Book Description
Miranda doesn’t normally submit to letting life happen to her—so she’s going to chase after what she wants. And she wants Cyrus. Smart, sexy, and not afraid to change her life’s course, Miranda is a stunning self-made 24-year-old who left Las Vegas for a career outside of Boston, Massachusetts. However, she didn’t plan on reliving the thirst of the Nevada desert when she met her neighbor, the rugged, assertive, but caring Cyrus McManus. She only knows that she needs him to quench that thirst… Miranda’s not looking for love—so submitting herself to a no strings attached arrangement with the dominate New Englander is fine with her… until she wants his strings. After almost a decade, widower Cyrus McManus continues to struggle with the emotional aftermath of his wife’s death. Focusing his life as the father of teenage twins, he is content with the occasional fleeting one-night stand. The bearded author has closed himself off from the hope of romance forever—or so he thinks. Will Cyrus be the proper father figure who takes Miranda in hand or will he give her a new meaning of daddy issues?

Essays on lone trips, mountain-craft and other hill topics
Author: Adam Watson
Publisher: Paragon Publishing
ISBN: 1782224602
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 62
Book Description
This book begins with a thought-provoking article now reprinted, criticising the increasing influence of politically-correct organisations and politicians who desire to control freewill and mountaineering. Then comes a chapter with a critique of several writers on the Cairngorms in comparison with the original Seton Gordon. After the author published a review in 1977 on ‘The wildlife potential of the Cairngorms region’, he came under unwarranted attack by two influential private landowners who misrepresented what he wrote and even included a threat. A wider public should be aware of this. There follows an essay on biologist Professor Vero C. Wynne-Edwards, and another on the history of the research station near Banchory, established for studying at first red grouse and then ecological problems of mountain, moorland, woodland and fresh-water. The last chapter – the most important one and occupying a third of the book – gives the author’s lifetime view of the value of lone trips in climbing, ski-mountaineering and mountain-craft.

Frozen Fauna of the Mammoth Steppe
Author: R. Dale Guthrie
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022615971X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
Frozen mammals of the Ice Age, preserved for millennia in the tundra, have been a source of fascination and mystery since their first discovery over two centuries ago. These mummies, their ecology, and their preservation are the subject of this compelling book by paleontologist Dale Guthrie. The 1979 find of a frozen, extinct steppe bison in an Alaskan gold mine allowed him to undertake the first scientific excavation of an Ice Age mummy in North America and to test theories about these enigmatic frozen fauna. The 36,000-year-old bison mummy, coated with blue mineral crystals, was dubbed "Blue Babe." Guthrie conveys the excitement of its excavation and shows how he made use of evidence from living animals, other Pleistocene mummies, Paleolithic art, and geological data. With photographs and scores of detailed drawings, he takes the reader through the excavation and subsequent detective work, analyzing the animal's carcass and its surroundings, the circumstances of its death, its appearance in life, the landscape it inhabited, and the processes of preservation by freezing. His examination shows that Blue Babe died in early winter, falling prey to lions that inhabited the Arctic during the Pleistocene era. Guthrie uses information gleaned from his study of Blue Babe to provide a broad picture of bison evolutionary history and ecology, including speculations on the interactions of bison and Ice Age peoples. His description of the Mammoth Steppe as a cold, dry, grassy plain is based on an entirely new way of reading the fossil record.
