Wegenkaart - landkaart Africa Equatorial - Afrika midden | ITMB
Wegenkaart - landkaart Africa Equatorial - Afrika midden | ITMB
This is the third of our regional maps covering the African continent and covers the portion just south of Nigeria/Cameroun that, essentially, straddles the equator. The jungle-like western half has always been referred to as Equatorial Africa, which is a bit of a mis-nomer because Uganda and Kenya also straddle the equator. The area of coverage of this map is two-fold: to bring the western portion into our growing digital data base and to provide our first-ever ITM map of beautiful East Africa (the KUT countries, Rwanda, and Burundi). Unlike Michelin, that places what it calls Central and Southern Africa on to one large single-sided sheet, we have decided to divide the southern half of the African continent into three double-sided sheets at a better scale. This is the first one, covering Africa as far south as Zambia, with a bit of Zimbabwe. As with all of our regional African maps, this one focuses on road conditions, distances, urban areas, facilities, parks, and attractions.  Lege…

Reisverhaal Love of Country - A Hebridean Journey | Madeleine Bunting
Reisverhaal Love of Country - A Hebridean Journey | Madeleine Bunting
An extraordinary journey deep into the history and landscape of the Hebrides, exploring the islands' turbulent history, the spread of their influence, and how they shaped the nations of BritainThe Hebrides hold a remarkable place in the imaginations of Scotland and England. On the outer edge of the British Isles and facing the Atlantic Ocean, these iconic islands form part of Europe's boundary. Because of their unique position, they have been at the centre of a network of ancient shipping routes which has led to a history of cultures colliding and merging. Home to a long and rich Gaelic tradition, they have attracted saints and sinners, and artists and writers, inspiring awe and dread as well as deep attachment. Over six years, Madeleine Bunting travelled to the Hebrides, exploring their landscapes, histories and magnetic pull. With great sensitivity and perceptiveness, she delves into the meanings of home and belonging, which in these islands have been fraught with tragedy as well as…

Wegenkaart - landkaart Africa central and south - Afrika zuid en centraal | ITMB
Wegenkaart - landkaart Africa central and south - Afrika zuid en centraal | ITMB
This title is in our series of regional titles for Africa at 1:3,400,000 scale. All of Africa is available as a continental sheet at 1:5M scale and as regional titles at 1:3.8M and 1:3.4M, based on GIS data. This is a milestone for ITMB and the realization of a dream that began in 1993. However, the work is still only in its early stages. This map covers that portion of the continent that old Africa hands always referred to as 'central', meaning the Rhodesias and Nyasaland now known as Zambia, Malawi, and Zimbabwe.   By its shape, generous portions of the southern portions of DEM Congo, the eastern third of Angola, the northern half of Mozambique, and Botswana's Okavunga Delta are included on the one side. The second side covers South Africa, Lesotho, Swaziland, the rest of Botswana, and southern Namibia in great detail. This is an excellent map for anyone visiting the larger region of the southern third of Africa. As with our other regional titles, this is a work in progress. The nex…

Wegenkaart - landkaart Africa Southern - zuidelijk Afrika | ITMB
Wegenkaart - landkaart Africa Southern - zuidelijk Afrika | ITMB
met extra kaarten van Johannesburg - Kapstad - Victoria Falls - Okavango Delta   This map is the updated version of our previous map, which was called Southern Africa, covering the southernmost portion of Africa. It is also the most developed part of the continent, with the densest road network and number of urban areas on the continent. This edition was started a year ago and incorporates an innovative approach to data portrayal by essentially over-lapping our very detailed South Africa artwork over top of the southern Africa artwork. The result is a much more detailed regional map than was possible previously.   Legend Includes: Road by classification, Major Road, Highway, Railway, Ferry, Lake, River, National Park, Beach, Diving, World Heritage, Waterfall, Cave, Monument, Camping Site and much more...

