Reisverhaal The Man Who Cycled the Americas | Mark Beaumont

The story of a second epic and record-breaking endurance adventure by the author of the bestselling and award-winningThe Man Who Cycled the World. In 2008, Mark Beaumont smashed the world record for cycling around the world, by an astonishing 81 days. His race against the clock took him through the toughest terrain and the most demanding of conditions. In 2009, Mark set out on his second ultra-endurance challenge. And this one would involve some very big mountains. The Man Who Cycled the Americastells the story of a 15,000 mile expedition that once again broke the barriers of human achievement. To pedal the longest mountain range on the planet, solo and unsupported, presented its own unique difficulties. But no man had ever previously summited the continents' two highest peaks, Mt. McKinley in Alaska and Aconcagua in Argentina, in the same climbing season, let alone cycling between them. Oh, and Mark had never even been up Ben Nevis before. Full of his trademark charm, warmth and…

Reisgids Somaliland | Bradt Travel Guides

Voor vele landen net zo goed, zo niet beter dan de Planet. Beduidend soberder uitgevoerd, maar ook met veel informatie voor backpackers en met veel kaartmateriaal. Een aanrader! There is a reason no other publisher produces a guide to Somaliland: it is not an easy book to produce. The research is extremely challenging, the production is expensive and, because Somaliland is such a niche travel destination, the sales potential is very limited. Unfortunately, the first edition of this book did not recoup its costs. We were left with a difficult decision: increase the retail price to make a second edition possible or admit defeat and allow the guide to go out of print. We don’t like to admit defeat. This second edition is significantly more expensive than the first edition, but we sincerely hope you’ll understand why that is the case, and feel that the revised price still represents excellent value for such vital and unique information. We are committed to providing high quality tra…

Reisverhaal The Boardman Tasker Omnibus | Boardman & Tasker

Peter Boardman and Joe Tasker were at the cutting edge of mountaineering during the 1970s and early 1980s. Talented writers as well as climbers, they left two legacies. One was their great endeavour, their climbs on high peaks with bold, lightweight and innovative methods; the second and more lasting achievement was the books they wrote and left behind. The Boardman Tasker Omnibus brings together four books in which the two men describe their remarkable climbs, expeditions and first ascents. The books have become mountaineering classics; incredibly popular and brilliantly written accounts that set the standard for mountaineering literature. Tasker's Everest the Cruel Way is the story of an attempt to climb the highest mountain on earth by a new route - a climb which proved too much for a group of Britain's finest mountaineers. And in Savage Arena, Tasker vividly describes his participation in the first British winter ascent of the North Face of the Eiger, his first ascent of the We…

Wandelgids St. Paul Trail | Kate Clow

De St Paul Trail is een nieuw bewegwijzerd pad in Turkije. Zoals het eerste GR-pad in Turkije, de Lycian Way, is ook dit pad vooral de creatie van de onvermoeibare Kate Clow, een engelse vrouw die al meer dan 15 jaar in Turkije woont. De afstand bedraagt ruwweg 600 km en het pad is volledig gemarkeerd vanaf 2003 en beschreven. Bovendien wordt alles “op de voet” gevolgd en begeleid met een uitstekende website. Erg uitgebreid gaat het boek in op de geschiedenis en exploratie van een aantal archeologische plaatsen die je op de tocht passeert. Hierdoor is het boek ook bruikbaar voor zij die niet zo geïnteresseerd zijn in wandelen maar wel in afgelegen en eerder onbekende vergane steden uit de klassieke periode. Het boek staat bol van praktische info en tips verzameld door jaren te wandelen in dit gebied. The landscape of Turkey's Toros mountains and lake district contrasts and combines inA brand new edition of the St Paul Trail guidebook, following the saint's journey from Perge, near Anta…

Yellowface

What's the harm in a pseudonym? Bestselling sensation Juniper Song is not who she says she is, she didn't write the book she claims she wrote, and she is most certainly not Asian American?in this chilling and hilariously cutting novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling author R. F. Kuang in the vein of White Ivy and The Other Black Girl. Authors June Hayward and Athena Liu were supposed to be twin rising stars: same year at Yale, same debut year in publishing. But Athena's a cross-genre literary darling, and June didn't even get a paperback release. Nobody wants stories about basic white girls, June thinks.So when June witnesses Athena's death in a freak accident, she acts on impulse: she steals Athena's just-finished masterpiece, an experimental novel about the unsung contributions of Chinese laborers to the British and French war efforts during World War I.So what if June edits Athena's novel and sends it to her agent as her own work? So what if she lets her new publisher rebrand…
