After proving to his friends that they can eat better outside and over fire than at home, he started sharing a few recipes on YouTube and social media.

Peter Hitchcock - Defender of Forests
His story protecting tall eucalypts and rainforests
By Peter Hitchcock, Lorraine Cairnes, Dr. John Benson
Key Sales Points:
* Covers: * Australia’s history of conservation, * History of National parks and * How the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area was formed.
Peter Hitchcock was writing this book at the time of his death in 2019. It is his story of a lifetime of connection with Australia’s tall eucalypt forests and rainforests, and their conservation.
It is a dual story of his life, and the science and conservation of the tall eucalypt forests, their use by Aboriginal people, their ‘discovery’ by early European explorers, their exploitation by European settlers and those who followed them, the battles and successes for their conservation, and the management which will be needed to conserve them in the future.
Peter made extraordinary national and global contributions to forest conservation, rainforest protection, World Heritage, and national parks. He was a visionary, with a green future for our planet firmly in his sights.
Peter Hitchcock left an indelible mark on nature conservation and on those who knew him.
His determination to win results for the environment in the face of adversity is legendary.
Humanity owes much to Peter Hitchcock.
He made the world a better place.
And now, there is one less great warrior for the planet.

Aerial views, night shots of the City of Light, rooftops and café terraces place Paris as the central character along with Emily of course. As each season unfolds, the viewer navigates their mutual influences and the hilarious cultural clichés and stereotypes spawn from their mutual encounter. Thanks to Paris, Emily’s life is about to bloom. She’ll take her Parisian sexual awakening and career development into her very own American hands!
In this book, you will find the best quotes from the first three series, which wit and charm will stylishly inspire you and make you smile. This is the perfect gift for any fans of the hit Netflix series!

The Ace and Aro Relationship Guide
Making It Work in Friendship, Love, and Sex
By Cody Daigle-Orians
Should I be upfront with someone I'm interested in that I'm ace or aro? How do I get people to respect my boundaries around intimacy? What if I don't want intimacy at all? It is selfish to pursue a relationship if I don't want romance? These questions are not only a source of deep anxiety and frustration for ace and aro people - but limit the heights that ace and aro folks believe they can reach for in their lives. These questions make us believe that we should settle for less, when in fact we all deserve more. Whether we're talking about friendships, romantic relationships, casual dates or casual intimate partners, this guide will help you not only live authentically in your ace and aro identity, but joyfully share it with others.
The Joy Document
Creating a Midlife of Surprise and Delight
By Jennifer McGaha
Once you begin looking for joy, you can find it pretty much anywhere. When Jennifer McGaha's grandmother was in her late eighties, Jennifer asked her what her favourite age so far had been. "Fifty-five," her grandmother answered, as though there were something magical about this stage of life, some deeper way of knowing from this vantage point. So, in her own fifty-fifth year, Jennifer began to take note. She jotted down her impressions of simple, everyday things that struck her as beautiful or humorous or intriguing and kept a list of all the accomplishments, large and small, that actually mattered to her. These observations became Jennifer's Joy Document, a radical act of reclaiming joy and an exercise in paying attention.

Lionel Messi Football Fan Book
By Iain Spragg
Celebrated as the greatest soccer player in the history of the game, Lionel Messi’s record-breaking career is a story of unprecedented goals and glory. The Inter Miami CF and Argentina superstar’s remarkable achievements have made him one of the world’s most famous athletes and a player who is always synonymous with entertainment, style and passion.
When Messi joined MLS in the summer of 2023, his transfer to Inter Miami made headlines worldwide and with his first full league season starting in February, renewed Messi mania is set to sweep America. The thousands who descended on the stadiums during the Herons’ global preseason tour to catch a glimpse of the club captain only underlined the Argentinian’s incredible popularity.
No one has been named FIFA World Player of the Year more than the eight times Messi has won the coveted award, while his seven Ballon d’Or triumphs are also a record.
The scorer of more than 800 goals for club and country, he captained Argentina to victory at the 2022 World Cup and boasts more than 40 major domestic and international winner’s medals in his extraordinary personal collection.

