Follow the Flock

How Sheep Shaped Human Civilization

By: Sally Coulthard

An addictively free-ranging survey of the massive impact that the humble and loveable sheep have had on human history. From the plains of ancient Mesopotamia to the rolling hills of medieval England to the vast sheep farms of modern-day Australia, the domesticated ungulates of the genus Ovis—sheel—have been central to the human story. Starting with our Neolithic ancestors' first forays into sheep-rearing nearly 10,000 years ago, these remarkable animals have fed us, clothed us, changed our diet and languages, helped us to win wars, decorated our homes, and financed the conquest of large swathes of the earth. Enormous fortunes and new, society-changing industries have been made from the fleeces of sheep, and cities shaped by shepherds' markets and meat trading. Sally Coulthard weaves the rich and fascinating story of sheep into a vivid and colorful tapestry, thickly threaded with engaging anecdotes and remarkable ovine facts, whose multiple strands reflect the deep penetration of these woolly animals into every aspect of human society and culture.

Linking Conservation and Poverty Reduction

Landscapes, People and Power

By: Robert Fisher,Stewart Maginnis,William Jackson,Edmund Barrow,Sally Jeanrenaud

This book aims to inspire the conservation community not to regard poverty reduction as someone else's job but to take responsibility for it as part of ecosystem restoration. Though no solutions are perfect,the text and examples given offer encouraging and useful guidance.' Gill Shepherd, poverty and landscapes thematic leader, IUCN Forest Conservation Programme. 'This book could be the catalyst for a real paradigm shift - not just in capital cities and international conference centres, but also on the ground in locations where poor people are struggling to make a living.' Policy Matters (praise for the first edition). High levels of rural poverty in many of the world's ecosystems make it an ethical and practical imperative to find more equitable and realistic ways of achieving conservation. Livelihoods of the rural poor and options for conservation and sustainable use of biological diversity are so intimately entwined that they are better addressed through an integrated approach, irrespective of whether the primary motivation is one of development or one of conservation. This highly accessible book, a revised edition of the 2005 book Poverty and Conservation: Landscapes, People and Power, offers a grand overview of the issues and a conceptual framework for addressing poverty reduction in the context of conservation, and conservation in the context of poverty reduction. It will appeal to professionals working in the field as well as to students across the fields of conservation, development and sustainability. It looks at the rationale for addressing the links between conservation and poverty reduction, arguing that such a focus is both ethically essential and a source of opportunities. It alsoreviews experiences in dealing with people and conservation and identifies some key lessons and concepts. The book presents cases studies illustrating various approaches and a discussion of some of the issues that appear when implementing combined conservation and poverty reduction. The book emphasizes the importance of multiple spatial scales and negotiating trade-offs between scales. It also tackles the complex issue of institutional landscapes and the way in which changes at various institutional levels can lead to different and often more positive outcomes. The Final part summarizes some of the main features of the authors' integrated approach and identifies some of the challenges involved in efforts to combine conservation and poverty reduction.

A Guide to the Papers of British Cabinet Ministers 1900-1964

By: Cameron Hazlehurst,Sally Whitehead,Christine Woodland

A Guide to the Papers of British Cabinet Ministers 1900-1964 is the revised and expanded edition of a volume first published by The Royal Historical Society in 1974. Its aim is to provide up-to-date information on the papers of 323 ministers in the first edition and include all Cabinet ministers (or those who held positions included in a Cabinet) until the resignation of Sir Alec Douglas-Home as Prime Minister in 1964. Thus the scope of this edition has increased from the 323 ministers in the first Guide to 384, and therefore incorporates those who held relevant positions in the Churchill, Eden, Macmillan and Home governments. Information is provided on 60 'new' ministers and the previously omitted Lord Stanley. This Guide therefore is a major research tool and a source of information on personal papers, often in private hands, of people who played major roles in twentieth-century political life.

Eighth Day Prayers

Daily Hope for Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany

By: Willa Kane,Madison Perry,Sally Breedlove,Alysia Yates

An Invitation to Reflect and Pray During Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany There is no busier time of year than Christmas. So much is vying for our time and attention that it seems impossible to slow down and ponder the true meaning of the season. What a relief it is that God understands our desire to be still and wants the same for us. His Word helps prepare our hearts for the miracle of Christmas—the story of an almighty God sending his only son into the world to save us. Eighth Day Prayers is meant to usher us into a place of reverence and prayer where we await the coming Messiah (Advent), celebrate Jesus’ arrival (Christmas), and realize the fulfillment of his promises to us (Epiphany). Eighth Day Prayers encourages readers to engage with God’s Word and pray words taken from Scripture. Each entry features: a Scripture passage to read as you begin your time in the Word a brief reflection to take you deeper into Scripture a Scripture-soaked prayer to conclude your quiet time and refocus your day and a calendar at the top of each page to help you stay on track We are all living in the eighth day—one of new creation. One where the kingdom of God is “already here and not yet fulfilled.” Eighth Day Prayers invites us to draw closer to Him as we reflect on His goodness during this sacred season.

