Ultimate Train Journeys: World profiles 30 great train trips from
every inhabited continent, selected by long-time rail fan and
travel writer Tim Richards. Environmental concerns are prompting
travellers to consider the surface route - and the best means of
transport at ground level is undoubtedly rail. Tim's curated
selection covers the full range of rail options, from the humble
commuter train to long-distance night trains with sleeper berths
and dining cars, and all journeys are blessed with great scenery.
There's the Coast Starlight (Los Angeles to Seattle), the
Darjeeling Himalayan Railway (New Jalpaiguri and Darjeeling) and
The Orient Express (London via Paris to Venice), just to name a
few. Each chapter includes a detailed itinerary, fast facts, photos
and maps. With space to move and no road traffic to get snarled up
in, the real drawcard of train adventures is that they are immersed
within a shifting environment, yet not entirely of it. You can
witness your surrounds at a steady pace, and properly get to know
your travel companions. The old-school ways of travel are fast
becoming new again.

Jazz Piano"" series' and other books [Schott Music]. ""These are
routines I believe are beneficial to anyone who understands the
basics of jazz harmony and improvisation. I hope they throw a new
slant on familiar chord sequences, or suggest new directions in
your playing."" Tim has been a presence on the international jazz
scene since the early 80s and has over a dozen albums out as a
leader, featuring line-ups from duo to nine-piece. The tips and
exercises in this book will help strengthen the connection between