Jude Bellingham Football Fan Book
By Iain Spragg
A Champions League winner and La Liga champion with Real Madrid before his 21st birthday, Jude Bellingham is a player with the footballing world at his feet and a growing, global army of admirers.
His seemingly effortless style on the pitch belies his inner steel and few players have ever made such an impact on the beautiful game in such a ridiculously short space of time.
The young, outrageously gifted midfielder has come a long way since he cut his teeth as a 16-year-old in the second tier in England with Birmingham City.
His three years in the German top flight with Borussia Dortmund that followed only underlined his star status and since his arrival at the Bernabéu, Bellingham has proved he is already a fully-fledged member of the football elite.
Barely 17 when he was first capped by England, he is a talisman for the Three Lions despite his age and it is now simply a question of when rather than if he inherits the coveted captain’s armband and leads his country.

101 Reasons Why I Love the NBA
By Scott Reeves
Around 800 million people follow hundreds of games played every year by teams in the NBA, making it the fourth most popular sporting competition in the world. It’s a truly global league, with legions of fans in Brazil, China, Spain, Australia and South Africa. It’s not hard to see what attracts them to the sport. For decades, the NBA has enthralled American sports fans. Bill Russell and other early superstars sealed the NBA’s place as a national institution. Icons like Magic Johnson and Michael Jordan wrote their names in the record books, and modern-day all-stars like LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo have propelled the NBA into an international phenomenon. Now, the Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Lakers are among the most watched sports teams in the world, and the NBA leads the way in uniting a country that’s fragmented on so many other levels.

But the most watched pro sports league in the world has a long and illustrious history that predates the NFL’s newest dynasty. From Vince Lombardi through Jerry Rice to Tom Brady, the players and coaches of the NFL have captivated generations of American sports fans. Every week of the season sees iconic franchises like the Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants and Chicago Bears offer unrivalled entertainment to a global audience – and more fans tune in every week to enjoy the feast of touchdowns, trick plays and tailgating. Explore 101 reasons why the NFL is one of the richest and most popular sports leagues in the world – and why it’s still growing!
101 Reasons Why I Love The Darts
By Iain Spragg
The magic of the oche is legendary and with a global audience of millions of darts is a sporting juggernaut which always delivers entertainment and drama. Boasting more characters than an episode of Eastenders, the game exploded in the 1980s thanks to Eric Bristow and friends and since the golden days of the Crafty Cockney, darts has been blessed with larger-than-life heroes like Phil Taylor, Michael van Gerwen and lately teenage tyro Luke “The Nuke” Littler. The first ever World Darts Championship in 1978 was just the start of the sport’s incredible story and despite its proud but humble roots in pubs and clubs up and down the country, darts has now spread its wings from Sunderland, Solihull and Southend as far afield as Singapore, South Korea and Saudi Arabia. There are countless reasons why everyone on the planet loves the darts and here are 101 of the best – and funniest –of them.

Naming Jack the Ripper
The Definitive Reveal
By Russell Edwards
The definitive identity of the world's most notorious serial killer is finally revealed. In this latest edition of Naming Jack the Ripper, three brand-new chapters detail Ripperologist Russell Edwards' ongoing work since 2014 and how he has solved - for the first time ever - many of the long-unanswered mysteries regarding the how and why of the killings, the Goulston Street Graffito . . . and why the real killer was not charged in 1888. All the experts agreed: we would never know the true identity of the world's most famous serial killer. It has taken 136 years of theorizing and speculation, plus the determination of Russell Edwards, a twenty-first-century businessman fascinated by the nineteenth-century social history of London's East End, to finally solve the mystery of Jack the Ripper. In February 2014, Russell received stunning DNA results and revealed the true identity and name of Jack the Ripper.

