Did you know that water vapor is invisible and actually lighter than dry air? What separates a tropical storm from a winter blizzard? And what exactly is El Niño? Elliot Rappaport, a professional captain of traditional sailing ships, has spent three decades at sea, where understanding weather is crucial to the safety of vessels and their crews. Here he offers a sailor’s-eye view of the moving parts of our atmosphere and unveils the larger patterns it holds: global winds, storms, air masses, jet streams, and the longer arc of our climate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"mobile-about-the-book\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"seemore-0\" class=\"slot product-about 9780593185056 isbn-related seemoreenable show opened\" target-height=\"766.906\" height-fold=\"377\"\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"overview\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTold through a series of tall ship voyages, Rappaport’s narrative takes readers from the icy seas of Greenland to the Roaring Forties, places where one can experience all four seasons in an hour. He navigates the turbulent waters of the Strait of Gibraltar, en route to storied port cities of the Mediterranean. In the vast tropical Pacific he crosses the equator, where heat, moisture, and unsettled winds churn out powerful squalls, and drops anchor in isolated ports of call. He explores wide swathes of ocean to explain how the trade winds have carried ships westward for centuries, and how ancient Polynesian explorers pushed back the other way, leveraging their mastery of waves and weather to achieve what may be humanity’s greatest navigational achievement.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eby Elliot Rappaport\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e323 pp., Hardcover\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e6 1\/4\" x 9 1\/2\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penquin\/Random House Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43714400878810,"sku":"300-944","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0053\/4098\/7482\/products\/ReadingtheGlass.jpg?v=1676663648"},{"product_id":"devlins-boatbuildings-manual","title":"Devlin's Boatbuilding Manual 2nd edition","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFor nearly 30 years, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDevlin’s Boatbuilding Manual\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e has been walking backyard boat builders like you through the process of creating a beautiful, seaworthy vessel with your own hands.

href=\"https:\/\/lostartpress.com\/pages\/what-is-artisan-geometry\"\u003eartisan geometry\u003c\/a\u003e\" series – explores furniture design by delving into simple proportions in a new and deep way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere, Jim Tolpin and George Walker take a close look at iconic pieces of furniture from different periods, and show you the proportional systems behind each of them at work. Then, they take you a step beyond, and show how to use that same system to create an entirely new design – a piece with bones that can successfully work in just about any design aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you have been following\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/lostartpress.com\/collections\/design\"\u003ethe work of George and Jim\u003c\/a\u003e, this new book will expand your understanding of artisan geometry and how to make it work for you. If you are new to furniture design, “Good Eye” is a great point of entry into to the topic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book begins by showing you how to find the simple shapes behind a piece of furniture. Then how to tease out the \"module\" (or two) that is the building block of that design. Then you can use that module to scale mouldings, rails, stiles, drawers and negative space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf this sounds difficult, don’t worry. “Good Eye” teaches you through example. The lessons begin with a simple 17th-century chest. The authors show you the basic system behind the chest‘s overall proportions. They then explain (using words and clear line drawings) how the module helps lay out the chest’s rails, stiles and panels. Once you understand the system behind the chest, Tolpin and Walker show you how to use the same system to design a contemporary hi-fi cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Good Eye” then marches forward with this format. Learn asymmetry with the help of pieces from Asia. Tackle secondary modules while exploring a Shaker sewing table. Then learn to improve existing designs with the process of “refinement,” where you play with different layouts (all using the same system) to find the one that is most pleasing. Then they explain ornamentation and curves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll of these high-minded ideas are backed up with real-world examples. The book has hundreds of line drawings that make each step understandable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike all Lost Art Press books, “Good Eye” is printed in the United States (Michigan, in this case). The book measures 8.5\" x 11\" and is 120 pages. The interior is printed in black and white with hundreds of line drawings on #60 natural paper. These pages are gathered into signatures, sewn together for durability then backed with fiber tape. The book block is attached to the hardcover with a heavy paper hinge. All this is wrapped in cloth and stamped with a metal die plus foil to create the cover image. Almost no one makes books this way any more.

Cost: about $6 for a quart of paint – and 10 minutes' work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWoodworker Nick Kroll spent two years formulating and testing his recipe for fresh milk  paint, which is based on historical recipes for casein paints – plus a little modern ingenuity. The paint goes on like an acrylic and dries fast – you can put on four coats in a day with no problem. Once dry, the paint has a low luster and hardens to become incredibly durable.  You can then leave the paint as-is or topcoat it with wax, oil or whatever you prefer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost of all, you can make paint in any color you want with inexpensive powdered artist  pigments. Take a deep red from the soil in Ercolano, Italy, where Pompeii is located. Use a sage green from France. One of the many ochres that color our world. Or select one of the many synthetic pigments that create colors not found in nature. All these pigments can be mixed to create any color of paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the 100-page pocket book, Nick show you how to make the paint using kitchen  equipment (a blender, household sauce pot and a strainer). The paint is made with a base of fresh quark – a protein-loaded cheese you can buy in many stores. If you can’t find quark, you can make it easily using skim milk and vinegar. Mix water, a little hydrated lime, the quark and your pigment, and you have paint that is ready to go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince we started editing “Make Fresh Milk Paint,” we’ve made dozens of batches of the  paint using Nick’s recipe and are amazed and impressed with the results. We love  powdered commercial milk paint, but this is a different animal altogether.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book offers complete instructions to make the paint, suggests some pigments to help you get started and offers all the encouragement and confidence you’ll need to get make your perfect paint at home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike all Lost Art Press titles, “Make Fresh Milk Paint” is produced and printed in the United States using domestic materials.
