Three hundred nautical miles from shore, I‘m cold and sick and afraid. I pray for reprieve. I long for solid ground. And I can‘t help but ask myself, What the hell was I thinking? When Sue Williams set sail for the North Atlantic, it wasn’t a mid-life crisis. She had no affinity for the sea. And she didn’t have an adventure-seeking bone in her body. In the wake of a perfect storm of personal events, it suddenly became clear: her sons were adults now; they needed freedom to figure things out for themselves; she had to get out of their way. And it was now or never for her husband, David, to realize his dream to cross an ocean. So she’d go too.Ready to Come About is the story of a mother’s improbable adventure on the high seas and her profound journey within, through which she grew to believe that there is no gift more precious than the liberty to chart one’s own course, and that risk is a good thing … sometimes, at least. - E-bokPDF, Engelska, 2019

Drought, flood, harrowing isolation and horrific accidents. . . the Australian outback is no place for a lady.

Alice admits she couldn''t tell a cow from a bull when she first went to live in the Outback.

''The Outback isn''t a place on a map; it''s a place in your heart. It''s an attitude, how you treat people, a way of behaving.

But to date, her focus has been on others'' lives.Now putting her bravest foot forward, Sue sets out to see our country as it really is, warts and all. She accepts every new challenge that comes her way, including pregnancy-testing cows at a remote property, joining a cattle drive across Queensland, visiting the deadliest town in Australia, and fronting up to a ferocious fighter in the last boxing tent in the world.It''s tough for a city slicker, but she won''t stop until she discovers what the ''real'' Outback is all about. - E-bokEngelska, 2013

From horse whispering to crocodile hunting to single-handedly changing an 80-kilo flat tyre on a road train in 40-degree heat…there is nothing these modern-day outback women can''t do.

Our former Miss World finds a new start in the bush; an adventurer crosses one of the world''s harshest deserts on camelback; a single mum becomes a truck driver to make ends meet and a former nurse takes over the famous Birdsville Hotel. This book is a tribute to the great Australian Outback from those who live and work at the heart of it.

This is the life story of Father Bob Maguire - a rare behind-the-scenes look at the much-loved ''people''s priest''. The enigmatic champion of the down-and-out was shaped by a lonely childhood in poor circumstances, an early priesthood that collided with the upheaval of Vatican 11 and working with the army during the Vietnam War. This is a lively portrait of the man behind the resilient social activist and popular media performer who refuses to be defeated by enforced retirement from the parish over which he presided for nearly forty years. Bob Maguire: ''Some people have called me a maverick or a larrikin or a renegade, or they say I''m plain mad. . .People will have to decide for themselves. But just one thing: Don''t ever make me a saint. Because that is something I''m most definitely not.'' Les Twentyman: ''People love him and hate him with a passion. But you don''t become a leader unless you''ve got that.''Carrie Bickmore: ''He''s one of the most genuine souls I know.'' Chief Justice Terry Higgins: ''His knowledge of street kids and his understanding of them is phenomenal.'' Neil Mitchell: ''He is a treasure, magnificent, unpredictable, passionate, entertaining and a little dangerous.'' Derryn Hinch: ''He''s an engaging old coot but I wonder how much is performance and how much is his real persona. People deify him but he has feet of clay.'' Eddie McGuire: ''Bob is a real doer. He always looks on the bright side of a tough world and gets stuck into the action and makes things happen.'' - E-bokEngelska, 2013

''Samantha Barlow doesn''t stand a chance. As she walks briskly past the start of Arthur Park on her left, she can''t see a dark figure slinking out of the shadows towards her. The first she knows of his presence is when she feels a blow, hard to the back of her head, delivered with such force, it actually dents her skull.''

The popular, confident young woman was left for dead, dragging herself to a lonely bus stop, desperate to stay alive for her two young children.

This is a brave family''s journey to recovery. - E-bokEngelska, 2016

‘I believe that nothing is impossible if you dare to dream, plan and take action. I’m an ordinary girl who simply refused to give up on a dream, and that’s all it takes to succeed in life.’Alyssa Azar is unstoppable. When she was just eight years old, she walked the gruelling Kokoda Track, the youngest person in the world to do so. At twelve she climbed the ten highest peaks in Australia. Two years later she touched the top of Mount Kilimanjaro. Now, at the age of nineteen, she has reached the roof of the world: the summit of Mount Everest. The Girl Who Climbed Everest is the inspiring story of how an ordinary girl from country Queensland worked towards ascending the world’s highest peak. Through passion, determination and immense hard work, and despite being turned back twice – once by a deadly avalanche and the second time by a devastating earthquake that nearly claimed her life – Alyssa is the youngest Australian to have achieved this extraordinary feat. She shares the thrills and heartbreaking disappointments on the road to reaching her goal, and explains how she finds the courage and motivation to keep going in the face of overwhelming danger and adversity. Above all, Alyssa’s story shows us that we can achieve anything if we dare to dream big. - Häftad, Engelska, 2022
