A new edition of a great, underappreciated classic of our time
Beryl Markham's West with the Night is a true classic, a book that deserves the same acclaim and readership as the work of her contemporaries Ernest Hemingway, Antoine de Saint-Exupery, and Isak Dinesen. If the first responsibility of a memoirist is to lead a life worth writing about, Markham succeeded beyond all measure. Born Beryl Clutterbuck in the middle of England, she and her father moved to Kenya when she was a girl, and she grew up with a zebra for a pet; horses for friends; baboons, lions, and gazelles for neighbors. She made money by scouting elephants from a tiny plane. And she would spend most of the rest of her life in East Africa as an adventurer, a racehorse trainer, and an aviatrix--she became the first person to fly nonstop from Europe to America, the first woman to fly solo east to west across the Atlantic. Hers was indisputably a life full of adventure and beauty. And then there is the writing. When Hemingway read Markham's book, he wrote to his editor, Maxwell Perkins: "She has written so well, and marvelously well, that I was completely ashamed of myself as a writer . . . She] can write rings around all of us who consider ourselves as writers . . . It is really a bloody wonderful book." With a new introduction by Sara Wheeler--one of Markham's few legitimate literary heirs--West with the Night should once again take its place as one of the world's great adventure stories.

When her world was first turned upside down at the age of twenty, Liam Dempsey was by her side, but he doesn't occupy that place anymore. After twenty-two years together they have been forced apart by a heartbreaking situation and a powerful enemy.

However, it seems both life and Liam have other plans for her, when she meets an endearing little girl and her family who offer her everything she's ever wanted.
Would it be a betrayal of Liam to accept?
And why is he encouraging her to do just that?
Can life knock you down and pick you up at the same time?

Our usual concern is to improve our environment because all of us value beauty.
We put flowering plants, fences, tables and chairs, swings, garden gnomes, and other items. These and other activities that suppose a particular area to be developed are collectively called landscaping. Most landowners prefer a landscape garden, a kind of landscape that transforms an area into a garden.
Garden owners can do this, but others hire professional landscapers. In both cases, understanding what landscape gardening is can result in the creation of a garden that meets the landowner's aim, needs, or desires. Gardening, meanwhile, is not just about the designs and templates. It is also about how it would be maintained. Moreover, you can add or remove buildings, you can renovate them, you can grow other flowers or trees, or you can do something to enhance your garden continually.
What's nice about landscaping is that you can do your style your way around it. There is no limit to it, and there are no defined rules on what can only be done to your garden.
By choosing organic and natural options to garden with, rather than the synthetic chemical-based fungicides, herbicides, pesticides, and fertilizers, you can benefit the earth and environment. It may seem like a small change, but as people continue to make the change to organic, the beneficial effects will grow, and the earth will gradually heal from the chemicals, we have poisoned it with.
