Earth Pilgrim by Satish Kumar

Another good book, not to be missed!

"Satish Kumar has been a pilgrim ever since at the age of eight he joined the brotherhood of wandering Jain monks in his native India. Later he walked the length and breadth of India with Gandhi’s successor Vinoba Bhave, persuading landowners to donate a portion of their lands to the poor, and in the 1960s he made an 8,000-mile pilgrimage for peace, which included walking from India over the Himalayas to Paris via Moscow."

The Bee Photographer

These are truly awesome photographs of bees and honey gathering from around the world. Men hanging on ropes off cliffs in Nepal and women who keep bees in terra cotta jars in Mexico. Be sure and check out "At a Glance" and look at the link for each country and also the "Photo Library" pages.
