainable conservation outcomes. It progresses from establishing foundational concepts to examining specific challenges and culminates in discussing potential solutions and innovative conservation models. What sets this book apart is its integrated approach, connecting ecological, economic, and social factors. By highlighting successes and lessons learned from parks across Africa, "Parks of Africa" provides a nuanced perspective useful for conservationists, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding and protecting Africa's natural heritage.

    In the midst of her darkest days, Bunmi began writing down her deepest fears, hopes, dreams, and frustrations with God in the form of letters. The result of Bunmi's soul-searching journey is Dear God, a collection of funny, heartbreaking, and deeply insightful prayers that put words to the emotions we all feel as we grapple with this broken world and search for divine love. 
    With the same gutsy and poetic honesty that has already charmed readers around the world, Bunmi now shares these moving, intimate conversations with God--prayers and poems that chart her story of reconnecting with the God she loved, lost, and found once again.

Wittily fresh and stunningly relatable, she exquisitely shares the painfully honest questions she's asked along the way, including:God, what is holiness?God, how can it be worth it to love life when it could slip away at any moment?God, what do I do when forgiveness feels impossible?God, I know you love me, but do you like me? 
    This poignant collection of prayers is a timely reminder that even when we wander, God never leaves our side.

    Along Lake Michigan - Shipwreck...

    The Great Lakes are graveyards of a vast number of shipwrecks (30,000 by some estimates), and Lake Michigan has more than the other four lakes combined. The stories of those wrecks tell the history of that mighty lake in its endless, mercurial challenge to human endeavor. 
     
     
     
    Michael Schumacher charts the course of shipping disasters great and small on Lake Michigan. He illuminates the details of maritime weather and shipcraft, the lives devoted to and lost on the water, and the mistakes and monumental failures that led to these ships' watery ends. 
     
     
     
    Here are tragic tales like that of the Eastland, the deadliest shipwreck in Great Lakes history, lost while docked in the Chicago River; the Rouse Simmons, a wooden schooner loaded with Christmas trees; the train ferry Milwaukee and the Wisconsin, a package freighter, gone within one week of each other in October 1929; and the passenger vessel the Lady Elgin, a devastating loss met with incredible heroism. 
     
    The stories of these shipwrecks, spanning a full century of commercial traffic on Lake Michigan, document the myriad forms of bravery and misfortune that mark our encounters with the Great Lakes.
