Campen ist toll, es ist für viele zu einer bevorzugten Freizeit- und sogar Lebensform geworden. Am schönsten ist es, mit dem Wohnmobil zu reisen. Aber wenn man dieses Buch gelesen ist, weiß man: am allerschönsten ist es zusammen mit zwei Französischen Bulldoggen namens Odin und Frieda. Die beiden berichten hier von Reisen durch Schleswig-Holstein und nach Schweden, wobei der herrlich skurrile Blick, den die beiden Vierbeiner auf die Menschen haben, belustigt und ihre Fähigkeit, ihre Umwelt mit allen Sinnen zu erkunden, das Campingerlebnis noch intensiver macht.

In the wake of five years which had seen a heart-attack, an operation to remove one third of his lungs, and increasing pain and difficulty walking from arthritis, Callum James resolved to walk the South Downs Way, one hundred miles from Winchester to the coast at Eastbourne. Walking five miles one day each weekend, James limped down the steep hill into Eastbourne four months later. The South Downs is partly a grimoire of the walk, partly a linear topography, partly a treatise on necromancy. Subverting the expectation that books on landscape are divorced from folklore, spirits, and the magic of a place, Callum James writes as one who does this magic, speaks to these spirits, and follows this lore. As a result, this is a book which is neither fiction nor non-fiction, because those categories don't work when you leave materialism behind. It is story.

Les singularités judiciaires sont nombreuses et variées au moyen âge, et souvent les magistrats interviennent dans des circonstances si bizarres, que nous avons peine à comprendre, nos jours, comment ces graves organes de la justice ont pu raisonnablement figurer dans de telles affaires. Toutefois notre but n¿est pas de critiquer ici des sages plus ou moins absurdes, mais d¿en constater simplement l¿existence. Nous bornons notre rôle { raconter les faits, sauf au lecteur à en tirer lui-même les conséquences. Plusieurs siècles nous séparent de l¿époque dont nous cherchons { étudier les m¿urs et les idées, qui forment avec les nôtres de si étranges disparates ; aussi n¿est-ce qüaprès de scrupuleuses recherches faites dans les ouvrages des jurisconsultes et des historiens les plus respectables, que nous avons osé présenter cette rapide esquisse.

Il était près de huit heures lorsque Michel Berthier Lautrec rentra. Sa femme commençait à s¿inquiéter.« Pourquoi ne vous êtes-vous pas mis à table sans moi ? dit Michel avec humeur. ¿ Nous avons préféré t¿attendre, dit Mme Berthier Lautrec de sa voix douce. D¿ailleurs, les enfants n¿avaient pas faim, ni moi non plus. ¿ N¿importe ! Une fois pour toutes, je t¿ai dit que je ne voulais pas qüon m¿attendît.¿ Bien, mon ami. On ne t¿attendra plus. Mon petit Henri, veux-tu sonner pour qüon serve ? » Ce n¿était pas la première fois que pareille scène de ménage se passait chez les Berthier-Lautrec. Depuis quelque temps, le caractère de Michel, plutôt gai, s¿était aigri. Presque chaque soir il rapportait à la maison un front assombri, dînait sans prononcer une parole, puis, le café pris, il se levait de table et allait s¿enfermer dans son cabinet, où il restait à veiller jusqüà une heure avancée de la nuit.

Every individual must look within themselves to decide what will make their life truly spectacular. For the author it is all about travel: the excitement of discovery and learning along the way and capturing those moments in an equally spectacular image.This book tells the story of the author's travels throughout his life with an emphasis on his love of photography and the national parks. It traces his journey from childhood, when he first experienced the time-honored road trip with his parents, through his military service, overseas and in the U.S., along with his many years in corporate America, each presenting him with new and unique travel opportunities. The wake-up call of a cancer diagnosis set him on the path to his most exciting adventures yet. He left his job, downsized his life, and moved into an RV to make travel his full-time focus rather than a thing he did only on vacation. He set a goal to visit and photograph all fifty-nine (at the time) national parks. Well on his way toward this goal, he experienced a major setback after an early-morning fire destroyed his RV and all his possessions, forcing him to rebuild his life to stay on the path to finishing his goal.
