Books like Beauty Tips from Moose Jaw by Will Ferguson

First Penguin Edition

Charles Dickens’s 1841–42 American journey, as recorded in "American Notes," chronicles his travels from the eastern seaboard through the Great Lakes states, offering his observations on slavery, customs, and the social life of the United States.

A celebration of life’s small delights, *The Book of Awesome* compiles funny, wise observations that remind us the best moments are often free.*

Robyn Davidson follows the nomadic Rabari of north‑west India across the Thar Desert, immersing herself in their harsh, resource‑scarce life and revealing the relentless challenges faced by these traditional pastoralists.

A stunningly witty exploration of the American landscape -- not to mention a brilliant comic's mind -- this diary is chock-full of everything you ever wanted to know about Eric Idle, Monty Python, America, and sleeping on a bus. In these pages, the sixth-nicest Python is cheeky, touching, and funny when recounting the riotous tales of his beginnings, his affectionate reminiscences of his fellow Pythons, traveling the world, and taking us backstage at the smash Broadway hit Spamalot.Fascinating, moving, at times even amusing, this book will dramatically improve your sex life, will make you feel intelligent and charming within the first several pages, and after a few chapters, will permanently eliminate all your personal or health problems. So come experience eighty days, 15,750 miles, and forty-nine cities as you never have before!

The toils, troubles, and satisfactions of pioneer life are recorded with charm and vivacity on *The Backwoods of Canada*, by Catherine Parr Traill, who, like her sister Susanna Moodie, left the comforts of genteel English society for the rigours of a new, young land. Traill offers a vivid and honest account of her trip to North America and of her first two and a helf years living in the bush country near Peterborough, Ontario. Treasured by its nineteenth-century readers as an important source of practical information, *The Backwoods of Canada* is an extraordinary portrayal of pioneer life by one of early Canada's most remarkable women. The New Canadian Library edition is an unabridged reprint of the complete original text and all its illustrations.
