＜p＞This thoroughly updated second edition of Bradt’s Northern Greece guidebook, written by Greece expert and long-time travel writer Dana Facaros, remains the only guide available to a region that includes ?pirus, Thessaly, Macedonia and Thrace ? complete with their five dramatically beautiful national parks, the country’s highest peaks, mountain lakes, rushing rivers, the world’s deepest gorge and (this is Greece, after all) long sandy beaches.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Northern Greece is an up-and-coming, year-round destination that provides the more natural, authentic experience that many travellers seek from this increasingly popular country. Thessalon?ki, the country’s vibrant second city, is packed with ancient and Byzantine monuments. Three-pronged Chalkidik? has two peninsulas lined with hedonistic beaches and resorts, while the third comprises silent, holy Mount Athos. Central Macedonia is Alexander the Great country, offering ample archaeological sites, Mount Olympus and Greece’s top vineyards. The handsome port city of Kav?la lies near the beach-fringed island of Th?ssos and ancient Philippi, visited by St Paul.＜/p＞ ＜p＞To the east, multi-ethnic Thrace has traditional towns, spectacular birdwatching and the island of ancient mysteries, Samothr?ki. Western Macedonia, meanwhile, is full of surprises: charming small cities nobody has heard of, such as ?dessa, V?ria, Kastori? and Fl?rina, which neighbours the haunting Prespa lakes. Further west, northern ?pirus is home to the breathtaking V?kos Gorge and the Zagorach?ria’s enchanting stone villages. Beaches dot the coast, if you can drag yourself away from ancient Roman Nikopolis, Dodona or the Necromanteion, where the living consulted the dead. Fringing Thessaly’s great agricultural plain are Met?ora’s pinnacle-topped monasteries and beautiful Lake Plast?ra. In Magnes?a, V?los provides the gateway to the P?lion Peninsula and the islands of Ski?thos, Sk?pelos and Al?nissos.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This new edition of Bradt’s Northern Greece serves as an ideal travelling companion for visitors of all ages, budgets and interests, from culture lovers to wildlife enthusiasts, history buffs to archaeologists, foodies to wine connoisseurs, mountain climbers to sea kayakers ? not to mention those who simply want to relax on a sandy beach before dancing the night away.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Railway Grouping 1923 to the Beeching Era A New History【電子書籍】[ Bob Pixton ]

＜p＞British railways evolved through wars and state control, facing innovations like diesel engines and challenges from road transport amid financial struggles. When King George V ascended to the throne in 1910, world trade was increasing and at home the country's private enterprise railways were booming with larger trains and more freight being carried than ever before. Over the next fifty years the country had experienced not one, but two world wars. Railways had been forcefully reorganized, not once but twice, eventually becoming state owned. With the Government now in control of the railway's finances, reformation was on the horizon in the medicine of Dr. Beeching. This volume sets out to chart the passage of the railways during these turbulent times. Contrary to popular belief, life on the railways during these times was not all doom and gloom but times of innovation, competition, new buildings, new lines and the spread of electrification. This was the era of faster, larger, non-stop expresses, streamlined trains: we even showcased our best trains abroad, not once but twice! More and more people were taking holidays by trains and holiday camps emerged. Challenging the position of steam engines were new diesel locomotives. The Festival of Britain (1951) and the Coronation of Elizabeth (1953) saw the country emerge from the devastation and crippling debt after World War 2. On the horizon were devastating rivals that wounded the previously unassailable position of steam trains: motor lorries and family cars. With looming unsustainable finances, the Government solicited external help to help sort out matters.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Lothian Buses An Era of Change in Edinburgh【電子書籍】[ Fred Kerr ]

＜p＞The city of Edinburgh has always been innovative in its provision of transport ranging from the end of the 19th century when it leased land for the creation of a cable tramway network through operating the same when the lease ended in June 1919 to the current era when it trials a range of vehicles as it seeks to achieve zero carbon emissions by 2030. The company's maintenance standards are sufficiently high that after 15 years of daily service withdrawn vehicles are valued by the second hand vehicle market and continue in further service with operators for a number of years before being scrapped. while 15 years is the normal working life with the company, this is being shortened as new vehicles are introduced to meet the zero carbon commitment. These changes have increased between 2011 and 2022 and the book illustrates them by photographs of the transport fleets ? both buses and trams - operated during that period of change. The operator tries to remain loyal to one supplier but changes within the industry have resulted in a number of different vehicles being purchased; the rationale of the change in supplier is documented as the company returns to previous suppliers. The local transport scene has also seen services disrupted as operators providing services from outside the city boundaries have discontinued services leading to the city operator creating subsidiary companies to provide replacement services. These operate buses initially operated by the city fleet albeit adopting different livery styles that identify their relationship to the city's transport network.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

