A Song for Planet Earth

Oxford University Press

Antarctica is the world's coldest, windiest, driest, wildest, cleanest, emptiest and quietest continent. Humans have never been more than visitors there, and only since the last century. Antarctica is the one place on our planet where international co-operation has succeeded - so far. But the Antarctica Treaty is due for renegotiation and the continents valuable mineral resources make it a very vulnerable 10% of the world's land mass. Historical, scientific and descriptive accounts of the past, present and future of the last wilderness on Earth combine to make this a topical book. Meredith Hooper is a qualified historian who has been on the editorial board of "The Round Table" (The Commonwealth Journal of International Affairs) from 1988 and is a member of the Association of British Science Writers.

Race to the Pole

Until the early years of the 20th century, the vast continent of Antarctica was barely discovered. All that changed, when Scott, Shackleton, and Amundsen set out to solve the last great unsolved geographical mystery and find the South Pole. This book tells the amazing tale of their expeditions into the unknown. It is high adventure, dramatic and tense, with three contrasting characters - Scott, the traditional British hero, whose lack of preparation had tragic results; Shackleton (born in County Kildare) a more modern leader, refusing to sacrifice his men's lives to the cause; Amundsen, Norwegian and the true professional whose attention to detail saw him through. All the great themes are here - courage, hardship, agonising decisions, leadership, suffering and tragic death. This book comes with stunning photographs taken during the expeditions.

This book tells the story of precious gold, created when stars explode, mined in Ancient Egypt, made into a mummy mask, and buried with a king. But the tomb is robbed and the mask is stolen—and so the gold changes hands and changes shape as centuries pass. It's a prize at the Colosseum in Rome, a gift for Queen Elizabeth I at Nonesuch Palace, counterfeit coins in a sea captain's chest, a toothpick holder at Versailles, gold buttons on a waistcoat bound for Australia, and a necklace in modern New York. Stephen Biesty's richly detailed illustrations and Meredith Hooper's resonant text together tell the awe-inspiring story of the gold and its owners, of hopes and dreams, courage and deceit, romance and adventure.
