A story of old-fashioned adventure driven purely by curiosity & a refusal to believe that everything has been done. This is a true story of modern day exploration & the discovery of cannibal tribes in the 21st century. It will appeal to anthropologists as much as it will to adventurers & those with a thirst for excitement & humour. From the very start the team found far more hurdles than those just the jungle could throw at them. In the course of their 150-mile journey by dugout canoe & foot through the largest swamp on Earth they dodged police, encountered politically disgruntled ex head-hunters & were pursued by a previously undiscovered clan of the little known Korowai tribe. This was all before they had begun their arduous journey into the mountainous interior of the island & the previously unclimbed south face of Gunung Mandala, the reason for their expedition. An expedition far more extraordinary than they had ever imagined, one that would stretch them, their friendship & their equipment to the limits. ...

” The First Crusade” is one of the best-known & most written-about events in history but in this new book Dr Peter Frankopan asks vital questions that have never been posed before. This is the only book to address the history of the ” First Crusade” from the perspective of the east, examining the role of the Byzantine Empire & its ruler, Emperor Alexios I Komnenos. Peter Frankopan`s focus on the imperial city of Constantinople & events in Asia Minor is the result of a major reinterpretation of eastern sources which reveal the crucial role of Byzantium in the ” Genesis” & execution of the ” First Crusade”. Frankopan`s revelation of a close cooperation between the pope in Rome & the emperor in Constantinople constitutes an important revision & brand new evidence of the history of the Church. This book questions the traditional view that the Catholic & Orthodox churches had broken definitively in 1054. Rather than viewing the Crusades as a conflict between Christianity & Islam, the book reveals a complex triangular relationship between the west, Byzantium & the Muslim world. So, ” The First Crusade” constitutes a paradigm shift
- it radically re-shapes our understanding of the aims, expectations, & long-term implications of the ” First Crusade” & the Crusades as a whole. Most importantly it answers why was there a ” First Crusade”?

” Some 60, 000 years ago, a small group of people landed on Australia`s northern coast. They were the first oceanic mariners & this great southern land was their new home. Gigantic mammals roamed the plains & enormous crocodiles, giant snakes & goannas nestled in the estuaries & savannahs. First Footprints tells the epic story of Australia`s Aboriginal people. It is a story of ancient life on the driest continent on earth through the greatest environmental changes experienced in human history: ice ages, extreme drought & inundating seas. It is chronicled through astonishing archaeological discoveries, ancient oral histories & the largest & oldest art galleries on earth. Australia`s first inhabitants were the first people to believe in an afterlife, cremate their dead, engrave representations of the human face, & depict human sound & emotion. They created new technologies, designed ornamentation, engaged in trade, & crafted the earliest documents of war. Ultimately they developed a sustainable society based on shared religious tradition & far-reaching social networks across the length & breadth of Australia.” ...
