Download or read book Namibia written by Chris McIntyre and published by Bradt Travel Guides. This book was released on 2019-08-05 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new thoroughly updated edition of Bradt's Namibia remains the essential guide for a successful visit to this vast country - more than twice the size of Germany but with less than 3% of the population. Written by expert author and long-standing tour specialist Chris McIntyre, this sixth edition incorporates all the most recent changes, including unrivalled coverage of places to stay and eat, from small, personal guesthouses to classy hotels and upmarket game lodges, and detailed information for self-drivers (including personally researched and checked GPS coordinates) as well as for fly-in and guided safaris. There's also in-depth coverage of wildlife and where to see it, including a new full-colour wildlife field guide section, covering mammals, reptiles and amphibians, marine life and birds. Two background chapters covering everything from history and politics to people, ethnic groups and culture are complemented by two chapters on planning, preparation, health and safety and two on the practicalities of getting around and camping and walking in the bush (including canoeing). Helping you to discover Namibia in detail, 13 chapters offer a regional breakdown, from the capital, Windhoek to the Southern Kalahari, Namib desert, Swakopmund, Skeleton Coast, Etosha National Park, and the Kavango and Zambezi regions in the extreme northeast, including excursions into neighbouring Botswana. With sweeping landscapes and empty roads, Namibia has long captured the imaginations of travellers and photographers. Its immense emptiness offers majestic sand dunes, seemingly endless gravel plains, vast tracts of farmland and rugged mountains hiding galleries of ancient Bushman rock art. Add to this the wildlife and the unexpected beauty of the rivers that define the country's northern and southern boundaries, and it's easy to see why Namibia attracts lovers of the great outdoors.

Book excerpt: In April 2014, the very first travel book about Oranjemund, the secret town in the Sperrgebiet, was published in a print edition. Since founding of a worker’s camp in 1928, visitors could only travel to Oranjemund with a special permit. In 2011, it was proclaimed as a Namibian town, and the 80 km gravel road through the Sperrgebiet will be tarred soon. Visitors from all over the world will travel Oranjemund in the near future and use the travel book as a broad information, including a town map, a list of restaurants and places of interest. „Oranjemund – A Journey through history and past“ is an unique travel book about the history of the diamond funds, the life of people in the old times as well as the development of Oranjemund into a modern and open town. A broad part of the book shows rare artifacts of the historic diamond era in the Oranjemund Museum. Unique documents like shopping lists from Kolmanskuppe and the very first maps of the Sperrgebiet enlighten the live of the people in old times. Namdeb provides an overview about the development into modern times, while the first elected Mayor of Oranjemund, Hon. Henry Coetzee, composed an official “Message from the Mayor” for the unique travel book. Additionally, exciting and funny stories about old and modern times make this book fascinating for readers from all over the world that’s why its no available as ebook for the first time. Author Konny von Schmettau is a journalist and tour guide („Made in Germany“) who lives in Swakopmund. She publishes travel books under the title „Auf Pad mit Konny“ (On the road with Konny) as well as historical books, like „120 Years Swakopmund -The Official Yearbook“ (together with Peter Brüggemann). Her aim is, not only to educate, but also to entertain her readers. Amongst historical backgrounds, factual information and tips for travelers, lots of fascinating and amusing stories make her books unique.

Download or read book Crustal Evolution of Southern Africa written by A. J. Tankard and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Syntheses of the geology of major areas of the Earth's crust are increasingly needed in order that the features of, and the problems associated with, the secular evolution of the continents can be understood by a wide audience. Southern Africa is fortunate in having a remarkable variety of geological environments developed without many breaks over 3. 8 Ga, and many of the rock groups are household names throughout the geological world. In one respect the geology of Southern Africa is particularly important: cratonization clearly began as early as 3. 0 Ga ago, in contrast to about 2. 5 Ga in most other continental areas such as North America. This book documents very well the remarkable change in tectonic conditions that took place between the Early and Mid-Precambrian; we have here evidence of the very earliest development of rigid lithospheric plates. This book is a tribute to the multitudes of scientists who have worked out the geology of Southern Africa over many years and decades. Whatever their discipline, each provided a step in the construction of this fascinating story of 3. 8 Ga of crustal development. In the book the reader will find a detailed review of the factual data, together with a balanced account of interpretative models without the indulgence of undue speculation. One of its attractions is its multidisciplinary approach which provides a stimulating challenge to the reader.

Download or read book Diamond Warriors in Colonial Namibia written by Job Shipululo Amupanda and published by BASLER AFRIKA BIBLIOGRAPHIEN. This book was released on 2022-07-06 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diamond Warriors in Colonial Namibia enters into unchartered scholarly territory of illegal diamond smuggling at the largest diamond mining company in colonial Namibia—De Beers’ Consolidated Diamond Mines of South West Africa (CDM). It details the underground activities of the natives (migrant workers) employed by the CDM and how these illicit activities accounted for rapid development in Owamboland. Beyond this account, the book takes on the deterministic ‘natural resource curse’ theory that equates natural resource endowments to a curse resulting in underdevelopment and sometimes conflict. It is argued and proven herein, from a decolonial standpoint, that such an approach is an oversimplification of the political economy of natural resources in Africa in general and Namibia in particular. The text also provides a contextual account of the contract labour system and details the symbiotic relationship between CDM and the colonial state before highlighting the remaining unanswered questions and areas of further research
