Mauled - Jeremy Evans

An inspiring true-life survival story set in the remote backcountry of the Canadian Rockies.In August 2017, 32-year-old Jeremy Evans endured multiple ferocious attacks by a protective female grizzly bear while hunting in the Alberta wilderness.Jeremy’s injuries were massive, his scalp and face destroyed, an eye and his jaw dangling down. The tendons on one leg had been fully severed during the mauling. His hands were damaged where he had physically fought the bear. It was more than a dozen kilometres to where he had parked his truck in darkness early that morning and absolutely no one was near. Thoughts of his wife and their eight-month-old daughter consumed Jeremy as he stumbled and crawled for hours back to his truck, before driving himself several kilometres to a backcountry lodge for help. All the while, Jeremy thought of his young family and the upcoming sixth wedding anniversary that he feared he might never be able to celebrate.Mauled carefully details what happened deep in an Alberta forest where few modern humans tread. Jeremy’s miraculous recovery and life lessons learned when so close to death show that human determination can defy the greatest of odds, and that setting small goals along the road to ...

A Year of Biblical Womanhood - Rachel Held Evans

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERHave you ever wondered what God truly expects of women? Is there really a prescription for biblical womanhood? Does the Bible''s idea of womanhood have a place in modern Christianity? New York Times bestselling author Rachel Held Evans embarks on a year-long study of what it means to live by the standards of biblical womanhood. Strong-willed and independent, Evans couldn''t sew a button on a blouse before she embarked on a radical life experiment--a year of biblical womanhood. Intrigued by the traditionalist resurgence that led many of her friends to abandon their careers to assume traditional gender roles in the home, Evans decided to try it for herself, vowing to take all of the Bible''s instructions for women as literally as possible for a full year.Along the way, Evans explores the rich heritage of scriptural heroines, models of grace, and all-around women of valor that we come to know in the Bible. She consults with women who practice these ancient biblical mandates in their own lives--from an Orthodox Jewish woman who changed the way Evans reads the Bible to an Amish community that taught her the true meaning of modesty.In A Year of Biblical Womanhood, Evans shares ...

Walker Evans - Svetlana Alpers

A magisterial study of celebrated photographer Walker EvansWalker Evans (1903–75) was a great American artist photographing people and places in the United States in unforgettable ways. He is known for his work for the Farm Security Administration, addressing the Great Depression, but what he actually saw was the diversity of people and the damage of the long Civil War. In Walker Evans, renowned art historian Svetlana Alpers explores how Evans made his distinctive photographs. Delving into a lavish selection of Evans’s work, Alpers uncovers rich parallels between his creative approach and those of numerous literary and cultural figures, locating Evans within the wide context of a truly international circle. Alpers demonstrates that Evans’s practice relied on his camera choices and willingness to edit multiple versions of a shot, as well as his keen eye and his distant straight-on view of visual objects. Illustrating the vital role of Evans’s dual love of text and images, Alpers places his writings in conversation with his photographs. She brings his techniques into dialogue with the work of a global cast of important artists—from Flaubert and Baudelaire to Elizabeth Bishop and William Faulkner—underscoring how Evans’s travels abroad in such places as France and Cuba, along ...

Griffith Evans 1835-1935 - Gavin Gatehouse

The life and career of forgotten Welsh veterinary surgeon, medic and adventurer? Griffith Evans, who discovered that blood parasites cause disease and met Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant. In 1880, Welsh army veterinary surgeon Griffith Evans made the groundbreaking discovery that blood parasites, then universally considered benign, were pathogenic. This was a crucial milestone in the battle against parasitic diseases in animals and humans, but Evans was spurned by his peers and colleagues. His conclusions from experiments with diseased horses were acknowledged by Koch and Pasteur, but it took many years before his achievement received general recognition. Long ignored and forgotten, restoring Evans to his rightful eminence is important for the history of veterinary and medical science in general, and Welsh science in particular. Evans’s talent for engagement with people and cultures characterized his life in Canada and India. During a long and productive retirement in north Wales, he immersed himself in local and national affairs. At his centenary in 1935, Evans received the accolades of his profession, community, and family, dying peacefully in his hundredth year. Since that time, his name has faded into obscurity.

