How I Found Livingstone Travels, adventures, and discoveres in Central Africa, including an account of four months' residence with Dr. Livingstone, by Henry M. Stanley【電子書籍】[ Henry M. Stanley ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "How I Found Livingstone," Henry M. Stanley chronicles his daring expedition to locate the famous missionary and explorer, Dr. David Livingstone, who had lost contact with the outside world in Africa. Written in a vivid and engaging prose style, the narrative serves as both an adventure tale and a compelling exploration of the complexities of African geography and culture during the 19th century. Stanley's keen observations and detailed accounts of his encounters with native tribes reflect the broader themes of imperialism and exploration that characterized the Victorian era, offering readers a glimpse into the intricacies of the continent at that time. Henry M. Stanley, born in Wales in 1841, became known for his adventurous spirit and relentless pursuit of discovery, which were essential catalysts for this book. His background as a journalist provided him with the skills to document his journey effectively, while his earlier experiences in the American Civil War shaped his resilience and determination. Stanley's desire to uncover the mysteries of Africa, coupled with a personal fascination with Livingstone's mission, drove him to undertake this perilous journey, leading to a pivotal moment in both his life and the history of exploration. This remarkable narrative is a must-read for anyone interested in the era of exploration, imperialism, and adventure. Stanley's vibrant storytelling, combined with the historical significance of his journey, makes "How I Found Livingstone" an essential work that not only informs but also entertains. It illuminates the spirit of exploration while providing a thoughtful reflection on the ethical dimensions of Western encounters with Africa.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Bending Over Backwards A Journey to the End of the World to Cure a Chronic Backache【電子書籍】[ Carlo Pizzati ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In this intrepid and humorous travelogue, Carlo Pizzati embarks on a quest to find a cure for a backache that has tortured him for twenty years. Armed with his notebook and an indomitable spirit of adventure, Carlo travels from a posturologist's office in northern Italy to the rarefied mountain air of Boulder to seek a variety of New Age alternative cures; from a trance-dance venue hidden near the woods of Cinque Terre to an exorcist-shaman's den near Buenos Aires, who photographs demons and auras. Eventually, Carlo fetches up in India, to live and learn from the yogis at the Ashtanga yoga centre in Mysore. In India, as Carlo engages in strenuous yogic discipline, meditates atop hills, he has an explosive insight into his past births which leads to an encounter that will change his life forever. Along the way, our sceptical, suffering but always curious narrator discovers the ways in which spirituality and technology intersect. Wry, witty and wise by turns, this is a book about self-discovery, facing fears and failures, and undertaking an arduous journey with an open mind and heart.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Riding Towards Me A Thousand-Day Journey on a Motorcycle【電子書籍】[ Jay Kannaiyan ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Riding Towards Me is the epic adventure story of Jay Kannaiyan who dropped everything he had in the US to ride his motorcycle back home to India by the longest possible route. The journey took him three years and three months as he rode through Latin America, Europe and Africa, finally reaching New Delhi in 2013. Jay and his motorcycle, sanDRina, encountered mechanical meltdowns, remote Mayan villages, weeks of high altitude desert isolation, Caribbean and Atlantic voyages, humility, friendship, and landscapes that almost destroyed the bike and Jay's spirit. His go-with-the-flow attitude and engineering background deliver a story of global trails and an adventuring insight that brought him fame amongst the off-road motorcycling fraternity before his journey was even complete.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Italy: Friuli Venezia Giulia: Including Trieste, Udine, the Julian Alps and Carnia【電子書籍】[ Dana Facaros ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This new title continues Bradt's coverage of lesser-known but increasingly popular Italian regions and is the only guide available to Friuli Venezia Giulia, a region that forms the major part of the hinterland of Venice (but does not - despite the name - include Venice itself), and which is a convenient and fascinating place to spend time on the beach, in the Alps or relaxing in the country. It is notable also for its wines and distinctive cuisine, which, with touches of neighbouring Austria and Slovenia stirred in, are starting to attract attention around the world.</p> <p>Written by long-time travel authors and Italy specialists Dana Facaros and Michael Pauls, background and practical information are complemented by ten easy-to-follow chapters, covering Trieste, its coast and the Carso, the Friuli coast, Gorizia and the Collio, Udine, Pordenone and Western Friuli, and the mountains: the Friulian Dolomites, Carnia and the Julian Alps. Set in Italy's northeastern corner, Friuli Venezia Giulia is one of the most ethnically and culturally diverse parts of the country - and also one of the least known.