The French Ingredient: Making a Life in Paris One Lesson at a Time; A Memoir by Jane Bertch
English | April 9, 2024 | ISBN: 0593500423 | 304 pages | PDF | 10 Mb
The inspiring and delicious memoir of an American woman who had the gall to open a cooking school in Paris-a true story of triumphing over French naysayers and falling in love with a city along the way
"An engaging, multilayered story of a woman navigating innumerable cultural differences to build a life in Paris and create her dream: to establish a French cooking school."-David Lebovitz, author of My Paris Kitchen
When Jane Bertch was seventeen, her mother took her on a graduation trip to Paris. Thrilled to use her high school French, Jane found her halting attempts greeted with withering condescension by every waiter and shopkeeper she encountered. At the end of the trip, she vowed she would never return.
Yet a decade later she found herself back in Paris, transferred there by the American bank she worked for. She became fluent in the language and excelled in her new position. But she had a different dream: to start a cooking school for foreigners like her, who wanted to take a few classes in French cuisine in a friendly setting, then bring their new skills to their kitchens back home. Predictably, Jane faced the skeptical French-how dare an American banker start a cooking school in Paris?-as well as real-estate nightmares, and a long struggle to find and attract clients.
Thanks to Jane's perseverance, La Cuisine Paris opened in 2009. Now the school is thriving, welcoming international visitors to come in and knead dough, whisk bechamel, whip meringue, and learn the care, precision, patience, and beauty involved in French cooking.
The French Ingredient is the story of a young female entrepreneur building a life in a city and culture she grew to love. As she established her school, Jane learned how to charm, how to project confidence, and how to give it right back to rude waiters. Having finally made peace with the city she swore to never revisit,she now offers a love letter to France, and a master class in Parisian cooking-and living.

Judith A. Markowitz, "The Gay Detective Novel: Lesbian and Gay Main Characters and Themes in Mystery Fiction"
English | ISBN: 0786419571 | 2004 | 312 pages | PDF | 10 MB
Gertrude Stein called it "the only really modern novel form that has come into existence," yet the mystery genre was a century old before it featured its first gay main character in a novel. Since then, gay and lesbian detective fiction has been one of the fastest growing segments of the genre. It incorporates gay and lesbian cultural elements and offers crossover appeal. Its authors call upon a century of development in the mystery genre, while providing new, more accurate images of lesbians and gay men than generally found in mainstream literature and popular media.
This groundbreaking study of gay and lesbian detective fiction examines mystery series and historically significant stand-alone novels published since the early 1960s. Part I is an overview that describes how these novels make gay and lesbian life visible and forge new, powerful images. It also examines how they fit into the larger history of mystery fiction. The series analyses in Part II are grouped according to the type of main character (police officer, private investigator, amateur sleuth, etc.). Each section discusses main and secondary characters of that type, characteristic themes for the group, and more. The analyses of individual series cover main characters, themes, Description points and other elements. Comments from authors interviewed for this book play a central role in those analyses. Part III lists series-spanning themes (e.g., homophobia, the closet, gay marriage) and the novels and series that address each of those themes.

Michael Shattock, "The Governance of British Higher Education: The Impact of Governmental, Financial and Market Pressures "
English | ISBN: 1350074020 | 2019 | 224 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Forms of institutional governance critically shape the culture, creativity and academic outcomes of higher education. The book provides a new, updated and research based account of the changing face of the governance of British higher education. Historically, British universities were deemed amongst the most, if not the most, autonomous in Europe, with governance rooted in their collegial disciplinary structures. This assessment must now be decisively revised, although the belief systems deriving from it remain buried deep in university culture.
Drawing on the authors' investigation of the governance of higher education in the four UK nations, including extensive on-site interviews, and discussions with government policy-makers, the book shows how global, national and system level pressures have changed the face both of the external governance of higher education institutions and how universities govern themselves. Government priorities, new funding methodologies and marketisation have all played a part in this process. Since the mid-1980s, there have been drastic changes in the external environment, reinforced by the increasing diversity within the higher education system as a whole and between the national sub-systems. In addition a new private sector of higher education has been created. New forms of institutional governance are emerging which may have profound effects on research and teaching and on academic creativity and innovation. The study discusses the effects of a state regulated system compared with the more heterarchical system which preceded it. It offers a comparison of the effects of devolved governance to Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland on the respective higher education systems and their impact on institutional governance. The study concludes that England is becoming increasingly an outlier, and discusses the long term implications for the coherence of a British higher education system.

