Book Synopsis A Long Walk in the Australian Bush by : William J. Lines
Download or read book A Long Walk in the Australian Bush written by William J. Lines and published by UNSW Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One wet and blooming spring William J. Lines and an American companion undertook a 400-mile walk of the Bibbulmun trail of southwestern Australia. In this fascinating chronicle of the journey Lines draws on conservationist philosophy and his own observations to explore human interaction -- Aboriginal and white, farming and industrial, private and government -- with the Australian environment. The lessons that arise in the course of the book have universal application. A Long Walk in the Australian Bush reveals at dose range the devastation of the great temperate eucalypt forests while interweaving stories about forestry, mining, science, economics, conservation, and language, converging on the themes of nature, reality, objectivity, and understanding. A century of exploitation by politicians, loggers, and developers is described alongside personal experience and a strong sense of place. Lines contrasts the knowledge, wisdom, myths, and superstitions of the ancients -- including the Greeks and the Nyungar, the original inhabitants of the western Australian forest -- with contemporary human values. Extrapolating from his first-hand observations of ecological damage, he condemns the prevailing policies of extracting the maximum resource from nature, regardless of the cost. These policies are not unique to Australia. In fact, Lines writes, the approach to forestry that prevails in Western Australia has been borrowed from the United States Forest Service. With passion and immediacy, A Long Walk in the Australian Bush draws connections between the history, use, and abuse of Western Australia's forests and the use and abuse of the planet.

Book Synopsis A Long Way Walkin’ in Australia by : Tom Hayllar
Download or read book A Long Way Walkin’ in Australia written by Tom Hayllar and published by BalboaPress. This book was released on 2014-02-11 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tom Hayllar is a teacher, writer, bushwalker, caver, and adventurer. He has climbed inaccessible mountains in New Guinea, explored remote cave systems in New Guinea and the Philippines, walked across isolated Himalayan and Nepalese high country, and trekked lonely stretches of Alaska. In 1975 he was the first person to walk the 11,829 kilometer journey around Australia, and three years later he became the first person to traverse Australia on foot along its widest point from Cape Byron to Steep Point. Tom Hayllar just loves to walk, but the journeys are enriched by the characters, landscapes, and even the hardships experienced along the way. Here is how and why it was a long way walkin in 1985 when he made the diagonal journey walking from Wilsons Promontory by the Tasman to where the Timor Sea laps the cliffs of the Northern Kimberley. This walk, like his other long distance walks in Australia, is authenticated by the Guiness Book of Records.
Book Synopsis The Long Way Round by : John Nesling
Download or read book The Long Way Round written by John Nesling and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australia as post World War 2 English emigrants embarking under an Australian government subsidised plan to populate the country. It a was time when there were jobs for anyone anywhere throughout the length and breadth of Australia, thus making it possible to travel, work and explore during a more innocent time in a land climatically and socially conducive to such idyllic possibilities. The period covered is 16 years, from 1954 to 1970, of which five years are spent in New Zealand. Throughout this time children are born and a young family evolves. Many emigrants simply settled around the major cities for no other apparent reason than that it was where they had disembarked. For some this was traumatic and sometimes tragic. The book attempts – however briefly - to address such themes and the themes of emigrants in general. As the Vietnam War emerges an attempt is made to define Australia’s political choices in relation to her geographical environment. Ostensibly written for family and friends, the story strives towards a wider audience, but is entirely biographical and factual, except where a few forgotten names – very few – have been substituted with others.
Book Synopsis Walks of a Lifetime from Around the World by : Robert Manning
Download or read book Walks of a Lifetime from Around the World written by Robert Manning and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-10-17 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walking is simple, but it can also be profound. In an increasingly complex and frantic world, walking can help simplify and focus our lives, is an elegantly sustainable form of recreation, deepens our understanding and appreciation of the world’s great cultural landscapes, stimulates our thinking, and makes us healthier and happier in the process. In Walks of a Lifetime from Around the World, Bob and Martha Manning invite readers to join the walking community. Their book explains why, how, and where to walk, with an emphasis on multi-day, long-distance trails — walking vacations of a few days to a few weeks. The heart of the book is a series of first-hand descriptions of forty of the world’s great multi-day walks, spanning six continents, most U.S. states and Washington, DC, and ranging from inn-to-inn walks to backpacking treks. Many of these walks are among the world’s most iconic. Trail descriptions are richly illustrated with color photographs and maps.
Book Synopsis Walking with the ANZACS by : Mat McLachlan
Download or read book Walking with the ANZACS written by Mat McLachlan and published by Hachette Australia. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: '[Mat McLachlan's] knowledge of the front is comprehensive' - Sydney Morning Herald A complete guide to the Australian battlefields of the Western Front 1916-18. Walking with the ANZACs aims to become the new essential companion for Australians visiting the Western Front. Each of the 14 most important Australian battlefields is covered with descriptions of the battles and Australia’s involvement in it. The book presents a well-illustrated walking tour across the old battlefields. The tours are designed along easily accessible walking routes and show readers battlefield landmarks that still exist, memorials to the men who fought there and the cemeteries where many of them still lie. In this way the visitor will see the battlefield in much the same way as the original ANZACs did, and gain a greater appreciation of the site’s significance. Importantly, the tours are not written for military experts, but for ordinary visitors whose military knowledge may be limited. More than just a handy travel guide, Walking with the ANZACs is an absorbing read for armchair travellers and students of the First World War who may not have had the opportunity to visit the battle fields and walk in the footsteps of the first ANZACs.

Book Synopsis Phraseology and Culture in English by : Paul Skandera
Download or read book Phraseology and Culture in English written by Paul Skandera and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2008-08-22 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proposition that there is a correlation between language and culture or culture-specific ways of thinking can be traced back to the views of Herder and von Humboldt in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It is generally accepted today that a language, especially its lexicon, influences its speakers' cultural patterns of thought and perception in various ways, for example through a culture-specific segmentation of the extralinguistic reality, the frequency of occurrence of particular lexical items, or the existence of keywords or key word combinations revealing core cultural values. The aim of this volume is to explore the cultural dimension of a wide range of preconstructed or semi-preconstructed word combinations in English. The 17 papers of the volume are divided into four sections, focusing on particular lexemes (e.g. enjoy and its collocates), types of word combinations (e.g. proverbs and similes), use-related varieties (such as the language of tourism or answering-machine messages), and user-related varieties (such as Aboriginal English or African English). The sections are preceded by a prologue, tracing the development of the study of formulaic language, and followed by an epilogue, which draws together the threads laid out in the various papers. The relation between language and culture in general has been explored in a number of important works over the past ten years. However, the study of the relation between English phraseology and culture in particular has been largely neglected. This volume is the first book-length publication devoted entirely to this topic.
