1.Hawaii The Big Island Revealed; The Ultimate GuidebookHawaii The Big Island Revealed; The Ultimate Guidebook
from Wizard Publications

Customer Review:
I compared it with three other guidebooks, and this one is hands down by far the best. I also like his sense of humor, and his ability to give us foreigners a realistic taste of the local culture. It is down to earth, not superficial, and it must have been a lot of work to write this guide! The... more info

2.[no image]The Ultimate Kauai Guidebook
from Wizard Pubns

Customer Review:
This book is especially good for those that wish to hike and find secret places. We did some of this - too hot for us in October! We found that we were flipping through the book to put things together. I would prefer to have each side of the island in one section. Also, there aren't maps in many of... more info

3.In a Sunburned CountryIn a Sunburned Country
from Broadway

Customer Review:
I read this book before returning to Australia after forty years. I'd been there as an exchange student in 1967 and returned in 2008 with my grown son, for two weeks. I'd asked my son to read it to after I finished so that he'd have an idea what Australia was about. Bryson reports fairly and with... more info

5.Eyewitness Travel Guide to New ZealandEyewitness Travel Guide to New Zealand
from DK Travel

Customer Review:
It's a nice and thick travel review of all the places most people would want to visit, when going to New Zealand for the first time. The smallish pictures are good for giving you an overview of the history and sites, and all of the major cities are covered.

from Tantor Media
Price: $26.59

Customer Review:
This is one of the best written historical books that I have ever read. It reads more like a novel but is fully and carefully documented with historical notes. James Campbell tells a compelling story of the bitter fight between the American/Australian forces and the Japanese in a little known area... more info

7.We Die AloneWe Die Alone
from Canongate Books

Customer Review:
There are so many 5-star reviews that I thought I'd add a little detail so potential readers can know more about this before diving in like I did.
The story starts out as a plan for espionage againsts Nazis. This part is brief. The main guy, Jan, ends up almost dead and staggering into a home... more info

9.The Endurance: Shackleton s Legendary Antarctic ExpeditionThe Endurance: Shackleton's Legendary Antarctic Expedition
from Knopf
Price: $19.77

Customer Review:
A dear friend gave me this book when it was released and I became hooked on all things "Polar". The Frank Hurley photos alone are worth the price of the book. If you really want a treat, check out the photos under a magnifying glass---there are many interesting details missed with a casual glance.... more info

10.Shackleton s Way: Leadership Lessons from the Great Antarctic ExplorerShackleton's Way: Leadership Lessons from the Great Antarctic Explorer
from Viking Adult

Customer Review:
I was assigned this book as part of my Master's class in business, but as a military officer found it a great source of leadership principles on leading a small unit in remote, harsh environments when the tasks ahead seem impossible. Each chapter focuses on a different part of building and leading a... more info
