Spanish Gold - Hoofbeats Across My Heart


Book Description

Spanish Gold is a charming novel that follows in the hoof-prints of a very special Spanish horse on his journey through life, through good times and bad.These memoirs follow Cantinero's journey from the beginning of his life in the beautiful marshland of Spain's Doñana National Park, to Germany, England and then Cyprus. Cantinero's words weave a story upon life's tapestry; teach us the suffering that horse-kind can endure at man's hand, and yet also shows us the good that can be achieved through selfless acts of kindness. This noble horse became an icon that stole into many people's hearts, helped them to achieve their dreams and changed their lives. He was a great teacher and a true soul-companion, as well as being one of the most majestic and beautiful stallions to walk this earth. Dancer, heart-thief, courageous friend, a soul of fire, a leader and a gentle diplomat. In these memories, is he honoured.

Exploration Fawcett


Book Description

The inspiration for the major motion picture "The Lost City of Z," mystic and legendary British explorer Colonel Percy Harrison Fawcett spent 10 years wandering the forests and death-filled rivers of Brazil in search of a fabled lost city. Finally, convinced that he had discovered the location, he set out for the last time toward destination “Z” in 1925, never to be heard from again.This thrilling and mysterious account of Fawcett’s ten years of travels in deadly jungles and forests in search of a secret city was compiled by his younger son, Fawcett's companion on his journeys, from manuscripts, letters, and logbooks. An international sensation when it was first published in 1953, Exploration Fawcett was praised by the likes of Graham Greene and Harold Nicolson, and found its way to Ernest Hemingway's bookshelf. Reckless and inspired, full of fortitude and doom, this is a book to rival Heart of Darkness, except that the harrowing accounts described in its pages are completely true. To this day, Colonel Fawcett's disappearance remains a great mystery.
