Описание:
The first issues of Monocle magazine hit newsstands around the globe in 2007. At the magazine's core was a pledge to commission all original photography--capturing the world on film, on the ground, and in the moment. The cover of that first issue featured a Japanese helicopter pilot from the country's defense force, taken as part of a ten-day reportage assignment for both photographer and writer. In the years since, Monocle has continued in its pursuit of documenting the world through its unique lens: from embassies and residences to world leaders and cultural stars. Each issue has featured a dedicated photographic section celebrating lesser-known locales, obscure events, and curious characters through truly outstanding photography. Alpine wrestlers, Syrian outposts, French legionnaires, pasta makers, game show hosts, and private members clubs have all graced the pages.
The Monocle Book of Photography draws on the best of these photographic stories from an archive a decade and a half in the making. A handsome, linen-bound edition with the highest quality gloss paper and printing, the book also features supporting text about the photo assignments and the stories behind them, including firsthand accounts from the photographers.
Here's a breakdown of what you'll find in the debut issue of the Anglotopia Magazine. The magazine is 64 pages, perfect bound and has over 18,000 words of British goodness. It's going to look beautiful when it's printed, we've chosen a printer known for their quality. It will look great on your bookshelf. The magazine will be a keepsake and you'll want to hold on to them for future reference. Originally published in 2017.

Описание:
Unpacked offers a critical, novel perspective on the Caribbean's now taken-for-granted desirability as a tourist's paradise. Dreams of a tropical vacation have become a quintessential aspect of the modern Caribbean, as millions of tourists travel to the region and spend extravagantly to pursue vacation fantasies. At the beginning of the twentieth century, however, travelers from North America and Europe thought of the Caribbean as diseased, dangerous, and, according to many observers, "the white man's graveyard." How then did a trip to the Caribbean become a supposedly fun and safe experience?
Unpacked examines the historical roots of the region's tourism industry by following a well-traveled sea route linking the US East Coast with the island of Cuba and the Isthmus of Panama. Blake C. Scott describes how the cultural and material history of US imperialism became the heart of modern Caribbean tourism. In addition, he explores how advances in tropical medicine, perceptions of the tropical environment, and development of infrastructure and transportation networks opened a new playground for visitors.
Описание: "A fascinating and unique look at these celebrated expeditions. Ed Stafford knows all too well how important an explorer's kit can be and this brilliant book gives great insight into the role it plays." --Sir Ranulph Fiennes
In this unique and enthralling book, explorer and survivalist Ed Stafford curates 25 great expeditions through the lens of the kit these remarkable explorers took with them. In an environment where failure to prepare could mean certain death, the equipment carried, ridden, and sailed into uncharted territories could mean success or failure--with dire consequences. Was it simply a case of better provisions and preparation that helped Amundsen beat Scott to the South Pole? And how has the equipment taken to Everest changed since Hillary's first ascent?
Here for the first time in rare photographs and comprehensive illustrations we can see at a glance the scale, style, and complexity of the items taken into the unknown by the greatest explorers of all time, and the impact each item had on their journey. How it potentially saved a life, or was purely for comfort or entertainment, and how these objects of survival have evolved and adapted as science advances, and we plunge further into the extremes.
Conquering fears and mountains, adversity and wild jungles, each item these explorers flew, pulled, or hauled played a crucial role in their ambitious and dangerous missions to find out a little more about our world. Through each of these objects, we can gain a better understanding ourselves.
Get an intimate view of these and more amazing expeditions:
Roald Amundsen, race to the Pole: Norwegian expedition (snowshoes, Primus stove, piano, violin, gramophone...)
Amelia Earhart, first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean (Bendix radio direction finder, parachutes, emergency life raft, rouge...)
Tim Slessor, first overland from London to Singapore (machetes, crowbar, typewriter, Remington dry shaver, tea...)
Nellie Bly, around the world in 72 days (Mumm champagne, accordion, silk waterproof wrap, dark gloves...)

Описание: You can't change the past, but you can learn from it if you are willing to open your eyes to the deeper meaning of each story you're holding onto.
Andi Franklin was eight years into her happily ever after when her husband literally shook her world with four little words: "You never initiate sex." Tormented by his statement, she began reflecting on her marriage and life, determined to figure out how she got there - there being a happily married woman who loved her husband AND intimacy, yet somehow couldn't initiate sex. Soon, Andi would begin digging into her past, literally unpacking moments and traumas that she unknowingly had allowed to inform her present. And through this process, she learned that by unpacking these moments collected throughout a lifetime, it's easy to see the full spectrum of impact they have had and begin to move forward. In Love Unpacked, Andi examines issues of abandonment, shame, grief, and anger among others. Through her own stories, she teaches readers that to find true self-acceptance, happiness, and love, you don't need to backpack through the wilderness, travel the world, sell all of your belongings, join a nudist survival colony, or anything quite so dramatic. The greatest quest of your existence lies in an overflowing bag at your feet, waiting for you to unlock its mysteries and treasures. Love, Unpacked is a raw, inspirational memoir of one woman's journey through loss, pain, and the struggle for self-acceptance. With unflinching honesty, wry humor, and a sprinkle of swear words, Andi Franklin unpacks her own stories, confronts her past, and finds her way to unconditional love.
