Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. A Jew on The Way is uniquely positioned to tap into two growing markets: the surging interest in the Camino de Santiago as a cultural phenomenon and Australia s booming appetite for memoirs. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, memoir sales in Australia have more than doubled over the last…decade, reflecting a strong and growing demand for personal stories. In a world increasingly divided by religious and cultural differences, this work offers a unique Jewish perspective on the Camino de Santiago, interwoven with the complexities of an interfaith relationship. As the Camino continues to grow in popularity, this book provides a timely and relevant exploration of how we can bridge these divides through shared experiences and empathy. It blends Jewish tradition with ancient pilgrimage, encounters with different characters, exploration of universal human experiences. At a time when Jewish identity is often framed in discussions of geopolitics and the war in Gaza, A Jew on The Way highlights Jewish wisdom rooted in peace, common humanity, and shared spiritual exploration. Photos are included. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The eighth book in the Grafton Everest series sees the hapless ex- President of the Republic of Australia, Dr Professor Grafton Everest, caught up in a web of international espionage and intrigue that he is hopelessly ill-equipped to handle.Abandoned to his own inadequate devices when his wife… Janet departs on a world tour, with his home invaded by his now broke daughter and son-in-law, Grafton accepts an assignment with the United Nations to investigate electoral fraud in Russia. The reason is not only to get out of the house; an old letter from his mother, addressed to someone in the Soviet Union fifty years ago, suggests that Grafton may not be the only child that he always thought he was. Grafton s mission to Moscow and his search for this mysterious sibling take him far from the Russian capital, deep into the icy wastes of Siberia and even deeper in a tangled conspiracy whose roots extend back to the Cold War and even as far back as the Russian Revolution.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Twenty years after his father s passing, Joe Reich stumbles upon a video interview that reveals astonishing truths his father never spoke about in life. In its haunting accounts, Reich learns that, only days after the German invasion of Poland in 1939, his father faced a firing squad and survi…ved. The horrors that followed left him utterly alone, yet anchored by a cryptic prophecy promising that he would reach old age in a distant land. Against all odds, he fulfilled that destiny. Drawing on extensive research and numerous consultations, Reich weaves a vivid portrait of his father: an extraordinary man, Holocaust survivor, and devoted family patriarch. More than a remarkable survivor s tale, this book explores the essential power of memory and the crucial lessons history imparts. Uplifting and profound, this is the story of conquering life s darkest trials through resilience, hope and relentless determination.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. In this memoir, John Mathews outlines the twists and turns of a career that spans six decades, culminating in his earning a Professorship at Macquarie University in Sydney. He discusses his career as an intellectual Odyssey, full of challenges and controversies and unexpected developments. He…outlines how he built on his PhD in London to act as advisor to unions in expanding the scope of their negotiations to encompass health and safety concerns; and how this led to interventions in debates over industrial and economic democracy. These real world concerns provided a platform for an academic career, documenting workplace reforms in Australia and national industrialisation initiatives in East Asia. He describes how his engagement with developmental business strategies led to a decade and more of interventions in greening of industry as the ultimate challenge. Mathews takes the reader on his Odyssey to relive the drama of the controversies and arguments that made his a fulfilling intellectual life.

Soft cover. Zustand: Good. 1st Edition. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Previous owner has signed inside pages. John Tully'sDark Clouds on the Mountain is a finely written detective story that carries its reader along with an intriguing plot, a gallery of memorable characters, and strange presentiments of evil. T…hrough this last quality, Tully reveals the old Hobart Town that still lies behind the modern Hobart. This gives the novel a dimension in time that does not detract from the immediacy of its portrayal of social, family and political disturbance in the contemporary world. Its fast-moving narrative takes us into the heart of a Tasmania as much embroiled in the contemporary globe as in its particular past. (publisher blurb).
