Jenny Joseph was no ordinary poet - and Led by the Nose is no ordinary memoir. Shaped around the smells of the English countryside, it is full of the wilful personality and the sly humour that characterised the purple-clad old woman in her iconic poem 'Warning'. Joseph's eccentricities permeate each chapter as she flows through the gardening year with its chores and blossoms, frequently leading the reader off the garden path to stop, smell the roses, and ignore the world for a while. Full of the sensual awareness of Jenny Joseph's poetry, Led by the Nose is a singular memoir: a work of delicious diversion and literary flair, horticultural anxieties and countercultural tendencies, providing a glimpse - or sniff - of the landscape of this treasured poet's life.
People should ask the question of why. As children, they use their imagination and can become anything thing they want until they are told they can’t. They can conform to the thinking of the masses or they can dare explore a different reality that is not accepted by most. This book is that journey,” JP Bee states. In “Honeysuckle” (published by Xlibris), she tells a story about Augusta, a girl exploring a different reality. The loss of early-childhood memories sparks and restarts a journey that opens the doors to hidden secrets along with passions, wisdom and adventures, including astral projection, the ah-ha sense of the moment of time, spiritual activity, gifts and the prompting of subjects, regeneration and recreation of time. “This is a unique and creative story that is meant to be entertaining; it might help people answer many questions about what if?” the author says. “Dealing with the pain of losing someone or facing one's own death can be eased. They can find a reason why things are the way they are and can stop dwelling on why this happened to them, why they have to feel pain, and what is their possible purpose in life.” When asked what she wants readers to take away from her writing of the book, the author replies, “Anything is possible, even knowing more about the taboo world of the paranormal, the ghost that haunts you, and the supernatural power we all have inside us but have over eons of time forgotten. You just have to be willing to pay the price for this knowledge living and thinking outside the box. Everything you ever wanted to know, everywhere you ever wanted to go and every person that enters and passes through your life is placed there for you or by you to experience and learn from. All you need to do is open your eyes, your heart, and your mind to other truths and possibilities.”

What did nineteenth-century cities smell like? And how did odors matter in the formation of a modern environmental consciousness? Smell Detectives follows the nineteenth-century Americans who used their noses to make sense of the sanitary challenges caused by rapid urban and industrial growth. Melanie Kiechle examines nuisance complaints, medical writings, domestic advice, and myriad discussions of what constituted fresh air, and argues that nineteenth-century city dwellers, anxious about the air they breathed, attempted to create healthier cities by detecting and then mitigating the most menacing odors. Medical theories in the nineteenth century assumed that foul odors caused disease and that overcrowded cities—filled with new and stronger stinks—were synonymous with disease and danger. But the sources of offending odors proved difficult to pinpoint. The creation of city health boards introduced new conflicts between complaining citizens and the officials in charge of the air. Smell Detectives looks at the relationship between the construction of scientific expertise, on the one hand, and “common sense”—the olfactory experiences of common people—on the other. Although the rise of germ theory revolutionized medical knowledge and ultimately undid this form of sensory knowing, Smell Detectives recovers how city residents used their sense of smell and their health concerns about foul odors to understand, adjust to, and fight against urban environmental changes.

Tree by Tree is a warning and a toolkit for the future of forest recovery. Scott J. Meiners investigates the critical biological threats endangering tree species native to the forests of eastern North America, providing a needed focus on this plight. Meiners suggests that if we are to save our forests, the first step is to recognize the threats in front of us. Meiners focuses on five familiar trees—the American elm, the American chestnut, the eastern hemlock, the white ash, and the sugar maple—and shares why they matter economically, ecologically, and culturally. From outbreaks of Dutch elm disease to infestations of emerald ash borers, Meiners highlights the challenges that have led or will lead to the disappearance of these trees from forests. In doing so, he shows us how diversity loss often disrupts intricately balanced ecosystems and how vital it is that we pay more attention to massive changes in forest composition. With practical steps for the conservation of native tree species, Tree by Tree offers the inspiration and insights we need to begin saving our forests.
I have always prided myself on having a good memory but suddenly I looked in the mirror and saw a woman with white hair. Who was she? She looked familiar, but was she someone I knew? Internally, I am still this nubile creature anxiously awaiting another day, another adventure and every person a puzzle. Did I have all the adventures? Did I solve all the puzzles? Did I have a memory lapse? Did I move to another dimension? When did I get older? When did I grow up? Am I really wiser and mellower? I dont think so. All the people I have known and met have seen my face and that is where Ive been. The reflection of how others perceived me is the image I have of myself. There have been a variety of faces over the years but I seem to remember only the smiling, happy ones. I must have an erase mode that wipes out all the negative images I received. I feel the same as I did, ten, twenty, thirty years ago or I think I do. There is always, not necessarily a fire in my belly, but certainly there are an abundant number of embers that with a little fanning begins to glow. There is still the mischievous five year old, the sober twelve year old, and the earnest twenty-one and on it goes, but who is that woman I now see in the mirror. I guess I will just have to get in touch with my inner child and tell it You dont have to act your age but try to be considerate of that woman in the mirror. It could turn out to be you.
Words to a writer are as exotic as spices to a gourmet cook. Writers savor the feel of the perfect verb. Writers work and rework sentences and paragraphs until each word feels right as it rolls off the tongue or the pen (or the computer). Consider yourself invited to turn the page and meet the writers who are about to entertain you. You will know them as they lead you on their adventures. They will coax you to remember a crazy character, will perhaps make you cry. And, just maybe, as they draw your rapt at-tention with their short stories, essays, and poetry, you will realize, Hey, I think I can write stories . . . I think I should join the AAUW Creative Writers group. Well wait for your call. Special thanks go to writer and editor Greta Manville, the groups most published author, and to the members who joined me on the editing team: Vivian Wood, the groups most lettered colleague, and Bonnie Boyce-Wilson, who organized our efforts. Go on . . . step inside . . . you will not be disappointed.
