Описание: Margaret Erskine Wilson, late President of Kendal Natural History Society, was a keen amateur botanist and water-colourist. In 1999, she donated to the Society 150 sheets of water-colour paintings representing a thousand British and Irish plants in flower and in fruit, painted in situ over many years and in various places.
At the time she donated the paintings to Kendal Natural History Society, she wrote: Begun in 1943/4 for a friend who said, 'I might learn the names of flowers if you drew them for me, in the months they're in flower'!
The result is this beautiful, previously unpublished book of all her accurate and informative illustrations, painted over a period of 45 years.
Over a thousand British and Irish flowers are represented in this book and it still today serves Margaret Erskine Wilson's original purpose -- it is an easy way to learn the names of our delicate and beautiful wild flowers.

"The first modern thriller."--Ken Follett
The Riddle of the Sands follows Charles Carruthers, a minor official in the British foreign office, and his friend from his Oxford days, Arthur Davies, as a sailing holiday quickly takes a dangerous turn. Sailing the Frisian Islands, the two unravel a plot by the Germans to invade England. Sharply prescient, this 1903 novel accurately predicted the threat posed by Germany in WWII, which would not materialize until years after Childers' death. The novel remains a classic in its artfulness and attentiveness to the craft of sailing as well as its part in the formation of the thriller as a literary genre.

Описание: While on a sailing trip in the Baltic Sea, two young adventurers-turned-spies uncover a secret German plot to invade England. Written by Childers who served in the Royal Navy during World War I as a wake-up call to the British government to attend to its North Sea defenses, "The Riddle of the Sands" accomplished that task and has been considered a classic of espionage literature ever since, praised as much for its nautical action as for its suspenseful spycraft."