古本, 英語で予約する, 洋書【古本】 Sex Lives of Cannibals: Adrift in the Equatorial Pacific - J Maarten Troost (Crown) 【紙書籍】 9780767915304

タイトル: Sex Lives of Cannibals: Adrift in the Equatorial Pacific著者: J Maarten Troost出版社: Crown出版日: 2004年06月08日古本ほぼ新品。傷みが少なく、しっかりと製本された、優れた、マークのないコピーです。リサイクル可能なアメリカ製の封筒で発送します。すべての注文に 100% 返金保証付き。At the age of twenty-six, Maarten Troost--who had been pushing the snooze button on the alarm clock of life by racking up useless graduate degrees and muddling through a series of temp jobs--decided to pack up his flip-flops and move to Tarawa, a remote South Pacific island in the Republic of Kiribati. He was restless and lacked direction, and the idea of dropping everything and moving to the ends of the earth was irresistibly romantic. He should have known better. The Sex Lives of Cannibals tells the hilarious story of what happens when Troost discovers that Tarawa is not the island paradise he dreamed of. Falling into one amusing misadventure after another, Troost struggles through relentless, stifling heat, a variety of deadly bacteria, polluted seas, toxic fish--all in a country where the only music to be heard for miles around is "La Macarena." He and his stalwart girlfriend Sylvia spend the next two years battling incompetent government officials, alarmingly large critters, erratic electricity, and a paucity of food options (including the Great Beer Crisis); and contending with a bizarre cast of local characters, including "Half-Dead Fred" and the self-proclaimed Poet Laureate of Tarawa (a British drunkard who's never written a poem in his life). With The Sex Lives of Cannibals, Maarten Troost has delivered one of the most original, rip-roaringly funny travelogues in years--one that will leave you thankful for staples of American civilization such as coffee, regular showers, and tabloid news, and that will provide the ultimate vicarious adventure.

古本, 英語で予約する, 洋書【古本】 Widow, the Priest and the Octopus Hunter: Discovering a Lost Way of Life on a Secluded Japanese Island - Amy Chavez (Tuttle Publishing) 【紙書籍】 9784805316917

タイトル: Widow, the Priest and the Octopus Hunter: Discovering a Lost Way of Life on a Secluded Japanese Island著者: Amy Chavez出版社: Tuttle Publishing出版日: 2022年05月24日古本ほぼ新品。傷みが少なく、しっかりと製本された、優れた、マークのないコピーです。リサイクル可能なアメリカ製の封筒で発送します。すべての注文に 100% 返金保証付き。Get to know the inhabitants of a tiny Japanese island--and their unusual stories and secrets--through this fascinating, intimate collection of portraits. "This book beautifully describes the residents of tiny Shiraishi Island as well as telling how Amy herself came to be in such a fascinating little corner of Japan...Amy herself, with this book, has shown herself an integral part of this preservation. --Rebecca Otowa, author of At Home in Japan When American journalist Amy Chavez moved to the tiny island of Shiraishi (population 430), she rented a house from an elderly woman named Eiko, who left many of her most cherished possessions in the house--including a portrait of Emperor Hirohito and a family altar bearing the spirit tablet of her late husband. Why did she abandon these things? And why did her tombstone later bear the name of a daughter no one knew? These are just some of the mysteries Amy pursues as she explores the lives of Shiraishi's elusive residents. The 31 revealing accounts in this book include: The story of 40-year-old fisherman Hiro, one of two octopus hunters left on the island, who moved back to his home island to fill a void left by his brother who died in a boating accident.A Buddhist priest, eighty-eight, who reflects on his childhood during the war years, witnessing fighter pilots hiding in bunkers on the back side of the island. A "pufferfish widow," so named because her husband died after accidentally eating a poisonous pufferfish.The ex-postmaster who talks about hiking over the mountains at night to deliver telegrams at a time when there were only 17 telephone numbers on the island. Interspersed with the author's reflections on her own life on the island, these stories paint an evocative picture of the dramatic changes which have taken place in Japanese society across nearly a century. Fascinating insights into local superstitions and folklore, memories of the war and the bombing of nearby Hiroshima, and of Shiraishi's heyday as a resort in the 1960s and 70s are interspersed with accounts of common modern-day problems like the collapse of the local economy and a rapidly-aging community which has fewer residents each year.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】True Tales of a Traveller Volume Three【電子書籍】[ Alix Lee ]

