Ninety Degrees North: The Quest for the North Pole

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Fleming, Fergus, PUBLISHER: Grove/Atlantic, Fleming relates the epic story of the men who stopped at nothing to unravel the mysteries of the North Pole. In the nineteenth century, theories about the North Pole ran rampant. Was it an open sea? Was it a portal to new worlds within the globe? Or was it just a wilderness of ice? When Sir John Franklin disappeared in the Arctic in , explorers decided it was time to find out. In scintillating detail, Ninety Degrees North tells of the vying governments and fantastic eccentrics who, despite their heroic failures, often achieved massive celebrity as they battled shipwreck, starvation, and sickness to reach the top of the world. Drawing on unpublished archives and long-forgotten journals, this is a riveting saga of humankind's search for the ultimate goal.

Farther Along

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Harington, Donald, PUBLISHER: Toby Press, He wants to get away from it all. Despite a satisfying career as chief curator of a museum devoted to the vanished American past, he finds he himself wants to vanish. So with the help of a book on the life and culture of a vanished tribe of Indians known as Bluffdwellers, he takes up residence in the wilderness of the Ozark mountians, with only a dog for company and only an atlatl - a primative spear thrower - to provide him with his supper. His few amusements are the playing of tunes on a hair-comb-and-tissue and writing what he intends to be an indictment of modern civilization in his journals. He makes the aquaintance of a young moonshiner who keeps him supplied abundantly with corn liquor. But after six years of this life he realizes that what he is trying to get away from is himself.

Sacred Hunger

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Unsworth, Barry, PUBLISHER: Penguin Books Ltd, Sacred Hunger is a stunning and engrossing exploration of power, domination, and greed. Filled with the "sacred hunger" to expand its empire and its profits, England entered full into the slave trade and spread the trade throughout its colonies. In this Booker Prize-winning work, Barry Unsworth follows the failing fortunes of William Kemp, a merchant pinning his last chance to a slave ship; his son who needs a fortune because he is in love with an upper-class woman; and his nephew who sails on the ship as its doctor because he has lost all he has loved. The voyage meets its demise when disease spreads among the slaves and the captain's drastic response provokes a mutiny. Joining together, the sailors and the slaves set up a secret, utopian society in the wilderness of Florida, only to await the vengeance of the single-minded, young Kemp.

This uniquely designed double foldout book features over 50 color plates of Paiement's fascinating work along with an interview by Laguna Art Museum's Chief Curator Tyler Stallings and essays by renowned art writers Christopher Miles and Rebecca Neiderlander. Paiement's luminous paintings, of bugs and ordinary consumer products, combine the worlds of art, commodification, science fiction, and entomology with humor and wry social commentary. Utilizing traditional egg tempera and watercolor, Paiement delicately creates day-glo fantasy specimens isolated on pristine white backgrounds. According to Christopher Miles, "Color becomes key as Paiement desaturates the images and overlays them with even layers of transparent color, as if we see black-and-white images through tinted glass that neutralizes difference." Paiement has been exhibited extensively with his work continually garnering broader att

Malamute femmina adulta

Cercasi una nuova casa e una famiglia che possa prendersi cura di questa splendida alaskan malamute di 4 anni. Intelligente, furba e comunicativa, dal carattere a tratti forte come qualsiasi malamute che si rispetti, sa però essere anche dolcissima, giocosa e si affeziona velocemente alle persone con le quali crea un forte legame di dipendenza. Nonostante vada d'accordo con cani maschi e occasionalmente anche con femmine è più adatta a una vita in cui lei è l'unica al centro dell'attenzione della famiglia. Non è abituata a gatti o altri animali. Perfettamente in salute ed esente da malattie genetiche (testata ufficialmente per displasia anche e gomiti). Abituata a vivere all'esterno, cerco preferibilmente una sistemazione con giardino recintato, nonostante si abituerebbe velocemente a una vita dentro casa a stretto contatto col nucleo familiare. Non è sterilizzata. Mi occuperò io stesso di tutte le pratiche burocratiche (passaggio di proprietà e pedigree).

Historic Sullivan: Sullivan County, Tennessee

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Taylor, Oliver, PUBLISHER: Overmountain Press, Oliver Taylor's book (just as he wrote it) remains the single most important work on the history of Sullivan County, Tennessee. This reprint has the added value of a name index. The first nineteen chapters deal with early activities in the Holston Valley, starting with the Cherokee settlements. Taylor records the history of the area with a sympathetic account of the Cherokee's plight. At the same time he tells of the brave frontier men and women and their constant battles with the Indians, recording the hardship of early citizens such as John Donelson and those who made the perilous river voyage with him. He tells of Isaac Shelby and the Wataugans, as they tried to subdue the Holston Valley wilderness, and the unconquerable spirit of those who attempted to start the State of Franklin. His admiration for East Tennessee's early pioneers is evident, and he has scattered biographies of the Sullivan County "Makers of History" throughout the book. Included in the latter half of this volume are chapters devoted to early industries, the church, agriculture, methods of travel and message transmission (including early post offices), the newspaper and politics, and some interesting "Odds and Ends".

