Présentation de l'éditeur :
WHO...was the only modern leader to return fire during an assassination attempt? WHY...is kissing on trains banned in France? WHICH...island used to be home to a crocodile that jumped on its prey from trees? WHAT...was the first song to be sung in Outer Space? With a reasonable claim to be the most useful book ever written, John Oldale's Who, or Why, or Which, or What...? is a cornucopia of history, travel, politics, wildlife, language - indeed, a celebration of everything which makes this planet so fascinating. With an entry for every country, from the impenetrably immense (China) to the most completely marginal (San Marino - although it has stiff competition), this beautifully illustrated book is jammed with the most peculiar, fascinating and surprising information. Whether you are interested in man-eating catfishes, the use of wizards to influence archery contests or the location of the Land of Hum, this is the book for you.
Biographie de l'auteur :
Dr John Oldale is a scientist by training, a lawyer by profession and an explorer by passion. His life can be summarized as a four-decade struggle between sound career advice and following his heart. He is a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society, speaks five languages and has travelled some half a million miles, visiting over ninety countries. He has outrun knife-wielding brigands (twice), been rescued from a sub-Antarctic beach, faced down a charging buffalo and breakfasted on thirty-seven sorts of mushroom in a Korean monastery. He lives with his family in a former village pub in Hampshire.
