Poľovníctvo: Neobyčajné momenty


Vydajte sa na poľovačku s Gertom G. von Harlingom a renomovaným fotografom divej zveri Frankom Ecklerom a zdieľajte s nimi výnimočné a dojímavé zážitky. Gert G. von Harling sa na svet díva očami vášnivého milovníka prírody a priateľa zvierat a až v druhom pláne cez zorné pole svojho puškohľadu. Podstatou lovu tak preňho nie je streľba, ale skôr blízky kontakt s divokou prírodou. Vášeň pre poľovačku dostal takpovediac do vienka, keďže jeho otec i starý otec boli nadšenými poľovníkmi. Odovzdal ju aj svojim dvom deťom. O poľovníctve aj rád píše, na konte má vyše 40 kníh, pričom je oceňovaným a aj najčítanejším autorom poľovníckej literatúry v nemecky hovoriacich krajinách. V tejto publikácii približuje úchvatné zážitky z revírov v okolí svojho bydliska v Dolnom Sasku i v blízkom zahraničí. Nepíše len o trofejach, no často sa zamýšľa nad budúcnosťou poľovníctva. Jeho slová umocňujú úchvatné fotografie Franka Ecklera, ktorý vie citlivo zachytiť nielen krásu krajiny, ale aj nezvyčajné a opomínané výjavy zo života divej zveri. Inšpiráciu nachádza neustále, bez ohľadu na dennú či ročnú dobu alebo počasie. Čitatelia vďaka nemu nazrú do rodinného života diviačic či sŕn. Budú tiež svedkami súbojov danielov a jeleňov alebo naopak ostražitosti zajacov či jarabíc.

Swan


In the Encounters in the Wild series, renowned nature writer Jim Crumley gets up close and personal with British wildlife. With his inimitable passion and vision, he relives memorable encounters with some of our best-loved native species, offering intimate insights into their extraordinary lives. “The birches, the larches, the mountain grasses and the reed bed are all afire, sparkling after sleety rain and in fitful sunlight. It is as if nature has contrived its finest theatrical stage set and then turned up the colour. There are stags roaring, for it is the season of the red deer rut. There are golden eagles in the mountains, peregrines and ravens on nearby crags, and otters on the river. Every spring, reliably at the nesting season, the place floods spectacularly. I have come here to watch a pair of mute swans.”

The Spirit of the Rainforest


A competing title to the bestselling BRAIDING SWEETGRASS - a fascinating insight into the Amazon rainforest from scientist and peruivan-born explorer Dr Rosa Espinoza."An emotional personal journey that makes you feel like you’re living this connection with the Amazon alongside Dr Rosa. The way she describes everything hits every sense and builds an internal excitement if not slight trepidation to make this trip with her. I love the way the scientific explanations begin each chapter and allow a deeper understanding of how the amazon is deeply part of who we are." Isabella Blake-Thomas (Actress, Bee: wild ambassador)“In The Spirit of the Rainforest, Indigenous wisdom and scientific curiosity come together to show us how to reconnect with the natural world in holistic, meaningful ways.” – Dr. Jessica Hernandez“a remarkable storyteller, which she showcases in her phenomenal debut filled with traditional wisdom, scientific explorations and transformational connections.” – MS magazine “The Spirit of the Rainforest sweeps you into an unforgettable journey where an explorer’s insatiable curiosity becomes a bridge between Indigenous wisdom and scientific discovery. With luminous storytelling, it reveals how even the rainforest’s tiniest creatures can hold the keys to understanding and protecting our living planet. It’s a pulse-quickening ride that will leave you awed by nature’s brilliance and hungry to protect it." – Ariel WaldmanBefore you step into the jungle, there are a few things you need to know... Join scientist Dr Rosa Vasquez Espinoza as she uncovers one of the most unexplored regions on the planet. Dr Rosa is no stranger to the Amazon. Growing up with the rainforest as her back garden, she learnt the lessons of the rainforest from her grandmother, a native healer in natural medicine. She went on to pursue a classical education in science, gaining a PhD in the US, but has always been pulled back to the heart of the Amazon. As a leading biologist in her field, Rosa continues to explore the region through a unique blend of scientific inquiry and ancient insight. In this debut, you'll learn about Dr Rosa's journeys in the Amazon: her treacherous encounters with a boiling river, her conservation work with stingless bees, her experience of taking ayahuasca as a natural psychedelic - and all the amazing biodiversity of the rainforest. At the heart of Rosa's expedition is her passion to combine science with the indigenous knowledge of the Amazon. She shares her experience of learning from the indigenous communities that she visits, and shows what they have to teach us - stretching beyond the realm scientific knowledge. Here Rosa learns the most important lessons in how to reconnect to the natural world - and, in turn, will teach us to do the same. In this book, Rosa celebrates the richness of Amazonian culture, the wonders of biodiversity, and the enduring spiritual connections between humanity and the natural world.

British Rail Diesel and Electric Depots


Many railway enthusiasts have at one time or other visited some of the vast number of diesel and electric depots located around Britain. The British Locomotive Shed Directory once assisted enthusiasts to find the depots, some of which made permits available to individuals and parties for weekend visits. Scottish Region depots were extremely popular as free permits were readily available at one time, enabling enthusiasts to spot the highly sought-after Class 24, Class 26 and Class 27 locomotives, which seldomly worked south of the border. Martin Bray explores many of these diesel and electric depots, bringing back fond memories for those who visited them.Alongside a wealth of previously unpublished images, this book features fascinating facts about the depots, their locomotives, workings and other interesting memorabilia.