</p> <p>With Bradt's Friuli Venezia Giulia, explore this small but varied region in detail, from the Alps of the north to the coastal resorts, unspoiled wetlands and lagoons, and from medieval towns like Cividale del Friuli to the strange desert steppe called the Magredi and the lovely wine region of Il Collio. Discover the regional capital, caffeine-mad Trieste, where there are 67 different ways of ordering a cup of coffee, and Gorizia, one of the biggest battle fronts of World War I, which survives almost intact, with miles of trenches and fortifications open for exploration.</p> <p>Bradt's Friuli Venezia Giulia offers everything you need for a successful trip.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Northumberland (Slow Travel): including Newcastle, Hadrian's Wall and the Coast. Local, characterful guides to Britain's Special Places【電子書籍】[ Gemma Hall ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This new, thoroughly updated second edition of Bradt's best-selling, comprehensive guide to Northumberland including Newcastle, Hadrian's Wall & the Coast remains the reliable source of information for discovering the far northeast of England, an area which is home to Europe's largest area of protected night sky - and England's first Dark Sky Park, a 572-square-mile expanse in Northumberland National Park.</p> <p>Now including over 40 walks along beaches, over hills and through valleys, as well as dedicated chapters on Northumberland National Park, Hadrian's Wall, the coast and Newcastle, among others, Bradt's Northumberland including Newcastle, Hadrian's Wall & the Coast is the ideal companion for a successful visit.</p> <p>Northumberland is well-known for its beaches, castles, wildlife, islands and desolate upland scenery, but despite all the attention and accolades ('most tranquil county', 'darkest night skies in England', 'Best UK County/Region [Silver Award']), Northumberland remains for the most part wonderfully crowd-free. It is the ultimate place in England to get away from it all, where you can walk all afternoon over moorland and not meet anyone, skinny-dip in lakes, or picnic on pristine sands with no one else around. Northumberland is also home to Hadrian's Wall, 'the most important Roman monument in Britain' (English Heritage), while heritage enthusiasts will find a number of world firsts and unique museums such as Tanfield Railway, where you can marvel at 19th-century steam engines in the oldest engine shed in the world.</p> <p>Bradt's Northumberland encourages visitors to slow down and explore the green lanes, footpaths, rivers and cycle trails that link Northumberland's 'Castle Coast' with the heather-topped hills, Roman fortresses and villages of the interior. A guide to Newcastle is found in the chapter on Tyne & Wear. Local knowledge of historic towns, heritage sites, wildlife-watching spots and countryside walks, and words and tips from local heritage experts make this an authoritative guide - and as much an entertaining armchair read as a practical guide, perfect for walkers, birdwatchers, cyclists, families, and those interested in Roman archaeology, industrial heritage and medieval castles.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Blue Skies & Black Olives A survivor's tale of housebuilding and peacock chasing in Greece【電子書籍】[ John Humphrys ]

<p><strong>'A very funny tome' <em>DAILY TELEGRAPH</em></strong></p> <p><strong>'Hilarious' <em>DAILY MAIL</em></strong></p> <p><strong>'A profoundly instructive course in the idiosyncrasies of Greek law, custom and culture ... entertainingly chronicled' <em>SAGA</em></strong></p> <p><strong>* * * * * *</strong></p> <p><strong>From Radio 4 presenter, bestselling author and national treasure John Humphrys, a funny and engaging memoir of building a home in Greece written together with his son Christopher.</strong></p> <p>It was a moment of mad impulse when John Humphrys decided to buy a semi-derelict cottage and a building site on a plot of land overlooking the Aegean. A few minutes gazing out over the most glorious bay he had ever seen was all it took to persuade him. After all, his son Christopher was already raising his family there so he would help build the beautiful villa that would soon rise there. What could possibly go wrong?</p> <p>Everything.</p> <p>John was to spend the next three years regretting his moment of madness.</p> <p>Some of it had its comic side. He learned to cope with a drunken peacock falling out of his favourite tree and even a colony of rats invading his bedroom. Some of the humans proved trickier: the old man demanding payment for olive trees in the middle of John's own land; the neighbour who dragged his lovely old fishing boat onto the beach and set fire to it after a row with his wife. And, of course, the builders. Was the plumber who electrocuted him in the shower vengeful or merely incompetent?</p> <p>John learned a lot about Greece in a short time. He grew to love it and loathe it in almost equal measures, but was never for a moment bored by it. And Christopher learned a bit more about John. Their shared experience revived keen memories for him of growing up with a father for whom patience was never the strongest virtue...</p> <p>Here father and son capture the idyll and the odyssey as paradise is found, lost and regained.