To Lose the Madness
In this career-defining work, Browning explores the breaking point every mind has after finding her own limit during a gauntlet of traumatic events. Pulled out of this blast-crater moment in her life by a friend, she is brought away from the insanity and deep into the snowy Sangre de Cristo Mountains where, standing in front of a herd of wild buffalo, she comes face to face with the terms we all must come to surrounding the loss we face in this life. Offering no answers and seeking no pity, Browning lays herself bare in this radically authentic offering. She carries restricted subjects such as miscarriage, mental illness, and suicide out of the silence by offering her own private journey as an example of the power of transcendence.

Inside the French Riviera
Behind the glamour of the French Riviera lies a world rarely described.In Inside the French Riviera, Dutch author Arnold Verhoeven offers a series of sharp, personal observations drawn from years of living and working in Cannes. Moving beyond postcard images and celebrity clich矇s, he explores the everyday realities behind one of the world's most mythologised coastlines.Through encounters with guests, officials, entrepreneurs and outsiders, Verhoeven reveals a Riviera shaped as much by power, money and silence as by sunlight and luxury. The book combines memoir, reportage and cultural reflection, tracing how global politics, local customs and human ambition quietly intersect along the C繫te d'Azur.Written with irony, restraint and an outsider's eye, Inside the French Riviera is not a guidebook, but a literary portrait of a place where appearances matter - and where what remains unseen often tells the real story.

Italy's Shrines and Wonders
Bestselling Italy expert, author, and travel consultant, Teresa Tomeo, walks with you in the footsteps of St. Francis of Assisi, one of the most beloved saints in history. You'll travel with Tomeo through the Italian countryside while she uncovers St. Francis' life as a mystic and miracle worker, and as the first recorded stigmatist. Learn about the inspiration and deep convictions behind St. Francis' founding the Franciscan Order and how he worked tirelessly to rebuild the Catholic Church through his service to the poor. Discover his deep spirituality and understanding of suffering bearing Christ's wounds, and his love and adoration of Christ in the Holy Eucharist which helped sustain him through it all. Journey through sacred spaces and fascinating places in Umbria with Tomeo to Francis' beloved Assisi, his hometown and burial place. Then, travel with her to Rivotorto and Spoleto, key places in Francis' conversion, where he embraced his call to humility, mercy, and his love for the poor take root. Travel to Laverna in the Tuscany Region, where the mountain that St. Francis received the Stigmata is located, then venture to Greccio in the Lazio Region, the birthplace of the first Nativity scene where you learn about Francis' deep love for the Incarnation. As a part-time resident of Italy who lives only a 40-minute drive from Assisi, Tomeo provides practical and local insider tips on how to fully embrace these faith and culture gems in the life of St. Francis. She walks you through the must-sees, the must-dos, and how to best navigate both--whether visiting them spiritually, or traveling there in person, all while helping you to soak in the beauty of Italy's rich culture and be renewed in your faith.Pope Leo XIV declared 2026 the Jubilee Year of St. Francis of Assisi to mark the 800th anniversary of his death so there is no better time to delve deep into the life and footsteps of this beloved saint. Get to really know St. Francis. "You can't really know someone until you have walked a mile in their shoes."

Suggested itineraries are mapped out to help travelers plan their trips.

On Foreign Soil
On Foreign Soil collects seven essays about personal experience far from (or close to) home that changed and widened each author's perspective on the world and their perception of "foreign" vs. "home." This anthology is the shared work of several members of the Laura (Riding) Jackson Foundation's Tuesday Writers group. What brings writers together? Perhaps a shared desire to make the words on the page match the truths in their minds. At first, the group members were strangers. Now, through reading aloud and offering thoughtful feedback, they've built trust and a rhythm that helps each of them grow. In this book, they share their writing about living on foreign soil and ask: What defines foreign soil?

Goodly Barrow
GOODLY BARROW is a long-unavailable classic that charts the history and character of Ireland's second-longest river, from the Slieve Bloom Mountains to the sea in Waterford. T.F. O'Sullivan's riverine narrative embraces legend and song, literature and anecdote, viewing Irish history through the prism of the waterway: from the early tribal kingdoms of the Celts, to the Vikings and Normans who made passage up the estuary, leaving a legacy of castles, abbeys, monasteries and towns; from the Tudor and Cromwellian settlements on the fertile plains of Carlow and Kildare, to Quaker bridge-builders and Huguenot refugees.

Iceland

It is Europe's second largest island but its most sparsely populated country. Sitting astride the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, linking the North Atlantic plate with the Eurasian plate, it is closer to Greenland than Europe. It lies just south of the Arctic Circle, but, warmed by Gulf Stream waters, has a temperate climate. It has fiery volcanoes and freezing glaciers, striking black sand beaches and hot geysers - the word geyser itself comes from Icelandic. And a geologically young landmass, Iceland is still taking shape: a volcanic eruption in 1963 caused the formation of the new island of Surtsey. Iceland is a fascinating exploration of this most beautiful island. From volcanoes and lava flows to geysers and geothermal pools, from bird life to whale-watching, from national parks, verdant valleys to inland tundra, and from how waterfalls are used for hydro-electric power to Reykjavik's city life, the book is packed with 200 spectacular colour photographs. Presented with captions explaining the story behind each entry, Iceland is a stunning collection of images celebrating the world's most curious island.