The History of Fore Wood, Crowhurst, East Sussex by David EP Dennis
English | September 5, 2023 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0CHK18V4S | 119 pages | EPUB | 59 Mb
Fore Wood is a jewel in the treasury of English woodlands.
This wonderful example of a Western Oak Wood in the east of England has a long history as part of the giant forest of Anderida covering southern England, first with birch after the last ice age and then with mighty oaks. Its underlying geology is not chalk, but ironstone, a type of sandstone. Because the oaks and hornbeams offer homes to so many different kinds of wildlife, and because the woodland understorey is carefully managed, Fore Wood has become a place where Silver-washed Fritillary and White Admiral butterflies can be seen flying and feeding together in high summer. The range of wildlife is considerable, from dormice to deer, and includes Golden-ringed dragonflies, Kingfishers, Woodcocks, Tawny Owls, Redwings, the Nuthatch and Treecreeper, and even Stoats.
The land on which Fore Wood stands and the fascinating landscape surrounding it is rich in historical associations. Ownership has widened over the course of time, from Stone Age tribes to Iron Age settlements, then the Romans, and on to Anglo-Saxon woodsmen and their families. In 1066, the King of England, Harold Godwinsson, who owned the wood, was tragically cut down by the Normans, along with his brothers, Gyrth and Leofwine. Fore Wood is within easy riding distance of the assumed site of the Battle of Hastings and this book discusses aspects of the Norman invasion with possible links to the wood and the notorious Malfosse Ditch incident. Inevitably from 31st December 1066, Fore Wood's masters became a series of Norman lords. Medieval ownership followed, then Rother District and Crowhurst Parish Councils of today took up the reins. The Final phase of ownership has been by the excellent nature conservation organisation, the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB).
In each of these ownership phases, the trees and wildlife have continued to be special and the link to the caring people of Crowhurst, East Sussex is still strong. The combination of RSPB ownership and wildlife environment, together with the ironstone and ghyll ravines of the Wood, has made this place a real wonder of peace and fascination, and in autumn, a cathedral of light a colour. I hope you enjoy reading about it. May you visit it one day.

The History of Ideas: Equality, Justice and Revolution by David Runciman
English | July 4th, 2024 | ISBN: 1800815905 | 320 pages | PDF | 2.10 Mb
In this bold new follow-up to Confronting Leviathan, David Runciman unmasks modern politics and reveals the great men and women of ideas behind it.
What can Samuel Butler's ideas teach us about the oddity of how we choose to organise our societies? How did Frederick Douglass not only expose the horrors of slavery, but champion a new approach to abolishing it? Why should we tolerate snobbery, betrayal and hypocrisy, as Judith Shklar suggested? And what does Friedrich Nietzsche predict for our future?
From Rousseau to Rawls, fascism to feminism and pleasure to anarchy, this is a mind-bending tour through the history of ideas which will forever change your view of politics today.

The Industrial Revolution by History by the Hour
English | March 29, 2020 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B086L6FMZJ | EPUB | 3.97 Mb
In this one-hour history book, discover how the Industrial Revolution changed the course of World history and leaded to modern times!
Free bonus inside!
When you hear the term "industrial revolution," do you think of the one that happened in the 1800s? You probably suppose that was the only one, since that is what many of us, even today, learn in school. Would it surprise you to know there were actually four industrial revolutions, all with their own character, advancements, and contributions to the world we live in?
The most well-known, of course, is the first industrial revolution, which started to happen around 1765. This is when mechanization changed traditional methods of farming and manufacturing. This period saw the birth of the cotton gin and the steam engine. In school, we may not have learned how child labor helped to propel these innovations, but you'll read about that here.
The second industrial revolution (1870) was characterized by advancements in the technologies used in manufacturing processes, such as using alternate forms of power like electricity. It was during this second revolution that the phonograph was invented and the telegraph was put into use. Bicycles and automobiles went from having wooden wheels to those made of rubber, and Goodyear became a household name.
The third (1969) and fourth revolutions are about computers and the sharing of information across digital space. Do you know how the World Wide Web came to be?
We are currently living in the fourth revolution, and witnessing unprecedented advancements in medicine, robotics, and other applications of artificial intelligence. We've seen the introduction of "smart phones," and the use of robots in surgical procedures.
Who knows what else may lie on the horizons of our lifetimes? As people must have thought at the inception of the first industrial revolution, the possibilities are endless.
This short-read book is a perfect introduction to the industrial Revolutions that have completely changed the course of history. After reading this one-hour book, you will know the main events of the four industrial revolutions and their impacts on the World we live in

The Korean War by A. G. Taylor, History by the Hour
English | July 25, 2021 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B09B842DWW | 51 pages | EPUB | 2.06 Mb
In this one-hour history book, discover how the Korean war changed the course of history and its impacts on the World.
Out of all the conflicts that the United States has been involved with, the Korean War stands as one of the least discussed. Yet despite the fact that the Korean War is easily overshadowed by both World War II and the Vietnam War, this little-known conflict was actually one of the most pivotal. The war that took place on the Korean Peninsula in the early 1950s was one of the first great tests of the Cold War. The North Korean regime was backed by both the Soviet Union and communist China in its efforts to take over the U.S.-backed budding democracy of South Korea.
Ever since the end of World War II, the Korean Peninsula had been split in half along the 38th parallel, and the U.S. took on the role of making sure that South Korea was able to hold the line in the face of communist aggression. It took much blood and sacrifice to deter the communist North, but in the end, the U.S. and its allies were successful.
It remains debatable just how much the history of the free world has depended upon the successful stabilization of South Korea. Without these efforts, the economic powerhouse of South Korea that the world has come to know today certainly would not have been possible. This book explores the lead-up to the Korean war, the conflict itself, and the continuing aftermath of this ongoing struggle between North and South Korea.

