Book SynopsisCharles Darwin's account of the momentous voyage which set in motion the current of intellectual events leading to The Origin of Species  When HMS Beagle sailed out of Devonport on 27 December 1831, Charles Darwin was twenty-two and setting off on the voyage of a lifetime. His journal, here reprinted in a shortened form, shows a naturalist making patient observations concerning geology, natural history, people, places and events. Volcanoes in the Galapagos, the Gossamer spider of Patagonia and the Australasian coral reefs - all are to be found in these extraordinary writings. The insights made here were to set in motion the intellectual currents that led to the theory of evolution, and the most controversial book of the Victorian age: The Origin of Species. This volume reprints Charles Darwin's journal in a shortened form. In their introduction Janet Brown and Michael Neve provide a background to Darwin's thought and work, and this edition also includes notTable of ContentsVoyage of the Beagle - Charles Darwin List of maps and illustrationsAcknowledgmentsChronologyIntroductionA note on this editionCharles Darwin's Journal of ResearchesAuthor's prefaceAppendix One: Admiralty instructions for the Beagle voyageAppendix Two: Robert FitzRoy's "Remarks with reference to the Deluge"Biographical guide

Book SynopsisManchester is far more than a grey provincial city preoccupied with the business of making money. The bales of cotton goods awaiting export have gone from the grand warehouses styled like palaces, and the cotton mills no longer hum with the sound of machinery. Yet the buildings remain in all their glory of tiles, terracotta and stained glass - converted to hotels, offices, chic apartments, hipster bars, fine eateries or gritty drinking dens. The textile trade may have disappeared, but you can find sustainable fashion in the old rag-trade district, and top quality coats and jackets are still being hand-sewn in the last remaining family-owned clothing factory. This book will also take you to alternative Manchester - Radical Manchester from Peterloo to the Pankhursts, Literary Manchester from Elizabeth Gaskell to Anthony Burgess, and of course to Madchester, the crazy music scene of Morrissey, Tony Wilson, the Hacienda and Factory Records.

Book SynopsisThe largest, most luxurious ship in the world, wrecked on her maiden voyage after colliding with an iceberg mid-Atlantic, has become the stuff of legends. While everyone knows the new White Star liner was glamorous, full of millionaires when she sank, few appreciate just how luxurious she was. Even in Third Class, the accommodation was better than on First Class on many older ships. For the first time, Bruce Beveridge, Steve Hall, Scott Andrews and Daniel Klistorner look at the construction and exterior of the ship itself, and at her interior design and fittings. From cobalt blue Spode china and Elkington plate silverware in the à la carte restaurant to the design of the boilers and fixtures and fittings on board the world's most luxurious vessel, they tell the story of a liner built at the peak of the race between the British, French and Germans to build bigger and better ships.

Book SynopsisGastronomy is a wonderful starting point to study France and the French. As the retired schoolmaster from Provence says ''The religion of France is food. And wine, of course.'' And they put their money where their mouth is, spending a greater proportion of their income on food and drink than any other nation in the world. Literally hundreds of gastronomic fairs and festivals take place throughout the year all over France - a frog fair, an hommage to the sausage, to the turnip, to the quiche and the noble Camembert. What kind of person is a snail-fancier? Is there a brotherhood of sausage connoisseurs? How can you devote an entire weekend to the French fry? Peter Mayle finds out and brings hilariously and affectionately to life the people who can get passionate about a frog''s leg or a well-turned omelette. Over ten years ago he transformed our feelings about Provence, now he captures the irresistible essence of France herself - and her food.Trade ReviewPeter Mayle's idyllic portrait makes you almost taste the wonderful food and wine, feel the sun and balmy breezes * SUNDAY EXPRESS *Delightfully readable. The style is high comedy and Mayle is bitingly funny about local rural mores. But the jokeyness only partly obscures Mayle's warm enthusiasm for local life and landscape. * SUNDAY TIMES *A gastronomic delight. * SUNDAY TRIBUNE *

