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The result is this beautiful, previously unpublished book of all her accurate and informative illustrations, painted over a period of 45 years.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.

Описание: In the tradition of A Civil Action--this true story of a North Carolina outdoorsman who teams up with his Appalachian neighbors to save treasured land from being destroyed will "make you want to head for the mountains" (Raleigh News & Observer).

LIVING ALONE IN HIS WOODED MOUNTAIN RETREAT, Jay Leutze gets a call from a whip-smart fourteen-year-old, Ashley Cook, and her aunt, Ollie Cox, who say a local mining company is intent on tearing down Belview Mountain, the towering peak above their house. Ashley and her family, who live in a little spot known locally as Dog Town, are "mountain people," with a way of life and speech unique to their home high in the Appalachians. They suspect the mining company is violating North Carolina's mining law, and they want Jay, a nonpracticing attorney, to stop the destruction of the mountain. Jay, a devoted naturalist and fisherman, quickly decides to join their cause.

So begins the epic quest of "the Dog Town Bunch," a battle that involves fiery public hearings, clandestine surveillance of the mine operator's highly questionable activities, ferocious pressure on public officials, and high-stakes legal brinksmanship in the North Carolina court system. Jay helps assemble a talented group of environmental lawyers to contend with the well-funded attorneys protecting the mining company's plan to dynamite Belview Mountain, which happens to sit next to the famous Appalachian Trail, the 2,184- mile national park that stretches from Maine to Georgia. As the mining company continues to level the forest and erect the gigantic crushing plant on the site, Jay's group searches frantically for a way to stop an act of environmental desecration that will destroy a fragile wild place and mar the Appalachian Trail forever.

Описание: Collector's Voices float through our memory's sanctuary. They cast unforgettable stories into the folk art of collecting. It is of course true that the pleasure of collecting is prompted by a delight in possessions. To the knowing collector, such an object lives "the period, the region, the craftsmanship, the former owner." As a collector holds an object in his collection, he seems to be seeing through it into its distant past. Your passionate dialogue with the past becomes your motivation. This kind of collecting must be seen in the light of a pronounced desire to learn and understand more about one's self in the world. To others it is the thrill of discovery, a communication with a distant past, a dream come true. Maybe our motivation is to hold close something from the past that makes us feel better.