Wegenkaart - landkaart Afrika Africa | ITMB
Een degelijke kaart met aanduidingen van o.a. nationale parken, vliegveld, benzinepomp, dirt-roads en kleine plattegrond van hoofdstad. Als overzichtskaart goed te gebruiken. Finally! This is the most innovative map we've published in years! This is the first proper digital data base map of Africa ever published that covers the entire continent from top to bottom and east to west.   The continent of Africa is fascinating. Whether on wishes to visit the continent or just learn more about it, a detailed map is vital, and a good map is hard to find! The first edition of our ITM Africa map sold out in less than two years. We have added a considerable amount of data to this edition of the map, particularly in the northwest portion. One has to be careful not to overload a continental map with too much information, or to show roads so prominently as to obscure too much the map, but one also has to have enough information to make the map useful, readable and attractive. We feel that this edit…

Wegenatlas Travel Atlas Africa West Route: from Tangier to Cape Town | ITMB
Wegenatlas Travel Atlas Africa West Route: from Tangier to Cape Town | ITMB
Handzame wegenatlas, formaat A5, van de hele route van Tanger naar Kaapstad langs de westelijke kant van Afrika. Naast de wegenkaarten bevat deze atlas ook een aantal centrumkaarten van de belangrijkste steden die je onderweg tegenkomt.  There are three routes one can follow on an overland expedition from Europe to Cape Town (or the reverse). Last year, ITMB published the eastern route, via Cairo and Sudan to Ethiopia and Kenya. This year, we are pleased to announce the publication of a more practical route to follow, via Tangier, Morocco, Mauritania, Senegal, Mali and Ghana, through the Congo to Uganda, and then south over a variety of options to Namibia and South Africa. The advantage of this route is that it avoids the conflict-ridden countries closest to infection from the extremist Islam movement. It also avoids the current difficulties of the central route through Algeria (the Hoggar route) and Niger. We do have to caution that all routes through Africa contain risks. Routes are…

Natuurgids First Field Guide to Animal Tracks of Southern Africa | Struik Nature
Natuurgids First Field Guide to Animal Tracks of Southern Africa | Struik Nature
Dit handzame gidsje is een goed hulpmiddel voor het spotten van de sporen van meest voorkomende dieren in zuidelijk Afrika. Met kleurenfoto's, tekeningen van pootafdrukken en kaartjes van leefgebieden. The First Field Guide to Animal Tracks of Southern Africa will help to decipher the more common tracks encountered in southern Africa. The animal's spoor may vary according to its age, mass, sex and condition. It may also have a unique way of walking or a particular habit that distinguishes it from other individuals of the same species. People today are often not familiar with the immense variety of animal life that surrounds them, simply because most animals are rarely seen. To a 'spoor conscious' tracker, however, animal tracks may reveal the activities of a multitude of animals. Leopards, for example, are very elusive and thus hardly ever seen. They have the uncanny ability to live near human settlements, often on the periphery of large cities. Finding leopard tracks in unexpected pl…

Productomschrijving

Plagues of locusts, drought and ebola. In Africa homosexuals are getting the blame for everything. It's open season. Homosexuality is called 'un-African', 'in direct conflict with its own distinctive culture', a 'western disease'. What's the motivation behind those leaders who are fighting to keep their continent 'morally pure'? There's another story. More and more African gays and lesbians are coming out of the closet. Equal rights activism has become a reality and a passionate debate is raging. Well-known personalities are speaking out. Anti-homosexual laws are biting the dust. Actions and reaction. Acceleration and obstruction. Shifting perspectives in a rapidly changing continent. What's the real situation? Where does the antipathy towards homosexuality come from? What's the role of religious fundamentalism? Does western interference help or hinder? Is Africa different or just the same? This book gives an illuminating insight into a world in which old and new, tradition and modernity, are colliding so uncompromisingly that the sparks have started to fly. It's unleashed a swathe of simmering tensions that has now engulfed the entire continent. Dispensing with all the platitudes and slogans, the authors uncover a conflict in which far more is at stake than just the rights of a minority.
