R623 Discovery Miles 6 230 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

The Chiltern Hills is a historical walking guidebook of eighteen circular walks between seven and ten miles.The Chiltern Hills are an area of hills northwest of London. These walks are confined to a small area north of Henley. Each walk has a map detailed with walk decription and is accompanied by much interesting local history notes. The walks pass through typical picturesque English villages, glorious countrysides with stunning views-England at its best. They pass by local village pubs, old churches, and village ponds. Country lanes, hills, valleys, woods, and streams are a feature in an area that has often been used in well-known films and TV series. Walks can be extended by combining more than one walk, or walks can be intersected at crossover points between walks. Some walks pass through nature reserves; others pass by the grounds of stately homes. The book is for the newcomer to walking as well as the experienced walker.

This third edition is expanded, revised and largely re-written. However the aim remains the same and it is hoped that anyone involved in Travel or Tropical Medicine will find the contents interesting, stimulating and helpful.

As before it is divided into easy-to-read sections with clear answers that sometimes encapsulate whole diseases.

The four-part question format is retained in order to aid those intending to take Certificate or other exams in Travel Medicine. The correct answer to each question is that which is generally accepted as the best one. Nonetheless the reader may quibble with some answers and the author is always happy to accept sound advice and change accordingly.

Travel Medicine has a broad canvas. It cuts across the boundaries of Infectious Diseases, Internal Medicine, Tropical Medicine, Geographical Medicine, Aviation and Refugee Medicine. Because of this the few Textbooks we have Travel Medicine are large and difficult to digest.

This little book attempts to set down in concise form the essential elements of Travel Medicine in a way that is easy to read yet challenging.

These pages certainly invite the reader to share in excitement and wonder of this fascinating subject.

Luxury has been both celebrated and condemned throughout history right up to the present day.

In Bible Places, H. B. Tristram aimed to provide a brief yet very informative description of every Holy Land site mentioned in the Bible. Tristram intended this book for a popular audience, especially "such as have neither time nor opportunity to refer to larger treatises on the geography of Palestine." Relying on the extensive research of the Palestinian Exploration Fund, Tristram's work afforded many a new and vividly descriptive perspective on the Holy Land and a new awareness of the geographical and topographical accuracy of the Bible.

Wilderness Trekking Oman - Map - Western Hajar Mountains (Sheet map): John Edwards Wilderness Trekking Oman - Map - Western Hajar Mountains (Sheet map)
John Edwards
R360 Discovery Miles 3 600 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This map is a practical addition to the guide for hiking in the Western Hajar, which is the western portion of the main mountain range in the Sultanate of Oman. The best walking weather in Oman is from mid-November to March. The traverse follows the spine of the mountains in a point-to-point walk taking sixteen days. It consists of eight one-day walks, two two-day walks and one four-day walk. There is a road intersection with a village or hotel between each of these eleven sections making it practical to walk sections rather than the full traverse. The track climbs to the highest accessible peak in the country at 2999m and finishes in remote dry valleys, called wadis, where impregnable cliffs have precluded road construction and electricity transmission. This has preserved the Arabian mountain lifestyle that has existed for centuries. This traverse is for hikers who are competent with GPS navigation, as only six of the sixteen day tracks are marked. There are two shorter options, of which one has two chain ladders that do not require ropes. These options together reduce the traverse to twelve days or make two multi-day circuits, one with hotels and the other entirely in the wilderness. A loop in the traverse can be used to make another three-day wilderness circuit, or can be skipped altogether to further reduce the traverse duration to nine days. In Oman there are no mountain rangers, so this traverse is for experienced hikers who are comfortable looking after themselves. I have selected the route over many years by linking ancient and current donkey trading and walking tracks. Exploring the Hajar Mountains with his family and Omani companions was John Edwards' passion during the sixteen years he spent living in Oman. His ambition with this project is to resurrect the historic trading routes connecting the mountain villages, enabling walking tourists to help sustain an emerging hospitality industry that uses some of the ancient village houses as hotel rooms, which otherwise will fall into ruin.

A book for and about inspiring people who are helping to keep the green movement going by working towards a more sustainable operation of their hotels, protecting wildlife, producing locally, promoting biodiversity and reducing their carbon footprint at the same time.  Patricia Parinejad highlights how we can reconnect more with the natural world and "Mother Earth" on the journey to inspire that all-important sense of awe for Namibia, its deserts and plains, and our planet in general.

Poland, as a result of its location and geography, has been an area of conflict throughout its long and turbulent history. It has had periods of greatness, independence and prosperity alternated with phases of foreign domination and disaster during which its boundaries and people have been divided by conquering nations. Despite this, culture flourished within the country and Poland was one of the most active countries during the Renaissance with some religious and social laws many countries today still do not have. The Sejm voted the monarchs of Poland into power beginning in 1572, which became an important step for political progress in Europe. On May 3, 1791, Poland adopted Europe's first democratic constitution -- the world's second after the American Constitution. "We are pleased and grateful for your effort put into writing this book. We hope it will help to provide information on Poland to many Anglophones. The part on Economy in Poland is accurate assuming the reader is looking for general information or she/he is running a preliminary research on the economy of our country." Marcin Walewski Deputy Commercial Attache Embassy of Poland .,."I am interested in virtually all things Polish, and look forward to enjoying the entire book upon publication. To know that I had some hand in assisting you with your tome, will be something for me to be proud of for years to come." Chevalier Rik Sulima-Suligowski Fox Guildmaster, The Polish Nobility Commonwealth Guild 1st US Hussaria I found the book chock-full of information and written in a style that was easy to read and understand. The chapter on Poland's Industrial Diversity was an inspired way to illustrate the diversity of Poland'seconomy while avoiding the use of figures and statistics that can be difficult to understand. Meanwhile the sections on Culture and appendix on Notable Poles provide a fascinating glimpse into the lives, customs and achievements of the Polish people. Sandra Molyneaux

Excerpt from The Native's Return: An American Immigrant Visits Yugoslavia and Discovers His Old Country Guggenheim Fellowship requiring me to go to Europe for a year, I was thirty-three and had been 1n the United States nineteen years. At fourteen - a son of peasants, with a touch of formal city education - I had emigrated to the United States from Carniola, then a tiny Slovene province of Austria, now an even tinier part of a banowna in the new Yugoslav state; In those nineteen years.. I had become an American; ih deed, I had often thought I was more American than W'ere most of the native citizens of my acquaintance. I was ceaselessly, almost fanatically, interested 1n the Amer ican scene; in ideas and forces operating in America's national life, in movements, tendencies and personalities, in technical advances, in social, economic, and political problems, and generally in the tremendous drama of the New World.
