This book, the nature of mountains, is poetry of the natural world where something meaningful bodies forth. The mountains are a source point that allow this to occur; this can be found in the city as well if we know how to release and go there. These poems cover leaving, dimension, your mountain, yosemite journal, and Adventures in Weather. Many years working and living in Yosemite National Park by the author help give much to this poetry. Some of these poems were presented at the Yosemite Centennial Celebration Concert in The Great Lounge of the Ahwahnee Hotel, September 2, 1990, sponsored by the National Park Service. All of us at one time or another find the pull to the mountains overwhelming, poets cannot help but draw inspiration and are compelled to write. Here is one such collection.

The Hopscotch Man by John A. Homer is the autobiographical life story of England native John Homer, whose thirst for adventure led him from his small home town to the streets of Vienna, through the deserts of Iran, to the mountains of Brazil to the shores of Hawaii and everywhere in between. John relished the challenges that new surroundings created as he spent his life hopscotching from country-to-country and continent-to-continent. With each new square he has learned that life is more than simply a passage of time, as it must be experienced, relished and most of all, enjoyed. John's detailed descriptions of the places he went and the people he met along the way truly bring his story to life. The reader will feel as if they are traveling along with John on his lifetime of adventures.
Quite a number of books have been published about the zapovedniks of Russia (which are strictly protected State nature reserves) but so far most of those books have been scientific. There are very few colourful popular publications, which can be readily understood by a broad readership. The creators of this book have worked hard to make their contribution to fill this gap. The easy, narrative text immerses readers into the world of preserved nature, giving the feeling that they are traveling within those beautiful areas. At the same time one can get to know the history of the zapovedniks, which was often difficult and dramatic. However, it is not enough to merely read about nature. It is also essential for understanding to see that nature. The wonderful photographs of landscape and wildlife, taken by our leading nature photographers, also form a significant and exciting part of this book. The authors and publishers of this book believe that when readers see and understand the beauty of our Russian Nature Reserves - their forests, mountains and tundra; their steppe lands and coastlines - they will feel at one with nature. Realizing its riches, they will want to make their own contribution to the good cause of nature conservation.

There are a very diverse range of views concerning the nature of awareness, perception and experience. In this book John King considers both the nature of the three individual phenomena and the various possible links which could exist between the three phenomena. Some of the main themes covered are the idea that awareness and experience are equivalent, experience without awareness, perception without awareness, sleep and dreaming, panexperientialism, and higher-order monitoring.
Discover and name lots of amazing things you might find in nature, from puffins, snowy owls and acorns to dandelions, butterflies and chipmunks. The book is organised into themed pages, including gardens and parks, grasslands and deserts, in the mountains and under the sea. Great for developing vocabulary and language skills.

"Beyond Nature Writing is a stimulating, challenging, lively, and informative book--an impressive gathering of essays that delineate the expanding boundaries of the emerging field of ecocriticism--that will be of great use to scholars and teachers with an interest in literature and environmental studies." --John Tallmadge, The Union Institute, author of Meeting the Tree of Life: A Teacher's Path"Many of these essays are quite lovely, and John Elder's is worth the price of the volume all by itself."--Bill McKibben, Harvard University, author of The End of Nature
‘We discovered an easy pass to the head of the Ameghino Glacier, and climbed to the summit of a rock peak above it, where for three hours we sat in the warm sun gazing at a magnificent panorama of nameless mountains.’Land of Tempest reveals Shipton at his best – writing with enthusiasm and humour about his explorations in Patagonia in the 1950s and 1960s. He is an astute observer of nature and the human spirit, and this account of his travels is infused with with his own zest for discovery and the joy of camaraderie. Undaunted by hardship or by injury, Shipton and his team attempt to cross one of the great ice caps in Patagonia. It’s impossible not to marvel at his determination, resilience and appetite for travel and adventure, be it climbing snow-clad mountains, or walking in forested foothills. Shipton takes a reader with him on his travels, and the often-inhospitable places he visits are a stark contrast to the warmth of the people he encounters.Land of Tempest is essential reading for anyone who loves nature, mountains, climbing, adventure or simply the joy of discovering unknown places.