Hurricane Flip Book
By Imperial War Museum
Often overshadowed by its more famous counterpart, the Spitfire, the Hawker Hurricane proved to be the unsung hero of the Second World War.
Over half of every enemy aeroplane destroyed in the Battle of Britain was by a Hurricane, not a Spitfire. While the Hurricane is known for being the reliable workhorse of the Battle of Britain, it also went on to serve in nearly every major theatre of the war, even as a bomber.
Using rare archival footage from IWM's unique collection, this flip book recreates the impressive manoeuvres of the legendary Hurricane in flight.
Watch Hurricane Mk I fighters of No. 73 Squadron take off on a sortie, showcasing the daring skills of their pilots. IWM has managed a Film Archive since it was first established in 1917.
The constantly growing collection extends to over 23,000 hours of moving images, representing a wide and diverse range of material from public and service information films, documentaries and unedited combat film, through to official newsreels and amateur films.

Biodynamic Farming Handbook
Activating soil fertility for growing healthy food
By John Bradshaw
This book provides a comprehensive overview of Biodynamic farming, its scientific basis, detailed instructions for practical application, together with a series of detailed case studies of a variety of Biodynamic farms in Australia and Europe. These farms use the Australia Demeter Biodynamic Method, which is applied widely in Europe, Asia, and in the USA.
It is called the Australian method because it was where Biodynamics developed most extensively under the leadership of Alex Podolinsky (1925-2019), extending to hundreds of thousands of acres by the mid-1980s.
Through Alex Podolinskys annual advisory trips throughout Europe from the 1990s until his death in 2019, hundreds of farmers now use the Australian Demeter Biodynamic Method.
Key themes are Biodynamics is a proven, successful system of sustainable, regenerative agriculture that allows farmers to develop the biological activity and fertility of their soils with minimal fertilizer inputs, producing food of exceptional quality, the method is soundly based on scientific research, attention to detail in all aspects of the method is needed to ensure success.
This includes the critical importance of the highest quality Biodynamic soil biology and light metabolism enhancing preparations, without which Biodynamics will not work effectively. Farmers worldwide get excellent results.

Earthwards
Transformative Ecological Education
By Katharine Burke
Katharine Burke was asked by a student, “Miss, do you think we are going extinct?” She recognized a growing malaise in response to the climate crisis and asked herself, “How do we teachers help these capable, yet vulnerable young people develop the ecological literacy and personal resilience they need?” She provoked her students to think and act ecologically. She then invited other teachers to participate in action research for developing nature connectedness with their students. Earthwards shares these transformative stories, concepts and methods of connecting with nature for life. Earthwards shifts the lens from using nature as a throwaway object to understanding nature as a living organism. This crucial paradigm shift comes through peak experiences of nature. The educator’s job is both to create the conditions for such transformative ecological experiences and then to bring out the observations, feelings, thoughts and questions of students. Educators can use innovative action research to engage with students in a variety of settings - including classrooms, clubs, volunteer groups, outdoors, gardens, forest experiences, camping and hiking. Sharing these learning stories helps build the culture of a real eco-school. Each chapter includes the story of practical learning projects from primary through secondary school; ecological principles, a reflection section for educators, a ‘curriculum connections’ section to bring those principles into practice, and suggestions for multiple age groups. Helpful resources, a comprehensive bibliography, index and sharing website offer further help to educators.

The Goals that Changed Australia
Stories from the biggest stage on Earth
By David Weiner
Football is the most played sport in Australia and is incredibly popular. But when most kids think of football, they think of Messi, Ronaldo, Bellingham, Haaland and Mbappe. With the surging popularity of the Matildas, there’s an amazing story to be told to the next generation of football fans, a roller coaster ride that has taken place right here in our own backyard. This is a story lived by people just like us – Aussie boys and girls, short and tall, from all corners of the country – who took their dreams and made them real. With such interest in football, it is the perfect moment to pay respect to our own local story, and to imbue Australian fans with respect and admiration for our own heroes, not just the global mythical figures. This book aims to tell the story of our current stars, and the legends who went before them, to create a passionate understanding and love for the green and gold in our next generation of football fans. With the clear link between Cortnee Vine and John Aloisi’s penalties providing the framework, this book takes young fans on a journey through the highs and lows, life lessons and great characters that come with following Australian football, through a structure of alternating World Cups, from 2006 through to 2023. Symbolically, it tells our story of football on the world stage; not a story of men’s football or women’s football, but football, the sport that provides the greatest window to the world through sport, and the best depiction of our country to the world.
