Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. At the age of 22, Brad, a notoriously outgoing and gregarious person, was celebrating a belated birthday present; a thrill-seeking tandem skydive. In what can only be described as a freak accident, Brad and his instructors parachute failed to open properly. Not once but twice. The reserve chute got tangled in the first. With both parachutes failing, they circled furiously in the air like two rag dolls in a treacherous vortex, plunging 14,000 feet to the ground at 80kmph. What are the odds of surviving a freefall from a plane 14,000 feet in the air? That is the equivalent of free falling from half of Everest. Well, they did survive, only just, but not without trauma and injury. Both physical and mental. A broken spine and torn neck were Brads physical scars; severe depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) were his unseen scars. Brad went from a fun-loving, carefree young man to an introverted recluse, silently battling the dark throes of physical pain and deep emotional scarring. With large doses of family love and intense personal counselling, Brad slowly fought back to reclaim a new life. A life that wasnt like the old one, for that had died in the accident, but nevertheless a new life with a new perspective.Freefall tells Brads story and is for anyone changed by unforeseen and catastrophic events or their friends and families. It is a powerful picture of what is often referred to as post-traumatic growth. We may be broken, but we can put ourselves back together in beautiful, new ways.Brad Guy's book is a testament to the healing power of human connection and the resilience of the human soul. It is a beacon of hope for those who have suffered trauma because it shows us that although the road back to life may be rocky, it is nonetheless there.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. With the assistance of Garrys partner, Angela Emslie, The Shannon Company has compiled a selection of papers, speeches, poems and even a few songs penned by Garry Weaven over the course of his 40-year connection to the superannuation industry. Combined with a few photographs and some enlightening press clippings, this collection tells a story written, as it were, between the lines, of the remarkable journey of Australias superannuation system and provides glimpses of the spirit of the person who has undoubtedly been one of its leading lights. The story of the Industry Super Funds movement and the undeniable, life changing impact it has made on the lives of millions of Australian workers and their loved ones is an important story.Yet, with its layers of complexity and necessary adaptation, it was a relatively difficult narrative to understand and consume, until now.Weaven Words tells the story of the remarkable growth and development of Superannuation in Australia in an enjoyable and digestible way.Whether you simply pick up this book to browse through, or focus on a specific article or speech, or even enjoy a line or two of poetry, all will reveal the super charged mind of Garry Weaven.Industry Super has famously been referred to as the Super of the Future. I am certain this book will be part of that future. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. It is a triumph. It is remarkable, and it is beautiful. James Halliday AM A masterpiece Brian Croser AM, founder of Tapanappa and Petaluma Wines A genuinely majestic, indeed monumental, achievement unparalleled in Australian wine scholarship Kim Williams AM Incredibly accessible Nigel Sneyd MW What an extraordinary achievement. Derek McDonell OAM, Hordern House The scope, depth, erudition, and sheer readability of the content is unmatched. Chris Anstee Finalist: Best in the World Wine Book GOURMAND Awards 2024 The Australian Ark is a landmark history of the Australian wine industry. Documenting the times of key people and events from the first days of white settlement to the present day, this three-volume work promises to become the reference of Australian wine history for decades to come. Easy to read, beautifully researched and substantial in scale, The Australian Ark reveals a far more ambitious and fascinating story than previously told. Many observers of the mid-19th Century believed that Australia would become the France of the Southern Hemisphere. Although it would never achieve the same level of wealth as wool, coal and iron ore, wine has always been near the centre of influence and power throughout Australias rich and storied past. Author Andrew Caillard MW, one of the most authoritative wine experts in Australia, has been a central figure in shaping the nation's fine wine agenda for over 40 years. A direct descendant of South Australias Reynell family and a co-founder of auction house Langtons, Andrew Caillard has held a lifelong fascination for industry ambitions, Australias wine families and the countrys social, economic and political history.The Australian Ark integrates all these strands with pace, energy and empathy. Geoffrey Robertson AO KC, Australian human rights barrister, academic, author, and broadcaster, introduces The Australian Ark as: a lengthy and scholastic work [comprising] an enthusiastic tale of an industry we can be proud of. It is a romantic and magnificent story of challenges and heartbreaks, a story of young ambitions in an ancient land, and the development of a truly unique and fascinating wine culture. Volume 1: 17881900, The Colonial Era Volume 2: 19011983, Federation to the Modern Era Volume 3: 1983present day, Contemporary Times Recollections and Perspectives Also included in the work is a Canon of Australian Wine and the fascinating stories behind these labels is intertwined through the narrative. This is not a definitive list of the countrys most important wines and vineyards, but it reveals the overall pattern of development of fine Australian wine and will hopefully spark passionate debate long into the future.