Walker Evans: Last Photographs & Life Stories - Michael Lesy

In 1973, Michael Lesy was a young scholar whose first book had just been published. In the soon-legendary Wisconsin Death Trip he combined 1890s photographs and newspaper clippings to evoke a devastatingly tragic epoch, the real-world antithesis of the fanciful "Gay Nineties." It startled readers then and remains a touchstone of modern photographic interpretation.That year Lesy met and became close friends with the great photographer Walker Evans, who in the 1930s had collaborated with writer James Agee to create another towering landmark in the American photo-essay, Let Us Now Praise Famous Men. Old, frail, with just two years left to live, Evans was still urgently and obsessively photographing. "Outside the rooms he inhabited," Lesy writes, "the world was scattered with objects on their way to oblivion. He photographed them in their passage." Brief as their friendship was, it was intense and rewarding. Each admired the other; each saw himself reflected in the other: aesthetic visionaries who shared a radical belief that photographs were not flat and static documents—that "the plain truth of the images . . . wasn’t as plain as it seemed," Lesy explains. "Meanings, beliefs, and emotions lay crisscrossed under the surface of the most plainspoken photographs." Throughout ... Unknown localization key: "more"

And as a result, he''s got one or two things to tell us about how it all works; and being Jeremy Clarkson he''s not about to voice them quietly, humbly and without great dollops of humour.In The World According to Clarkson, he reveals why it is that:Too much science is bad for our health''70s rock music is nothing to be ashamed ofHunting foxes while drunk and wearing night-sights is neither big nor cleverWe must work harder to get rid of cricketHe likes the Germans (well, sometimes)With a strong dose of common sense that is rarely, if ever, found inside the M25, Clarkson hilariously attacks the pompous, the ridiculous, the absurd and the downright idiotic, whilst also celebrating the eccentric, the clever and the sheer bloody brilliant.Less a manifesto for living and more a road map to modern life, The World According to Clarkson is the funniest book you''ll read this year. Don''t leave home without it.

Diddly Squat - Jeremy Clarkson

Welcome to Clarkson's farm. It's an idyllic spot, offering picturesque views across the Cotswolds, bustling hedgerows, woodlands and natural springs. Jeremy always liked the idea being a farmer. But, while he was barrelling around the world having more fun with cars than was entirely reasonable, it seemed obvious that the actual, you know, farming was much better left to someone else Then one day he decided he would do the farming himself. After all, how hard could it be? Well . . . Faced with suffocating red tape, biblical weather, local objections, a global pandemic and his own frankly staggering ignorance of how to 'do farming', Jeremy soon realises that turning the farm round is going to take more than splashing out on a massive tractor. Fortunately, there's help at hand from a large and (mostly) willing team including girlfriend Lisa, Kaleb the Tractor Driver, Cheerful Charlie, Ellen the Shepherd and Gerald, his Head of Security and Dry Stone Waller. Between them they enthusiastically cultivate crops, rear livestock and hens, keep bees, bottle spring water and open a farm shop. But profits remain elusive. And yet while the farm may be called Diddly Squat for good reason, Jeremy soon begins ... Unknown localization key: "more"

And in setting about addressing this most vexing of questions, Paxman discovers answers to a few others. Like: Why do the English actually enjoy feeling persecuted?What is behind the English obsession with games?How did they acquire their odd attitudes to sex and to food?Where did they get their extraordinary capacity for hypocrisy?Covering history, attitudes to foreigners, sport, stereotypyes, language and much, much more, The English brims over with stories and anecdotes that provide a fascinating portrait of a nation and its people.''Intelligent, well-written, informative and funny...A book to chew on, dip into, quote from and exploit in arguments'' Andrew Marr, Observer ''Bursting with good things'' Daily Telegraph Jeremy Paxman is a journalist, best known for his work presenting Newsnight and University Challenge.

As I Was Saying . . . - Jeremy Clarkson

Crikey, the world according to Clarkson''s been a funny old place of late . . .For a while, Jeremy could be found in his normal position as the tallest man on British television but, more recently, he appears to have been usurped by a pretend elephant.But on paper the real Jeremy remains at the helm. That''s as it should be. For nearly thirty years he has been fearlessly leading the charge as one the best comic writers in the country. And in 2015, he shows no sign of slowing down.

