  The Book Of Earths

  Edna Kenton

  This is a compendium of theories of the shape of the Earth, along with a great deal of 'Earth Mystery' lore. Richly illustrated, the Book of Earths includes many unusual theories, including Columbus' idea that the Earth is literally pear-shaped, modern theories that the Earth was originally tetrahedral, and so on. Kenton also covers many traditional theories including the ancient Babylonians and Egyptians, Hindu and Buddhist cosmology, and those of the Peruvians, Aztecs and Mongols. She also discusses modern alternative theories such as that of Reed and Koresh. Strangely enough, she misses or ignores the modern flat earth theory of Rowbotham. This is the only apparent omission in this definitive study. Kenton has no apparent axe to grind: this is simply a very readable survey of the literature if you have any interest in 'Earth mysteries"

  Mountaineering On The Pacific

  In the summer of 1868, English mountaineer Edmund T. Coleman set out into the rugged wilderness of Washington Territory with a singular goal: to reach the summit of Mount Baker, one of the great snow-covered volcanoes of the Pacific Northwest. 
  After two unsuccessful attempts, Coleman returned with a small expedition party and traveled by canoe and on foot through the remote country surrounding the Nooksack River. Guided by the landscape and aided by local Nooksack guides, the climbers pushed deep into the mountains, carrying provisions and equipment through forests, glaciers, snowfields, and increasingly difficult terrain. 
  On August 17, 1868, Coleman and his companions reached the summit of Mount Baker. Their route across vast fields of snow and treacherous crevasses brought them into a landscape few outsiders had ever witnessed, and their successful climb became one of the landmark achievements of early mountaineering in the American West. 
  First published in Harper’s New Monthly Magazine in 1869, Mountaineering on the Pacific is Coleman’s firsthand account of the expedition. Part adventure narrative, part travel writing, and part historical record, it offers a vivid glimpse into the challenges, landscapes, and spirit of nineteenth-century exploration in the Pacific Northwest. 
  Journey with Coleman into a world of glaciers, forests, rivers, and towering volcanic peaks—and experience the remarkable story of one of the earliest major mountaineering expeditions in the American West.

  When we go for a walk, whether in the countryside or city, we pass through landscapes full of natural beauty and curiosities both visible and invisible - but though we might admire the view, or wonder idly about the name of a flower, we rarely have the knowledge to fully engage with what we see. When we do, our sense of place is expanded, our understanding deepened and we can discover richness in even the most everyday stroll. 
   
  John Wright has been leading forays around Britain for decades. As an expert forager, he shows people how to identify the edible species that abound - but he also reveals the natural history, stories and science behind our surroundings. Here, he takes us with him on eight walks: from verdant forests to wild coastlines, via city pavements, fields and rolling hills, he illuminates what can be found on a walk across any British terrain, and how you might observe and truly understand them, for yourself.
