Reisgids The Battles of Arras - north | Pen and Sword publications
Reisgids The Battles of Arras - north | Pen and Sword publications
The First World War battlefields to the north of Arras - including Vimy Ridge - are among the most famous and most visited sites on the Western Front, rivalled only by those around Ypres and the Somme, and this clearly written, highly illustrated guide is the ideal introduction to them. Visitors can trace for themselves the course of each battle across the modern landscape and gain a fascinating insight into the nature of the fighting in the area - and the wider conflict across the Western Front - throughout the war. The book covers the key battles fought in the northern sector of the Arras front, including the 1917 Battle of Vimy Ridge and battles at Villers au Bois, Oppy Wood and Gavrelle. Expert guides Jon Cooksey and Jerry Murland have devised a series of routes that can be walked, biked or driven, explaining the fighting that occurred at each place in vivid detail.

Reisverhaal The Way of the 88 Temples | Robert Sibley
Reisverhaal The Way of the 88 Temples | Robert Sibley
Shikoku eiland, de pelgrimsroute van 1400 kilometer en 88 tempels. Compelled to seek something more than what modern society has to offer, Robert Sibley turned to an ancient setting for help in recovering what has been lost. The Henro Michi is one of the oldest and most famous pilgrimage routes in Japan. It consists of a circuit of eighty-eight temples around the perimeter of Shikoku, the smallest of Japan's four main islands. Every henro, or pilgrim, is said to follow in the footsteps of Kōbō Daishi, the ninth-century ascetic who founded the Shingon sect of Buddhism. Over the course of two months, the author walked this 1,400-kilometer route (roughly 870 miles), visiting the sacred sites and performing their prescribed rituals.Although himself a gaijin, or foreigner, Sibley saw no other pilgrim on the trail who was not Japanese. Some of the people he met became not only close companions but also ardent teachers of the language and culture. These fellow pilgrims’ own stories add to the…

The Hobbit Replica 1/1 The Sword of Bard the Bowman
The Hobbit Replica 1/1 The Sword of Bard the Bowman
Bard the Bowman was the heir of Girion, the last Lord of Dale, and one of the most proficient archers of men. He wielded Girion's ancient sword and was keeper of the last Black Arrow of Dale, which he used to slay the great dragon Smaug during the attack on Lake-town. Bard then fought alongside the elves and dwarves against the armies of Azog in the Battle of the Five Armies. He rallied his forces to lead the main defense against the orcs and trolls in the ruins of ancient Dale, bravely wielding his sword in victory over the enemy. The Sword of Bard the Bowman features a hilt bearing design motifs of ancient Dale, with a pommel in the shape of twin bird heads and a leather wrapped grip embossed with an overlapping scaled feather pattern. The blade is adorned with engraved grooves and a rune etching.
