"In 'HOLD THE ENLIGHTENMENT', one of America's favourite and funniest adventure writer returns with his most entertaining collection of essays yet as he travels the globe and faces down challenges that are animal, topographical - and human. 'HOLD THE ENLIGHTENMENT' takes Cahill to sites as far-flung as Saharan salt mines, the Congolese jungle, and Hanford, Washington, home of the largest toxic waste dump in the Western Hemisphere. With trademark wit and insight, Cahill describes stalking the legendary Caspian tiger in the mountains bordering Iraq, slogging through a pitch-black Australian Eucalyptus forest to find the nocturnal platypus, diving with great white sharks in South Africa, staving off enlightenment at a yoga retreat in Negril, Jamaica, and much, much more. In these essays, vivid and masterly storytelling combine with outrageously sly humour and jolts of real emotion to show one of the most popular journalists of our time at the peak of his game"

'Du bist irgendwo im Ausland, sprichst die Sprache nicht, hast deinen Geldbeutel verloren oder sogar geklaut bekommen, und du besitzt weder Geld noch Papiere. Kurz bevor du hysterisch wirst, steht auf einmal dieser Fremde vor dir und rettet dich – aus nur einem einzigen Grund: Güte. Er gibt dir den Glauben an das Gute im Menschen zurück. Dieses Buch handelt von solchen unerwarteten Geschenken und wie sie unser Leben verändern.' Isabel Allende Wir alle haben sie schon erlebt: die überwältigende Erfahrung, im Ausland neue Freunde zu finden – ob mit Hilfe einer Landkarte, der richtigen Übersetzung eines Worts oder einer passenden Münze für den Fahrscheinautomaten. Der vorliegende Band versammelt die schönsten Reiseerlebnisse in Originalbeiträgen: von Dave Eggers, Tim Cahill, Simon Winchester und über zwanzig weiteren Schriftstellern von Rang.

Winter in Yellowstone National Park is a powerful and enchanting season, marked by super-heated water erupting into frigid air and wildlife struggling for survival amid the snow. Photographer Tom Murphy has uniquely captured this wilderness, skiing deep into the backcountry with heavy camera gear, a resilience to the cold, and an artist’s eye. His work reveals a majestic landscape where clean, clear air allows a wolf’s howl to echo for miles. In "Silence & Yellowstone’s Winter Wilderness," 130 stunning photographs showcase the splendor and intensity of Yellowstone's harsh winter. Through these images, we gain insight into the lives of wildlife enduring the cold, feel the inspiring power of an untamed landscape, and appreciate nature’s beauty in both grand and subtle forms. Murphy’s thoughtful captions enhance the experience, allowing us to smile at a fox hunting for a mouse, understand the stoic presence of bison in geothermal steam, and marvel at fleeting moments of light that transform ordinary scenes into breathtaking vistas. As noted by author Tim Cahill in his foreword, Murphy’s work reflects a deep passion and knowledge, making these photographs not only visually stunning but also wise and insightful.

On 20 November 1820, just south of the equator, the whaling ship Essex, out of Nantucket, spotted a 'shoal' of sperm whales. It was a fine clear day, about eight in the morning. Two whaling boats, lightly built for rowing speed, were lowered from the Essex. The crew pursued and harpooned tree of the whales, whereupon the largest of them - some 85 feet long - rammed the Essex twice in ten minutes and 'stove in her bows'. This remarkable incident was followed by an epic three-month journey in open boats across storm-tossed seas - a feat of navigation and survival that rivals those of Shackleton and Bligh. Only eight men survived, sustained by eating six of those who died. Twenty-three-year-old Owen Chase was first mate of the Essex. His narrative of these events makes compulsive reading. This edition also includes memoirs by another crew member and by ship's captain, as well as a facsimile of Herman Melville's notes on Chase's account. Capturing all the elements of an ancient and powerful tragedy, this book is a thrilling tale of survival - as well as a frightful illustration of man's darkest impulses.