＜p＞This is the third book in the True Tales of a Traveller series, and it consists of three novella-length tales, Overlanding Pt.2, One Day in Bangkok, and Solid Gold, Easy Action.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Overlanding consists of two parts of approximately equal length. Due to length considerations, these two parts are published separately, with Part One appearing in Volume Two of the True Tales of a Traveller series, and Part Two appearing in Volume Three (the two are also published separately as one book). Although this story is best appreciated by reading the full account, it isn't necessary to read any of the previous stories to enjoy any story in the series. Part Two of Overlanding, presented here, is an account the journey from the Turkish-Iranian border to the Netherlands.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Of all my travels in the 1980s, in terms of time spent, undoubtedly no journey made such a deep and lasting impression on me as this overland trip from Karachi to Rotterdam, which in total took just a little over three weeks. The journey turned out to be something I originally had never suspected for a moment it would be: an intensive course in the follies of racial prejudice and ethnic chauvinism.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The story includes examples of racial and ethnic prejudice and discrimination involving, one way or another, Japanese, Pakistanis, Iranians, Arabs, Turks, Greeks, Germans, Dutch, British, and Irish, whites, blacks, Jews, Muslims, and non-Muslims! Although this turned out to be the overriding 'theme' of the journey, needless to say, when I embarked on it, such a possibility was far from my mind.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The tenth story in the True Tales of a Traveller series (and the second story in this book), One Day in Bangkok is set in Thailand and the Netherlands. It's a story of an ambitious travel plan thwarted by the kind of seasoned tricksters who prey on tourists anywhere in the world where the volume of foreign visitors make it worthwhile to devise schemes to relieve them of their finances. At least one of the schemes detailed in the story is still in use today, though perhaps in a slightly different form, and it even has its own Wikipedia page. This true account serves as a reference and a warning, just as valid for travellers who have been on the road for years as it is for those setting off overseas for the first time.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The eleventh story in the series overall and the last story in this book, Solid Gold, Easy Action, is probably the most unique story of the whole series, for it involves a very unusual kind of work I was engaged in for several months in east Asia, and this kind of work seems to have long since disappeared, almost without a trace.＜/p＞ ＜p＞When writing this story, I tried to find other accounts or references to this kind of work, to be sure I hadn't missed any salient facts in this writing. The only references to this kind of work I could find online had been written years after I had been involved in it, at a time when it had already become unprofitable.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Madrid Pride: Your Complete Travel Companion to Madrid Pride Events.【電子書籍】[ Sebastian Dean ]

＜p＞Madrid has long been known as a city of open arms, a place where cultures, traditions, and identities intertwine against a backdrop of vivid colors and spirited streets. For many, it is a destination of art, food, and history, but for othersーparticularly those in the LGBTQ+ communityーit holds an even more profound significance. Pride in Madrid is not just a festival or an event that comes once a year; it is a living, breathing testament to resilience, visibility, and joy. In this book, the aim is to capture the spirit of that celebration, not in abstract terms, but through the stories, experiences, and cultural richness that make it one of the most celebrated Pride destinations in the world.＜/p＞ ＜p＞When people hear the word "Pride," they may think of parades, music, and rainbow flags lining the streets. In Madrid, Pride is certainly all of that, but it is also an expression of unity. It is the sound of voices raised together in celebration and in protest. It is the art installations tucked into the narrow lanes of Chueca. It is the clinking of glasses on rooftop bars where conversations flow freely without fear. It is families, friends, and strangers linking arms in solidarity. Pride here has evolved from small gatherings to one of the largest Pride celebrations in Europe, drawing visitors from across the globe. Yet, at its core, it remains rooted in the personalーeach smile, each embrace, each act of courage that takes place on the city's streets.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book is not meant to be an academic account of Madrid's Pride history, nor is it a simple travel guide. It is a journey through momentsーboth monumental and subtleーthat together form the fabric of Madrid's LGBTQ+ life. From the early days of activism to the exuberance of today's events, it follows the threads of change and resilience. It also pays homage to the places and people who make Pride possible, not just in June but throughout the year.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The narrative takes you into the neighborhoods where Pride's heart beats the loudest, such as Chueca, where rainbow flags flutter above caf?s and where music spills from the doors of lively bars. It introduces you to the cultural institutions, hidden alleyways, and well-known landmarks that serve as both historical touchstones and living spaces for the community. Along the way, you will find stories from locals and visitors alikeーtales of first Pride experiences, of returning year after year, and of discovering a home away from home.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In the pages that follow, you will also find a look at the many faces of Madrid Pride. There are parades and performances, yes, but also activism, art, food, nightlife, and an enduring sense of belonging. Pride here is not simply an event; it is part of the city's identity. That identity is shaped by its peopleーthose who fight for equality, those who create spaces for joy, and those who travel from afar to be a part of it all.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This preface is not the start of a travel itinerary, but a welcome into a story that belongs to everyone who values freedom, diversity, and unity. The rest of this book will take you deeper into that story, exploring not just the events themselves, but the meaning behind them, the history that made them possible, and the community that keeps them alive. Pride in Madrid is more than a moment in the calendarーit is a heartbeat you can feel the instant you arrive.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】A Slow Walk Through Kyoto【電子書籍】[ Kenshin ]

