She wrote of storms, earthquakes, horseback journeys, illness, revolution and death, along with her observations of Brazil and Chile as they reached the point of winning independence from the colonial rule of Portugal and Spain. This journal offers a personal record of her adventures and a survey of historical events of the time. A clean very presentable copy.

Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. "Darwin came up with the theory of evolution, right? Wrong. Evolution, if not in the scientific mainstream, was part of the common intellectual currency of his time. His own grandfather espoused a version of it. What Darwin proposed was the blind, purposeless and godless mechanism by which it worked: natural selection. Quammen pays due attention to Darwin's other scientific achievements: his naturalist's observations from the Beagle voyage, his research on barnacles and worms, and his foray into geology. He also presents an acute but sympathetic portrait of Darwin the man: intellectually proud but publicity-shy, an undemonstrative but loving family man, martyr to a mysterious vomiting ailment. An elegant and readable account of one of the last great Victorian gentleman scientists, this should convince unbelievers - including around 60 per cent of all Americans, according to recent surveys - that Darwin was in all essentials right. Don't hold your breath, though." - Brandon Robshaw.

Dustwrapper lightly edgeworn. Near fine. Postage quoted is for a standard format octavo book. Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. Roden Cutler's list of honours is long and impressive, but it is his sole decoration, the Victoria Cross, that marks him as a hero. Over 800,000 men and women served in the Australian armed forces during the Second World War, but only twenty were awarded the V.C. Colleen McCullough vividly shows us the life and times of the young soldier with the dashing good looks, the laconic humour and dislike of pretension who came back from the war determined to continue to support his mother, but, having lost a leg, with no idea how to do so. Yet by the age of 29 he was the Australian High Commissioner to New Zealand. His diplomatic career was to include stints to Ceylon, Egypt during the Suez crisis of 1956, Pakistan and New York. In 1966 he was appointed Governor of New South Wales; during his 15 years in that office he shared with Captain Arthur Phillip and Lachlan Macquarie, he earned his own niche among them as the "people's governor". Much loved, still remembered as a man equally at home in the company of royalty or trade unionists. His story is embedded in Australian history, and part of it. But it is also the story of a man who pulled himself up by his bootstraps to serve his country with courage and dignity in the face of all obstacles. In an age accustomed to public idols with feet of clay, Roden Cutler is the exception: a man whose integrity is as formidable as his humility is astonishing.

Dustwrapper now professionally protected by superior non-adhesive polypropylene film. Very good to near fine. Postage quoted is for a standard format octavo book. Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. In an ambitious effort that is equal parts history, sensationalized gossip and political expose, London Sunday Times investigative reporters Levy and Scott-Clark trace the winding path of the so-called 'Stone of Heaven.' The story begins in 1735, when jade-obsessed Chinese emperor Qianlong endeavors to extend China's reach into present-day Burma, reputed to contain the world's finest jade. Over time the infatuation with jade also infects French and British colonials, adventurers, Chinese gangsters, Chiang Kai-shek and Mao Zedong, all of whom energetically loot the Imperial Court's treasures. Descriptions and provenances of legendary jade pieces (some of which are lost for centuries at a time) are given at length. Among the history's cast of characters is bad-girl Woolworth heiress Barbara Hutton, who receives a tabloid treatment of her jade collection, marriages, sexual misadventures and profligate spending. But the history, the gossip, even the sensational stories of the depredations of the indigenous tribes who fiercely protected their secret jade mines, pale in comparison to the authors' visit to Burma. Risking their lives, Levy and Scott-Clark pose as gemologists and, with guile, courage and bribery, reach Hpakant, home to the mines. There they find hundreds of thousands of destitute people virtually enslaved amid prostitution, government-sponsored heroin addiction, and 'jade disease, or AIDS.' The story of the quest for jade ends abruptly in a kind of hell, rendered as astutely as the excesses in this intriguing history.