Diddly Squat: Home to Roost - Jeremy Clarkson

Welcome back to Clarkson's Farm.So, that went well ...The spring barley crop failed. Just like the oil seed rape. And the durum wheat.Then the oats turned the colour of a hearing aid and the mushrooms went mouldy. Farming sheep, pigs and cows was hardly more lucrative. Jeremy would be better off trying to breed ostriches.But in the face of uncooperative weather, the relentless realities of the agricultural economy, bureaucracy, a truculent local planning department and the world's persistent refusal to recognise his ingenuity and genius, our hero's not beaten yet.Not while the farm shop's still doing a roaring trade in candles that smell like his knacker hammock, he isn't.On the face of it, the challenges of making a success of Diddly Squat are enough to have you weeping into your (Hawkstone) beer, but misery loves company and in girlfriend Lisa, Farm Manager Kaleb, Cheerful Charlie and Gerald his Head of Security Jeremy knows he's got the best. And it's hard for a chap to feel too gloomy about things when there's a JCB telehandler, a crop-spraying hovercraft and a digger in the barn.Because as a wise man* once said, 'there's no man alive who wouldn't have fun with a digger ...

Zecharia Sitchin - Mimozemský původ lidstva - M. J. Evans

"Žádný jiný moderní myslitel nenabídl přesvědčivější, ucelenější a vlivnější vysvětlení původu lidstva než Zecharia Sitchin. Miliony lidí porozuměly skrze jeho objevy a nálezy historii lidstva. Nyní nám - naštěstí - M. J. Evans udělala nesmírnou laskavost tím, že celé Sitchinovo dílo shrnula do velmi čitelného resumé. Všichni bychom měli být velice vděční." John L. Petersen, futurista, autor a vydavatel ve FUTUREdition Zecharia Sitchin (1920-2010), známý svými provokativními interpretacemi starověkých sumerských a akkadských hliněných desek, četl slova našich nejstarších předků jako fakta a po desetiletí pečlivého výzkumu ukázal, že tyto starodávné tabulky odhalují ucelený příběh o mimozemských obyvatelích Země a počátcích moderního lidstva. M. J. Evans, Ph.D., dlouholetá Sitchinova přítelkyně a kolegyně, čerpala z mnoha rozhovorů se Zecharia Sitchinem z období téměř 20 let a poskytuje hloubkovou analýzu Sitchinových objevů o Anunnacích se zaměřením na jejich aktivity na Zemi a budoucnost Země. Zkoumá genezi Sitchinova zájmu o nefily, vůdce Anunnaků, a kontroverze vyvolané vydáním Sitchinovy první knihy Dvanáctá planeta. Zkoumá také jeho výzkum rodokmenu nefilů, příchod Anunnaků na Zemi za těžbou zlata za účelem opravy atmosféry na jejich planetě Nibiru, vytvoření moderních lidí jako pracovníků jejich dolů a budování jejich civilizace na Zemi.

Harold Evans has edited everything from the urgent files of battlefield reporters to the complex thought processes of Henry Kissinger, and he has been knighted for his services to journalism. In Do I Make Myself Clear?, his definitive guide to writing well, Evans brings his indispensable insight to the art of clear communication.The right words are oxygen to our ideas, but the digital era, with all of its TTYL, LMK and WTF, has been cutting off that oxygen flow. The compulsion to be precise has vanished from our culture, and in writing of all kinds we see a trend towards more - more speed and more information, but far less clarity. Evans provides practical examples of how editing and rewriting can make for better communication, even in the digital age. Do I Make Myself Clear? is an essential text, and one that will provide every reader an editor at their shoulder.

Bible Stories - Gavin Evans

Beginning with the rise of modern Pentecostalism before tracking back 2,500 years, author and academic Gavin Evans traces the history of the Abrahamic faiths, Christianity, Judaism and Islam. In this book he explores the New Testament, Hebrew Bible and the Qur'an. Delving into recent archaeological research, Bible Stories presents evidence that tales such as those of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and also Moses, Joshua and the Exodus, were entirely mythological. Robust interrogation of the evidence allows Evans to go further still, casting doubt on the Jesus story and arguing that even if he did exist as a historical figure, we know next to nothing about him. As well as examining these key religious texts, Bible Stories also holds modern atheism to account. Critiquing the work of some of its most ardent advocates, Evans rejects a militant approach and makes a compelling argument for a softer, more tolerant atheism.
