 Blue Skies & Black Olives A survivor's tale of housebuilding and peacock chasing in Greece【電子書籍】[ John Humphrys ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞'A very funny tome' ＜em＞DAILY TELEGRAPH＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞'Hilarious' ＜em＞DAILY MAIL＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞'A profoundly instructive course in the idiosyncrasies of Greek law, custom and culture ... entertainingly chronicled' ＜em＞SAGA＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞* * * * * *＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞From Radio 4 presenter, bestselling author and national treasure John Humphrys, a funny and engaging memoir of building a home in Greece written together with his son Christopher.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞It was a moment of mad impulse when John Humphrys decided to buy a semi-derelict cottage and a building site on a plot of land overlooking the Aegean. A few minutes gazing out over the most glorious bay he had ever seen was all it took to persuade him. After all, his son Christopher was already raising his family there so he would help build the beautiful villa that would soon rise there. What could possibly go wrong?＜/p＞ ＜p＞Everything.＜/p＞ ＜p＞John was to spend the next three years regretting his moment of madness.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Some of it had its comic side. He learned to cope with a drunken peacock falling out of his favourite tree and even a colony of rats invading his bedroom. Some of the humans proved trickier: the old man demanding payment for olive trees in the middle of John's own land; the neighbour who dragged his lovely old fishing boat onto the beach and set fire to it after a row with his wife. And, of course, the builders. Was the plumber who electrocuted him in the shower vengeful or merely incompetent?＜/p＞ ＜p＞John learned a lot about Greece in a short time. He grew to love it and loathe it in almost equal measures, but was never for a moment bored by it. And Christopher learned a bit more about John. Their shared experience revived keen memories for him of growing up with a father for whom patience was never the strongest virtue...＜/p＞ ＜p＞Here father and son capture the idyll and the odyssey as paradise is found, lost and regained.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 1,856円 |
 Boozehound On the Trail of the Rare, the Obscure, and the Overrated in Spirits [A Travel and Cocktail Recipe Book]【電子書籍】[ Jason Wilson ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞While some may wonder, “Does the world really ＜em＞need＜/em＞ another flavored vodka?” no one answers this question quite so memorably as spirits writer and raconteur Jason Wilson does in ＜em＞Boozehound＜/em＞. (By the way, the short answer is no.) A unique blend of travelogue, spirits history, and recipe collection, ＜em＞Boozehound＜/em＞ explores the origins of what we drink and the often surprising reasons behind our choices.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In lieu of odorless, colorless, tasteless spirits, Wilson champions Old World liquors with hard-to-define flavorsーa bitter and complex Italian ＜em＞amari＜/em＞, or the ancient, aromatic herbs of Chartreuse, as well as distinctive New World offerings like lively Peruvian pisco. With an eye for adventure, Wilson seeks out visceral experiences at the source of productionーvisiting fields of spiky agave in Jalisco, entering the heavily and reverently-guarded J?germeister herb room in Wolfenb?ttel, and journeying to the French Alps to determine if mustachioed men in berets really handpick blossoms to make elderflower liqueur.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In addition, ＜em＞Boozehound＜/em＞ offers more than fifty drink recipes, from three riffs on the Manhattan to cocktail-geek favorites like the Aviation and the Last Word. These recipes are presented alongside a host of opinionated essays that cherish the rare, uncover the obscure, dethrone the overrated, and unravel the mysteries of taste, trends, and terroir. Through his far-flung, intrepid traveling and tasting, Wilson shows us that perhaps nothing else as entwined with the history of human culture is quite as much fun as booze.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,334円 |
 My Discovery of England A Humorous Literary Journey Through English Society【電子書籍】[ Stephen Leacock ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In "My Discovery of England," Stephen Leacock presents an insightful and humorous examination of English life through the eyes of a Canadian expatriate. Written with Leacock's signature wit and charm, the book traverses a variety of themes including culture, society, and the idiosyncrasies of English customs. Set against the backdrop of the early 20th century, Leacock'??s narrative interweaves personal anecdotes with sharp social commentary, making for a compelling reflection on both English and Canadian identities during a period marked by cultural fascination and transatlantic exchange. Stephen Leacock, renowned as a master of ribald humor and social satire, harnessed his diverse experiences as a scholar and traveler for this work. Born in England and later immigrating to Canada, Leacock's unique perspective provided him with the ability to critique and celebrate both societies. His prior success as a lecturer and writer on themes of humor and human nature undoubtedly informed his approach to narrating his discoveries in England, as he combined both lightheartedness and depth. "My Discovery of England" is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersections of culture, humor, and social critique. Readers will enjoy Leacock's brilliant prose and keen observations, making this work not only an entertaining romp through English life but also a thought-provoking exploration for anyone seeking understanding of the quirks that define a culture.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 310円 |

 Beyer, Peacock & Company of Manchester【電子書籍】[ Colin Alexander ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The world-famous Beyer, Peacock works of Gorton, Manchester, is remembered principally for its remarkable Beyer-Garratt articulated locomotives, which ran in forty-eight countries. The firm would also turn out steam lorries and steam tram engines. Among the company’s iconic domestic designs were the 4-4-0T condensing engines for the pre-electrified Metropolitan Railway in London, the narrow-gauge 2-4-0 tank engine that is synonymous with the Isle of Man and the stylish and powerful diesel-hydraulic Hymeks for British Railways’ Western Region. Beyer, Peacock exported many of its 8,000 steam, diesel and electric locomotives all over the world and this book illustrates a variety of these throughout the company’s 112-year existence, beginning in 1854.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,156円 |
