Sinopsis

"Rustic Carpentry" presents a rich tapestry of traditional woodworking techniques, emphasizing the intimate connection between craftsmanship and nature. The book elevates the essence of rustic design, merging aesthetic simplicity with time-honored practices to create functional yet artful structures. Engagingly written with a blend of instructional detail and anecdotal narratives, the text navigates the literary landscape of 19th-century craft revivalism, drawing from historical materials while reflecting contemporary philosophies of sustainability and artisanal practices. Compiled by a collective of artisans and scholars, "Rustic Carpentry" serves as a homage to an era when woodworking was not merely a craft but a way of life. Influenced by a growing movement towards craftsmanship and environmentally conscious living, the authors delve into their own experiences in rural settings, showcasing a deep appreciation for the tactile relationship between tools, materials, and the natural environment. Their diverse backgrounds in woodworking, design, and historical research endow the book with both authority and authenticity. This book is a must-read for anyone drawn to the beauty of handcrafted woodwork. Whether you are an aspiring craftsman, a lover of nature, or a scholar of design, "Rustic Carpentry" inspires a renewed appreciation for the artistry of the built environment and invites readers to reconnect with old-world craftsmanship in a modern context.

    Personal Narrative of Travels to...

    In 1799, with extensive travel permissions from the Spanish government, Alexander von Humboldt and the botanist Aimé Bonpland departed for the Americas on a journey of exploration that would last well into 1804. In writing the “Personal Narrative…”, von Humboldt combined a description of the places and people of their travels with diverse scientific observations; but particularly of plants and animals, geology, weather and astronomy. von Humboldt’s narrative (and Thomasina Ross’s translation) of their adventures is marvelously well written and at times poetically descriptive. Volume I of the “Personal Narrative….”, covers their preparations, departure from Spain, and their travels to the Canary Islands, Tobago, Cumana and vicinity, and Caracas and vicinity in Venezuela.Alexander von Humboldt was a member of the Prussian aristocracy. He was well educated and as a young man worked as an inspector of mines. After receiving an inheritance from his Mother, he was able to follow his desire to explore and follow scientific pursuits, and was sufficiently wealthy to equip and fund his scientific expeditions. Although not a household name today (unless you live in one of the 18 places named after him), von Humboldt was the best known naturalist of his day, and his published observations and interpretations have a very important place in the history of science. For example, he strongly influenced Charles Darwin. He aimed to find the universal principles that integrate all aspects of nature (the Unity of Nature) rather than to just describe and as such is considered to be the founder of biogeography; and he is recognized as being among the first to describe the effect of human activity on climate.(written by Gail Timmerman-Vaughan)

    Cathy Yandell's The French Art of Living Well is a delightful look at French culture, from literature to cuisine to humor and more, showing how the French have captured that magic elixir known as joie de vivre. 
     
     
     
    What is joie de vivre, and why is it a fundamentally French concept? 
     
     
     
    In search of those ineffable qualities that make up the joy of living, this lively book takes listeners on a voyage to France through forays into literature, history, and culture. How does art contribute to daily life? Why is cuisine such a central part of French existence? Why are the French more physical than many other cultures? How do French attitudes toward time speak volumes about their sense of pleasure and celebration? And finally, to what extent is this zest for life exportable? These and other questions give way to a dynamic sketch of French life today. 
     
     
     
    Peppered with anecdotes and humor, this book uncovers some of the secrets of the celebrated French art of living well. Drawing from her years of living in France as a student, professor, and mother, Yandell crafts an honest and profound appraisal of French culture and how la joie de vivre can be developed in anyone's life.

    If You Want To Receive A Sufficient Amount Of Safe Proteins And Essential Plant-Based Nutrients, Then Listen On. 
    You're probably eating plant-based foods, such as pea proteins or nuts, assuming that you're getting the full variety of proteins that your body needs, but you may not realize that you often miss the essential amino acid known as lysine and that you don't assimilate the right amount of proteins. 
    Normally, one of the first questions vegans are asked is how they get protein, because animal foods are considered by many to be the best source of protein— and some people think they are the only protein-containing foods. 
    You must be prepared in advance to ensure that adequate amounts of nutritious proteins, vitamins, iron and calciumB-12 are obtained, not as easily found in vegan diets as in omnivorous diets containing meat rich in these nutrients. 
    Nevertheless, with the best plant-based protein foods, you can eat well-balanced nutritional plans that maintain a healthy body and reduce the risk of certain illnesses. 
    The audiobook will give you a full understanding of nutrition, including how much you really need, and how to get more than enough of plant foods. Armed with the details, recipes and meal plans in this book, you'll be relaxed and safe as a vegan— and have answers to those questions. 
    The audiobook is also for vegetarians and meat eaters, since focusing more on the plant side of your plate is always a good thing, and you might be curious about how healthy your vegan friends can be without food. 
    This audiobook is a plant-based protein guide that gives you the best resources you need to help you eat healthy meatless high-protein foods and feel better about your plant-based lifestyle.
