Alone in Wonderland
A woman leaves behind the expectations of conventional life to walk solo into the wild -- and discovers far more than just the miles ahead. When Christine Reed first stumbled across a long-distance hiking blog at her office desk, she never imagined it would change her life. With little outdoor experience and no real plan, she decided to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail. That single decision sparked a journey of thousands of miles and countless transformations. Years later, newly single and questioning everything she thought she knew about herself and her relationships, Christine sets out to hike the 93-mile Wonderland Trail around Mt. Rainier. Alone. Battling rough terrain, unpredictable weather, and the emotional weight of her past, she reclaims her identity as a woman capable of doing hard things and learns that sometimes, solitude is the only place we truly hear our own voice. Alone in Wonderland is more than a backpacking memoir. It's a raw, relatable story of independence, vulnerability, and the healing power of wild places. With honesty and humour, Christine explores what it means to define yourself on your own terms and reminds us that sometimes, the person you've been looking for has been with you all along. Perfect for fans of Cheryl Strayed's Wild, Carrot Quinn's Thru-Hiking Will Break Your Heart, and anyone who's ever wanted to pack a bag, walk into the woods, and see what happens.

Galapagos Islands
Nestling far from the South American coast among the azure waters of the Pacific Ocean are the Galapagos Islands, famous as the source of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution. Galapagos Islands is a vivid photographic exploration of these stunning isles and the wildlife that inhabits them.Nestling more than 1000km (600 miles) from the South American coast among the azure waters of the Pacific Ocean, the Galapagos are famous as the source of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, following his historic visit to the archipelago aboard HMS Beagle in 1835. Today, these 19 islands and the surrounding marine reserve have been called a unique 'living museum and showcase of evolution'. Located at the confluence of three ocean currents, the Gal獺pagos are a melting pot of diverse marine species. Local volcanic activity is testament to the process that originally formed these islands. Combined with the extreme isolation of the archipelago, this has led to the development of some rare and unusual animals, such as the land iguana, blue-footed booby and the many types of finch, which are featured - along with the penguins, sea lions and Galapagos hawks - in vivid detail in this book. Arranged in chapters that include geology, sea life, fauna and flora, Galapagos Islands is an evocative exploration of this remarkable ecosystem and the life that has developed there - from the volcanic peaks of Cerro Azul and Wolf Volcano to the famous giant tortoise, flightless cormorant and waved albatross.

This fate she shares with many millions who have sustained similar changes. - Dr. Harold Paddock, Professor of Linguistics, emeritus, Memorial University of Newfoundland
