The Black Peacock by Rachel Manley Pdf

Friends since attending university in Jamaica, Lethe and Daniel have long realized they would never be good for each other. But Lethe is Daniel's muse, and theirs is a connection that proves unbreakable as they spend the next thirty years crisscrossing the Caribbean and travelling the world in search of work, love, and home. Now, Daniel has become an internationally renowned prize-winning poet, and Lethe aspires to be a writer in her own right. His invitation to her to join him at an isolated retreat, Peacock Island, gives them both a chance to reflect on the life they've shared. The debut novel by Governor General's Literary Award-winning author Rachel Manley, The Black Peacock is the story of two unforgettable characters, adrift on the ever-changing tides of the Caribbean, who are united by something less than passion but more than love.

Why Peacocks? by Sean Flynn Pdf

Until Flynn’s neighbor in North Carolina offered him one, he had never considered whether he wanted a peacock. His family became the owners of not one but three charming yet fickle birds: Carl, Ethel, and Mr. Pickle. Here he chronicles their first year as peacock owners, from struggling to build a pen to assisting the local bird doctor in surgery to triumphantly watching a peahen lay her first egg. He also examines the history of peacocks, from their appearance in the Garden of Eden. And Flynn travels across the globe to learn more about the birds firsthand. His book offers surprising lessons about love, grief, fatherhood, and family. -- adapted from jacket.

Peacock Bass Addiction by Larry Larsen Pdf

Lakeland, FL -- There are few, if any, writers more qualified or knowledgeable about peacock bass as Larry Larsen. In this, his third book in the series, Larsen reveals new methods and locations from his continued experimentation and exploration.From his many travels, it is apparent to Larsen that anglers who have even just one opportunity to tangle with peacock bass quickly become addicts. This compilation of the very latest information will help all addicts enjoy the most optimal quality of angling possible. In addition, this book attempts to provide readers with an honest overview of the numerous opportunities in South America and around the world where peacock bass exist. It also covers a large variety of peacock bass camps and operators in each country.Each of the first 12 chapters focuses on geographic areas within the various countries that almost always produce good peacock bass fishing. Chapter 13 Battles Won and Lost provides an experienced viewpoint on how to win battles with the giants. It points out common ways to lose the fish of your dreams and ways to prevent such a catastrophe. Chapter 14 discusses the range and seasonal movements of the peacock bass, critical elements to the success of any South American venture. Fly fishing advice is also covered in Chapter 16.I'm often asked about the most appropriate tackle to carry along on an expedition, says Larsen. My favorite lures, tackle and the types of habitats to use them in are also detailed in this book. It is amazing how little consideration is given to the proper tackle by most anglers, he adds. This is perhaps the most important of all pre-trip planning checklists.
