A new edition of a great, underappreciated classic of our time
Beryl Markham's West with the Night is a true classic, a book that deserves the same acclaim and readership as the work of her contemporaries Ernest Hemingway, Antoine de Saint-Exupery, and Isak Dinesen. If the first responsibility of a memoirist is to lead a life worth writing about, Markham succeeded beyond all measure. Born Beryl Clutterbuck in the middle of England, she and her father moved to Kenya when she was a girl, and she grew up with a zebra for a pet; horses for friends; baboons, lions, and gazelles for neighbors. She made money by scouting elephants from a tiny plane. And she would spend most of the rest of her life in East Africa as an adventurer, a racehorse trainer, and an aviatrix--she became the first person to fly nonstop from Europe to America, the first woman to fly solo east to west across the Atlantic. Hers was indisputably a life full of adventure and beauty. And then there is the writing. When Hemingway read Markham's book, he wrote to his editor, Maxwell Perkins: "She has written so well, and marvelously well, that I was completely ashamed of myself as a writer . . . She] can write rings around all of us who consider ourselves as writers . . . It is really a bloody wonderful book." With a new introduction by Sara Wheeler--one of Markham's few legitimate literary heirs--West with the Night should once again take its place as one of the world's great adventure stories.

Описание: Beryl Bainbridge`s classic early novel weaves a dark, clever tale of a young woman in thrall to a golden stranger in 1960s London.
What your mother tells you as a young girl may not be relevant by the time you finish your education.
Society is changing and the past gender values your Mother lived by are falling by the wayside.
We need strong educated women in our society to protect women and children living in a cycle of poverty as men are no longer the head of the house as previous generations were.
We as a society need to work together regardless of who we are, where we live or our cultural influences so all people benefit from living in our society.
Описание: Channelled Teachings from Master Jesus (Sananda) and Master R (St Germain)These teachings began in 1986 and spanned a duration of 12 years, and accompanied the family's spiritual unfoldment, and were exciting, reassuring and informative, when little information was available to us.They are a real tool or foundation for those people who are looking for a basis to start out on their own spiritual path and need information that speaks clearly and very simply, which is useful when a huge array of information is presently available, and what to choose can cause confusion.The teachings comprise topics like meditation, enlightenment, spirituality, karma, reincarnation, unconditional love, raising consciousness, the environment, and sending of light to places on the planet where there's conflict.
