Jeremy Hall's childhood in the white-ruled apartheid South Africa of the 1950s and '60s was ostensibly idyllic: growing up in the farming areas of Natal, he had free rein to pander to his keen exploratory mind, yet niggling away was entrenched racism and interracial hatred.
The ultimate resource for birders visiting the ornithologically rich counties of Somerset, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire. Much has changed in the region since the previous edition of this book--the famous Avalon marshes, for example, have become one of Britain's finest hotspots for wetland birds, for example--but this brand-new fourth edition offers a completely updated review of all the major sites, and many more lesser known ones, with new text and fully revised maps throughout. Somerset, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire are among Britain's finest counties in terms of habitat diversity, and their avifaunas are comparatively rich as a result. Where to Watch Birds in Somerset, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire is indispensable for any birder looking to head out into this ornithologically special corner of England.
The history of China-- brilliantly told and brought vividly to life through more than 6,000 years of artifacts and treasures
When Helen disappears after a violent domestic episode and Jim, her abusive alcoholic husband, is later killed, their 13-year-old son, Bill, is left to run wild. Quick and resourceful, with help from his frail Uncle Paddy and the indomitable Aunty Jessie, he looks after his younger sister, Lizzie, to avoid her being taken into care. Helen's whereabouts is eventually discovered and a former 'digger', Jack, Helen's friend from her teenage years, takes Bill to find her. He also takes Bill under his wing and introduces him to the blood, sweat and dirt of country living, a sharp contrast to his former life on the Georges River. Bill and the farmer's precocious and sexually inquisitive daughter, Marlene begin a hazardous adolescent intimacy and Jack renews his relationship with Helen, surprising and gratifying both of them with its intensity. Set in 1950s Australia, this coming-of-age tale explores a young man's growing up and an older one's recovery from the terrible damage inflicted by WWII. Bill's entire world is coloured by the war that was over almost before he was born: Jack is slowly rebuilding his life and their two stories merge, but the spectre of Helen's violent past returns. Will she and her children survive the terror that is waiting for her?
