Indeed, it was the flame that transformed the way life was lived on earth, but now that primary driver of evolution finds itself being extinguished in a modern world of microwaves, induction hobs and central heating. Gradually the flames are going out, as houses are now built without fireplaces, bonfires are banned, and schoolchildren are forbidden to use the Bunsen burner. But the sight of a flame remains as evocative as ever.The Art of Chopping and Burning Wood wants to inspire, and teach, looking at the history of fire and showing the wonders that the burning flame can conjure.

Poignant, warm, gut wrenching and hopeful, this book is just beautiful. - 5* reader review***â ˜Excuse me,â ™ the man interrupted her as if there was absolutely nothing she could say to comfort him. â ˜I have to get on with my digging.â ™ Then he stabbed violently at her sketchbook with his finger. â ˜Get it all down,â ™ he snarled. â ˜Every single disgusting, pathetic detail. And shove it in their faces.â ™London, 1940Following a chance meeting with her former teacher, young painter Sybil Paige wins a coveted assignment from the War Artists Advisory Committee, and so begins her journey across the length and breadth of the country, sketching everything from airfields and assembly lines to farms and factories.Sometimes itâ ™s milkmaids and poultry keepers, brave and hopeful; sometimes itâ ™s the harrowed faces of those digging through the rubble to find their loved ones and livelihoods. But armed with her sketchbook, Sybil captures it all, determined to tell the stories of the thousands of women fighting their own battles on the home front. Above all, she wants the voices of her subjects to shine through.But amidst the scenes of despair and courage, the one picture Sybil cannot paint and yet cannot purge from her brain, no matter how hard she tries, is the image of a woman folded into a chair, the crumpled telegram about her missing husband clasped in her hand. Because a self-portrait, Sybil well knows, requires the artist to find her own voice.With each new commission, Sybil grows in confidence. But, like the many people she meets and sketches, she fears the future: will it bring hope or heartbreak?***Readers love THE WAR ARTIST I read this over 2 days, unable to tear myself away.

The story is told from the perspective of Marosa Vetalda, Crown Princess of Yscalin. Living in the capital city of Cárscaro, Marosa is still in mourning her beloved mother, Queen Sahar, who died under mysterious circumstances. Her cold and highhanded father, King Sigoso, allows her little freedom. She hopes her marriage to Prince Aubrecht of Mentendon will give her more power to determine her own fate. She often writes to Queen Sabran, who she remembers fondly from the last time she was allowed to visit Inys.Draconic creatures have been slowly waking in the mountains around Cárscaro, which Sigoso has concealed from his people. One night, an earthquake racks the city, and the wyrm Fýredel – leader of the Draconic Army – awakens for the first time since the Grief of Ages. In a single terrifying night, the capital falls to a flock of wyverns. Fýredel makes a puppet of Sigoso, leaving Marosa a prisoner in her own home, forced to swear allegiance to the Nameless One. All ambassadors are stopped from leaving. The Privy Council sends out birds to announce the conversion, and lava breaks into the city, creating a river of fire.Over the ensuing months, Fýredel sends his wyverns out to raze Yscalin, making sure no trace remains of the Six Virtues of Knightood. Marosa tries in vain to ask her former allies for aid, but no bird can leave the city without being killed. The people begin to suffer from the Draconic plague, formerly known as the red sickness, which has leaked into their water supply. Marosa slowly falls into despair, hoping that Prince Aubrecht will come for her, but knowing he likely thinks her complicit.A woman named Jondu is brought to the palace and tortured in the dungeon. She entrusts Marosa with a strange box, pleading with her to get it to the Erysri envoy, Chassaruq-Ispad. In desperation, Marosa approaches Lord Wilstan Fynch, the Inysh ambassador (and father of Queen Sabran), and asks him to do it for her, not wanting to leave her people. Fynch agrees, but loses his nerve at the last second, abandoning the box and making a doomed attempt to escape to Inys. When she realises that Fynch has failed, Marosa loses all hope.

*Winner of the British Academy Book Prize 2025**Winner of the the Dayton Literary Peace Prize for Nonfiction 2025* â ˜Dazzlingâ ¦ brilliantâ ¦ exactly the kind of history that we need on our crisis-ridden planetâ ™ - Tom Simpson, TLSIn this paradigm-shifting global history of how humanity has reshaped the planet, and the planet has shaped human history, Sunil Amrith twins the stories of environment and Empire, of genocide and eco-cide, of the expansion of human freedom and its costs. Drawing on an extraordinarily rich diversity of primary sources, he reckons with the ruins of Spanish silver mining in Peru, British gold mining in South Africa, and oil extraction in Central Asia. He explores the railways and highways that brought humans to new terrains of battle against each other and against nature. Amrithâ ™s account of the ways in which the First and Second World Wars involved the massive mobilization not only of men, but of other natural resources from around the globe, provides an essential new way of understanding war as an irreversible reshaping of the planet. He also reveals the reality of migration as consequence of environmental harm. The imperial, globe-spanning pursuit of profit, joined with new forms of energy and new possibilities of freedom from hunger and discomfort, freedom to move and explore, has brought change to every inch of the Earth. Amrith relates, on the largest canvas, a mind-altering epic â “ vibrant with stories, characters, and vivid images â “ in which humanity might find the collective wisdom to save itself.
