KEMP CHRISTOPHER
Floating Gold: A Natural and Unnatural History Of Ambergris
University of Chicago Press Chicago and London:. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Preternaturally hardened whale dung" is not the first image that comes to mind when we think of perfume otherwise a symbol of glamour and allure. But the key ingredient that makes the sophisticated scent linger on the skin is precisely this bizarre digestive by-product�ambergris. Despite being one of the world's most expensive substances its value is nearly that of gold and has at times in history been triple it ambergris is also one of the world's least known. But with this unusual and highly alluring book Christopher Kemp promises to change that by uncovering the unique history of ambergris. A rare secretion produced only by sperm whales which have a fondness for squid but an inability to digest their beaks ambergris is expelled at sea and floats on ocean currents for years slowly transforming before it sometimes washes ashore looking like a nondescript waxy pebble. It can appear almost anywhere but is found so rarely it might as well appear nowhere. Kemp's journey begins with an encounter on a New Zealand beach with a giant lump of faux ambergris�determined after much excitement to nothing more exotic than lard�that inspires a comprehensive quest to seek out ambergris and its story. He takes us from the wild rocky New Zealand coastline to Stewart Island a remote windswept island in the southern seas to Boston and Cape Cod and back again. Along the way he tracks down the secretive collectors and traders who populate the clandestine modern-day ambergris trade. Floating Gold is an entertaining and lively history that covers not only these precious gray lumps and those who covet them but presents a highly informative account of the natural history of whales squid ocean ecology and even a history of the perfume industry. Kemp's obsessive curiosity is infectious and eager readers will feel as though they have stumbled upon a precious bounty of this intriguing substance.

Kenneth Grahame
The Wind in the Willows
ABOUT THE BOOK:- The Wind in the Willows is a children's novel by British novelist Kenneth Grahame. The novel has the following significant aspects: Alternately slow-moving and fast-paced, it focuses on four anthropomorphized animals {Mole, Rat (a European water vole), Toad, and Badger} in a pastoral version of Edwardian England. The novel is notable for its mixture of mysticism, adventure, morality, and camaraderie, and celebrated for its evocation of the nature of the Thames Valley. It is a book of linked animal tales that began as a series of bedtime stories for Kenneth’s son. It is the beautifully written work that became a classic of English children’s literature. The book has evocative descriptions of the countryside interspersed with exciting adventures. In 2003, The Wind in the Willows was listed at #16 in the BBC's survey The Big Read. More than a century after its original publication, it was adapted again for the stage, as a 2016 musical by Julian Fellowes. ABOUT THE AUTHOR:- Kenneth Grahame was a British author of The Wind in the Willows (1908), one of the classics of children’s literature. He was born in Edinburgh, Midlothian County, Scotland, on 8 March 1859. He was the third child born to Bessie nee Inglis and Cunningham Grahame, lawyer. He had three siblings: Helen, Willie, and Roland. Orphaned at an early age, Grahame went to live with his grandmother in England and attended St. Edward’s School, Oxford. Money was lacking for him to go to the university. Hence, his family guided him into a career at the Bank of England, with which he stayed until ill health compelled him to retire in 1908. Meanwhile, he contributed articles to such journals as the St. James Gazette and the Yellow Book and published collections of sketches, stories, and essays—Pagan Papers (1893), The Golden Age (1895), and Dream Days (1898)—all of which reveal his sensitive understanding of childhood.

The Wind in the Willows [Hardcover]
ABOUT THE BOOK:- The Wind in the Willows is a children's novel by British novelist Kenneth Grahame. The novel has the following significant aspects: Alternately slow-moving and fast-paced, it focuses on four anthropomorphized animals {Mole, Rat (a European water vole), Toad, and Badger} in a pastoral version of Edwardian England. The novel is notable for its mixture of mysticism, adventure, morality, and camaraderie, and celebrated for its evocation of the nature of the Thames Valley. It is a book of linked animal tales that began as a series of bedtime stories for Kenneth’s son. It is the beautifully written work that became a classic of English children’s literature. The book has evocative descriptions of the countryside interspersed with exciting adventures. In 2003, The Wind in the Willows was listed at #16 in the BBC's survey The Big Read. More than a century after its original publication, it was adapted again for the stage, as a 2016 musical by Julian Fellowes. ABOUT THE AUTHOR:- Kenneth Grahame was a British author of The Wind in the Willows (1908), one of the classics of children’s literature. He was born in Edinburgh, Midlothian County, Scotland, on 8 March 1859. He was the third child born to Bessie nee Inglis and Cunningham Grahame, lawyer. He had three siblings: Helen, Willie, and Roland. Orphaned at an early age, Grahame went to live with his grandmother in England and attended St. Edward’s School, Oxford. Money was lacking for him to go to the university. Hence, his family guided him into a career at the Bank of England, with which he stayed until ill health compelled him to retire in 1908. Meanwhile, he contributed articles to such journals as the St. James Gazette and the Yellow Book and published collections of sketches, stories, and essays—Pagan Papers (1893), The Golden Age (1895), and Dream Days (1898)—all of which reveal his sensitive understanding of childhood.
