More > modern world it’s cheap to buy, all supermarkets stock it, and most people never give much thought to it. This book is an attempt to widen our view of salt.

It’s not really intended to be read from cover to cover but to be dipped into, whenever the fancy takes you. This book is a result of my dabbling in the world of salt!

Palestinian Graffiti & Cartoons
By Mik Rolight
Ebook (PDF):
Free
Download immediately
Throughout the whole period of the Israeli Occupation, Palestinian art has continued to express the feelings of its people... More > and their yearning for a better future and a country of their own. Their art covers the whole gamut of the very meaning of the word “art” and encompasses everything from the classical Palestinian paintings, through the evocative photographs, the graffiti, the cartoons, the children’s drawings and everything in between.
This book concentrates mainly on the grass roots sort of art, the cartoons, the graffiti, and the photographs - but a few conventional paintings are also included for interest. This volume is merely a collection of images that I have collected over the years and some that have been sent to me by people who know of my interest in the subject. Rather than just keeping the images on my own computer, I decided to put them in a book format to share with anyone who may be interested. < Less |

Dave puts together books almost entirely for his own interest (although he hopes others may find them interesting too) and ALL revenues from ALL books are donated to various charities.
Hey ..... when you are looking at this site don't forget that each book is often available in a number of different formats .... hardback, paperback, PDF and e-book format. MAKE SURE YOU ORDER THE RIGHT FORMAT!
Some folk have asked ... if the author doesn't make any money on the sale of ANY of the books ... where does the profit go? Well , it goes all over the place .. but NOT to me.The cash from some books goes straight to the "groups" involved in the subject of that particular book ... "Bolton Mountain Rescue", "Red Rose Steam Society" etc. ALL the rest goes to helping those in the 3rd World who want to help themselves ... Look at http://www.kiva.org/lender/dave6087 for details
