The reputed home of the Queen of Sheba, Yemen has been at the crossroads of Africa, the Middle East & Asia for thousands of years thanks to its position on the ancient spice routes. Ten thousand years of trade along Yemen`s Red Sea & Indian Ocean coasts, over its mountains & across its deserts made it a meeting point of people, ideas, money & goods & the centuries of trading generated much wealth. There has been a British presence in Yemen ever since the early 1600s when the East India Company set up trading posts in Mukha (Mocha in the west), a port then famous as the world centre for trade in coffee. In 1839 the port city of Aden was captured to provide a base to protect British trade routes. This began an even stronger relationship which would last some 130 years until 1967 when the Britain finally pulled out, having granted independence after several years of insurgency against British rule including riots & attacks on its troops. But Britain`s links do not end there. Yemen is the mother country of the longest-established of Britain`s Muslim communities. Yemenis came to Britain from the 1890s onwards, many as an indirect result of having joined the British Merchant Navy, & after World War Two there was further emigration. By the mid-1970s there were some 15, 000 Yemenis in Britain, though today this figure has shrunk back considerably. One of the poorest countries in the region, Yemen still maintains much of its tribal character & old ways. People wear traditional dress & the custom of chewing the narcotic plant khat in the afternoons is still widely observed. Yemen remains a country of great mystery & in recent years it has attracted the curiosity of a growing number of the more adventurous tourists. ...

This first volume of Coarse Angling in Northern France with Phil Pembroke covers 176 excellent angling locations including Paris. Vendee, Aube. Yonne, Marne, Somme, Loire, Cher & Indre. If angling is your thing, then the numerous possibilities listed here will have you spoilt for choice when you’re planning your weekend break across the Channel. With a French angling licence being all that’s needed to fish in public rivers & lakes, Phil Pembroke takes you through all your initial bases. From the River Somme, to the beautiful Loire Valley, to the historic chateaux a mere hours drive south west of Paris…this volume is aimed at visitors from the UK who will appreciate the list of smaller scale, privately-managed carp fisheries providing all-inclusive angling holiday packages. Containing numerous black-&-white sketched maps, this volume has a particular focus on the area to the south & east of Paris, thought to contain some of the best carp fishing sites in France – notably the large reservoirs of the River Seine basin, less than four hours drive from Calais. For those with restricted mobility, the book directs users towards appropriate facilities that include pontoon-fishing platforms with easy car access, highlighting their location in each chapter. Fishing schools are also listed in detail for most areas, as well as night fishing zones for the increasing numbers of visitors who wish to avail themselves of angling opportunities outside of traditional hours. Finally, this book might save your life: given the increased dangers of electrocution resulting from longer & lighter fishing poles, this guide highlights the importance of caution whenever visitors see the EDF danger signs warning of the proximity of overhead power lines. ...
