Book excerpt: 'Storm Pegs perfectly captures the knotting of language and landscape. I was transported.' - Katherine May, Sunday Times bestselling author of Wintering From the winner of the T.S. Eliot Prize and the Highland Book Prize What if the answer to ‘Where am I?’ is ‘heaven’? In her late twenties, celebrated poet Jen Hadfield moved to the Shetland archipelago to make her life anew. A scattering of islands at the northernmost point of the United Kingdom, frequently cut off from the mainland by storms, Shetland is a place of Vikings and myths, of ancient languages and old customs, of breathtaking landscapes and violent weather. It has long fascinated travellers seeking the edge of the world. On these islands known for their isolation and drama, Hadfield found something more: a place teeming with life, where rare seabirds blow in on Atlantic gales, seals and dolphins visit its beaches, and wild folk festivals carry the residents through long, dark winters. She found a close-knit community, too, of neighbours always willing to lend a boat or build a creel, of women wild-swimming together in the star-spangled winter seas. Over seventeen years, as bright summer nights gave way to storm-lashed winters, she learned new ways to live. In prose as rich and magical as Shetland itself, Hadfield transports us to the islands as a local; introducing us to the remote and beautiful archipelago where she has made her home, and shows us new ways of living at the edge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the first edition of this book was published in 1957, the art of making a tipi was almost lost, even among American Indians. Since that time a tremendous resurgence of interest in the Indian way of life has occurred, resurgence due in part, at least, to the Laubins' life-long efforts at preservation and interpretation of Indian culture. As The Indian Tipi makes obvious, the American Indian is both a practical person and a natural artist. Indian inventions are commonly both serviceable and beautiful. Other tents are hard to pitch, hot in summer, cold in winter, poorly lighted, unventilated, easily blown down, and ugly to boot. The conical tipi of the Plains Indian has none of these faults. It can be pitched by one person. It is roomy, well ventilated at all times, cool in summer, well lighted, proof against high winds and heavy downpours, and, with its cheerful fire inside, snug in the severest winter weather. Moreover, its tilted cone, trim smoke flaps, and crown of poles, presenting a different silhouette from every angle, form a shapely, stately dwelling even without decoration. In this new edition the Laubins have retained all the invaluable aspects of the first edition, and have added a tremendous amount of new material on day-to-day living in the tipi: the section on Indian cooking has been expanded to include a large number and range of Indian foods and recipes, as well as methods of cooking over an open fire, with a reflector oven, and with a ground oven; there are new sections on making buckskin, making moccasins, and making cradle boards; there is a whole new section on child care and general household hints. Shoshoni, Cree, and Assiniboine designs have been added to the long list of tribal tipi types discussed. This new edition is richly illustrated with color and black and white photographs, and drawings to aid in constructing and living in the tipi. It is written primarily for the interested amateur, and will appeal to anyone who likes camping, the out-of-doors, and American Indian lore.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experience America before & during the early Civil War engagements. Real and fictional people react to war, its circumstances, tragedy and love through the best and worst of times. In the end, love prevails. This novel is about our nation, during perhaps its most critical time in history. Our nation’s leaders were at odds — northern leaders and southern leaders failed to reconcile their differences over slavery and other issues. Young Robbie Holcomb, reared in abolitionist traditions, ventures south to further his education. He finds friendships and love as well as minor hatred and bigotry. Even so, he finds more good than bad in his southern life experience. Subsequently, when civil war comes, Robbie finds himself in the Confederate army. The story is entertwined between fact and fiction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Edinburgh edition (published in Philadelphia in the same year) of an illustrated guide to first aid, written by Surgeon-Captain E.J. Lawless M.D., of the East Surrey Regiment, and designed to 'suit the requirements of those attending regimental classes', as well as to members of volunteer and civil ambulance classes. 'Recent circular orders upon the formation of Brigade Bearer Companies in the Volunteer Service, render it advisable that the course for the ambulance proficiency certificate should be supplemented by a second and more extended instruction in subjects such as Sick Nursing - Field Hospital Organization - the elementary principles of Health and of Sick Diet, &c. Part II has been written with this end in view' (preface). The Volunteer Infantry Brigade Bearer plan to create dedicated companies appears to have been begun not long after the formation in 1877 of the Ambulance Association of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem. As Lawless makes clear in his preface, the scheme seems never to have really taken off nation-wide, and he appeals to the executive Committee of the St. John Ambulance Association, that some of their newly certified and qualified able-bodied young men could be encouraged to swell the ranks of the County Bearer and Regimental Companies.