Book SynopsisThe second edition of this classic guidebook by Kev Reynolds on walking and trekking in the Alps. This book is a definitive guide to the many thousands of possible routes, with a geographical span that ranges from the Maritime Alps of southern France to the Julians of Slovenia, from Italy's Gran Paradiso to the little-known Türnitzer Alps of eastern Austria, and from the ice-bound giants of the Bernese Oberland to the green rolling Kitzbüheler Alps and the bizarre towers of the Dolomites of South Tirol, showing the amazing diversity of this wonderful mountain chain. There are walks to suit every taste: gentle and undemanding, long and tough, and everything in between. Written by Britain's most respected authority on the Alps, this is a fully updated edition of this important book.Trade Review'The most comprehensive book about alpine walking in the last fifty years.'(Chris Bonington)'This is a book that needed writing, and who better to write it than that doyen of guidebook authors - Kev Reynolds. It is a hefty volume that makes no pretence of being a pocket or even a rucksack guidebook, it's a full scale Alpine bible weighing no less than two and a quarter pounds. It's a book for the long winter evenings, not to dream over but to conspire with, to plot with and to use.'(John Cleare, High)'According to my calculations, if I wanted to do everything listed in this marvellous book I would need to live to just over 400 years and remain fit to the end.'(Ernst Sondheimer, The Alpine Journal)'In his own poetic and inimitable style, [Kev Reynolds] has produced a book that condenses the vast wonderland that is the Alps, from the Mediterranean coast near Nice to the wooded hills of Vienna, into 480 pages of densely, yet eminently readable, information. ... This then, is probably the most important guide to walking abroad that has been published in Britain. It is simply stunning, and should be on the shelves of every walker, scrambler and backpacker who harbours any inclination to travel south to these, one of the finest ranges of mountains in the world.'(Cameron McNeish, TGO)'Illustrated with excellent colour photographs and sketch maps, it's definitely a book for the enthusiast.'(Walking Abroad)'Kev Reynolds' style of writing combines graphic visual descriptions with a real feeling of his love for the mountains - there is nothing dry or understated in his prose. The second feature which I found most attractive, is [the] use of quotations from earlier writers, such as Tuckett, Freshfield, Whymper, Leslie Stephen and many others. He goes further and provides reading lists at the end of each chapter and this, for me, adds perspective and a sense of the inheritance of a wonderful recreation from those who have trodden these incomparable mountains in the past.'(Ewen Moir, Austrian Alpine Club Newsletter)'Perhaps you are thinking of your first walking trip to the Alps; but where? How do you decide? Well you can't do better than start with this comprehensive guide to the whole Alpine chain. It is a soft cover update of the original 1998 hardback, which was recognised immediately as the most complete description of the Alps and the walking it offered.Kev Reynolds is a long established writer in the field with a string of guides to individual areas. It is hard to think of anyone to better his extensive knowledge of the Alpine world and clear writing style. I think even old Alpine buffs will discover a corner they were unaware of.'(Scottish Mountaineer Magazine / August 2006)'A big book in every sense, Reynolds' classic was originally published in 1998 and has been republished in soft cover, with improved mapping and a lot more colour photographs. Its format is simple but highly effective.There is little route description - books that offer that are referred to at the end of each chapter - but there is much loving details of what makes each sub-range and its region unique. The suggested tours are well-thought out, with plenty of scope for personal variations.'(Walking World Ireland / July - August 2007)Table of Contents1: THE MARITIME ALPS Hut to Hut in the Alpes Maritime Summary 2: DAUPHINÉ Queyras Tour du Queyras Massif des Écrins Tour de l'Oisans Vercors Summary 3: THE GRAIAN ALPS The Western Graians Tour du Mont Pourri Tour des Glaciers de la Vanoise Tour of the Vanoise The Eastern Graians Grande Traversata del Gran Paradiso Alta Via della Valle d'Aosta No 2 A Traverse of the Graian Alps Summary 4: THE MONT BLANC RANGE Tour du Mont Blanc Chablais, Faucigny & Dents du Midi Summary 5: THE PENNINE ALPS Tour des Combin The Walker's Haute Route The Eastward Traverse of the Italian Valleys Summary 6: THE BERNESE ALPS The Northern Valleys Multi-day Circuit of the Lütschental and Lauterbrunnental Tour Wildstrubel The Southern Flank Bernese Alps Glacier Tour Oberland Passes Summary 7: THE CENTRAL SWISS ALPS The Eastern Bernese Alps Tour of the Göschenertal The Western Uri Alps Uri-Rotstock Circuit The Eastern Uri Alps & Glarner Alps A Tour of the Hürital & Bisistal Summary 8: THE LEPONTINE ALPS A Tour of Ticino Summary 9: THE BERNINA ALPS The Bregaglia Alps The Bregaglia Circuit Sentiero Roma The Bernina Massif The Engadine Valley Summary 10: ADAMELLO-PRESANELLA-BRENTA Adamello-Presanella An Adamello Circuit The Brenta Dolomites A Tour of the Central Brenta Vie Ferratae Summary 11: THE ORTLER ALPS A Tour of the Ortler Alps Summary 12: THE SILVRETTA ALPS The Verwall Group The Rätikon Alps Rätikon Höhenweg Nord The Silvretta Alps Tour of the Southern Silvretta The Silvretta Traverse Summary 13: THE ÖTZTAL ALPS Across the Central Ötztal Alps Hut to Hut in the Ventertal Gurglertal-Ventertal Hut Tour Two-Day Cross-Border Tour Across the Alpi Venoste Summary 14: THE STUBAI ALPS The Stubai High Route Summary 15: THE ZILLERTAL ALPS Zillertal Hut Tour Summary 16: THE EASTERN AUSTRIAN ALPS The Hohe Tauern The Venediger Höhenweg A Tour of the Glockner & Schober Groups The Niedere Tauern Hut to Hut in the Schladminger Tauern The Gailtal & Carnic Alps Summary 17: THE NORTHERN LIMESTONE ALPS Allgäuer Alps Lechtal Alps A Lechtal High Route Wettersteingebirge & Mieminger Kette Karwendelgebirge Hut to Hut Across the Karwendelgebirge Rofangebirge (Brandenberger Alps) Kaisergebirge Berchtesgadener Alps Tennengebirge Dachsteingebirge Tour of the Gosaukamm A Dachstein Circuit Totes Gebirge Summary 18: THE DOLOMITES Sassolungo & Puez-Odle Groups Catinaccio & Latemar Sella Group Marmolada Group Pale di San Martino Civetta & Pelmo Sorapis & Marmarole Monte Cristallo Dolomiti di Sesto High Level Routes Alta Via 1 Alta Via 2 Alta Via 4 Summary 19: THE JULIAN ALPS The Julian Alps of Slovenia The Julian Alps of Italy Summary

