Summiting Spiritual Mountains
by Richardson, Robin Lee       
(Paperback - English - 9781736268704)
Often in His Word, we find a significant spiritual event, spiritual parable or spiritual truth when one of His mountains is mentioned. Considered by many to be the deadliest mountain in Colorado, there have been nearly 70 deaths on Colorado's Longs Peak mountain. Unbeknownst to me, God had been planning for my summit of Longs Peak decades before it was even in my thoughts. Join me, a 61 year old who had never before attempted to summit a mountain, in climbing to the summit of Longs Peak. "Summiting Spiritual Mountains" takes you on a journey into the amazing parallels that exist when comparing the physical, mental, and emotional elements of ascending one of Hi ..

'First Summer in the Sierra' by John Muir: Edited and annotated by Dr L de B Anderson
by Muir, John    de B. Anderson, Laurence   
(Paperback - English - 9781720870357)
John Muir was America's greatest preservationist. In the summer of 1869 he took 2500 sheep into the Sierra, kindling a love affair with the region that never waned. This, his first book on the area, shows his ecstatic response and keen observation, talents that would shape the way we see the natural world. Dr Anderson has edited this seminal work for a 21st century audience, clarifying Muir's sometimes turgid prose and obscure biblical and scientific references without losing the vitality of the original. ..

Birds of Town and Village
by Hudson, W. H.       
(Paperback - English - 9781546551973)
Birds of Town and Village is an English bird reference book. It is more than a mere reprint of Birds in a Village first published in 1893. That was my first book about bird life, with some impressions of rural scenes, in England; and, as is often the case with a first book, its author has continued to cherish a certain affection for it. On this account it pleased me when its turn came to be reissued, since this gave me the opportunity of mending some faults in the portions retained and of throwing out a good deal of matter which appeared to me not worth keeping. W. H. Hudson ..

Mountains: The Origins of the Earth's Mountain Systems
by Park, Graham       
(Hardcover - English - 9781780460666)
'Outstanding Academic Title' Choice, magazine of the Association of College & Research Libraries, American Library Association.Most mountains on Earth occur within relatively well-defined, narrow belts separated by wide expanses of much lower-lying ground. Their distribution is not random but is caused by the now well-understood geological processes of plate tectonics. Some mountains mark the site of a former plate collision - where one continental plate has ridden up over another, resulting in a zone of highly deformed and elevated rocks. Others are essentially volcanic in origin.The most obvious mountain belts today - the Himalayas, the Alps and the Andes, for ..

The Valley of Flowers: An Adventure in the Upper Himalaya
by Smythe, Frank S.       
(Paperback - English - 9789385288722)
In 1931, a party of British mountaineers-including Frank S.

One Hundred Mountains of Japan
by Fukada, Kyūya    Hood, Martin    Skov, Peter
(Paperback - English - 9780824847524)

The mountain's inexhaustible treasury of riches is like some endless storybook with its pages uncut. As one follows the rambling plot along, one is always looking forward to reading more. Every page yields things never found in other books. Ontake is that kind of mountain." One Hundred Mountains is that kind of book. "Nowhere in the world do people hold mountains in so much regard as in Japan," observed the author, Kyūya Fukada, in the afterword to his most famous work.

Ice, Fire, and Nutcrackers: A Rocky Mountain Ecology
by Constantz, George       
(Paperback - English - 9781607813620)
Why do quaking aspens grow in prominent clumps rather than randomly scattered across the landscape? Why and how does a rufous hummingbird drop its metabolism to one-hundredth of its normal rate? Why do bull elk grow those enormous antlers? Using his experience as a biologist and ecologist, George Constantz illuminates these remarkable slices of mountain life in plain but engaging language. Whether it sketches conflict or cooperation, surprise or familiarity, each story resolves when interpreted through the theory of evolution by natural selection. These provocative accounts of birds, insects, rodents, predators, trees, and flowers are sure to stir the reader's ..