Brian Hannan, "The Making of The Magnificent Seven: Behind the Scenes of the Pivotal Western"
English | ISBN: 0786496959 | 2015 | 288 pages | PDF | 79 MB
The story behind The Magnificent Seven could have been a movie in itself. It had everything-actors' strike, writers' strike, Mexican government interference and a row between the screenwriters that left one removing his name from the credits, all under the lingering gloom of post-McCarthy era Hollywood. A flop on release, it later became a box office hit.
This book tells the behind-the-scenes story: how Yul Brynner became the biggest independent producer in Hollywood; why John Sturges was not the first choice after Brynner surrendered the director's chair; why Sturges quit; the truth about the Mirisch Company (producers); the details of the film's botched release and unlikely redemption; the creation of Elmer Bernstein's classic score; and how internecine fighting prevented the making of the television series in 1963.

Bruce D. Epperson, "The Moulton Bicycle: A History of the Innovative Compact Design"
English | ISBN: 147667325X | 2018 | 229 pages | EPUB | 12 MB
In 1963, British inventor Alex Moulton (1920-2012) introduced an innovative compact bicycle. Architectural Review editor Reyner Banham (1922-1988) predicted it would give rise to "a new class of cyclists," young urbanites riding by choice, not necessity. Forced to sell his firm in 1967, Moulton returned in the 1980s with an even more radical model, the AM-his acclaim among technology and design historians owed much to Banham's writings.
The AM's price tag (some models cost many thousands of dollars) has inspired tech-savvy cyclists to create "hot rod" compact bikes from Moulton-inspired "shopper" cycles of the 1970s-a trend also foreseen by Banham, who considered hot rod culture the "folk art of the mechanical era."

*A NEW YORK TIMES PICK FOR TOP 22 NONFICTION BOOKS TO READ THIS FALL!*
A Navajo Ranger's chilling and clear-eyed memoir of his investigations into bizarre cases of the paranormal and unexplained in Navajoland
As a Native American with parents of both Navajo and Cherokee descent, Stanley Milford Jr. grew up in a world where the supernatural was both expected and taboo, where shapeshifters roamed, witchcraft was a thing to be feared, and children were taught not to whistle at night.
In his youth, Milford never went looking for the paranormal, but it always seemed to find him. When he joined the fabled Navajo Rangers-a law enforcement branch of the Navajo Nation who are equal parts police officers, archeological conservationists, and historians-the paranormal became part of his job. Alongside addressing the mundane duties of overseeing the massive 27,000-square-mile reservation, Milford was assigned to utterly bizarre and shockingly frequent cases involving mysterious livestock mutilations, skinwalker and Bigfoot sightings, UFOs, and malicious hauntings.
In The Paranormal Ranger, Milford recounts the stories of these cases from the clinical and deductive perspective of a law enforcement officer. Milford's Native American worldview and investigative training collide to provide an eerie account of what logic dictates should not be possible.

The Place We Make: Breaking the Legacy of Legalized Hate by Sarah L. Sanderson, Chanté Griffin
English | August 15, 2023 | ISBN: 0593444736 | 256 pages | PDF | 6.27 Mb
A thoughtful investigation into the incredible true story of a Black man convicted and exiled under the Oregon Exclusion Law in 1851-and a contemporary White woman wrestling with racism and faith after learning she's a descendant of two men who assisted in the exile.
"A beautiful rendering of an ugly history. A worthy read."-Chanté Griffin, advocate, journalist, and author
A SOJOURNERS BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR
Moving back to the outskirts of Portland, called the "Whitest city in America," prompted Sarah's curiosity about the colonization of the West, her ancestors, and the legal exile of a Black man. She examined four city leaders involved in Jacob Vanderpool's case-Oregon City's founder, the case judge, Jacob's accuser, and a local pastor-and the cultural and theological fallout of their decisions. Along the way, Sarah took a hard look at her tendencies, unconscious and deliberate, to ignore the possibility of prejudice in her heart.
Vanderpool's case proved a fascinating lens on a far bigger story than one trial, illuminating truths to help us all come to honest terms with our past, learn to repent, and contribute to the good of the people and places around us.
Journey through this sensitive expedition into the events that remain a thorn under America's skin and discover afresh the vast potential of the flawed but endlessly redeemable-human heart.
