Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Pig, porker, hog, swine--however you refer to him, there is no doubt that the chubby quadruped with the curly tail and the big oink is regarded with enormous affection. The author explores the influence of the pig's characteristics and his quirky nature on our language, literature, and general outlook on life. Piggy appearances in the media, both ancient and modern, are celebrated with a wide array of quotations from such diverse sources as Horace, Shakespeare, Bunyan, and Kipling, not to mention Noel Coward, Beatrix Potter, and The Goon Show. Higgledy-Piggledy offers us a marvelous selection of sayings and proverbs concerning all things porcine. Entertaining, informative, packed with unusual facts, and meticulously researched, Richard Lutwyche's book at last does proper justice to the rich heritage of the pig."--Publisher's description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive, richly illustrated introduction to the fascinating natural history of the pig, from prehistory to the present At any given time, there are around one billion pigs in the world; that's one for every seven of us. And where would we be without them? Prolific, ubiquitous, smart, adaptable, and providers of high-quality protein, pigs have been our companions since neolithic times, when they obligingly domesticated themselves, coming in from the wild to root around our waste pits. But it's not all about the bacon; today, bred in micro sizes, the resourceful pig has developed a whole new career as a popular pet. And thanks to genome mapping, we now know that the pig shares many common physiological features with humans, spurring the use of pig tissue and organs in medical research and surgery. Beautifully designed and illustrated, The Pig provides a snout-to-tail natural history of this important species, from the prehistoric "hell pig" to today's placid porker, covering the pig's evolution and domestication, anatomy and biology, behavior, role in human life and culture, and breeds. The book also features an engrossing and visually stunning photographic gallery of some thirty popular breeds from around the world, with essential information about each.

Download or read book Higgledy Piggledy written by Edward Hugessen Brabourne Baron and published by . This book was released on 2019-09-14 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1875. Six stories that can only be described as "Higgledy-Piggledy" THE CRONE OF CHARING, THE SQUIRREL AND THE HEDGEHOG, THE PIG OF CHERITON, THE MERMAID'S BOY, PRINCE MERIMEL, BILLYS STORY.Includes 8 original illustrations. From the preface: "It is a great thing to choose for a new book a title which all the world understands at once. Every reader, learned, or unlearned, will know the meaning of Higgledy-Piggledy.It means Higgledy-Piggledy. There is no other word in the English language which signifies exactly the same thing, and therefore there can be no difficulty about the matter. However, in case there should be anyone who requires further explana- tion, I am informed by a committee of under-house- maids who have lately been considering the subject, that the words Higgledy-Piggledy convey the idea of 'things jumbled up together anyhow'-things, in short, in a state of confusion. What, then, can be a more appropriate title for a book such as that which I now send forth to the world? In the six stories which it contains there are jumbled up together witches, jackdaws, fairies, pigs, mermaids, magistrates, dwarfs, cock-pheasants, and a great variety of other creatures who do not usually consort together, and could only have been brought into the same book by those wondrous powers of magic which confuse and confound the common order of nature. I have neither the time nor the power to sort them out properly and put each in his own place; and so, having learned what I knew about them from the Fairies who kindly supply me with information upon such subjects, I have written it down as well as I could, and send out the six stories which contain it, under the fitting title and designation of- "Higgledy-Piggledy."

An unscrupulous rival is driving her out of business. An incompetent contractor has left her precious kitchen in shambles. And she has just agreed to cater a fashion shoot at a nineteenth-century mountain cabin with her mentor and old friend, French chef André Hibbard. Together Goldy and André struggle in a hopelessly outdated kitchen to cater to a vacuous crowd of beautiful people whose personal dramas climax when a camera is pitched through a window . . . into the buffet.

A second murder follows and Goldy must somehow solve a mystery and prepare for a society soirée that could make—or break—her career.
