''A highly readable and spiritually uplifting book about a dream come true'' Wanderlust ''Touching and memorable ... one for armchair travellers and bike freaks'' Daily MailFrom London to New York, Ewan and Charley chased their shadows through Europe, the Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Mongolia and Russia, across the Pacific to Alaska, then down through Canada and America. But as the miles slipped beneath the tyres of their big BMWs, their troubles started. Exhaustion, injury and accidents tested their strength. Treacherous roads, unpredictable weather and turbulent politics challenged their stamina. They were chased by paparazzi in Kazakhstan, courted by men with very large guns in the Ukraine, hassled by the police, and given bulls'' testicles for supper by Mongolian nomads. And yet despite all these obstacles they managed to ride more than twenty thousand miles in four months, changing their lives forever in the process. As they travelled they documented their trip, taking photographs, and writing diaries by the campfire. Long Way Round is the result of their adventures - a fascinating, frank and highly entertaining travel book about two friends riding round the world together and, against all the odds, realising their dream.

Na motorce kolem světa Většině motorářů nestačí jenom jezdit po městě. Za chvíli je ovládne nutkání jezdit pořád rychleji a na vzdálenější místa a podlehnou lákadlu otevřené cesty. Ježdění na motorkách není jenom o tom, že tam prostě napálíš nejvyšší rychlost. Je to taky o tom, že si dáváš načas, pomalu polykáš kilometry, křižuješ silnice, necháváš se unést kamkoliv tě cesta zavede, neděláš si starosti s tím, kam máš dojet a užíváš si jízdu. Tento příběh jistě znáte z televizního pořadu, který byl u nás vysílaný pod názvem Na mašině kolem světa. Kniha přináší hlubší a otevřenější pohled na často strastiplnou cestu na dvou kolech , byť s podpůrným týmem v zádech. Dlouhá cesta na jih V pořadí druhé dobrodružství známé herecké dvojice, tentokráte Afrikou. Cherley Boorman glosuje: Vzpomínám si, jak to začalo. Bylo to jednoho pozdního pátečního večera v říjnu 2004. Byli jsme v naší staré kanceláři na Bulwer Street. Všude byly krabice a kusy papíru, a veškeré vybavení bylo pryč. Několik minut jsme tam jen tak stáli a přemýšleli. Tady začala celá naše cesta "Na motorce kolem světa". Tady jsme to všechno plánovali, kontrolovali mapy; tady jsme poprvé uviděli ty motorky. Bylo to za námi. Objeli jsme svět. Byla to obrovská cesta. Impozantní dobrodružství. Ale teď už bylo po všem. Na zdech pořád ještě visely mapy a my zase stáli před nimi. Ewan na mě mrknul. "Co říkáš, Charley?" "Nevím." "Jižní Afrika, nebo možná Indie?" Podíval jsem se na něj: "Co takhle projet Afriku?" Cestovatelská touha dvou dobrodruhů, Ewana McGregora a Chaleyho Boormana, po jejich senzační cestě kolem světa v roce 2004 neutuchla. Poté, co v Africe navštívili UNICEF, bylo jim jasné, že se musí vrátit a blíže se s tímto pozoruhodným světadílem seznámit. A tak se vydali na 24 000 kilometrů dlouhou dobrodružnou výpravu, při které se setkali s tím nejobtížnějším terénem a těmi nejpřátelštějšími lidmi na světě. Při jízdě velkolepou krajinou, často v extrémních teplotách, čelili Ewan a Charley nejtěžším zkouškám svého života. Se svým příznačným humorem popisují dramata, nebezpečí a ryzí potěšení z další společné jízdy, tentokrát skrze kontinent plný divů a zázraků. Osmnáct zemí. Dvacet čtyři tisíc kilometrů. Dva motorkáři. Jedno úžasné dobrodružství… Závod do Dakaru Byli jsme kdesi v kanceláři a do místnosti právě přinesli naši knihu Na motorce kolem světa. Panovalo tam skutečné vzrušení. Oba jsme zavřeli oči a zakryli si je rukama a kniha byla položena na stůl. A pak: ta dá! Byla tady a my jsme tam byli, stáli jsme na obálce hrdě jako dva objevitelé z dávných dob. Naše první kniha. Byla tou první pro nás pro oba a oba jsme se jeden na druhého hrozně křenili. „Fíha,“ řekli jsme. „Koukni na to... ten obrázek se táhne přes celou obálku.“ „Paráda.“Chvíli jsme v ní v tichosti listovali, prohlíželi si skupinové fotky a předčítali jsme kratičké kousky. Hruď mi naplňoval pocit h hrdosti, když Charley najednou prohlásil: „A kurva." „Co?“ zeptal jsem se. „Je tady napsaný, že v roce 2006 jedu Dakar.“

