Tom Crean era el indestructible hijo de un granjero de Kerry que navegó en tres grandes expediciones a la desconocida Antártida.

Fue uno de los ultimos en ver con vida a Scott a pocos kilometros del Polo en 1912.Crean estuvo en el centro de los acontecimientos historicos de la epica expedicion Endurance de Shackleton, que incluyo la travesia de 1.200 km en barco abierto y la desesperada marcha a traves de las montañas y los glaciares de Georgia del Sur para rescatar a los camaradas abandonados.Tras su regreso a Irlanda no volvio a hablar de sus hazañas, llevandose su increible historia a la tumba... hasta la publicacion de Un heroe olvidado, la biografia que desenterro su historia y lo situo con todo derecho entre los anales de los grandes exploradores.

Tom Crean era el indestructible hijo de un granjero de Kerry que navegó en tres grandes expediciones a la desconocida Antártida hace más de un siglo.

El conquistador del Everest, Sir Edmund Hillary, dijo de el que "era un gran hombre de inmensa fuerza y resistencia, que temia a muy pocas cosas".Crean fue uno de los ultimos en ver con vida a Scott a pocos kilometros del Polo en 1912. Su asombrosa caminata de 56 km para salvar la vida del teniente Evans es el mejor acto de heroismo individual de la historia de la exploracion. Regreso al hielo meses despues para enterrar a Scott. Crean estuvo en el centro de los acontecimientos historicos de la epica expedicion Endurance de Shackleton, que incluyo la travesia de 1.200 km en barco abierto y la desesperada marcha a traves de las montañas y los glaciares de Georgia del Sur para rescatar a los camaradas abandonados.Pero Tom Crean regreso a Irlanda durante la Guerra de la Independencia y nunca volvio a hablar de sus hazañas, llevandose su increible historia a la tumba... hasta la publicacion de Un heroe olvidado, la biografia que desenterro su historia y lo situo con todo derecho entre los anales de los grandes exploradores.

Most passengers were over the age of 65.There was concern about the virus in the news but that was oceans away. Escaping to sea at the ends of the earth for a few weeks seemed like it might be a good option. The cruise line had said the voyage would go ahead as scheduled and it would be safe. Within days, people aboard the Zaandam began to fall sick. The worlds ports shut down. Zaandam became a top story on the news and was denied safe harbour everywhere. With only two doctors aboard and few medical supplies to test for or treat Covid-19, and with dwindling food and water, the ship wandered the oceans on an unthinkable journey.Cabin Fever is a riveting narrative thriller, taking readers behind the scenes of the ships complex workings, and below decks into the personal lives of passengers and crew who were caught unprepared for the deadly ordeal that lay ahead. It is a story layered with moments of peril, perseverance and kindness. A remarkable tale that is filled with individual acts of heroism and the struggles and the tragedies of the crew and passengers.

Fascinating analysis Nigel West; Grippingly told, authoritativeMail on Sunday; Meticulously researched...a remarkably good read John Brennan, former CIA Director; Excellent...a detailed, highly professional account Sir John Scarlett, former MI6 Chief The Special Relationship between America and Britain is feted by politicians on both sides of the Atlantic when it suits their purpose and just as frequently dismissed as a myth, not least by the media, which announces its supposed death on a regular basis. Yet the simple truth is that the two countries are bound together more closely than either is to any other ally. In The Real Special Relationship, Michael Smith reveals how it all began, when a top-secret visit by four American codebreakers to Bletchley Park in February 1941 - ten months before the US entered the Second World War - marked the start of a close collaboration between the two nations that endures to this day. Once the war was over, and the Cold War began, both sides recognised that the way they had worked together to decode German and Japanese ciphers could now be used to counter the Soviet threat. Despite occasional political conflict and public disputes between the two nations, such as during the Suez crisis, behind the scenes intelligence sharing continued uninterrupted, right up to the recent Russian invasion of Ukraine. Smith, the bestselling author of Station X and having himself served in British military intelligence, brings together a fascinating range of characters, from Winston Churchill and Ian Fleming to Kim Philby and Edward Snowden, who have helped shape the security of our two nations. Supported by in-depth interviews and an excellent range of personal contacts, he takes the reader into the mysterious workings of MI6, the CIA and all those who work to keep us safe.