Nature of America

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Fortney, Bill / Kuralt, Charles / Middleton, David, PUBLISHER: Amphoto Books, Awe-inspiring landscapes and wildlife fill this treasure trove of North America's natural wonders. This dazzling book captures for the first time in a single volume the astonishing range of ecological diversity stretching across the United States, Canada, and northern Mexico. Recorded on film by 32 of today's greatest nature photographers -- including Frans Lanting, Galen Rowell, David Muench, John Shaw, and Art Wolfe -- America's rich natural heritage includes many of the world's most glorious wilderness regions and refuges. Seen from compelling new perspectives, these areas encompass the famous national parks and lesser-known but equally magical places. Accompanying all the magnificent photographs, which have not been enhanced or manipulated in any way, are brief natural history notes, highlighting what is unique about the scene depicted. Most notable about this book are its images of great open spaces, soaring mountains, rivers, tundra, and seacoasts: poetic and elucidating commentary written from a naturalist's point of view; 220 stunning, full-color photographs: a calendar providing the best dates for visiting and photographing various regions; and the insightful foreword by Charles Kuralt.

Furs and Frontiers in the Far North: The Contest Among

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bockstoce, John R. / Fernandez-Armesto, Felipe, PUBLISHER: Yale University Press, This comprehensive history of the native and maritime fur trade in Alaska during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries is without precedent. The Bering Strait formed the nexus of the circumpolar fur trade in which Russians, British, Americans, and members of fifty native nations competed and cooperated. The desire to dominate the fur trade fed the European expansion into the most remote regions of Asia and America and was an agent of massive change in these regions. Award-winning author John R. Bockstoce fills a major gap in the historiography of the area in covering the scientific, commercial, and foreign-relations implications of the northern fur trade. In addition, the book provides rare insight into the relationship between the Western powers and the Native Americans who provided them with fur, ivory, and whalebone in exchange for manufactured goods, tobacco, tea, alcohol, and hundreds of other things. But this is also the story of the enterprising individuals who energized the Alaskan fur trade and, in doing so, forever altered the region's history.

The Hobbit An Unexpected Journey Replica 1/4 Rivendell

Though his home was a sanctuary dedicated to the dream of peace and the sharing of knowledge, Lord Elrond nevertheless garrisoned the Elf haven of Rivendell with keen warriors. Many were the enemies of the free folk of Middle-earth.Built into a hidden valley and warded with Elvish magic, Rivendell sat nonetheless upon the doorstep of the Misty Mountains, near Troll-infested wilderness and beneath the shadow on Angmar in the north.Immortal beings, Elves had countless years to devote to the mastery of lore, craft, or swordplay. Though Elrond,s men at arms stood like serene sentinels at the entrances to the Last Homely House, they were swift-limbed and deadly soldiers, sometimes ranging the borders of the realm with their lord on horseback.Long cloaks and shining armour they had, with tall, crested helms fashioned after those worn by the Elven King Gil-galad,s army of the Second Age. Delicate floral patterns wove themselves around the bowl of the helm and up to meet on the bladed crest, while upon the nose guard they bore the sigil of Lord Elrond, a dome of stars.Each 1:4 scale Helm is made from polystone and comes in an edition of just 750.Product Size: 6 x 11 x 17 cm

Time Bandit: Two Brothers, the Bering Sea, and One of the

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hillstrand, Johnathan / Hillstrand, Andy / MacPherson, Malcolm, PUBLISHER: Ballantine Books, Every Alaskan king crab season, brothers Andy and Johnathan Hillstrand risk their lives and seek their fortunes upon the treacherous waters of the Bering Sea. Sons of a hard-bitten, highly successful fisherman, and born with brine in their blood, the Hillstrand boys couldn't imagine a life without a swaying deck underfoot and a harvest of mighty king crabs waiting to be pulled from the ocean floor. In pursuit of their daily catch, the brothers brave ice floes and heaving waves sixty feet high, the perils of thousand-pound steel traps thrown about by the punishing wind, and the constant menace of the open, hungry water--epitomized in the chorus of a haunting sailors' sing-along: "Many brave hearts are asleep in the deep, so beware, beware." By turns raucous and reflective, exhilarating and anguished, enthralling, suspenseful, and wise, Time Bandit chronicles a larger-than-life love affair as old as civilization itself--a love affair between striving, willful man and inscrutable, enduring nature.

A Natural History of Nature Writing

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Stewart, Frank, PUBLISHER: Island Press, "A Natural History of Nature Writing" is a penetrating overview of the origins and development of a uniquely American literature. Essayist and poet Frank Stewart describes in rich and compelling prose the lives and works of the most prominent American nature writers of the19th and 20th centuries, including: Henry D. Thoreau, the father of American nature writing. John Burroughs, a schoolteacher and failed businessman who found his calling as a writer and elevated the nature essay to a loved and respected literary form. John Muir, founder of Sierra Club, who celebrated the wilderness of the Far West as few before him had. Aldo Leopold, a Forest Service employee and scholar who extended our moral responsibility to include all animals and plants. Rachel Carson, a scientist who raised the consciousness of the nation by revealing the catastrophic effects of human intervention on the Earth's living systems. Edward Abbey, an outspoken activist who charted the boundaries of ecological responsibility and pushed these boundaries to political extremes. Stewart highlights the controversies ignited by the powerful and eloquent prose of these and other writers with their expansive - and often strongly political - points of view. Combining a deeply-felt sense of wonder at the beauty surrounding us with a rare ability to capture and explain the meaning of that beauty, nature writers have had a profound effect on American culture and politics. "A Natural History of Nature Writing" is an insightful examination of an important body of American literature.