In A Long Way South, itinerant traveller Sara Stewart relates memories salvaged from her explorations of Latin America during 1974/5, a turbulent, politically unstable period where kidnappings and smuggling were commonplace, where dead bodies lined the roads and where tanks guarded the streets of two capitals following a military coup and insurgency.Posing as the ship captain''s niece, Sara crossed the Atlantic in a cargo boat before docking in Veracruz, Mexico. There she followed an Irishman and his pack of hounds as they hunted jackals through desert cacti, then met film makers and fishermen - and fell in love. Travelling by local buses and trains, she gradually headed south, watching dead bodies pile up in Central American countries and celebrating Christmas in El Salvador, before eventually reaching South America. In Ecuador she rode on a train roof through towering landscapes and encountered tribal people, then travelled by sea to the fabled Galápagos Islands. Once back on the South American mainland, she braved rampant lawlessness in Lima, tanks and troops lining the streets of the Peruvian capital. In Bolivia she joined a bus full of female smugglers, traversed flooded rivers and survived freezing nights. Tanks also characterised Sara''s time in Santiago, the Chilean capital, which had just experienced a military coup that ended democracy and established General Pinochet''s long-lasting dictatorship. Continuing southwards, Sara crossed the vastness of Patagonia to endure rough seas on a boat with esteemed author Bruce Chatwin, before venturing across the Andes into Argentina. The country proved to be out of control, characterised by crazy inflation, political mayhem and kidnappings, and abject poverty contrasting with ostentatious wealth. Reaching Brazil, Sara''s journey culminated with marvelling at Iguaçu Falls before unexpectedly partying with notorious Great Train Robber and fugitive Ronnie Biggs near Rio de Janeiro''s Ipanema Beach.An authentic recollection of intrepid travels during an era long before travel became straightforward, the memoirs collated in A Long Way South are a thrilling, engaging read - a compendium of tales as much about remarkable people as they are about the diverse, fascinating places and charged political situations that characterised 1970s Latin America.

From Paris Olympics star and legendary gymnast Simone Biles’s longtime coach, an insider’s look at the making of a championWith a Foreword by Simone BilesThe Balance is coach Aimee Boorman’s inside account of the growth of a transcendent athlete and the tumultuous events—from the dictatorial coaching of Martha Karolyi to the sexual abuse by Larry Nassar—that upended the lives of many girls, including Biles. Simone Biles is one of the greatest athletes of all time. She’s won six all-around world championships and eleven Olympic medals (seven gold). Five gymnastics moves are named after her, she received the Presidential Medal of Freedom (the youngest recipient ever), and at an age when most elite gymnasts have retired, Biles is not just still competing—she’s dominating. She soared in the 2024 Paris Olympics, bringing home more Olympic gold. She’s having so much fun that LA 2028 is not out of the question. But when coach Aimee Borman met her at a gym in Texas, Simone was just a seven-year-old kid. An exceptionally athletically gifted one, to be sure, but not yet great. That would take time, care, love, and balance. Boorman helped shape Biles, both pushing her and holding her back, protecting both her mental and physical health. “She’s like a second mom to me,” writes Biles, and Boorman was the National Team coach in 2016, where the US—and Biles—took home all-around gold.The Balance combines unprecedented insider perspective on a legend, newsworthy details on gymnastics history, and compelling lessons on coaching, leadership, and development.

