Theresa Maggio grew up in New Jersey, the grandaughter of Sicilian immigrants. Her first visit to Sicily in 1973 stirred a lifelong passion for the beautiful island. Using the ancestral village of Santa Margherita Belice as her base, she explored Sicily's most remote mountain settlements, where religious processions that consume entire villages for days on end still survive and the scars of an earthquake from years before have yet to heal. Whether writing about ancient traditions or delicious street food,Theresa Maggio transports the reader to a wholly unfamiliar world as she enters the hearts and heads of the Sicilians.

Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Against the backdrop of monumental change taking place in 1956 throughout the world, the cantonment of the British High Commission in Peshawar, Pakistan, remains a corner of traditional England, with all its nuances of snobbery and racism. The Jacksons working class origins ensure they are kept on the fringe of diplomatic life and, for their nine-year-old daughter, Ellie, growing up is a lonely, painful experience. Locked in a sterile marriage, her parents dissatisfaction with each other finds expression in their neglect of Ellie. Left increasingly to her own devices, Ellie withdraws, recording the hypocrisy and cruelties of adult behaviour in The History of Insects. Here, among her thoughts, she describes, when no one will believe her, the murder of a native man and a secret capable of destroying the English community. 310 pages. Quantity Available: 1.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Softback Review Edition. In 1913 an amateur fossil hunter and antiquarian named Charles Dawson found in a gravel pit in England parts of the skull of an entirely new species of pre-human. The discovery, soon known as Piltdown Man, caused headlines worldwide trumpeting the claim that the evolutionary "missing link" between ape and man had been found. In 1953, using advanced techniques for dating fossils, a team of English scientists dramatically exposed Piltdown Man as nothing more than an amazing fraud, an ingenious but undoubted forgery. In this book, the author tells the complete story of the astonishing hoax, and convincingly exposes the true culprit. A final chapter explains in detail exactly how the entire affair was managed, offering a precise description of the planting and discovery of each of the fraudulent specimens. Filled with vivid portraits of Edwardian personalities, based strictly on documentary evidence, this book is a thoroughly absorbing detective story in which one of history's greatest frauds is finally solved.

Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The story of one of the last great epic journeys of exploration made before WW1: Robert Falcon Scott's fateful journey to the South Pole. This is the story of a terrible journey in which five men died in the most appalling conditions; Robert Falcon Scott's polar expedition of 1910. A small British team raced against the Norwegians to be the first to the South Pole. After disappointing failure, these men began their return journey home; it was to be the last journey any of them would ever make. Since their deaths nearly a hundred years ago, their final days have been surrounded by myth and controversy - what really happened? Who was to blame? Did Scott doom his party to a slow, cold death by spurning the use of dogs? Robert Ryan brilliantly depicts the nobility of these men under extreme duress, the depths of despair to which they sunk, and the heights of heroism they scaled to try and overcome the seemingly impossible. 500 pages.