＜p＞This is a book for those who are not cherry blossom experts. For those who cannot name a single bloom, yet find themselves captivated by its fleeting beauty. For those who always arrive a little late each spring, missing the peak, yet vow to return next year, hoping to catch the petals before they fall.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞A Slow Walk Through Kyoto＜/em＞ is written from the perspective of a traveler who has wandered the city’s streets for many springs. It is not a guide to grand history, nor a showcase of literary sophistication. Instead, it is a gentle diary, recording every encounter with Kyoto’s cherry blossomsーmoments of surprise, moments of quiet loss, moments that linger long after the petals have drifted away.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Within its pages, you will walk into Kyoto’s hidden corners, where history whispers softly among the blooms. Hear the legend of the “Leaper” at Kiyomizu-dera, where daring souls once flung themselves from the temple’s wooden stage. Discover the calculated elegance behind Hideyoshi’s cherry blossom parties at Daigo-ji, where politics and petals intertwined in the spring air. Pause at Daikaku-ji, where cherry shadows ripple across serene waters, and feel the hush of centuries settle in your chest. Stand among the cherry trees at Kinkaku-ji, overlooking the resting place of two hundred Aizu samurai, whose spirits lie peacefully with the spring breeze.＜/p＞ ＜p＞You do not need to know haiku, nor master photography. This book asks only that you breathe, that you notice, that you allow yourself to be moved. Each page is a quiet step along Kyoto’s streets, each sentence a pause to watch petals drift, to hear the faint rustle of branches, to feel the transient beauty of spring as it unfolds before your eyes.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Kyoto’s blossoms are a lesson in impermanence. Petals drift like snow through the streets of Gion, scattering over temples and rooftops alike. Sometimes you arrive too late, the petals already gone, the air heavy with what could have been. Yet even in loss, there is grace. The memory of beauty, the anticipation of next spring, the hope of another encounterーthese are the quiet rhythms of cherry blossoms, the heartbeat of Kyoto itself.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book is for the wanderers, the ordinary souls who still believe in the magic of spring. For those who may not know the names, but feel the awe. It is a companion to slow walks, to waiting, to noticing the world in its tender, fleeting moments.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Every stroll through Kyoto, every glance at a bloom, every moment spent reading this book is an invitation to pause. To remember that beauty is patient, that spring will return, and that every blossom tells a storyーif only we are willing to see it.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞A Slow Walk Through Kyoto＜/em＞ will not teach you to be an expert. It will not promise perfect views or grand spectacles. What it offers is quieter, yet infinitely more precious: the chance to walk through spring with open eyes, to feel the passage of time in petals falling, to experience Kyoto’s cherry blossoms as if for the first time.＜/p＞ ＜p＞For those who have missed the bloom, yet still long for it. For those who feel the pull of history beneath the branches, and the whisper of stories in every petal. For those who simply wish to notice beauty once more, and carry it gently in their hearts.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book is your invitation. To walk slowly, to breathe deeply, to wait patiently. To let the blossoms fall around you, and feel spring bloom within.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Because sometimes, the most ordinary hearts see the most extraordinary things. And sometimes, that is enough.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】SAAB Cars 1949 to 2011 A Pictorial History【電子書籍】[ Julian Parish ]

