Book Description
In this beautifully written and deeply moving book, Rita Moir draws strength from her father’s words as she deals with a relationship with an abusive man, the challenges of living on her own in the country, and the disappointment of another thwarted romance. In turn, she offers the same strength to her father when he must confront his own illness, loss of memory, and death. Through these experiences, Moir faces the reality of death and encounters her windshift line—the boundary where opposing forces collide, twist and swirl—and she comes out on top. In the end, she transforms loneliness, fear, and loss into life-affirming power and renewal.

"Amateur weather forecasters (which includes just about everyone) will find this volume an informative and entertaining account of the why and how of the weather." — The Nation In simple language, Eric Sloane explains the whys and wherefores of weather and weather forecasting — and does it in a style that's universally appealing.

This beautifully illustrated and practical treasure trove of climate lore will enlighten outdoorsmen, farmers, sailors, and anyone else who has ever wondered what a large halo around the moon means, why birds "sit it out" before a storm, and whether or not to take an umbrella when leaving the house.
