A 'must' for anyone interested in England's most popular county.
Whether you're looking for an easy afternoon stroll along the shore, a riverside ramble to an atmospheric country pub or a tor-topping trek on the moors, there's something to suit every boot in Patrick Kinsella's inspiring collection of 40 Devon coast and country walks.
Devon er en lysende, konsentrert diktsamling som setter det personlige og kroppslige i nåtiden opp mot eldgamle skriftverk og mytologier. Gjennom glimtvise og fragmentariske landskapsbilder utgjør de hvite klippene ved Devon et slags drømmested for dikter-jeget, et konkret geografisk utgangspunkt å dikte ut fra. De hurtige, hyppige og nærmest deliriske referansesprangene gir samlingen et særegent spenn. Diktene er dypt originale og berørende, og kan sies å ha en større letthet i seg enn Moe-Repstads tidligere samlinger.Devon er Nils Chr. Moe-Repstads ellevte diktsamling og hans femte utgivelse på Flamme Forlag.

A historical romance set in eighteenth-century Australia, in the tradition of Diana Gabaldon.
Reviewer's ChoiceMidwest Book Review, Children's Bookwatch, June 2015"A deftly crafted and original story, 'Devon: TheWild Adventures of Devon and Friends' is very highly recommended for both school and community library collections."Devon, the Wild Adventures of Devon and Friends is an illustrated storybook in verses with 30 illustrations for young readers ages 4 to 11. It is one long adventure story told in 70 pages of catchy rhymes. Little boy Devon visits the Zoo with his friends Qi, the wise panda bear, and his hungry, not-so-wise mutt, Picco. The Panda and Picco get in trouble and Devon enlists a stray dog, Hot Trot, and his army of strays to save them. Violence doesn't pay, and the strays are locked up as 'mean' dogs. New friends, a first-grade girl and her classmates, help Devon liberate all his furry friends from their scary plight, using their smarts and artistic talents. The book's format is amenable to staging and character reading and offers the opportunity of an interactive entertaining and educational experience. The book may be used by non-native English speakers, children and adults, to study English, on account of its rhyming recall qualities. The book extols values such as friendship, learning, peaceful solutions, at the expense of violence and vanity.
Devon Berry's mother was told to abort him because the doctors believed that either he, or his twin sister, would be born with complications. Cerebral palsy was the least of his problems: he had a stroke soon after birth and has fought an uphill battle for 20 years with various illnesses. What no one could imagine was the pain beyond the struggle: the ridicule, taunts, bullying and nightmares that almost caused Devon to commit suicide. He will share what saved him and what continues to strengthen him to achieve his goals, from being an athlete all to being a competitor for the 2020 Paralympics. If this book does not transform your life, and the lives of your family, NOTHING will

It recounts several notable cases, from the killing of Sarah and Edward Glass at Wadland Down in 1827 and the poisonings of Samuel Wescombe in Exeter in 1829 and William Ashford at Honiton Clyst in 1866, both by wives whose affections had gone elsewhere, to the horrific murder of Emma Doidge and her boyfriend William Rowe by the former's jilted suitor at Peter Tavey in 1892, as well as the strangling of schoolgirl Alice Gregory in 1916, and the triple murder of Emily Maye and her daughters at West Charleton, Kingsbridge, in 1936, which remains unsolved to this day. Above all, there is an account of Devon's most famous case, the murder of Emma Keyse at Babbacombe and the convicted servant John Lee - the man they couldn't hang. John Van der Kiste's carefully researched, well-illustrated and enthralling text will appeal to anyone interested in the shady side of Devon's history.
Torre Abbey is an archaeological site of national importance. Founded in 1196, it became the wealthiest English monastery of the order of Premonstratensian canons. The extent of its survival makes Torre Abbey the best preserved medieval abbey in Devon and Cornwall. After King Henry VIII closed the monastery in 1539, two of its former ranges were adapted for use as a private house. From 1662, this house became the home of the Roman Catholic Cary family, who lived there for nearly 300 years. The story of Torre Abbey mirrors in a remarkable way the story of English Catholics during the years of the penal laws. The local council acquired Torre Abbey in 1930, and adapted it for use as an art gallery and Mayor’s Parlour. Today, the abbey provides an ideal setting for Torbay’s collection of paintings and antiques, most of which have been donated by local people. It has recently been restored and modernised. This book is the first complete history of Torre Abbey. It is based on the latest historical and architectural research, and is richly illustrated throughout.
