The Complete Guide to Hunting, Butchering, and Cooking Wild Game: Volume 2: Small Game and Fowl n August 1914, polar explorer Ernest Shackleton boarded the Endurance and set sail for Antarctica, where he planned to cross the last uncharted continent on foot. In January 1915, after battling its way through a thousand miles of pack ice and only a day's sail short of its destination, the Endurance became locked in an island of ice. Thus began the legendary ordeal of Shackleton and his crew of twentyseven men. For ten months the ice-moored Endurance drifted northwest before it was finally crushed between two ice floes. With no options left, Shackleton and a skeleton crew attempted a near-impossible journey over 850 miles of the South Atlantic's heaviest seas to the closest outpost of civilization. Their survival, and the survival of the men they left behind, depended on their small lifeboat successfully finding the island of South Georgia-a tiny dot of land in a vast and hostile ocean. In Endurance, the definitive account of Ernest Shackleton's fateful trip, Alfred Lansing brilliantly narrates the harrowing and miraculous voyage that has defined heroism for the modern age.
A Beautiful Work In Progress Runners’ vocabulary is full of acronyms like DNS for “Did Not Start” and DNF for “Did Not Finish,” but when Mirna Valerio stepped up to the starting line, she needed a new one: DNQ for “Did Not Quit.” Valerio has tied on her running shoes all across the country, from the dusty back roads of central New Jersey to the busy Route 222 corridor in Pennsylvania to the sweltering deserts of Arizona. When you meet her on the trail, you might be surprised to see she doesn’t quite fit the typical image of a long-distance runner. She’s neither skinny nor white, and she’s here to show just how misguided these stereotypes can be. In this prejudice-busting, body-positive memoir told with raw honesty, an adventurous spirit, and a sharp sense of humor, Valerio takes readers along on her journey from first-time racer to ultramarathoner and proves that anyone can become a successful athlete.
Drag Hunt (Show Jumping Dreams ~ Book 45) Emily has won at her first show in Ireland. She has proved that she can compete and win in any country on any horse and she feels like she is sitting on top of the world. She has forgotten all about the drama back home, which was the reason she left in the first place. But Ireland hasn’t been all drama free. There is a girl who could pass as Jess’s twin, if she didn’t already have one, an Irish girl who holds a claim to Patrick, a claim that Emily doesn’t even want. She is not there to fall in love. At least not with the two-legged variety anyway. Instead a horse has stolen her heart, one who unfortunately Siobhan’s father holds a half share in. And now that the show is over, everyone is gearing up for the big drag hunt, a huge local deal. Emily will ride Victor and tackle some of the toughest terrain she has ever encountered. She may have dabbled in cross country but hunting in Ireland is an entirely different ball game, one where people fall off and horses gallop wild. To prove she is not a timid American rider, Emily will give Victor the ride of his life in hopes of somehow winning the heart of Patrick’s mother, who owns the other share in the horse and just maybe, convince her to send the horse back home with Emily to Florida.