Michigan Myths and Legends

The True Stories behind History's Mysteries

By: Sally Barber

From tales of pirate treasure to Jimmy Hoffa’s mysterious disappearance, Michigan Myths and Legends makes history fun and pulls back the curtain on some of the state’s most fascinating and compelling stories. Most people have heard about the Bermuda Triangle, where ships and people disappear without a trace—but few have heard about the equally deadly Great Lakes Triangle, where one-third of all unsolved sea and air disasters in America take place. Night after night, curious onlookers congregate on a remote hill near the Michigan/Wisconsin border to watch for mysterious lights that rise out of the ground, hover, and then disappear. Are the orbs merely optical phenomena created by headlights of passing cars? Or are they spirits returning to haunt where their earthly bodies met their demise? In the mid-1960s, the number of reports to the US Air Force of UFO sightings spiked across the country. Were people seeing unfamiliar technological innovations in aircraft? Had the rising popularity of the new-fangled television’s sci-fi programs sparked Americans’ imaginations? Or were extraterrestrial beings actually responding to signals from newly constructed deep-space radio transmitters?

What the Flock!

Raising kids, rearing animals and other misadventures on our family farm

By: Sally Urwin

From high heels to welly boots – one woman’s misadventures in becoming a farmer, raising a family and making a living from the land. Sally Urwin was living in a tiny flat in the city with a high-pressure job. She was depressed, surviving off rescue remedies and wine, and longing for a different life when she met and married farmer Steve. Returned to the rolling hills of Northumberland, a place she’d adored as a child, Sally imagined herself wafting around High House Farm in floral dresses followed by a bevy of rosy-cheeked children. The reality is quite different… Sally is usually wearing a jumper covered in sheep poo and bellowing at Mavis the collie to stop chasing Gladys the grumpy pony and her kids are moaning about being dragged outside while she is caring for a ewe who has ingested a poisonous plant after wandering into the neighbour’s field. But despite the chaos of juggling motherhood with running a farm, financial hardship and dealing with poorly animals, the exhilarating freedom of rural life has helped Sally to heal her own body and mind. Lambing season might be backbreaking, but the utter joy in cradling a new-born lamb is worth all the sweat and tears. With a mix of grit, humour and the love of family, Sally shows us that it’s never too late to live the life you’ve always dreamed of. Fans of The Yorkshire Shepherdess will love this hilarious, heartfelt and honest account that will have you howling with laughter and sobbing into your tissues in equal measure. Read what everyone is saying about What the Flock!: ‘I don't know how to tell you how much I loved this book… You just CAN’T go wrong with having the author as narrator.’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘I don’t even know where to begin!… an amazing memoir that reads like fiction… you will find yourself being sucked into stories… you will laugh and cry… I couldn’t put this book down until I devoured it from start to finish… 1000/10 would read again and again.’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘This book was perfect. I loved the honest and wholesome look at life the author provides. It is at sometimes funny and sometimes sad… like talking to a friend.’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘I don’t know any animal lover that won’t enjoy this book… I related to the female farmer talking about her struggles with the corporate world, and I dreamed along with her that I might be capable of farming and loving on animals all day… I cried over the losses that can come with farm life… will keep you entertained, and I’m going to keep rooting for this family to secure their farm’s future.’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘If Bo Peep met the Durrells, they’d happily live alongside Sally Urwin on her Northumbrian farm. An engaging and very, very funny account of a city girl who became a sheep farmer and traded in everything she thought she knew for a life where the four-legged family members rule.’ Freya North ‘I loved this… a joy to read… Honest and funny.’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘A beautiful memoir and the way she narrates it in this audio book makes it all the more special… I felt as if I was sat at her table having a cuppa as she told me about her life. Stunning book and I will be buying copies for friends.’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘I really enjoyed this one… the author is a wonderful storyteller and I enjoyed her humor. I laughed out loud at the stories about Candy, the fat pony.’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars

