The author of Zen in the Art of Climbing Mountains (Tuttle) is back with the fascinating, at times harrowing account of his expedition to scale the two highest peaks in Australasia, Ngga Pulu and Carstensz Pyramid. On his way up, the author meets the extraordinary and primitive Stone Age Dani people, whose way of life has remained unchanged for thousands of years. This is an exciting, informative and (at times) humorous book, full of intriguing insights and the Zen philosophy the author carries with him to understand and overcome the many dangers he encounters on this incredible journey.
Creatures from another time, volcanic mountains five million years old, Indian tribes surviving from the pre-Inca period, jungles and rainforests: Ecuador has all this and more. Only in its Galapagos Islands did Charles Darwin discover such a variety of extraordinary fauna that on his return to England he wrote his groundbreaking On the Origin of Species. With a philosophical yet humourous approach, Neville Shulman provides an in-depth background to Ecuador and its diverse peoples and tells intriguing stories of spectacular creatures and exotic flora, many not found anywhere else in the world.

From the authors' own experience comes this highly useful guidebook, full of practical advice on how to make it safely to the top of Africa. Have you ever dreamed of climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest point on the continent of Africa? Unlike most of the world's highest mountains, this one can be climbed by the "average person." Carmichael and Stoddard describe the process of planning, preparation, and execution of their Mount Kilimanjaro adventure. The book is intended to be a step-by-step guide for training, making arrangements, gearing up, and preparing for potential medical problems, time differences and language barriers. They offer hiking guidelines, mental strategies, and even photography techniques. Their diary of the six-day climb gives a vivid description of how they made it up the mountain and back down.
