Ribbon of Wildness - Discovering...

Peter Wright

The Watershed of Scotland is a line that separates east from west; that divides those river basin areas which drain towards the North Sea on the one hand, and those which flow west into the Atlantic Ocean on the other. It's a line that meanders from Peel Fell on the English border all the way to the top at Duncansby Head, near John O'Groats - over 745 miles, through almost every kind of terrain. The Watershed follows the high ground, and offers wide vistas down almost every major river valley, towards towns and communities, into the heartlands of Scotland. Ribbon of Wildness provides a vivid introduction to this geographic and landscape feature, which has hitherto been largely unknown. The rock, bog, forest, moor and mountain are all testament to The Watershed's richly varied natural state. The evolving kaleidoscope of changing vistas, wide panoramas, ever present wildlife, and the vagaries of the weather, are delightfully described on this great journey of discovery. Along the route of the Watershed the general emptiness of the journey will strike the walker all the way, creating a unique, beautiful, spiritual dimension to the walk.

The Trail to Kanjiroba -...

William deBuys

A revitalizing new perspective on Earthcare from Pulitzer Prize finalist William deBuys.In 2016 and 2018 acclaimed author and conservationist William deBuys joined extended medical expeditions into Upper Dolpo, a remote, ethnically Tibetan region of northwestern Nepal, to provide basic medical services to the residents of the region. Having written about climate change and species extinction, deBuys went on those journeys seeking solace. He needed to find a constructive way of living with the discouraging implications of what he had learned about the diminishing chances of reversing the damage humans have done to Earth; he sought a way of holding onto hope in the face of devastating loss. As deBuys describes these journeys through one of Earth's remotest regions, his writing celebrates the land's staggering natural beauty, and treats his listeners to deep dives into two scientific discoveries—the theories of natural selection and plate tectonics—that forever changed human understanding of our planet. Written in a vivid and nuanced style evocative of John McPhee or Peter Matthiessen, The Trail to Kanjiroba offers a surprising and revitalizing new way to think about Earthcare, one that may enable us to continue the difficult work that lies ahead.

Inside the Tortilla - Recipes...

Paul Read

Not all those that wander are lost... 
Under the unforgiving heat of the Spanish sky and in a country scorched by tourism, one man flees the coastal ghettos in search of recipes for living another life. He is accompanied by a chef who can only ever look down and a ghostly hound who can only see beyond everything. Together, though the magnifying glass of one small town, they discover another history of people, culture, climate and some of the most relevant recipes for living in the 21st century. 
Find out why Inside The Tortilla is: "not your typical expat handbook" and why novelist Mark Radcliffe wrote: "I'd recommend this to anyone visiting Spain regardless of whether they are going to discover the country or to turn red near Malaga; at worst it made me feel a more authentic tourist. At best, if helped me see a country." 
And discover:How to live in a Medieval barrioHow to report an amputated handHow to defraud a bankHow to initiate a Cheese Revolution,How to sing to the Toilet Roll King,How to celebrate the history of the tapaHow to employ Passive Activity to learn a languageHow to get a dog from hell off your roof 
"Absolute delight, this book will appeal to all who crave the authentic earthy experience of living in another culture. Funny moving heart-warming, great story, real characters, marvellous hound." 
"Like Spain's most famous dish, Inside the Tortilla is a book that looks simple at first glance, but in reality has much more to it than meets the eye."