In summer 2024, Charli XCX released BRAT. It defined the summer with songs like '360', 'Apple' and 'Von Dutch', but it was more than perfect pop - it was fashion, it was an attitude, it was a cultural phenomenon. This book charts the rise of Charli XCX - from 'young girl from Essex' to pop icon. Written by music journalist Charlotte Gunn, this book is a deep-dive into the music, styles and influence of Charli. Complete with behind-the-scenes stories and incredible photos, chapters delve into her early musical inspirations to her collaborations with Troye Sivan and Billie Eilish, from her inimitable lyrical vulnerability and the lockdown recording of the album How I'm Feeling Now, which resonated with a huge LGBTQ+ audience. While nothing can compare to the energy of a CharliXCX gig, this book is the next best thing.

The Dubliner has achieved more in three years with the UFC than anyone in the 20 year history of the organization. From an unknown prospect to the first man to hold two world titles simultaneously, McGregor''s knockout-filled march through the featherweight and lightweight rankings sent shockwaves through the world. But as effortless as McGregor''s heroics seem, his journey was far from smooth. Just another teenager trading martial arts techniques with his friends, he chased a pipe dream with little promise of reward. No one guessed he would become the biggest pay-per-view attraction in the world. This is not another tale of an athlete born exceptional and groomed for success. It is about how one young man, through bloody-minded determination and indomitable spirit, changed the whole game.

A clarion call about the dangers of medicine for women, as well as a manual for how women can get the right care for their bodies.Sex Matters tackles one of the most urgent, yet unspoken issues facing women''s health care today: all models of medical research and practice are based on male-centric models that ignore the unique biological and emotional differences between men and women - an omission that endangers women''s lives. The facts surrounding how male-centric medicine impacts women''s health every day are chilling: in the ER, women are more likely to receive a psychiatric diagnosis with regard to opioid use, while men are more likely to be referred for detoxification; the more vocal women become about their pain, the more likely their providers are to prescribe either inadequate or inappropriate pain relief medication; women often present with nontraditional symptoms of stroke, which causes delays in recognition by both them and their health professionals; and a government accountability study found that 80% of drugs that are withdrawn from the market are due to side effects that happen to women (a result of testing drugs mostly on men).Leading expert on sex and gender medicine Dr Alyson McGregor focuses on the key areas where these differences are most potentially harmful, addressing:· Cardiac and stroke diagnosis and treatment in women; · Prescription and dosing of pharmaceuticals;· Subjective evaluation of women''s symptoms; · Pain and pain management;· Hormones and female biochemistry (including prescribed hormones); · How economic status, race, and gender identity are additional critical factors.Not only does Dr McGregor explore these disparities in depth, she shares clear, practical suggestions for what we can do. A work of riveting expose, revelatory insights into the medical establishment and actionable guidance for putting this information to use, Sex Matters is an empowering roadmap for reinventing modern medicine - and for self-care.(P)2020 Hachette Audio

Cecil Thomas is convicted for the crime, but his trial leaves more questions than answers. As much as his daughter Liz McGregor tries to move beyond her grief - she finds new work, she even discovers love - she still wants answers. What drove Thomas to torture and kill a complete stranger?The author meets the murderer''s family and discovers that he comes from a loving, comfortable home. He is educated and skilled, there is no apparent reason for his descent into delinquency. After protracted obstruction from the prison authorities, she finally gets to confront him but not without putting herself in danger. She finds answers, but not the answers she is looking for.Unforgiven tells a story seldom told: what happens to a family when one of their own is murdered? In a country where, year upon year, tens of thousands of people lose a loved one to violence. Where restorative justice is preached but not practiced. Where prisons are universities of crime.
