Описание: Margaret Erskine Wilson, late President of Kendal Natural History Society, was a keen amateur botanist and water-colourist. In 1999, she donated to the Society 150 sheets of water-colour paintings representing a thousand British and Irish plants in flower and in fruit, painted in situ over many years and in various places.
At the time she donated the paintings to Kendal Natural History Society, she wrote: Begun in 1943/4 for a friend who said, 'I might learn the names of flowers if you drew them for me, in the months they're in flower'!
The result is this beautiful, previously unpublished book of all her accurate and informative illustrations, painted over a period of 45 years.
Over a thousand British and Irish flowers are represented in this book and it still today serves Margaret Erskine Wilson's original purpose -- it is an easy way to learn the names of our delicate and beautiful wild flowers.

Описание: In the tradition of A Civil Action--this true story of a North Carolina outdoorsman who teams up with his Appalachian neighbors to save treasured land from being destroyed will "make you want to head for the mountains" (Raleigh News & Observer). LIVING ALONE IN HIS WOODED MOUNTAIN RETREAT, Jay Leutze gets a call from a whip-smart fourteen-year-old, Ashley Cook, and her aunt, Ollie Cox, who say a local mining company is intent on tearing down Belview Mountain, the towering peak above their house. Ashley and her family, who live in a little spot known locally as Dog Town, are "mountain people," with a way of life and speech unique to their home high in the Appalachians. They suspect the mining company is violating North Carolina's mining law, and they want Jay, a nonpracticing attorney, to stop the destruction of the mountain. Jay, a devoted naturalist and fisherman, quickly decides to join their cause. So begins the epic quest of "the Dog Town Bunch," a battle that involves fiery public hearings, clandestine surveillance of the mine operator's highly questionable activities, ferocious pressure on public officials, and high-stakes legal brinksmanship in the North Carolina court system. Jay helps assemble a talented group of environmental lawyers to contend with the well-funded attorneys protecting the mining company's plan to dynamite Belview Mountain, which happens to sit next to the famous Appalachian Trail, the 2,184- mile national park that stretches from Maine to Georgia. As the mining company continues to level the forest and erect the gigantic crushing plant on the site, Jay's group searches frantically for a way to stop an act of environmental desecration that will destroy a fragile wild place and mar the Appalachian Trail forever.

Описание:
To save the magical creatures in the Land of Faery, Ivy--eldest daughter of the queen of Faery--must use her wits and her heart. As the queen's madness grows, the land shifts in dangerous, hostile ways.
When Ivy rescued a baby from the Wild Hunt, she had no idea that he would change the world. Since time passes differently in her world, the baby she once saved is a grown boy who can help her save her home. Now, Ivy brings him to Faery to enlist his help.
Jack Merry has no idea that the creatures in his stories are real. He just wants a friend, a family, someone who listens. His stories are the only way he can convince the villagers to stop and spend time at his side. So, when Ivy arrives and whisks him off to a magical land, Jack isn't sure whether to be terrified or grateful that someone thinks he's special.
With the aid of the tiny faeries, a glaistig, the Bollynoggins, and boy who can re-create the world almost as quickly as the queen breaks it, Ivy might save her home, her friends, and even her mother.
Описание: To all the nurses that have seen it, heard it, smelled it, touched it, stepped in it, and worn it: SAID NO NURSE EVER: A COLORING BOOK FOR NURSES WHO'VE SEEN IT ALL is for you. Here's a few samples from the dazzling coloring pages in the book (and of course, you would never say any of these): "I love my soft, manicured hands that have gone places I never thought possible," said no nurse, ever. "I love when it's Friday night and there's a full moon," said no night shift nurse, ever. "I don't need to pee... did that 9 hours ago, before my shift started," said no nurse ever. "May your cup runneth over... except for that urine specimen cup you're trying to hand me." Plus there's over 30 MORE coloring pages filled with even more humor and sass that every nurse will instantly relate to. It's the perfect gift... for yourself, or your favorite nurse & friend Just perfect All 36 illustrations in SAID NO NURSE EVER are original, high-resolution images (NOT clip art or reprints) with smooth, clean, crisp lines. Some pages are very detailed, and others can be completed in one or two sessions - so it's ideal for any time you want to sit down with a cup of coffee, and chill out with some creative coloring. The book is printed at the same facilities that print the best-selling coloring books on Amazon, with quality 60# paper, perfect for colored pencils and pens. To minimize coloring bleed-through, all images are printed on one side of the paper only, which also means they are easy to clip and frame. SAID NO NURSE EVER is a pretty wild and crazy coloring book, but then so is a nurse's life. It makes for some delightfully snarky and fun coloring pages, and will not fail to put a smile on your face - because you know it is true. It's fun to color, fun to share with your nurse friends. And those friends will definitely want to see every single color filled masterpiece you create. (And they will want a copy of their own.)
