De niño huyó del seminario y diez años después de la Academia Naval. En ese momento se embarca como polizonte en Marsella y viaja al Extremo Oriente, para iniciar una vuelta al mundo y una vida irrepetible en el siglo XXI. Fue asistente de un arqueólogo alemán en el Cuzco; persiguió el tesoro de los Khmer en Angkor Wat, Cambodia; extrajo perlas en zonas prohibidas de Sarawak del Borneo; trabajó en el negocio del tungsteno en la bahía de Hudson; y finalmente al final de los años 40 del siglo pasado, buscó diamantes en la Amazonía venezolana.

Jackie was an ordinary American woman whose life changed after a blind date with rugged Antarctic explorer Finn Ronne. After marrying, they began planning the 1946-1948 Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition. Her participation was not welcomed by the expedition team of red-blooded males eager to prove themselves in the frozen, hostile environment of Antarctica.

In the 19th century, the British and Russian empires were engaged in bitter rivalry for the acquisition of Southern Asian. Although India was the ultimate prize, most of the intrigue and action took place along its northern frontier in Afghanistan, Turkestan, and Tibet. Mapping the region and gaining knowledge of the enemy were crucial to the interests of both sides.

Once we got to the Island, the view of all the different types of trees and plants was nothing like we had ever seen before. Our excitement, which had not dissipated since we left for the trip the day before, grew even more after stepping onto the lush beaches. We knew that this trip was going to be one of the most memorable trips we would ever go on. The funny thing was, we had no clue how right we really were.

"Det er en myte, at solen altid skinner i Provence, som den nobelprisbelønnede digter Fréderic Mistral kaldte for solens rige. Det er en myte, at der ikke kan falde sne i et subtropisk klima, og at man på disse breddegrader ikke risikerer at opleve en kulde, som bider i kinder og næse. Hvis man vil elske Provence, denne mangfoldige sydfranske provins, må man lære også at elske eller i det mindste tolerere et klima, som undertiden kan være mere omskifteligt og lunefuldt, end man forestiller sig.

"Jeg har valgt at skrive om de af mine rejser, som har haft med nogle af verdenshistoriens (og pressehistoriens) mysterier at gøre, store såvel som små. Vi drages mod det ukendte, mod det mystiske, som ulve efter bytte. Havde man fortalt mig, at jeg skulle få mulighed for at undersøge disse og andre mysterier på stederne, hvor de havde udspillet sig, ville det have forekommet mig lige så usandsynligt, som at menneskene nogensinde skulle kunne lande på månen.

"Vi sneg os over til det centrale tempel, hvor vi fandt tunneller, der var gravet ind under anlægget. Med kroppen klemt ned i et hul, hvor blodtørstige vampyrflagermus fløj rundt om mine ben, var vi nær blevet opdaget, da jeg var nødt til at råbe efter hjælp." I 1986 og 1988 drog Christian Lygum Christensen som leder af ekspeditioner ind i Guatemalas jungleområder for at udforske Mayaindianernes tempelbyer. Efter hårde strabadser fandt man frem til hidtil ukendte tempelbyer og mayagrotter.

Den berejste forfatter Lis Andersen havde egentlig ingen planer om at besøge Færøerne.

Gennem årene kom hun i kontakt med alle lag i det indiske samfund. I denne bog giver hun et unikt indblik i det 20. århundredets Indien, som de færreste danskere havde førstehåndsadgang til dengang.

My own long experience of African hunting told me at once that every word in this thrilling narrative was absolutely true. Nay more: I knew that the author had told his story in a most modest manner, laying but little stress on the dangers he had run when sitting up at nights to try and compass the death of the terrible man-eaters, especially on that one occasion when whilst watching from a very light scaffolding, supported only by four rickety poles, he was himself stalked by one of the dread beasts.

In drei Vorträgen berichtet er u. a. vom Everest und Nanga Parbat, der Wüste Gobi und seinen Reisen in die Polarregionen. Diese Hörbuch-Sammlung weiß zu unterhalten und zu informieren, eine gelungene Mischung.

Most people would regard it as irresponsible madness for a father to take his 17-year-old son, riding old and somewhat worn-out XT500 motorcycles, on a four-month ride across Africa. But Lawrence Bansby did. Lawrence and his son Gareth set off on their old but bulletproof XT500s with a handful of spare parts, very little money, and the three Michelin maps that cover Africa. The plan was to travel north from their home in Natal, South Africa, then west through Zaire, the Central African Republic, Nigeria, Niger, and, finally, across the Sahara through Algeria, but it was not to be.
