Book Description
Albania is the least-known and least developed country in Europe. It has a long, rich and troubled past, characterised by unrest and isolationism. Today, very little is known of its people - beyond those who have emigrated to other countries in Europe - and its landscapes have remained virtually untravelled for centuries. Determined to discover the country behind the stereotypes and preconceptions, Robin Hanbury-Tenison and his wife Louella rode across Albania, from Thethi in the north to the border with Greece in the south. Following in the footsteps of Byron, Edward Lear and Edith Durham they crossed some of the wildest and arrestingly beautiful landscape in Europe. Through soaring mountain ranges and hidden valleys dotted with Illyrian, Roman and Byzantine ruins, they lived simply, staying in the homes of communities untouched by the 21st century and in towns bursting with artistic creativity. They discovered an ancient land, proud and fiercely independent, struggling to emerge from the darkness of repression and poverty and from the shadows of its more popular neighbours. Land of Eagles is the story of a lyrical and dramatic journey, peppered with adventure, mishap, discovery and unexpected encounters. Adorned with the history, legends and literature of Albania and with the tales of past travellers, it is a luminous portrait of this mysterious and eccentric country, which has for too long been forgotten by Europe.

Book Description
Yeah it is right, that words are not like a bullet, and pens are not like a pistol, but still both users are human being. In both cases, they can do good or bad things with it, it depends on each person. I believe that, when any writer using their skills in a bad way or emphasizes rather than suggest their ideas in a quiet tone, they are deterioration our universe and filling it with hate, racism, phobia, and disloyalty. We should respect our differentiation and similarity between us. at least we have one culture "we are human being", and subculture stuff must not give us a prerogative to create a mess in this world. Through our writing, we should feed people with brotherhood, hospitality, and charity... etc. I am living under four colonizers country and that is not easy. But still i have faith that we can get our Freedom by peaceful activists. Definitely, i can say that if we hated each other, we will be empty from love, charity, faith, and life. That is why we should live like a baby, love everything in this world. And live like an old man, be aware from everything in this world.

The Golden Eagle
Author: Jeff Watson
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 1408134551
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 466
Book Description
This comprehensive monograph is a second edition of one of the most popular Poyser monographs. It covers all aspects of this spectacular eagle's biology and ecology, including a full review of the literature and incorporating the considerable body of research on the species since the publication of the first edition in 1997. The late Jeff Watson was one of Scotland's foremost eagle experts, with more than 20 years of research on the birds; following Jeff's untimely death, the book is being completed by his colleagues Des Thompson and Helen Riley. Scottish studies provide the foundation for a treatment that also includes up-to-date information from work in North America, continental Europe and elsewhere. This global view allows fascinating insights into the species' relationships with a variety of different habitats and leads to many new and important conclusions regarding its ecology. This highly readable and authoritative account is the standard reference on the species, both in Scotland and elsewhere in the world. The text is enriched with many superb pictures of this majestic bird and additional wash landscapes capture the very special atmosphere of Scotland's Golden Eagle country.
