There is no end to how people seek the heights. Within such a continuum of mountain enthusiasts, the peakbagger is peculiarly focused on the summit—not just in classic alpine style but also in deserts, jungles, and everywhere a big mountain awaits, ticking off his lists. County high-pointing represents this obsession, providing the practitioner with all manner of rewards, perceived and tangible. His hobby is not for the timid, often entails difficulties beyond the norm, and always consumes inordinately large chunks of time. Part 1 describes the genre in five chapters. Part 2 reviews the author’s multisummer project of reaching the highest ground for each of the 414 counties in America’s west. It’s a memorable accomplishment replete with many unexpected challenges. The required perseverance and will to achieve beyond the norm is his parting message to the reader. Part 3 reviews Alaska and Hawaii county high-pointing, followed by four appendices and a 330-entry glossary of terms. With 400 pages and 236 illustrations, A Tale of Twelve Summers is both comprehensive and visually attractive.

"From cricket tragic Adam Zwar, co-creator of Wilfred, Lowdown and Squinters, comes a hilarious, thought-provoking collection of big memories and the big matches that accompanied them. Every significant moment in actor and writer Adam Zwar's life is tied to cricket. He knows when his voice broke - it happened quickly and harshly during the 1985 Ashes tour of England. He got his first girlfriend during the First Test against England in 1990, then realised the relationship was over during the Fifth Test at the WACA. Obsessed with cricket since boyhood, the game has always been in the background - or foreground - of Adam's life. One of Australia's funniest writers, he tells of twelve formative summers, the milestones and the unforgettable moments inextricably linked with the game he loves. During one disastrous Ashes series Adam was making a documentary on Bodyline and facing Brett Lee bowling over 145km/h at his helmetless head, and when Australia lost to Sri Lanka in the 1996 World Cup final he was working as a driver for a Melbourne escort agency. And the time Australia was poised for an easy win against India in Kolkata in 2001, Adam was stuck in a Stuttgart hotel drinking milkshakes with AC/DC. Twelve Summers will entertain you, make you laugh out loud and move you - and not just because India beat Australia in Kolkata and Adam had to try really hard to not let the Young brothers see him cry"--Publisher's description.

Why would a successful American physician choose to live in a twelve-foot-by-twelve-foot cabin without running water or electricity? To find out, writer and activist William Powers visited Dr. Jackie Benton in rural North Carolina. No Name Creek gurgled through Benton’s permaculture farm, and she stroked honeybees’ wings as she shared her wildcrafter philosophy of living on a planet in crisis. Powers, just back from a decade of international aid work, then accepted Benton’s offer to stay at the cabin for a season while she traveled. There, he befriended her eclectic neighbors — organic farmers, biofuel brewers, eco-developers — and discovered a sustainable but imperiled way of life. In these pages, Powers not only explores this small patch of community but draws on his international experiences with other pockets of resistance. This engrossing tale of Powers’s struggle for a meaningful life with a smaller footprint proposes a paradigm shift to an elusive “Soft World” with clues to personal happiness and global healing.
