A witty, entertaining & utterly unique look at the great explorers & the life-lessons we can draw from them. Exploration & explorers hold a constant fascination, with tales of heroism & the overcoming of great odds in the most inhospitable environments. The excitement over books on Shackleton & the abiding success of series such as Michael Palin's ' Pole to Pole', ? Around the World in 80 days' & ? Himalaya? demonstrate this amply. Add to this already compelling formula a touch of inspiration, in the lessons we can learn from the explorers in our everyday life & a spice of ' How to do Just about everything' in the bizarre & quirky lessons Mick Conefrey teaches us, such as how to cook an albatross or play football on an ice floe & the combination is unbeatable. The book takes as its structure the stages of a typical expedition from planning to setting out, finding your goal & surviving safely to get home. Packed with fascinating anecdotes about explorers such as Shackleton, Scott, Livingstone & Stanley, the book also teaches us instructive lessons about fund-raising, team-building, dealing with confrontations, whilst also dealing with less everyday problems, such as digging a latrine in permafrost or facing down a charging polar bear. With its combination of the serious & the bizarre, the inspirational & the hilarious, Teacup in a Storm will be an engagingly irresistible proposition. ' Teacup in a Storm' is a unique book. Witty, irreverent, debunking, entertaining & inspirational all in one competitively priced & handy format package. ...
