"A memoir about Scott's fight against cancer"--
The purpose of this book is to explore some of those great mysteries of the earth that have captured the popular imagination, and especially those having their roots in our specialties of archaeology and geology. The average reader probably is unfamiliar with the earth sciences or the archaeological history of man. Nor does the average reader have the time and literary resources to verify all he or she reads. Our aim is to lend a helping hand by examining the evidence that surrounds such mysteries as the legend of Atlantis and the ruins of Stonehenge, and, as logically as we can, sift truth from falsehood and exagger ation. Early man found himself in a world of unimaginable mysteries: meteor...
No writer has ever been as famous as Sir Walter Scott once was; and no writer has ever enjoyed such huge acclaim followed by such absolute neglect and outright hostility. But Scotland would not be Scotland except for Scott. All the icons of Scottishness have their roots in Scott's novels, poems, public events and histories. It's a legacy both inspiring and constraining, and just one of the ironies that fuse Scott and Scotland into Scott-land. In this book Stuart Kelly reveals Scott the paradox: the celebrity unknown, the nationalist unionist, the aristocrat loved by communists, the forward-looking reactionary. Part literary study, part biography, part travelogue, part surreptitious autobiography, Scott-land unveils a complex, contradictory man and the complex contradictory country he created. Insightful, accessible, witty and melancholy, this is a 'voyage around my fatherland' like no other.
There’s a barrel of monkeys and giraffes in a tower. A loud band of gorillas, and frogs in the shower. Then there’s these two, who are called Bill and Bruce . . . and one of them is definitely a very silly goose! A hilarious animal rhyming story by best-selling children's book creator, Scott Stuart.
Nobody has ever smiled your smile, or ran the way that you run. The chances of you being born as you are were 400 trillion to one. Scott Stuart encourages young readers to embrace their uniqueness and see the joy that their individuality brings to the world. Encompassing children from different backgrounds and told in irresistible rhyme, The Very First You is a must-have picture book for all young readers.