Well, I Wonder

Childhood in the Modern World - a Handbook for Parents, Carers and Teachers

By: Sally Schweizer

Have we come to misunderstand children? Have we forgotten that children's consciousness, their minds, is intrinsically different from ours? And is that why we are trying to train them to become 'adults' rather than realizing we need to relearn our way of thinking in order to understand children?" Given the fast pace of modern life, the traditional qualities associated with childhood -- imagination, play, wonder, and even fun itself -- are in danger of being left behind. Surrounded by technology and pressures on parents toward early learning, today's young child is often bounced between television entertainment and computer games and then thoroughly unbalanced by premature intellectualization, early reading, and tests. Sally Schweizer calls for a reevaluation of childhood and an awakening to the real needs of children. Being a mother of four and having spent more thirty years in education (as a kindergarten teacher, teacher trainer, and advisor), she is qualified to ask the hard questions and offer real solutions. Well, I Wonder is packed with practical suggestions, anecdotes, humor, and delightful quotes from Schweizer's students. Her approach is based on the study and practice of Rudolf Steiner's educational philosophy, as well as personal, firsthand knowledge gained from long experience. The author guides us through the stages of childhood development, explaining children's need for daily rhythm, movement, and play. She emphasizes the importance of guarding children's imagination and the significance of festivals and celebrations. She offers helpful tips and wise advice throughout this well-illustrated book, which also features an eight-page color section on the evolution of children's drawings.

Pennsylvania Farming

A History in Landscapes

By: Sally McMurry

Since precolonial times, agriculture has been deeply woven into the fabric of Pennsylvania's history and culture. Pennsylvania Farming presents the first history of Pennsylvania agriculture in more than sixty years, and offers a completely new perspective. Sally McMurry goes beyond a strictly economic approach and considers the diverse forces that helped shape the farming landscape, from physical factors to cultural repertoires to labor systems. Above all, the people who created and worked on Pennsylvania's farms are placed at the center of attention. More than 150 photographs inform the interpretation, which offers a sweeping look at the evolution of Pennsylvania's agricultural landscapes right up to the present day.

Shakespeare and the Royal Actor

Performing Monarchy, 1760-1952

By: Sally Barnden

Shakespeare and the Royal Actor argues that members of the royal family have identified with Shakespearean figures at various times in modern history to assert the continuity, legitimacy, and national identity of the royal line. It provides an account of the relationship between the Shakespearean afterlife and the royal family through the lens of a broadly conceived theatre history suggesting that these two hegemonic institutions had a mutually sustaining relationship from the accession of George III in 1760 to that of Elizabeth II in 1952. Identifications with Shakespearean figures have been deployed to assert the Englishness of a dynasty with strong familial links to Germany and to cultivate a sense of continuity from the more autocratic Plantagenet, Tudor, and Stuart monarchs informing Shakespeare's drama to the increasingly ceremonial monarchs of the modern period. The book is driven by new archival research in the Royal Collection and Royal Archives. It reads these archives critically, asking how different forms of royal and Shakespearean performance are remembered in the material holdings of royal institutions.

The Girls from Mary's Hall

The Path to Home

By: Sally Ann Rodgers

Mary’s Hall was a unique and important place. Started by a Brooklyn priest in the mid-1940s, the residence became a refuge for young women without a safe place to live. The girls and women who were given love and shelter there became one big family, supporting one another, and enjoying each other’s company. But one fateful night in February 1956, that safety was destroyed. Mary’s Hall burned to the ground because of faulty wiring. Miraculously, all the residents escaped with their lives, but all of their personal belongings were lost. They were given a temporary place to live at The House of The Good Shepherd, but the tragedy was still vivid and shocking: the girls of Mary’s Hall had lost their home and the group they had come to know as family. Many years later, one of the survivors decided to write a book about Mary’s Hall.

Urban Nature Every Day

Discover the natural world on your doorstep

By: Jane McMorland Hunter,Sally Hughes

366 prompts for noticing nature every day of the year. Arranged in day-by-day format, this beautiful book is a celebration of the nature you can find in your city or town, such as urban foxes prowling in the street, wildflowers sprouting from a crack in the pavement, butterflies on your balcony and the joys of wandering along a canal path. Learn how to put up a bug hotel on the 5th January, search for cherry blossom on the 4th April and have a picnic underneath a willow's branches on the 11th June. There are cloud formations to spot, avenues of trees to walk down and elderberries to harvest. Over the past few years, many city dwellers have learned to appreciate the nature on their doorsteps, as part of the lasting legacy of lockdown. This timely book is a celebration of the vast variety of wildlife around us, proving that you don't need a trip to the countryside to enjoy the natural world.

Tissue

By: Sally Berridge

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Tissue

By: Sally Berridge

Tissue is both an autobiography and a comment on the autobiographical process. The first part describes a life lived in four countries: British India, the British colony of Kenya, England and Australia, and the consequences of the end of colonialism for a child that was inadvertently part of it. It also describes a return to Kenya in 2003 to find a lost farm, and a lifelong search for a lost mother and her family in England. The second part of the book looks at some of the ideas around autobiography that may be taken for granted: issues of memory, identity and time, and cultural narratives that may affect the ways in which autobiographies can be written.