＜p＞More than a dozen years after the last cars rolled off the production lines in Trollh?ttan, Saab still commands a keen following among car enthusiasts around the world. During the 60 years of its existence, Saab became renowned for the aerodynamic design, technical innovation and sturdy construction of its cars, which famously appealed to individualists and creative thinkers.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This handy full-colour guide covers the complete history of Saab’s cars. The story begins with the ‘Ursaab’ prototype and the original 92, which went into production in 1949 as the company branched out from aircraft manufacture after the war; it continues through to the final second-generation 9-5 models in 2011, launched when the company was struggling to stay afloat.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Individual chapters are devoted to each of Saab’s models, including the 93 and 96 saloons, which enjoyed much success in rallying, the 95 station wagon and the striking Sonett sports cars. The SaabO caravan and the Formula Junior racing car that Saab built during this period are also presented.＜/p＞ ＜p＞These early models were followed by the larger 99 and the much-loved and highly successful 900 range. The book features detailed specifications for each version of these two models, including the first turbocharged variants, with which Saab has become synonymous. In 1985, the 9000 took the marque further upmarket and into partnership with Fiat, Lancia and Alfa Romeo.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The guide continues into the 1990s and 2000s, when General Motors progressively took control of Saab’s automotive division. Its bestsellers during this period were its 9-3 and 9-5 ranges, based on GM platforms. Less well-known, especially in Europe, are its 9-4X and 9-7X all-wheel-drive models, not forgetting the 9-2X, a badge-engineered version of the Subaru Impreza. All these models are also presented.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Each chapter provides an introduction to the development and evolution of each model, as well as comprehensive technical information. Production numbers and dates are given, as well as details of limited editions. The book is extensively illustrated in full colour, with many archive photographs from Saab Automobile and the Saab Car Museum showing the cars’ interior and exterior design.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

In Once in Kazakhstan, Rosten draws a sometimes humorous portrait of a critical period in the emergence of this Central Asian country, interweaving the challenges and exhilaration of living in Kazakhstan with the historical backdrop of a nation grappling with its independence. From horse heads in the Central Market, to guns on the ski slopes, and to the first-ever parliamentary elections, Rosten takes you on a whirlwind tour of the country. He vividly recounts the change in currency from the Soviet ruble to the tenge and travels with a candidate for parliament to a rural village near Semipalatinsk. Using his knowledge of local language and customs, Rosten provides access to native sources on the history, politics, traditions, and spirit of Kazakhstan. Complete with photographs of the people, places, and monuments of the country, Once in Kazakhstan is an invaluable resource for anyone who is interested in learning more about, or traveling to, the fascinating landscape of this emerging nation.

タイトル: Wah-to-Yah and the Taos Trail (Revised)著者: Lewis H Garrard出版社: University of Oklahoma Press出版日: 2017年09月21日古本ほぼ新品。傷みが少なく、しっかりと製本された、優れた、マークのないコピーです。リサイクル可能なアメリカ製の封筒で発送します。すべての注文に 100% 返金保証付き。In the bright morning of his youth Lewis H. Garrard traveled into the wild and free Rocky Mountain West and left us this fresh and vigorous account, which, says A. B. Guthrie, Jr., contains in its pages "the genuine article-the Indian, the trader, the mountain man, their dress, and behavior and speech and the country and climate they lived in."On September 1, 1846, Garrard, then only seventeen years old, left Westport Landing (now Kansas City) with a caravan, under command of the famous trader Céran St. Vrain, bound for Bent's Fort (Fort William) in the southeastern part of present-day Colorado. After a lengthy visit at the fort and in a camp of the Cheyenne Indians, early in 1847 he joined the little band of volunteers recruited by William Bent to avenge the death of his brother, Governor Charles Bent of Taos, killed in a bloody but brief Mexican and Indian uprising in that New Mexican pueblo. In fact, Garrard's is the only eyewitness account we have of the trial and hanging of the "revolutionaries" at Taos.Many notable figures of the plains and mountains dot his pages: traders St. Vrain and the Bents; mountain men John L. Hatcher, Jim Beckwourth, Lucien B. Maxwell, Kit Carson, and others; various soldiery traveling to and from the outposts of the Mexican War; and explorer and writer George F. Ruxton.

Theroux's great mission had always been to transport us beyond that reading chair, to challenge himself--and thus, to challenge us." -- Boston Globe Paul Theroux's best-selling Dark Star Safari chronicled his epic overland voyage from Cairo to Cape Town, providing an insider's look at modern Africa. Now, with The Last Train to Zona Verde, he returns to discover how both he and Africa have changed in the ensuing years. Traveling alone, Theroux sets out from Cape Town, going north through South Africa, Namibia, then into Angola, encountering a world increasingly removed from tourists' itineraries and the hopes of postcolonial independence movements. After covering nearly 2,500 arduous miles, he cuts short his journey, a decision he chronicles with unsparing honesty in a chapter titled "What Am I Doing Here?" Vivid, witty, and beautifully evocative, The Last Train to Zona Verde is a fitting final African adventure from the writer whose gimlet eye and effortless prose have brought the world to generations of readers. "Everything is under scrutiny in Paul Theroux's latest travel book--not just the people, landscapes and sociopolitical realities of the countries he visits, but his own motivations for going where he goes . . . His readers can only be grateful." -- Seattle Times "If this book is proof, age has not slowed Theroux or encouraged him to rest on his achievements . . . Gutsy, alert to Africa's struggles, its injustices and history." -- San Francisco Chronicle
