Travel Book Club, 1000. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. h/b 232 pages, condition is very good. East From Tunis: A Record of Travels on the Northern Coast of Africa. Like Herodotus, who travelled on the northern coast of Africa over 2,000 years ago, Mr. Carrington is an excellent observer and a man of insatiable curiosity. This account of a recent journey from Tunis to Egypt takes in many towns, ancient and modern- Carthage, Kairouan, Sousse, Sfax, Gabes, Tripoli, Leptis Magna. Benghazi, Cyrene, Alexandria. In the author's agreeable company. we visit the troglodytes of Matmata and the former palace of Farouk, the home of the Lotus-Eaters and the Lake of Lethe. We learn about Roman mosaics and modern missionaries, about North African medicine, education and cooking, Arab folk tales, war cemeteries, catacombs, plant-life, pottery, carpet-weaving, sponge-fishing, camels and locusts. Fascinating questions are asked and answered-why is the Sahara all sand? Why have so many Roman statues got broken…

Hodder & Stoughton, 1963. Hardcover. Good/Good. h/b 188 pages, condition is good, this is an ex library book with the usual stamps. Margaret King's first visit to Portuguese Timor was intended to be only a short stop on the way to Melville Island, but she liked the place so much and found it so interesting that she not only decided to spend her whole vacation carrying out research there, but returned on a second visit. The first section of the book is devoted to general impressions of the country and people. In the second part Miss King describes in detail all aspects of the Timorean way of life with special attention to music, song and dance, arts and crafts, religion, laws and customs. A fascinating and little known part of the world is beautifully documented by the author's own lavish illustrations.

Description:
UK: Vintage Books, 2013. Soft cover. Very Good. 5 x 0.8 x 7.8 inches. p/b 258 pages, condition is very good. Empire Antarctica is the story of one man and his fascination with the world's loneliest continent, as well as the emperor penguins who weather the winter with him. Combining an evocative narrative with a sublime sensitivity to the natural world, this is travel writing at its very best. Gavin Francis fulfilled a lifetime's ambition when he spent fourteen months as the base-camp doctor at Halley, a profoundly isolated British research station on the Caird Coast of Antarctica. So remote, it is said to be easier to evacuate a casualty from the International Space Station than it is to bring someone out of Halley in winter. Antarctica offered a year of unparalleled silence and solitude, with few distractions and very little human history, but also a rare opportunity to live among emperor penguins, the only species truly at home in the Antarctic. Following the penguins throughout the…

Description:
London, UK: Reprint Society, 1966. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. h/b 230 pages, condition is very good. An account of the Invasion of the South Pacific 1767-1840. When Cook made his landfall in Matavai Bay on April 13, 1769, the population of Tahiti was about forty thousand; by the turn of the century not more than fifteen thousand were left, and by the end of the eighteen-thirties the figure was down to nine thousand. When the first ships carrying convicts sailed into Botany Bay on January 18, 1788, the aborigines were virtually the only human beings on the Australian continent; a century and a half later, they were almost extinct. When Cook discovered the icy coasts of South Georgia, he was amazed to find a wealth of marine and bird life; after fifty years there was virtually nothing left to kill. These three facts form the tragic basis of Alan Moorehead's study of the invasion of the South Pacific between 1767 and 1840. During those years' so-called western civilization came up against…

UK: Dunfermline Burgh Survey: Community Project, 2007. 1st Edition . Soft cover. Very Good/No Jacket. 7.5" x 9.75. p/b 140 pages, plus map, condition is very good. This burgh survey weaves together a highly readable summary of the recorded information on Dunfermline's history and archaeology. Dunfermline was the seat of Malcolm Canmore and here he married Margaret. Several of their sons ware kings of Scotland and with royal patronage the Benedictine Abbey became one of the most important monasteries in Scotland. It was the birth or burial place of many Scottish kings, notably King Robert the Bruce. The medieval burgh flourished by serving the needs of visiting royalty and humbler pilgrims to the shrine of St Margaret. The Reformation and then the departure of the Scottish court to London led to a period of decline. But from the early eighteenth century Dunfermline reinvented itself as a leading centre for high quality linens, initially by hand loom weaving. Then the second half of the…

Thames and Hudson, 1965. Hardcover. Good/Good. h/b 240 pages, condition is good, this is an ex library book with the usual stamps. The conflict between Indonesia and the Federation of Malaysia together with the recent decision by Indonesia to leave the UN are dominant features of the contemporary political scene in Southeast Asia. They will continue to be a source of discussion and speculation until some kind of agreement is reached both within and without Indonesia's borders. But what of history? Are there clues which might provide an answer to the cause of Indonesia's present attitude? Two thousand years ago Indonesia entered recorded history; today her social, political and cultural life is an amalgam of influences from India, the Arab world, China, Portugal, the Netherlands and Japan. Following her achievement of independence in 1944, two years after the Japanese invasion, she has emerged as a nation with a complex internal conflict and yet with a strong desire to preserve her national…
