Paperback. Zustand: Fair. After more than 45 years of turkey-hunting experience with some of the best callers and hunters in the nation, author John E. Phillips has developed The Turkey Hunter's Bible to be a complete reference on how to find, call, take, clean and prepare the wild turkey for the table. The author has taken several birds of each subspecies of wild turkey in the continental United States and Mexico. But more importantly, he's hunted with some of the greatest turkey hunters who ever have lived. In this black and white version of The Turkey Hunter's Bible, you'll get: the most up-to-date, complete guide to one of America's fastest-growing hunting sports; complete coverage of every aspect of the sport - hunting gear, techniques, turkey species, shooting, bowhunting and much more; and plenty of turkey pictures, hunting pictures and line drawings. Using these hunting tips, you also can photograph turkeys in the wild - either with a still camera or a video camera. The mating ritual of the wild turkey gobbler is a beautiful thing to see. When a mature tom spreads his tail, calls all of his feathers to attention, so they stand and make the bird look almost twice as big as he is, he's showing-off for the hens. Whether you want to photograph wild turkeys or take wild turkeys, this book will provide you with the information you need to meet the toms on their own turf. However, the author issues this caution, Turkey hunting is very addictive. The call of the wild turkey gobbler is as alluring as the call of the Sirens of ancient Greece. And, I've found that when the dogwoods bloom, and Jack Frost is chased-away by Mother Earth, resisting the temptation to go to the woods and call a gobbler is almost impossible.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What if the student isn't the problem Every educator has known the student who seems checked out, unmotivated, disruptive, resistant, or simply unreachable. It is easy to look at what a student is doing-or failing to do-and decide we understand what they are capable of.But what if we are measuring something else In Built for This: Making a Case for the Misunderstood Student, educator John Phillips asks readers to reconsider what happens when capable young people encounter environments that were never designed with them in mind. Drawing from classrooms, esports teams, Minecraft worlds, maker spaces, professional learning, and more than a few lessons learned the hard way, Phillips explores the difference between a student who cannot do something and one who hasn't shown us what they can do under the conditions we have created.This is not an argument for lowering expectations, abandoning structure, or replacing good teaching with the newest educational trend. Sometimes students need direct instruction. Sometimes they need more practice. Sometimes they need boundaries. And sometimes the most important thing an educator can do is recognize that the method, the environment, or even their own assumptions may need to change.At the center of the book is a deceptively simple question: What do they need Not: What program should we buy Not: What does the pacing guide say should happen today Not even: What am I supposed to do next What do these learners, in this moment, need in order to move forward Funny, reflective, occasionally uncomfortable, and grounded in the messy reality of working with actual humans, Built for This is a case for curiosity over certainty, belonging through contribution, purposeful struggle, authentic work, and environments that make room for students to surprise us.Because current performance is evidence. It is not a verdict on potential.…

Full-Leather. Zustand: Good. Published in London in 1712 this is an early English edition of the Memoirs of Philippe de Commines (or de Commynes or "Philippe de Comines"; Latin: Philippus Cominaeus; 1447 - 18 October 1511) He was a writer and diplomat in the courts of Burgundy and France THE MEMOIRS Commines's Memoirs were completed (first published in 1524 in Paris), and is considered a historical record of immense importance, largely because of its author's cynical and forthright attitude to the events and machinations he had witnessed. His writings reveal many of the less savory aspects of the reign of Louis XI, and Commines related them without apology, insisting that the late king's virtues outweighed his vices. He is regarded as a major primary source for 15th century European history. The Mémoires are divided into "books", the first six of which were written between 1488 and 1494, and relate the course of events from the beginning of Commines' career (1464) up to the death of King Louis. The remaining two books were written between 1497 and 1501 (printed in 1528), and deal with the Italian wars, ending in the death of King Charles VIII of France. The deathbed of Philippe de Commines. Commines' scepticism is summed up in his own words: Car ceux qui gagnent en ont toujours l'honneur ("For the honours always go to the winners"). Some have disputed whether his candid phrases disguise a deeper dishonesty. Yet at no time does he attempt to present himself as a hero, even when recounting his military career. His attitude to politics is one of pragmatism, and his ideas are practical and progressive. His reflections on the events he has witnessed are profound by comparison with those of Froissart, who lived a century earlier. His psychological insights into the behaviour of kings are ahead of their time, reminiscent in some ways of the contemporaneous writings of Niccolò Machiavelli. Like Machiavelli, Commines aims to instruct the reader in statecraft, though from a slightly different viewpoint. In particular, he notes how Louis repeatedly got the better of the English, not by military might, but by political machination THE BOOKS the books are bound in old full leather bindings with embossed patterned decoration to boards, just under 8 inches tall, in two volumes with a further work, The Scandalous Chronicle of King Lewis XI King of France bound in at the rear of the second volume CONDITION the bindings are rubbed and worn at edges with cracking to joints, upper board of volume one attached by binding cords only, wear with loss to leather at spine ends and corners, internally there are a number of crested bookplates of former owners with the coats of arms, including Reverend Edward Orlebar Smith of Aspley House in Bedfordshire Gilbert Langdon Hume, and Berkley Seymour, his bookplates have been affixed to the reverse of the title pages heavy browning to edges of endpapers, some wrinkling of paper within else the contents to both volumes generally in nice condition, this is a heavier two volume set, overseas shipping costs will be slightly higher than the basic standard quote.…
