Lonely Planet's Natural World (HB) by Lonely Planet

$45.00 AUD

Category: Lonely Planet | Series: Lonely Planet Ser.

There's something purely magical about being in nature; it transforms us, it renews us. Yet, in a world where high rises, dense population and technology have become virtually inescapable, immersing oneself in nature is seemingly out-of-reach. Lonely Planet's Natural World invites you to reconnect with nature in this sweeping look at the cultural, ecological and historical significance of our world's remaining natural places.The natural world is not as far away as you may believe. In each chapter we explore one specific environment and show you places around the world where you can immerse yourself under a canopy of leaves, quiet your mind amongst sparkling snow, and refresh your senses to a soundtrack of crashing waves. We've also included excerpts from nature writers such as John Muir to help illuminate your sense of place throughout history, and easy-to-follow activities, like "how-to-forest-bathe," to provide inspiration for when you arrive.Nature is a precious resource; not for what we can take from it, but for what we can learn from it. The natural places in this book are in danger from a plethora of human-created threats. While this book is a celebration of these spaces, it is also meant to impart their value and importance, and calls on readers to protect such places. Discover how to absorb the benefits of nature while preserving these environments for future generations.   ...Show more

A Taste of Paris: A History of the Parisian Love Affair with Food by David Downie

$39.99 AUD

Category: Travel Stories

In his trademark witty and informative style, David Downie embarks on a quest to discover "What is it about the history of Paris that has made it a food lover's paradise?" Long before Marie Antoinette said, "Let them eat cake!" (actually, it was brioche), the Romans of Paris devoured foie gras, and live oysters rushed in from the Atlantic; one Medieval cookbook describes a thirty-two part meal featuring hare stew, eel soup, and honeyed wine; during the last great banquet at Versailles a year before the Revolution the gourmand Louis XVI savored thirty-two main dishes and sixteen desserts; yet, in 1812, Grimod de la Reyniere, the father of French gastronomy, regaled guests with fifty-two courses, fifteen wines, three types of coffee, and seventeen liqueurs.Following the contours of history and the geography of the city, Downie sweeps readers on an insider's gourmet walking tour of Paris and its environs in A Taste of Paris, revealing the locations of Roman butcher shops, classic Belle Epoque bistros serving diners today and Marie Antoinette's exquisite vegetable garden that still supplies produce, no longer to the unfortunate queen, but to the legendary Alain Ducasse and his stylish restaurant inside the palace of Versailles. Along the way, readers learn why the rich culinary heritage of France still makes Paris the ultimate arbiter in the world of food. ...Show more