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Finding Jerusalem One man's search for the world's next No.1 nation【電子書籍】[ MJ Macfarlane ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Finding Jerusalem by MJ Macfarlane is a light-hearted and humorous travelogue in which author MJ Macfarlane draws from his British working class roots whilst experiencing the nations who are pioneering a better future for their populations. It charts a journey through the remarkable and the absurd whilst also unearthing some of the sinister aspects of would-be alternatives to Western-style liberal democracy.</p> <p>Whether he is conforming to the strict rules for ascending a mountain in China, being arrested as a British spy in Russia, or deciding that Neapolitan driving and Scottish 'crack' each deserve to be given UNESCO World Intangible Heritage status; MJ Macfarlane gently teases out the characteristics of some of the possible contenders for the title of the world’s “next No.1 nation” whilst bemoaning the inability of Great Britain and the United States to play leading roles in pioneering this brave new world.</p> <p>Finding Jerusalem illuminates readers on a journey that starts in the prosperous United Arab Emirates before exploring the extremes of the old and the new in modern-day China and the immovable resolve of Russian values; as well as the highly-ritualised society of Japan and the uniquely-successful city-states of Singapore and Hong Kong; and asks whether the “next No.1 nation” might not be geographical, but an esoteric ‘mind nation’ borne from the West Coast USA and built on the promise of technology to improve humanity?</p> <p>Through adventures that include failing to become aroused by ancient rock drawings, being killed by the kindness of the effusive hospitality of his Japanese hosts and absconding from the custody of security guards in Singapore; and always with an eye on history and the lessons on the past, MJ Macfarlane concludes that human beings currently exist amidst an unprecedented nexus of opportunities to improve the human experience and to create better life outcomes for future generations, but that this can only be shaped for good by the values that Great Britain and the United States have long stood for and defended.</p> <p>Through the medium of travel, MJ Macfarlane encourages readers to escape from the assumptions of everyday reality and to question the conventional wisdom of the status quo to illuminate the inherent flaws in the old systems that have been carried over into the modern world; and concludes by proposing some bold new policy ideas to spread the gift of better life outcomes in his native country of Great Britain.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Making Perfect Takeoffs and Landings in Light Airplanes【電子書籍】[ Ron Fowler ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Many pilots resign themselves to imperfect takeoffs and landings merely because they're unaware that even the pros must work at each of these critical phases of flight. This book shows pilots how to develop total awareness for the situation, the airplane, and the selfーand to convert that awareness into perfect takeoffs and landings.</p> <p>This book will teach new students safe and proper techniques as well as provide tips for refreshing experienced pilots who may not fly on a regular basis.<br /> The detailed yet easy-to-follow steps given here ensure pilots have the knowledge they need to go beyond rote-learned reactions and develop excellent flying skills. Each chapter defines a specific takeoff or landing situation and the set of characteristics unique to it. Author Ron Fowler presents the methodsーand the logic behind the methodsーthat allow the pilot to master techniques key to normal takeoffs and landings, crosswind procedures, short- and soft-field operations, night procedures, tailwheel operations, and more.</p> <p>Originally published as two separate books, this newly-combined edition now brings together comprehensive instruction on going up and coming back down. The author's easy, conversational approach to teaching speaks to all pilots who thrive on the personal challenge of striving for excellence.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Bristol Scout 1264 Rebuilding Granddad's Aircraft【電子書籍】[ David Bremner ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In 1913, Frank Barnwell designed the Bristol Scout, which was the fastest and most manoeuvrable warplane for the first eighteen months of the First World War, and became the prototype single-seat fighter from which all later fighters were derived. As a result Barnwell became one of the seminal figures in the development of aircraft design. In 1916, Flt Sub Lt F. D. H. Bremner RNAS flew Bristol Scouts for No. 2 Wing in the eastern Mediterranean. In 1983, his grandson David discovered three aircraft parts from Scout no. 1264 in his late grandfather's workshop and twenty years later he, together with his friend Theo Willford, researched the possibility of rebuilding her from these three parts. This book interweaves the previously unpublished early life of Barnwell and his brother Harold, the operational and technical history of his creation the Bristol Scout, Bremner's flying career, and the challenges faced by Theo together with David and his brother Rick in recreating 1264 and getting her back in the air. Neither Frank Barnwell nor the Bristol Scout have received the acclaim due to them in the history of military aviation and this lavishly illustrated book attempts to put the record straight.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
