Book excerpt: Longlisted for the 2020 Wainwright Prize 'I can't remember the last book I read that I could say with absolute assurance would save lives. But this one will' Chris Packham 'Fabulously direct and truthful, filled with energy but devoid of self-pity . . . I was impressed and enchanted. Highly recommended' Stephen Fry 'Succeeds – triumphantly – in articulating with great honesty what it is like to suffer with a mental illness, and in providing strategies for coping' Mail on Sunday When Joe Harkness suffered a breakdown in 2013, he tried all the things his doctor recommended: medication helped, counselling was enlightening, and mindfulness grounded him. But nothing came close to nature, particularly birds. How had he never noticed such beauty before? Soon, every avian encounter took him one step closer to accepting who he is. The positive change in Joe's wellbeing was so profound that he started a blog to record his experience. Three years later he has become a spokesperson for the benefits of birdwatching, spreading the word everywhere from Radio 4 to Downing Street. In this groundbreaking book filled with practical advice, Joe explains the impact that birdwatching had on his life, and invites the reader to discover these extraordinary effects for themselves.

Download or read book The Gypsies of Yetholm written by William Brockie and published by . This book was released on 1883 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kirk Yetholm is a small village in the Scottish Borders region that for centuries was known as the headquarters of the Romani people (Gypsies) in Scotland. Brockie's ethnographic study attempts to capture the "peculiar characteristics or idiosyncrasies" of the Yetholm Gypsies "before they are absorbed in the general population of the land, and consequently lost to view." He examines important historical figures and events and briefly addresses those aspects of Gypsy life that you might expect to find in an ethnographic work: myths, religion, cookery, marriages and divorces, funerals, names, language, colonies, dance and music, education, fortune-telling, child-stealing, fairs, habits, home life, and humor. In the Miscellanea, Brockie asks the question, "Was John Bunyan a Gypsy?" The work concludes with a bibliography, "for the curious reader," of other works concerning Gypsies.

Download or read book Walking the Camino dos Faros written by John Hayes and published by Cicerone Press Limited. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guidebook explores the Camiño dos Faros (the Way of the Lighthouses), a 200km hike around the remote northwest corner of Spain. Starting in the old whaling town of Malpica and ending in Fisterra (Spain's Land's End), the eight day hike along the Costa da Morte follows a path that sticks limpet-like to the Atlantic coast. It's a spectacular walk along dramatic cliffs and around deep, verdant river estuaries, exploring the rich Galician culture and history. With stages between 18 and 29km per day, this is a hike suitable for walkers willing to undertake reasonably long days and the occasional scramble up and down beach paths. The guide provides in-depth descriptions of the route alongside clear mapping to aid navigation. It includes practical information for both before and during your trip, and details about wildlife and historic sites along the walk. In the back of the guide are a series of appendices listing accommodation, main Galician festivals, and useful contacts. The Camiño dos Faros follows the wild coast of the Costa da Morte, which is battered by storms racing in from the Atlantic. For shipping it is one of the world's most dangerous coastlines and its ominous name meaning 'the coast of death' is well deserved. 'Dos Faros' refers to a series of beautifully located lighthouses that attempt to warn sailors of the perils that await them. The sea has shaped the landscape and the Galician culture, and the locally caught seafood including razor clams and percebes should not be missed.
