Book excerpt: This is a photo story of the end of a dream of many of the farmers in Minnesota who's dream it was to have a new dairy barn to house their growing herd of cattle and be able to store a winter's supply of hay inside. These photos try to show how the barns were built and added to, to keep the dream alive. Most were built in the early part of the 20th century, to house cattle on the first floor and hay in their huge hay mows above. Barns are a reminder of our past and are references to our history. These barns stand as to who we were, who we are and what America is all about. These photos are a representative sample of barns across the country with styles varying slightly depending upon differing geographic locations throughout the U.S.--adapted from authors note.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “In today’s ego-techno-centred world, Robert Somerville’s . . . Barn Club approach is a way forward that utilizes local traditions, local materials, and local hands to create a built environment that is more harmonious with the natural world and of course more beautiful.”—Jack A. Sobon, architect, timber framer, and author of Hand Hewn “Somerville knows more about wooden barn construction than almost anyone alive.”—The Telegraph Natural history meets traditional hand craft in this celebration of the elm tree and community spirit. When renowned craftsman Robert Somerville moved to Hertfordshire in southern England, he discovered an unexpected landscape rich with wildlife and elm trees. Nestled within London’s commuter belt, this wooded farmland inspired Somerville, a lifelong woodworker, to revive the ancient tradition of hand-raising barns. Barn Club follows the building of Carley Barn over the course of one year. Volunteers from all walks of life joined Barn Club, inspired to learn this ancient skill of building elm barns by hand, at its own quiet pace and in the company of others, while using timber from the local woods. The tale of the elm tree in its landscape is central to Barn Club. Its natural history, historic importance, and remarkable survival make for a fascinating story. This is a tale of forgotten trees, a local landscape, and an ancient craft. This book includes sixteen pages of color photographs, and black and white line drawings of techniques and traditional timber frame barns feature throughout. Perfect for fans of Norwegian Wood and The Hidden Life of Trees.

This book was released on 2021-02-23 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an invitation to every American. It is not the work of a political party or special interest group. It is a challenge to learn the facts, connect the dots, and think for yourself. Evelyn Cross is an ordinary American. Stories from her life reveal simple truths, such as the fact that dogs and cats can get along in the same house. Can humans? She also highlights how unrestrained anger escalates into violence and abuse. Every abuser blames his victim saying, “If he, or she, hadn’t said, or done this or that; I wouldn’t have needed to kick, punch, beat, or otherwise injure him.” The abuser feels justified. She urges everyone to read the Bible and learn its principles, regardless of personal belief. Why experiment using trial and error? The Bible tells stories of how people throughout history confronted challenges, how good people made bad mistakes, and the consequences they experienced as a result. Gain insights to make life better for yourself, your children, and your community. Ask the right questions. Learn the facts. Build a strong America based on wisdom and truth.

Book Synopsis Why Don't Woodpeckers Get Headaches? by : Mike O'Connor
Download or read book Why Don't Woodpeckers Get Headaches? written by Mike O'Connor and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1983, Mike O'Connor opened the Bird Watcher's General Store on Cape Cod, which might well have been the first store devoted solely to birding in the United States. Since that time he has answered thousands of questions about birds, both at his store and while walking down the aisles of the supermarket. The questions have ranged from inquiries about individual species ("Are flamingos really real?") to what and when to feed birds ("Should I bring in my feeders for the summer?") to the down-and-dirty specifics of backyard birding ("Why are the birds dropping poop in my pool?"). Answering the questions has been easy; keeping a straight face has been hard. Why Don't Woodpeckers Get Headaches? is the solution for the beginning birder who already has a book that explains the slight variation between Common Ground-Doves and Ruddy Ground-Doves but who is really much more interested in why birds sing at 4:30 A.M. instead of 7:00 A.M., or whether it's okay to feed bread to birds, or how birds rediscover your feeders so quickly when you've just filled them after a long vacation. Or, for that matter, whether flamingos are really real.

Book excerpt: BOOKER PRIZE WINNER • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A novel that follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he never much thought about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance: one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single setting, The Sense of an Ending has the psychological and emotional depth and sophistication of Henry James at his best, and is a stunning achievement in Julian Barnes's oeuvre. Tony Webster thought he left his past behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own. But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.