And hello to a new kind of freedom.With over 80 fabulously tasty recipes you can cook on just two rings and a few barbeque feasts and camp fire crackers, this is the dashboard bible for anyone who ever dreamed of hitting the road at the wheel of a classic VW camper.From finding and cooking your own food to passing muster with the surfing set, THE CAMPER VAN COOKBOOK will show you how to make the most of every single moment on the road.Trade ReviewTurn your road trip into a culinary experience. Quite simply, this book is destined to reach camper van bible status... Ideal for families, singlies, foodies, festival-goers and outdoor lovers - you'd have to have a screw loose not to love this book. * adventure-cornwall.co.uk *His charmingly eccentric account of life on the road, one delicious recipe at a time, is set to become a modern outdoor classic... it occurs to me that Martin, who pulses with energy and Boy's Own enthusiasm, was made for television. Perhaps he could be sponsored by the British Tourist Authority, as he leads viewers down highways and byways to soak up the scenic beauty - while feasting on breakfast frittata with bacon. Many of the recipes would work just as well for a 'tented' camping holiday but the vintage wheels lend the whole occasion a certain grooviness. * YOU Magazine Mail on Sunday *This is not just a recipe book but a hugely practical, funny, inspiring introduction to camper van living. A cult book in the making, if I'm not mistaken. * Fiona Beckett www.foodandwinefinds.blogspot.com *Cook up a storm with a delicious outdoor on-the-go lunches and suppers. All you need is one pan, a cooker ring and a selection of seasonal ingredients * Country Homes & Interiors *'This inspirational handbook tells you how to cope during a weekend spent on four wheels with nothing but a fire and a two ring stove to cook' * Telegraph Magazine *'This is not just a cookbook, it's a bible for camping' * allaboutyou.com *
