“I galloped through this book–couldn’t stop once I’d started. The writing’s so spare and yet the message so complex. It’s spiky, sparky, pithy, and deep.”–Kate Long, author of The Bad Mother’s HandbookShe didn’t mean to tell the story, or have it end that way. She just got a little . . . carried away. It has been several years since she confided in her teacher, and Molly Drayton is still feeling the aftershocks. But when a chance meeting with a stranger leads to an offer of a room in exchange for telling stories, Molly jumps at the chance. Slowly, she builds an eccentric ne

The National Trust has throughout its existence shared with others a concern for the preservation of the varied historical landscapes of England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and an appreciation of their meaning and significance. The conference at which most of these papers were presented examined a number of broad themes with related case studies illustrating the wide range of archaeological activity for which the Trust is responsible. Topics included gardens and designed landscapes; historic buildings; industrial archaeology; and historic ecology. The speakers also assessed past achievements

The hydrological cycle of the Arctic Ocean has intimate and complex linkages to global climate: changes in one affect the other, usually with a feedback. The combined effects of large river runoff, advection of meteoric water, low evaporation rates and distillation by freezing contribute to the formation of a strong halocline in the upper Arctic ocean, which limits thermal communication between the sea ice and the warmer waters of Atlantic origin below. Sea ice and freshened surface waters are transported from the marginal seas by winds and currents, ultimately exiting the Arctic Ocean
