Book Description
The incredible novel of one woman's quest to save her people - and her world. Now updated with all-new material and a reading-group discussion guide. It comes without warning, without explanation - the sudden deadly Stink that shreds the life of the People, poisoning the land, sickening the trees, killing babies in the womb. It comes from above, from the Plains of the Ancestors, but what has caused this murderous curse? It falls to Pyn-Poi to find out. The young tree-woman must climb the unclimbable cliff, to face the Ancestors on their own ground and demand an accounting for the Stink. But the end of the climb is just the beginning of Pyn-Poi's journey. What she finds in the world above is an abomination beyond the most fearsome fire-stories of the People - and she must defeat it, or face the extinction of everything she has ever loved. Praise for The Night Field 'Simple, beautiful prose' Scott T. Barnes, editor of NewMyths.com magazine 'Masterful storytelling' Karin Lacey, The Uncommon Octopus 'Beautifully written, poetic' Susan Sachs, climate education mentor

Open-Field Farming in Medieval Europe
Author: Warren Ault
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136583351
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
This book presents a detailed account of the co-operative practice of agriculture in medieval England, shedding much light on how medieval villagers governed their own affairs. During this period co-operation was essential in ploughing, sowing and reaping, with communal control of the pasturing of the fallow and stubble. These practices were set out in customary by-laws which were agreed to by common consent and villages themselves were greatly involved with their enactment and enforcement. In the course of time, many of the by-laws were put into writing. Professor Ault has travelled extensively throughout England collecting and researching these agrarian ordinances and translating them into modern English. Since it was first published in 1972 this analysis has provided new insight into the organizational structure and governance of medieval villages in England and is essential reading for all those interested in the history of the Middle Ages.
