Kiwis Might Fly: A New Zealand Adventure
ISBN: 9780385339940 / Angielski / Miękka / 309 str. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

ISBN: 9781411653016 / Angielski / Miękka / 332 str. Going Bush in the Long White Cloud is a hilarious tale of a man and his van travelling around New Zealand, or the Land of the Long White Cloud, as it is called in Maori.

If you are currently travelling around NZ, you will find it easy to relate what you see and do...

Puluwat Atoll in Micronesia, with a population of only a few hundred proud seafaring people, can fulfill anyone's romantic daydream of the South Seas. Thomas Gladwin has written a beautiful and perceptive book which describes the complex navigational systems of the Puluwat natives, yet has done so principally to provide new insights into the effects of poverty in Western cultures. The cognitive system which enables the Puluwatans to sail their canoes without instruments over trackless expanses of the Pacific Ocean is sophisticated and complex, yet the Puluwat native would score low...
