Condición: Good. At the southern tip of the great African continent lies a land of superlative landscapes, where the fertile ground is laced with diamonds and gold, uninterrupted plains teem with wildlife, and nature's bounty continues to brim over into the everyday lives of many peoples. These are the images of South Africa, and this is the story they tell.…

Hardback. Condición: Good. A nation with eleven official languages, innumerable cultural influences -- from the anakwetha to the Zulu dancer, and nine provinces that cover no less than seven separate vegetation biomes, South Africa boasts a complexity of geology, climate, culture and biodiversity shared by no other country in the world. This remarkable portfolio of images reflects the many extraordinary faces of this land of contrasts: from the Cape's famous landmark of Table Mountain, along the flower routes of the West Coast into the semi-desert reaches of the Kalahari and the Northern Cape to the rich cultural heritage that seems to permeate every corner -- from the traditional homesteads of the Wild Coast and battlefields of the Drakensberg foothills, to the farmland of the Free State and the great cities of Gauteng. The book traces the vast and complicated heritage of indigenous people and settlers, and the places -- flora and fauna, beaches and mountains, deserts and rainforests -- that make up this land of exceptional contrasts.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Everyone said it could not be done; even internationally renowned sports scientists such as Dr Tim Noakes. Certainly no-one had done it before, though many had tried: to run the Great Wall of China, end to end, non-stop. The journey would start in the Gobi Desert, cross the jagged Taihang Shan range, and end at the Bo Sea. It would involve blood boiling heat and mummifying sandstorms, soul-numbing mountain nights, incidents with bandits and draconian officials, pig's-head soup and witnessing large-scale environmental devastation. But no-one had counted on the tenacity of South African nature-lover Braam Malherbe. In running the main intact section of the Great Wall, 4500 kilometres end to end, Braam and his running partner David Grier set a world first. But Braam would have to call on reserves far deeper -- physically and emotionally -- than even he realised he had. China was never going to let him off lightly; then again, it would not leave a worthy traveller unmoved or unchanged. What began as a running-away, from long-buried childhood trauma, family suffering and loss, as well as hurt felt for the state of the planet, would eventually become a journey towards inner peace and understanding. The book concludes with the writer running into a new vision of healing the planet, step by small step, one person at a time. …
