The only true constant in life is change.

I've been meaning to read "Bury my heart at wounded knee" for many years now and have finally been inspired to buy a copy(thanks to Kunu). It's a book i think everybody should read. I'm only up to chapter 5 just now, but from getting this far I can say it's an easy book to read and quite an eye opener. Read it!

The other book i got is something we should all have, whether this actual one or another bird book. I got this one because it fits perfectly in my pocket
and is a perfect accompaniment to my pocket star book DK make some great books and this pocket nature series is ideal. I think i'll get more of the series, especially pocket trees, pocket wild flowers, pocket fungi and pocket seashore.

Whilst I'm on the subject of books, here's a few of my favourites from the past few years."The age of steam" is exactly what it's about and is one of my favourite times in history, So much went on during the industrial revolution and we tend to forget about it all too easily. There's quite a lot in this book as it spans quite an era, the same goes for the wreckers.
"the Wreckers" is a must for anyone into maritime matters and anyone interested in less known aspects of British history. Bella goes around the coast of Britain researching and finding out all about the life and times of... you guessed it, the wreckers. It's crazy to think that as people were escaping from sinking ships, the wreckers were just boarding and going to work salvaging anything of value as the ships went down!
The last book here is about an Orkney man called John Rae, who worked for the Hudson bay company and was asked to try and find the missing explorer John Franklin. Franklin was in my eyes a bit of an idiot, where as John Rae was one hardcore dude who lived in the arctic wilderness without a worry in the world because he learned from and lived like the natives. Now that's one man on this world i could consider an idol.

So. Not a book review as such but if your into a bit of history, here's three great books of mine that i totally recommend.
