This transformative collection features Indigenous and settler peoples who engaged in years of circle work to unpack how colonialism affects their lives and professional practices. Circle work is an Indigenous methodology of building knowledge and challenging unexamined colonial assumptions. It reveals that de-colonizing isn’t linear; it is an embodied process that unfolds on multiple levels. The practices described in this book centre Indigegogy — a relational, land-based, spirit-centred approach to learning that invites vulnerability, reflexivity, and truth telling. While each person engages from their cultural context and position in society, every contributor shares how pivotal, “holy shit” moments during the experience of circle work have reshaped their ways of being.Guided by circle work, digital storying, and land-based teachings, this is an intimate encounter with Indigenous knowledge and lived accounts of people who chose to wake up, to feel, and to act differently in the world.

The Democratic Duke and The Mystery of Lady Shrewsbury offers a fresh, elegantly told portrait of George Villiers, 2nd Duke of Buckingham-the first full biography of him in over seventy years. Far from the reckless courtier of popular legend, Buckingham emerges here as a man of charm, wit and generosity: a patron of the arts, a political reformer, and a figure deeply engaged with the shifting ideas of his age.Set against the backdrop of a nation finding its way after civil war, this book explores Buckingham's role in the early stirrings of constitutional monarchy. At a time when the rigid certainties of divine right were beginning to soften, he championed tolerance, fairness and a more inclusive vision of society-qualities that lend him a surprising modernity.At its heart, however, lies a story as intriguing as any hidden behind the walls of a great country house. For more than three centuries, it has been assumed that Buckingham's great love was Anna Maria Brudenell, Countess of Shrewsbury. Drawing on careful research and a keen eye for detail, this book reveals a far more compelling truth: that Buckingham was, in fact, in love with the earl's first wife, Anne Conyers. She was the childhood friend of the duke's own wife, Mary Fairfax who Buckingham and Mary helped to escape from her unhappy marriage before the Restoration. Blending political insight with intimate human drama, this is a biography for readers who delight in the lives, loves and legacies that shaped Britain's historic houses and landscapes-and in the untold stories that still linger within them.
