Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Playing the Farmer reinvigorates our understanding of Vergil’s Georgics, a vibrant work written by Rome’s premier epic poet shortly before he began the Aeneid. Setting the Georgics in the social context of its day, Philip Thibodeau for the first time connects the poem’s idyllic, and idealized, portrait of rustic life and agriculture with changing attitudes toward the countryside in late Republican and early Imperial Rome. He argues that what has been seen as a straightforward poem about agriculture is in fact an enchanting work of fantasy that elevated, and sometimes whitewashed, the realities of country life. Drawing from a wide range of sources, Thibodeau shows how Vergil’s poem reshaped agrarian ideals in its own time, and how it influenced Roman poets, philosophers, agronomists, and orators. Playing the Farmer brings a fresh perspective to a work that was praised by Dryden as "the best poem by the best poet."

Book excerpt: An approachable, comprehensive guide to the modern world of vegetables, from the leading grower of specialty vegetables in the country Near the shores of Lake Erie is a family-owned farm with a humble origin story that has become the most renowned specialty vegetable grower in America. After losing their farm in the early 1980s, a chance encounter with a French-trained chef at their farmers' market stand led the Jones family to remake their business and learn to grow unique ingredients that were considered exotic at the time, like microgreens and squash blossoms. They soon discovered chefs across the country were hungry for these prized ingredients, from Thomas Keller in Napa Valley to Daniel Boulud in New York City. Today, they provide exquisite vegetables for restaurants and home cooks across the country. The Chef's Garden grows and harvests with the notion that every part of the plant offers something unique for the plate. From a perfect-tasting carrot, to a tiny red royal turnip, to a pencil lead-thin cucumber still attached to its blossom, The Chef's Garden is constantly innovating to grow vegetables sustainably and with maximum flavor. It's a Willy Wonka factory for vegetables. In this guide and cookbook, The Chef's Garden, led by Farmer Lee Jones, shares with readers the wealth of knowledge they've amassed on how to select, prepare, and cook vegetables. Featuring more than 500 entries, from herbs, to edible flowers, to varieties of commonly known and not-so-common produce, this book will be a new bible for farmers' market shoppers and home cooks. With 100 recipes created by the head chef at The Chef's Garden Culinary Vegetable Institute, readers will learn innovative techniques to transform vegetables in their kitchens with dishes such as Ramp Top Pasta, Seared Rack of Brussels Sprouts, and Cornbread-Stuffed Zucchini Blossoms, and even sweet concoctions like Onion Caramel and Beet Marshmallows. The future of cuisine is vegetables, and Jones and The Chef's Garden are on the forefront of this revolution.

Book excerpt: A vital part of daily life in the nineteenth century, games and play were so familiar and so ubiquitous that their presence over time became almost invisible. Technological advances during the century allowed for easier manufacturing and distribution of board games and books about games, and the changing economic conditions created a larger market for them as well as more time in which to play them. These changing conditions not only made games more profitable, but they also increased the influence of games on many facets of culture. Playing Games in Nineteenth-Century Britain and America focuses on the material and visual culture of both American and British games, examining how cultures of play intersect with evolving gender norms, economic structures, scientific discourses, social movements, and nationalist sentiments.

The “Let's play with words” collection gathers illustrated ebooks for children, which aim to make them learn essential words on varied topics. EXTRACT The chickens in the farmyard peck at grains. The cockerel wakes up everyone on the farm in the morning by crowing. The chicken family sleeps in the hen house during the nights, where it keeps safe from foxes. They love to snack on a chunky chicken. The farmer's wife gathers the eggs that the hens have laid. When the hen sits on the eggs, we say that she is hatching them. After three weeks, chicks hatch from the eggs. ABOUT THE COLLECTION "Let's play with words" is a fun collection of e-books that promotes literacy and vocabulary acquisition on popular subjects taken from the world around us. Each book includes several short chapters on the subject at hand aimed at learning specific words through pictures, and includes the fully written texts as a guide at the back. For more advanced practice, young readers can also make up their own stories by following the pictures only, in such a way consolidating their vocabulary using their own words. The books are a useful source of learning specific vocabulary for native English speakers as well as learners of English – of all ages ! In the "Let's play with words" series : • The Birds • The Bees • In the garden • On the road • In the forest ABOUT THE AUTHORS Darinka Kobal began her career as a teacher at secondary level. After a fateful encounter with a bear, which left her with a severely injured hand, she had to give up teaching. In order to not lose touch with children, she began to write fairy tales. She has been delighting young readers with her tales throughout Slovenia for many years now. Polona Kosec is an illustrator working in illustration and character design for children’s books and magazines, as well as short commercial animation. In that sense, as she says herself, she is still a little girl creating magical worlds with colours. ABOUT THE PUBLISHER Okaši is a Slovenian publisher with a vibrant programme. At every turn, nature reveals its new face and discloses a myriad of secrets. This is why we have devoted a special place to it in our publishing house. We are the creators of books that delight curious children and their parents in their discoveries of nature : in the home garden and the nearby park, but also further afield, in the fields and forests. At Okaši we keep pace with the times which is why have embarked upon several electronic editions of our books. We have added sound to these publications and hence a new dimension to the contents already there.
