Tania Aebi was an unambitious eighteen-year-old, a bicycle
messenger in New York City by day, a Lower East Side barfly at
night. In short, she was going nowhere--until her father offered
her a challenge: Tania could choose either a college education or a
twenty-six-foot sloop. The only catch was that if she chose the
sailboat, she'd have to sail around the world--alone. She chose the
boat, and for the next two and a half years and 27,000 miles, it
was her home. With only her cat as companion, she discovered the
wondrous beauties of the Great Barrier Reef and the death-dealing
horrors of the Red Sea. She suffered through a terrifying collision
with a tanker in the Mediterranean and a lightning storm off the
coast of Gibraltar. And, ultimately, what began with the sheer
desire for adventure turned into a spiritual quest as Tania came to
terms with her troubled family life, fell in love for the first
time, and--most of all--confronted her own needs, desires, dreams,
and goals. . . .
This guide describes ascents of 25 Lake District fells that can be
climbed from Langdale and the Vale of Grasmere. Easily accessible
from the popular bases of Grasmere and Ambleside, this area offers
stunning scenery and fantastic walking, from the 'small but
perfectly made' Loughrigg - ideal for a Sunday afternoon hike - to
eye-catching Helm Crag ('the Lion and the Lamb'), from the lofty
heights of Bowfell to the iconic Langdale Pikes. England's highest
mountain, Scafell Pike, is also included in this volume. Unlike
other guidebooks which describe a single or limited number of
routes to a particular destination, the aim of the Walking the Lake
District Fells series is to offer all the options. These are
presented as numbered sections which can be combined to create
infinite possibilities - from simple ascents to longer ridge
routes. You'll find the classics and popular routes alongside less
traditional alternatives perfect for the wandering spirit. The
series gives you both the freedom to devise your own routes and the
information to make informed decisions, thanks to the clear
descriptions of the routes, terrain, hazards, interesting features
and safe descent paths should the weather close in. Also included
are a handful of classic ridge routes for longer fell days. Mark
Richards' inimitable text is complemented by HARVEY mapping and the
author's own beautiful sketch topos and panoramas. Perfect for keen
hillwalkers and peak-baggers alike and ideal both for pre-planning
and use on the hill, Walking the Lake District Fells is the new
incarnation of the Fellranger series, which sees the volumes
updated and trimmed to a more practical size. These true
connoisseurs' guides are sure to inspire you to get out and explore
the beautiful fells of Lakeland.

just got a whole lot better. Now in its 10th edition including the
new Palheiro golf development, goodbye to the abandoned Ponta Pargo
golf course, final sections of the VE3 road, loads of minor road
updating especially in the south west. For hikers we have added
several new highlighted walking routes. Madeira Tour & Trail
Map is a large 960mm by 700mm double sided map sheet. Super-Durable
edition comes with a 2 year adventurous use guarantee. Specialist
concertina map folding means the 960mm by 700mm double sided map
folds quickly to its 235mm by 120mm pocket size. This most detailed
map of Madeira includes our 'Tour & Trail' level of detail
ranging from major roads to secondary roads to minor roads to
streets and camino rural narrow country roads, plus dirt roads and
walking trails. Altitude background colouring is designed to
clearly show the altitude range when travelling across the island
by car or on foot. 100 metre and 50 metre contours are clearly
shown on the map along with a large number of individual height
points and all of the official 'Trig' points. Tour & Trail
attention to detail is legendary as is our useful symbol range
including miradors, picnic areas, petrol stations, bar/restaurants
and parking areas where you can pull off the road safely. You will
easily identify springs, caves, sports grounds, cemetries, churchs,
chapels, lighthouses, towers and forts, camping areas, wind
turbines, hotels etc. For adventurers on foot Tour & Trail Maps
are researched and designed by hikers for use by hikers. Our
comprehensive gps ground surveys produce the best mapping available
but the value of this on the ground research becomes even more
important when you leave the tarmac. All of our DWG walking routes
are accurately gps surveyed giving you confidence in the accuracy
of our Tour & Trail Maps. Madeira Tour & Trail Map includes
all the walking routes from 'Madeira Walks' volumes 1 & 2 by
Shirley Whitehead highlighted in Red while other published walking
routes (printed guide books and reliable web publications) are
highlighted in Green. It all adds up to the most useful map of
Madeira that you can buy anywhere. In use maps have a very tough
life so you will appreciate our specialist concertina map fold that
allows you to quickly open the map, and more importantly fold it
back up to its pocket size after use. Paper maps will always suffer
from the repeated unfolding, folding to the section you want to
use, and then refolding. We recommend everybody to obtain our
Super-Durable editions printed with 100% oxygenation inks on
Polyart by the UK's leading map printer, which produces a map that
feels like silk but will stand up to the roughest treatment of
outdoor adventuring and yet fold up like new at the end of your
adventure. Tour & Trail Super-Durable Maps are more expensive
than paper maps, but represent better value as they produce a
lightweight map that feels like silk while being both water-proof
and incredibly tough so that after even the toughest of adventures
your Tour & Trail Super-Durable Map will fold up like new.
Digital editions of Madeira Tour & Trail Map for phone apps and
Garmin users are available on the dwgwalking website.

Celebrating a "golden age" of travel, this book retraces the steps
of a Grand Tour of South East Asia from the turn of the 20th
century to the present day. The Romance of the Grand Tour explores
the living heritage of 12 exotic port cities: from Rangoon
(Yangon), through the Straits Settlements of Penang, Malacca and
Singapore and the old Dutch East Indies cities of Batavia (Jakarta)
and Surabaya, via Bangkok to former Indochina at Saigon (Ho Chi
Minh City), Phnom Penh and Hanoi, through Manila to Hong Kong.
Drawing on archival images and accounts as well as present-day
photographs and illustrations, the book captures the romance and
excitement of these early Grand Tourists, while presenting
contemporary scenes and experiences for 21st-century travellers
determined to seek out the legacy of a bygone era.
In Historic Columbus Crimes, the father-daughter team of David
Meyers and Elise Meyers Walker looks back at sixteen tales of
murder, mystery and mayhem culled from city history. Take the rock
star slain by a troubled fan or the drag queen slashed to death by
a would-be ninja. Then there's the writer who died acting out the
plot of his next book, the minister's wife incinerated in the
parsonage furnace and a couple of serial killers who outdid the Son
of Sam. Not to mention a gunfight at Broad and High, grave-robbing
medical students, the bloodiest day in FBI history and other
fascinating stories of crime and tragedy. They're all here, and
they're all true
This guidebook contains over 60 walks which explore the best of the
Julian Alps of Slovenia. The walks and treks in this guidebook are
organised around five bases in the Julian Alps - Kranjska Gora,
Bovec, Kobarid, Bled and Bohinj - all of which have a range of
accommodation and public transport facilities. There is something
here for everyone - from easy valley walks and rougher forest
trails to high-mountain protected routes, including multiple routes
up Triglav, Slovenia's highest peak. Several possibilities for
multi-day walks are included. The Julian Alps are situated in the
small independent republic of Slovenia, at the south-eastern end of
the Alpine chain. Their highest peak, Triglav, at 2864m, may be
smaller than some of the better-known western giants, but what the
mountains lack in stature they make up for in interest and
accessibility. The dramatic limestone peaks drop steeply through
forests to flower meadows, and will give you a feast for the eyes
no matter which direction you turn.
