Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. From the author of the bestselling "Reading Women" comes "Women Who Write", a celebration of female literary achievement. Literature has traditionally been a male-dominated field. In the past it was common for women authors to adopt a male pseudonym in order to be taken seriously, and they were often forced to make a choice between writing and leading a conventional family life. This beautifully produced book brings together a compelling collection of paintings, drawings, prints and photographs of women writers through the ages, from Mary Wollstonecraft, George Sand and Jane Austen to Dorothy Parker, Simone de Beauvoir and Toni Morrison. Engaging commentaries present brief biographies of the writers depicted, discussing the highlights of their careers and the major themes of their work. An incisive introduction explores the history of women authors, examining the challenges they have faced in pursuit of their craft. "Women Who Write" features a diverse range of women writers from the Middle Ages to the present and is stunningly illustrated throughout, including beautiful reproductions of original manuscript pages.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Founded by Charles II 'for the succour and relief of veterans broken by age and war,' designed by Sir Christopher Wren, and opened in 1692, the Royal Hospital Chelsea, London, still serves its original purpose as lodgings for former soldiers. Today this historic site, with its elegant buildings and verdant grounds, is home to more than 300 'in-pensioners', men and, since 2009, women. Photographer Patricia Rodwell was granted rare, behind-the-scenes access to the Hospital and all its activities over the course of a year, and her evocative images reveal for the first time the daily lives of the in-pensioners and the staff at this world-renowned establishment, from the moving Founder's Day ceremony to scenes of light-hearted recreation, and from intimate moments in the in-pensioners' accommodation to fittings for their famous scarlet uniforms. The book also features an engaging introduction and informative captions, providing an absorbing insight into the history of this remarkable institution and the lives of its residents today.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. When the photographer Enzo Barracco decided to mount a photographic expedition to Antarctica, inspired by the example of Sir Ernest Shackleton, he had much more than simple cold to contend with. As the world's last empty continent, the snowy lands of the South Pole are a challenge for the most seasoned explorer, with their merciless winds, treacherous seas and vast sheets of ice. Even to arrive on the continent itself involves a perilous journey by sea from southern Argentina through the notoriously rough Drake Passage. THE NOISE OF ICE: ANTARCTICA explores what drove Barracco to embark on his journey, and tells the story of the expedition in words and astonishing photographs, all of them captured during the trip and many obtained in hazardous conditions. In his gripping text, Barracco explains how even his journey to Antarctica itself was undertaken with the essential help of an ice pilot, to spot and avoid icebergs that ship's radar can miss. He tells of how the waves on that first journey threw him to the deck and brought home how hostile such an environment is, and of his constant battle to protect his photographic equipment and all-important memory cards from the extreme cold. Most importantly, he explains that in capturing these beautiful landscapes, his intention is to remind us all of the precarious position in which this part of the world finds itself. As the explorer Sir Ranulph Fiennes puts it in his foreword to THE NOISE OF ICE, "witnessed by only a few, Antarctica should be enjoyed by many and protected by all".

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. This delightful anthology brings together a collection of wisdom, lyrical appreciation and practical experience about all aspects of living with dogs, and the dog's life, from more than 50 writers. Accompanied by wonderful illustrations by Christopher Brown, the extracts range from comic accounts of how skilfully dogs train their owners, to dramatic depictions of the savage side of the canine character, and poignant tales of the bond between people and dogs of all shapes, ages and sizes. From the wit of Alan Bennett, deploying the dog's comedic potential to add black humour to a dark work, to Virginia Woolf 's exquisite imagining, in Flush, of what it might mean to be a dog; from J.M. Coetzee's unflinching account of strays' lives to the moor-haunting mystery of Conan Doyle's legendary hound, there is something here to absorb and amuse anyone who has ever loved or longed for a dog.
