Sinopse

Roald Amundsen's 'The South Pole' is a detailed account of his historic expedition to become the first person to reach the South Pole. Through vivid descriptions and meticulous documentation, Amundsen portrays the harsh and unforgiving Antarctic landscape, as well as the challenges faced by his team on this groundbreaking journey. Written in a straightforward and factual style, the book provides a valuable firsthand perspective on one of the greatest achievements in exploration history. Amundsen's narrative is both engaging and informative, making it a compelling read for those interested in polar exploration and adventure literature. Despite being a non-fiction account, 'The South Pole' reads like a well-crafted adventure story, drawing readers in with its suspense and intrigue. Roald Amundsen's personal experiences and insights add depth to the narrative, allowing readers to truly grasp the significance of his accomplishments. I highly recommend 'The South Pole' to anyone seeking a captivating and informative exploration of the Antarctic and the indomitable spirit of the human quest for discovery.

    "Always to have sympathy, always to be accompanied, always to be understood would be intolerable."
    Virginia Woolf's essay begins by lamenting the surprise neglect of ill-health as a potential literary subject. What then unfolds is a dazzlingly written series of reflections on sickness, fiction, and the chilling indifference of the natural world. Above all a testament to the fundamental solitariness of the human soul, this is an indispensable work by the preeminent stylist of twentieth-century English literature.

    It is now more than seventy years since the creation of the state of Israel, yet its origins and the British Empire's historic responsibility for Palestine remain little known. Confusion persists too as to the distinction between anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism. In Legacy of Empire, Gardner Thompson offers a clear-eyed review of political Zionism and Britain's role in shaping the history of Palestine and Israel. Thompson explores why the British government adopted Zionism in the early twentieth century, issuing the Balfour Declaration in 1917 and then retaining it as the cornerstone of their rule in Palestine after the First World War. Despite evidence and warnings, over the next two decades Britain would facilitate the colonisation of Arab Palestine by Jewish immigrants, ultimately leading to a conflict which it could not contain. Britain's response was to propose the partition of an ungovernable land: a 'two-state solution' which - though endorsed by the United Nations after the Second World War - has so far brought into being neither two states nor a solution. A highly readable and compelling account of Britain's rule in Palestine, Legacy of Empire is essential for those wishing to better understand the roots of this enduring conflict.