Journal for Star Wisdom 2013

By: David Bowden,David Tresemer,William Bento,Wain Farrants,Brian Gray,Kevin Dann,Lacquanna Paul,Sally Nurney

We must think with clarity. Clarity is honesty born into thinking." --Massimo Scaligero Here is a classic of contemporary spirituality. Scaligero was a student of Zen, yoga, and the spiritual science of Rudolf Steiner--but he came to completely independent conclusions based on his direct spiritual experience. Scaligero's masterpiece is a continuous, unfolding meditation, and an immediate expression of his travels in higher realms. It shows how the primal principle, the source of all being--knowing and love--descends instant by instant into the phenomenal world. He writes from the very stream of being, into which his work invites us, and poses a challenge: will we learn to experience the processes of consciousness, or will we rest in their products? As with the texts of all true spiritual masters, Scaligero's words must be savored and contemplated in order to extract the nectar of wisdom contained in them.

Sensational Religion

By: Sally Promey

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Sensational Religion

By: Sally Promey

The result of a collaborative, multiyear project, this groundbreaking book explores the interpretive worlds that inform religious practice and derive from sensory phenomena. Under the rubric of "making sense," the studies assembled here ask, How have people used and valued sensory data? How have they shaped their material and immaterial worlds to encourage or discourage certain kinds or patterns of sensory experience? How have they framed the sensual capacities of images and objects to license a range of behaviors, including iconoclasm, censorship, and accusations of blasphemy or sacrilege? Exposing the dematerialization of religion embedded in secularization theory, editor Sally Promey proposes a fundamental reorientation in understanding the personal, social, political, and cultural work accomplished in religion’s sensory and material practice. Sensational Religion refocuses scholarly attention on the robust material entanglements often discounted by modernity’s metaphysic and on their inextricable connections to human bodies, behaviors, affects, and beliefs.

Divine Love

Women Who Have It and How You Can Too

By: Sally Miller

Women everywhere—regardless of age or background—want to experience a life-altering, gentle, everyday kind of love. For years now we have looked at bars, yacht clubs, churches, synagogues, casinos, the farmer’s market, dating services, and the Internet trying to find it. Just when we think we have it, we discover that mere mortals—no matter how perfect—cannot offer the kind of love our hearts hunger for. How is it that some women through history and today seem to have found the love we all so desperately seek? Divine Love: Women Who Have It and How You Can Too is a narrative nonfiction that carries women through the pages of history to our streets today to see real women who experienced God’s indescribable love. Through the remarkable stories of women such as Joan of Arc, Julian of Norwich, Pocahontas, the woman of Endor, Harriet Tubman, Xio Min, and more, women will see extraordinary love can be experienced when seeking it from the Divine.

Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management

A Manual for Economic Appraisal

By: Edmund Penning-Rowsell,Sally Priest,Dennis Parker,Joe Morris,Sylvia Tunstall,Christophe Viavattene,John Chatterton,Damon Owen

A new ‘Multi-Coloured Manual' This book is a successor to and replacement for the highly respected manual and handbook on the benefits of flood and coastal risk management, produced by the Flood Hazard Research Centre at Middlesex University, UK, with support from Defra and the Environment Agency. It builds upon a previous book known as the "multi-coloured manual" (2005), which itself was a synthesis of the blue (1977), red (1987) and yellow manuals (1992). As such it expands and updates this work, to provide a manual of assessment techniques of flood risk management benefits, indirect benefits, and coastal erosion risk management benefits. It has three key aims. First it provides methods and data which can be used for the practical assessment of schemes and policies. Secondly it describes new research to update the data and improve techniques. Thirdly it explains the limitations and complications of Benefit-Cost Analysis, to guide decision-making on investment in river and coastal risk management schemes.

The Magnificent Names of Jesus

Prayers and Praises to Love Him More

By: Jimmy Dodd,Sally Dodd

Names can tell us a great deal about people, and the names of Jesus are no exception. The Gospels alone offer more than one hundred names for Christ, presenting a beautiful picture of Him as our Teacher, King, and Lord. Our Light, our Living Water, and so much more. The Magnificent Names of Jesus is a unique prayer guide that explores 37 of these memorable names, all to show children the breadth and depth of Christ. Each short chapter spotlights one name and offers a modern-day explanation, Scripture, and name-focused prayer. Written in a welcoming style as a “read to me” / “read with me” book, it can be used as a devotional for children and families, with charming illustrations to further convey the message and meaning behind each name. As kids learn to pray to Jesus their Shepherd, Jesus their Friend, and dozens more, the experience brings deep heart change both for the children and the loving adults who read with them. Allow this unique guide to shape your children's faith as they learn and love the magnificent names of Jesus.
