The definitive photographic guide to the astounding avifauna of Costa Rica.

Birdwatching in Costa Rica is one of the world's great nature experiences, with 850 species on its national list. A place of transition between South and Central American avifaunas, spectacular birds such as toucans, hummingbirds, trogons, macaws and tanagers are abundant throughout its extensive montane forests, with further riches to be found in the coastal lowlands and wetlands.

Concise text for each species includes information on identification, songs and calls, behaviour, distribution and habitat, with each photograph carefully selected to aid identification.

"One Hundred Years of Solitude is the first piece of literature since the Book of Genesis that should be required reading for the entire human race. . . . García Márquez has done nothing less than to create in the reader a sense of all that is profound, meaningful, and meaningless in life." —William Kennedy, National ObserverOne of the most influential literary works of our time, One Hundred Years of Solitude remains a dazzling and original achievement by the masterful Gabriel García Márquez, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature. It's now available as a special Harper Perennial Olive Edition.The story of the village of Macondo, as seen through the lives of seven generations of the Buendía family, is told with Marquez’s trademark mastery of magical realism. The founders, José Arcadio Buendía and Úrsula Iguarán, establish the village while camping on a riverbank, after José dreams about a "city of mirrors" that would reflect the world. The people of the town - which is solitary and disconnected from the outside world, save for a band of nomads that visits every year - experience extraordinary events across generations, until they are finally unable to hide from the the newly independent government of Colombia.&nbsp;Alternately reverential and comical, One Hundred Years of Solitude weaves the political, personal and spiritual to bring a new consciousness to storytelling.&nbsp;The novel has been translated into dozens of languages, making it a classic of truly global proportions.Harper Perennial Olive Editions are exclusive small-format editions of some of our bestselling and celebrated titles, and feature unique hand-drawn cover illustrations.

One Hundred Years of Solitude

The problem started, as problems often do, with a penguin. From Kings and Emperors to Macaronis and Rockhoppers, penguins are one of the most immediately recognisable animals Earth. Yet for all that familiarity, what do we really know about them? An Inconvenience of Penguins follows award-winning travel writer Jamie Lafferty as he visits all 18 species in a bid to understand the birds and their extraordinarily varied habitats a little better. On voyages to some of the world's most inaccessible and challenging landscapes, he recounts the history of our unique relationship with the world's most popular bird, telling stories of the penguins, but also the people and places around them. From getting stranded in the Galapagos to marching through African guano fields, and leading photography groups in the Antarctic to taking psychedelics on the Falklands, this is a birding quest like no other. Along the way Lafferty relives the experiences of early polar explorers, for who penguins were perplexing mysteries, welcome companions and even occasional meals, and meets the modern penguin lovers trying to save their fragile environments. Featuring cameos from a wide cast of characters including Ernest Shackleton, Charles Darwin, and Sir Francis Drake, as well as beautiful photographs of each penguin species, An Inconvenience of Penguins is part-love letter to and part-biography of these remarkable creatures.

'An ode to one of the world's best-loved birds' Harper's Bazaar 'The perfect book for the penguin person in your life' Daunt Books 'A joy' Horatio Clare, The Spectator 'Electrifyingly charismatic' Dan Snow, author of On This Day in History 'The world's best-loved bird from the world's best-known publisher - what's not to like?' Stephen Moss, author of The Bird Biography series 'Simply wonderful. If you like feeling joy, you'll love this book' Tristan Gooley, author of How to Read a Tree 'Beautifully written and illustrated' Matt Merritt, Editor of Bird Watching * A charming and beautifully illustrated book about the world's most beloved bird, written by Peter Fretwell, a leading scientist at The British Antarctic Survey, and illustrated by Lisa Fretwell. There's something about penguins that makes them irresistible. Maybe it's their comical waddle, their black-and-white 'tuxedo' plumage, or their apparent cheerfulness in the face of extreme weather conditions. Whatever the reason, their cult following around the globe is indisputable. Penguins can tell us so much about the world we live in - and what the future of both our species might look like. In The Penguin Book of Penguins, leading British Antarctic scientist Peter Fretwell introduces us to eighteen charismatic species of penguin and the fascinating lives they lead: their evolution, behaviours and habitats, and their history with humans. From the fact that emperor penguins dive twice as deep as any other bird, to the story of a king penguin called Sir Nils Olav III who was made a Major General by the Norwegian Army, we discover through fascinating first-hand encounters (and even penguin jokes and emojis!) why penguins matter so greatly to all of us.
