The richness of the Irish language is closely tied to the natural landscape and offers a more magical way of seeing the world. Most people associate Britain and Ireland with the English language, a vast, sprawling linguistic tree with roots in Latin, French, and German. But the inhabitants of these islands originally spoke another tongue. Look closely enough and English contains traces of the Celtic soil from which it sprung, found in words like bog, loch, cairn, and crag. Today, this heritage can be found nowhere more powerfully than in modern-day Gaelic.

I've never been anything but the underdog. No matter how hard I worked, I was always good enough to be someone's backup but nothing more. I thought being drafted by Cleveland's brand-new expansion team would be a fresh start. But when I find myself taking the snaps, it becomes painfully clear that I need some extra help—in the form of secret meetups with the owner's daughter. Livvy Grant is everything a guy like me could want—smart, beautiful, and knows the game of football better than anyone. But what happens when our midnight coaching sessions move from the field to the bedroom?

When we think of animals that provide the greatest insights into animal cognition and behavior, primates and honeybees come to mind, or perhaps whales or octopus. What about the raccoons that plunder our rubbish at night, or the coyotes that threaten pets and livestock, or the gulls that divebomb for snacks at the beach? Outsider Animals challenges everything you thought you knew about the overlooked animals that live in proximity to humans, sharing the stories that each has to tell about adaptation and cohabitation on our increasingly crowded planet.

The World Cup is the biggest sporting spectacle on Earth—a chance every four years for the greatest players to win international glory, and a month-long media event that's watched by an audience of billions. But the tournament has changed beyond recognition since the inaugural event in Montevideo, Uruguay, in July 1930. What was once a semi-professional meeting beset by haphazard play has evolved to become a game of multinational buyouts, dubious ethics, and questionable aims—and the new era of soccer has much to tell us about the globalized world.

More than a hundred salt lakes dot Earth's surface, most of them hidden away in remote desert valleys. But today nearly all of them are at risk of drying up. Their death is a harbinger of rising sea levels, life-threatening dust storms, and environmental collapse. Writer and geographer Caroline Tracey didn't know this when she began crossing paths with salt lakes during her early twenties. From the Great Salt Lake to the Aral Sea, across the American West and around the world, the unusual beauty of these shimmering, uncanny bodies of water captured her imagination.

When the cell towers go dark, will your family hear your voice or just static? We live in a fragile illusion of connectivity.

For nearly fifty years, a high school coach stood on practice fields, in locker rooms, on buses, and along fence lines where the real lessons were learned. This book is a collection of true stories from those years. They aren't about schemes or systems. They're about people—players, parents, principals, cheerleaders, bands, and the moments that shaped young lives long after the final whistle.

Funny, fascinating, and scientifically grounded, this charming book reveals unknown details about 50 well-known animals. Effortlessly enjoyable, Grizzled reintroduces nature lovers to species they thought they knew all about.

Gregory has spent years perfecting the art of restraint. Calm. Controlled. Untouchable. But Amber crashes through his careful diplomacy like a horse through a weak fence, exposing every crack in the polished mask ...
