 Название: Snow in the Kingdom: My Storm Years on Everest
Автор: Ed Webster
Издательство: Independently Published
Год: 2014
Формат: EPUB
Размер: 23 Мб
Язык: английский / English
Snow in the Kingdom is the Everest autobiography of Ed Webster’s five "Storm Years" on and off of Mount Everest following the climbing death of his girlfriend, Lauren Husted, in Colorado's Black Canyon. A milestone in American mountaineering literature, Snow in the Kingdom will appeal to climbers and "armchair climbers" alike. It’s an adventure story penned in the tradition of the great explorers; a seminal document on modern lightweight, ethical Himalayan climbing; and a deeply personal account of one man’s search for redemption and achievement while pioneering an uncharted route up Everest’s most dangerous side. An astounding 150 pages of vivid color photographs — over 450 photographs in all — add depth and beauty to the compelling narrative. | |

 Название: Running Is Flying: Aphorisms, Meditations, and Thoughts on a Running Life
Автор: Paul E. Richardson
Издательство: Rodale
Год: 2012
Формат: EPUB
Размер: 11 Мб
Язык: английский / English
Running is hard work, yes. But it should also be fun and exhilarating. At its best, it recaptures the joy we experienced before running was recast as punishment or penance, when we would sprint out of the shadows in a darkened cul-de-sac to kick a can, chase someone on the playground, or race our dog along the beach. While that joy can be easy to find (remember finishing your first 5k?), it can be monumentally difficult to sustain. Humor helps. The intent of Running is Flying—a collection of over 60 aphorisms, thoughts and meditations on the running life—is to provide encouragement, levity, and perspective to a sport that has a tendency to take itself a bit too seriously. Wonderfully illustrated by British artist Paul Cox, Running is Flying provides encouragement, levity, and perspective to a sport that has a tendency to take itself a bit too seriously. | |

 Название: DogFace
Автор: Barbara O'Brien
Издательство: Avery
Год: 2014
Формат: EPUB
Размер: 43 Мб
Язык: английский / English
Photographer and animal trainer Barbara O’Brien has spent years photographing aspiring canine actors, from prancing puppies to stately hounds and tenacious terriers. At first, she discarded the photos if her subject was barking, sniffing, or otherwise looking less than perfect—until she realized that those outtakes best revealed the true personality of the pup. O’Brien is a skilled and seasoned photographer, and this winsome collection shows the care she took to reveal each dog’s essential character. The goofiness of the boisterous Border Collie, the decorum of the genteel Great Dane, and the curiosity of the regal Corgi—all of them are captured here in gorgeous four-color photography. | |

The towering sand dunes along Lake Michigan not far from Chicago are one of the most unexpected natural features of Indiana.

This area of shifting sands is also a place of savanna, wetland, prairie, and forest that is home to a wide diversity of plant and animal species.