Scarborough Buses, 1940s–1960s


Scarborough of the 1940s to 1960s was a fascinating place for a young bus enthusiast. Travelling from Hull to visit relatives at Newby, outside Scarborough, whether for a day or longer, provided an opportunity not only to observe and ride on United’s buses, but also to travel by East Yorkshire buses.The main attraction was United’s buses which were often in a state of transformation, from 1930s Leyland Titans to the forward-entrance Lodekkas of the 1960s. They were always well turned out in smart red-and-cream livery. Especially fascinating were the three variants of the centre-entrance single-deckers which worked the seafront service. In summer, frequencies were intensive to serve crowds of holidaymakers at the attractions, especially near the Corner Café and on the seafront.East Yorkshire used 1930s Titans (some with new bodies), post-war Titans with ‘Beverley Bar’ bodywork, Bridgemasters and Renowns, while the West Yorkshire fleet had standard Bristol double-deckers and saloons, some with ‘Bible-style’ destination indicators.This selection of evocative photographs provides a flavour of a long-departed but not forgotten time on Scarborough’s buses.

What’s on the Tank?


The world of motorcycling is split like many parts of the world of motoring enthusiasm by the identity of its members’ vehicles. As with motor cars, every motorcycle make is identified by a specific marque name and badge, the origins of which are both wide-ranging and fascinating.Some makes remain well known, such as Triumph (a name chosen to be easily recognisable in every language) and Harley Davidson (named after the company’s founders), while other marques have been swallowed up by history. Once-great British names such as BSA (a name created from the initials of the parent company Birmingham Small Arms) and Douglas (named after the company founders) are no longer with us, but their owners’ clubs keep their names alive and well. BSA motorcycles would be badged with a ‘piled arms’ symbol comprising three rifles, while Douglas would acquire the figure of a Scotsman called ‘Douglas’. Overseas, Honda would choose a winged ‘H’ for all its motorcycles and Laverda would use the colours of the Italian flag.Michael Burgess explores the intriguing history of the names and badges of motorcycle manufacturers from around the world, some well-known, some more obscure, with a selection of high-quality images.

The Nissan Gt-R


Nissan’s GT-R is more than just a car — it’s a legend. From its humble beginnings as a performance offshoot of the Skyline, to its domination on racetracks and drag strips around the world, the GT-R has earned its status as a true icon of Japanese engineering. For the first time, the entire story is told in one definitive volume. This book offers the most complete chronicle yet of Nissan’s high-performance hero. Beginning with a brief look at Nissan and the Datsun brand, it delves into the earliest GT-Rs — models rarely seen outside of Japan, let alone covered in depth in English. From there, it tackles the famous R32, R33, and R34 generations in unprecedented detail, documenting their evolution, variants, and racing successes. The final chapters are dedicated to the R35 — a model that redefined what a GT-R could be for the modern era. With production now winding down globally, this book comes at a pivotal moment, preserving a complete account of the GT-R legacy just as the curtain closes on its road-going story. Filled with rare photos, insider insight, technical data, and motorsport achievements, The Nissan GT-R is a fitting tribute to one of the most important performance cars of our time.

Honolulu Blues


The city of Detroit and its football team have been a punchline since the 1960s - the Same Old Lions seem to have losing baked into their DNA. Joel Walkowski is a poor kid from the Midwest, cut from the same cloth as his loveable, eccentric father, Banjo Bob, who pushes forward down the field amidst his autism, alcoholism, and severe childhood trauma. They see each other most clearly on Sundays, coming together as the twelfth man on the sidelines of a team whose history looks a lot like theirs - seasons full of promise upended by a penchant for falling short. In Honolulu Blues Joel intertwines the fate of two losers - the Detroit Lions and himself - to explore the broader impact a city''s football team can have on its residents, proving that you can overcome anything if you can learn to love what disappoints you. Born and raised to be an addict, Joel is hooked on Adderall by seven and hops on the fast track to a life of alcoholism, homelessness, and - worst of all - a career in stand-up comedy. He holds his head high because he, like his family and their beloved team, is supposed to lose. Learning from the Lions what his father couldn''t teach him, Joel charts his journey to sobriety while caring for his dying father, coming to terms with the fact that there''s a difference between failing and never having been set up for success. Honolulu Blues proves the Lions story is the story of being human - carving your own path out of the ruts of the past and accepting that you don''t have to win to be worth rooting for.

U táborového ohně, 2. vydání


Nabízíme čtenářům nahlédnutí do dávných turistických a tábornických praktik v knize „U táborového ohně“. Její autoři Vladimír Rogl se Ctiradem Smolíkem v ní přibližují atmosféru turistiky, táboření i trempinku dětí a mládeže na počátku druhé poloviny minulého století. I když se i v této oblasti od dob jejího prvního vydání v roce 1968 leccos změnilo - a zvláště v oblasti vybavení na turistiku a táboření je všeho nepřeberné množství - ponecháváme původní text včetně názorných a vtipných kreseb v nezměněné podobě. Věříme, že tato publikace osloví nejen pamětníky vzpomínající nostalgicky na své vlastní dávné zelené vandry, ale nabídne poučení i zábavu současné mladé generaci, která si na chvíli odskočí od surfování na počítači, stejně tak jako byla před padesáti lety průvodcem a rádcem tehdejším mladým turistům a táborníkům při jejich výpravách za dobrodružstvím v přírodě. Proto také této knížce přejeme, aby se znovu stala jejich věrným kamarádem!

Babylon, Albion


Whoever said nature is still has not borne witness to the migration of the seasons.In this lyrical enquiry, Dalia Al-Dujaili considers what it means to belong in your land.

Weaving together Arab and Islamic mythology with the English and Christian pastoral, Al-Dujaili unmasks the communal lush, familiar and, at times, dark places we share.A love song to Britain, Iraq and the body of earth we hold in common, Babylon, Albion is a compelling re-imagining of what it means to be native.
