Part memoir, part detective story, part untold history of museums - The Museum Makers is a fascinating and moving family story. 'Rachel Morris is one of the smartest storytellers I have ever met ... a wonderful and beguiling book' James Rebanks, author of The Shepherd's Life Without even thinking I began to slide all these things from the dusty boxes under my bed into groups on the carpet, to take a guess at what belonged to whom, to match up photographs and handwriting to memories and names - in other words, to sort and classify. As I did so I had the revelation that in what we do with our memories and the stuff that our parents leave behind, we are all museum makers, seeking to makes sense of the past.; Museum expert Rachel Morris had been ignoring the boxes under her bed for decades. When she finally opened them, an entire bohemian family history was laid bare. The experience was revelatory - searching for her absent father in the archives of the Tate; understanding the loss and longings of the grandmother who raised her - and transported her back to the museums that had enriched her lonely childhood. By teasing out the stories of those early museum makers, and the unsung daughters and wives behind them, and seeing the same passions and mistakes reflected in her own family, Morris digs deep into the human instinct for collection and curation.

A Journey Backwards

Want more energy? Try a plant based diet! Doctors have long touted the benefits of eating a plant-based diet, and people are listening. The plant-based food industry is booming, and more food establishments are catering to the trend as people aim to increase their consumption of vegetables, fruits, and whole foods. Plant Based for Tired People addresses questions and concerns people have in order to ensure they find success from the get-go. First, we explore the evolution of the trend and explain exactly what it means to go plant-based. We also take a look at how adopting a primarily plant-based diet can positively affect one’s health, weight loss, and even the environment. Next, we give readers the tools they need to get started with a detailed plan for transitioning to the diet and a must-have food-shopping guide. We also inspire and encourage with real people’s success stories and expert advice on everything from cooking for a meat-loving family to eating out when following a plant-based diet. We end on a delicious note with 30 pages of drool-worthy recipes that even self-proclaimed carnivores will gobble up.
