Mountain Home: The Wilderness Poetry of Ancient ChinaThe earliest and most extensive literary engagement with wilderness in human history, Mountain Home is vital poetry that feels utterly contemporary. China's tradition of "rivers and mountains" poetry stretches across millennia. This is a plain spoken poetry of immediate day to day experience, and yet seems most akin to China's grand landscape paintings. Although its wisdom is ancient, rooted in Taoist and Zen thought, the work feels utterly
The earliest and most extensive literary engagement with wilderness in human history, Mountain Home is vital poetry that feels utterly contemporary. China's tradition of "rivers-and-mountains" poetry stretches across millennia. This is a plain-spoken poetry of immediate day-to-day experience, and yet seems most akin to China's grand landscape paintings. Although its wisdom is ancient, rooted in Taoist and Zen thought, the work feels utterly contemporary, especially as rendered here in Hinton's rich and accessible translations. Mountain Home collects poems from 5th- through 13th-century China and includes the poets Li Po, Po Chu-i and Tu Fu. The "rivers-and-mountains" tradition covers a remarkable range of topics: comic domestic scenes, social protest, travel, sage recluses, and mountain landscapes shaped into forms of enlightenment. And within this range, the poems articulate the experience of living as an organic part of the natural world and its processes. In an age of global ecological disruption and mass extinction, this tradition grows more urgently important every day. Mountain Home offers poems that will charm and inform not just readers of poetry, but also the large community of readers who are interested in environmental awareness.Binding Type: Paperback

Fly back / duel time zone / under 200 bucks!!!!!
Color: Stainless Steel, Color: Stainless Steel
Incredible people don’t realize Timex is American history. It’s heavy and it’s a flyback chronograph with a dual time., that’s an expensive complication on any other watch. This would be thousands , it’s almost like a fidget toy lol , you have six hands that are working you can dual time on the chronograph as it flies back and have dual time zones for the money. It’s a no-brainer.

Like the best military items: does exactly what it's used for:
Color: Black
Even better than the infantry watch I used in the USAF 50 years ago. It has 12/24 hour time and day/date; other models have additional features. It's rugged and easy to read - a real watch face, NOT digital ! ... AND inexpensive too. BTW it has a real watch band made to be used in the elements (e.g. weather, work).

Infantry 5ATM Waterproof Mens Military Tactical Field Watch, Date & Day 12/24Hr-
Color: Silver
So I almost never write reviews- anywhere. This is an exception & I'm not paid or reimbursed- just impressed.
This watch presents a really good price to value ratio.
My infantry watch looks great and is very functional. I put a NATO strap on it because I tend to be tough with watches, though the one it arrived with is very nice looking and the buckle is even logo'd- a really nice touch in this price segment. I've received several positive compliments while wearing it and 1 of my friends has purchased an Infantry field watch from this same series since.
The company behind the watch is part of the value equation. I had a minor issue and I was able to get in touch with a real person... no, actually two! I contacted via Amazon AND through the support dept from their website. Both inquiries were promptly answered with a helpful and well-mannered reply and the perfect solution.
There are several collections to be found on their website (SEARCH: Infantry Watches ). These watches range in appointment and quality from levels found here to several steps above. Similar in looks and nature to this one on Amazon include; The Chronomaster, The Skeleton, and The Auto-Pilot to name a few.
I've begun to add additional watches to my collection from those. There are also fun and informal collaborations offered. Right now [8-2025] these include; Transformers, Monopoly, Peanuts and several others.
---> Overall it's rare and refreshing to find a company still able to work decent products AND ethics into a successful business model!
