1000 tulosta hakusanalla Helena Bester
This fully revised fourth edition of Bradt's St Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha remains the only guide to these three British Overseas Territories, tiny volcanic islands that are virtual specks in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and which thanks to the opening of a new airport in 2017 are more accessible than ever before. Rugged, volcanic and very remote, as Napoleon's place of exile following the Battle of Waterloo, St Helena has gained a notoriety that assures its place in the travel lexicon. This fully revised edition includes all the most recent information, from the latest details of how to get there to expanded practical information on the airport, more detail on several of the Post Box walks and the mountain bike trail, and more in-depth information about what to do and where to go in Ascension. Also covered are details of the 2021 Napoleon Bicentenary, plus dedicated sections on what to do in the islands' two gateway cities: 48 hours in Johannesburg and 48 hours in Cape Town. Wildlife enthusiasts, nature lovers, hikers, and travellers interested in history and heritage are all catered for. The endemic flora and fauna is one of the islands' chief attractions, with 1,000 species of birds observed on St Helena alone. Also covered are the inspiring Millennium Forest project, where visitors give something back by planting an endemic tree, and sea safaris for spotting the area's abundant marine life, including whale sharks, dolphins and humpback whales, as well as fish and seabirds. Boat trips, which can include snorkelling and diving, are increasingly popular. How to visit Jonathan the Tortoise is included, too: hatched circa 1832, he is the oldest living land animal on the planet. Despite increased accessibility, these three islands are likely to preserve their reputation amongst the most unspoiled destinations in the world. With Bradt's St Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha, be one of the intrepid few to visit.
Everyone has heard of St Helena, but nobody knows much about it. This suits most of its inhabitants just fine. Unfortunately it does not suit its remote rulers in London, who think it costs too much and ideally should be made to earn money for them. It is still a mini-colony in the time when these stories are set, complete with a Governor with feathers on his hat. The locals just want to get on with their lives. But money is short and many of them are forced to leave, sometimes forever. These stories are mostly a light-hearted look at life on this tiny island. They have an airport now, but these are tales of life in earlier times that will soon seem very remote, a peep into a way of life that will soon be forgotten. There are some marvellous local characters with all their problems and peccadilloes, the good and not-so-good officials sent out from London to try and run the place. There is also the unwanted official visitor when it is sensed that the remote control from afar is not as effective as it might be. And the assorted mercenaries, missionaries and misfits who briefly appear in their lives. As in all small places there are endless opportunities to scheme and manoeuvre to achieve their respective ends.
In a companion volume to his earlier books, Geoffrey Martin returns to St Helena, a small island made famous by Napoleon but largely unknown ever since. Here are more stories about the islanders and the other characters who have ended up here, whether sent by the United Kingdom to try and administer the island or just by fate. The islanders remain as keen as ever to maintain their own way of life and independence, and avoid the interference of their technical masters overseas. These are gentle and light hearted stories about the island and its inhabitants whether human or a giant tortoise named Jonathan. The author captures both the spirit and atmosphere of the place. Like revisiting an old friend this new collection will once again take you back to a very small island in the middle of a very large ocean.
Traces the impact of world events on St Helena's topography, ecology and human population, from the early 1500s to the present day. Since its discovery in the early 1500s, St Helena - though remotely situated - has repeatedly participated in events taking place on a world stage; evidence of those encounters is etched on the topography, ecology and human population of the island. This book examines the impacts of a century of casual but destructive visits from sailing ships of various nations followed by settlement by the East India Company; the fortification and population of the island by the Company, including the importation of an enslaved population; efforts to make it economically self-reliant; its employment a base for scientific observations from Edmond Halley to Joseph Hooker and beyond; its role as a prison-fortress from Napoleon to the twentieth century and as a base for anti-slavery patrols in the South Atlantic following the Abolition of Slavery; its decline since the end of the days of sail; measures taken to reconnect it with the modern world in terms of sea and air travel as well as electronic communication; and efforts to regain to some degree the ecological diversity of the virgin island setting.

Vihdoinkin Katri Helena kertoo elämäntarinansa itse.”Kaikkien lehtijuttujen, kauniisti valaistujen kuvien ja jo unohtamieni yksityiskohtien takaa nousee yksi kysymys ylitse muiden: kuka minä olen? Siihen haluan löytää vastauksen.”Katri Helenan matka itärajan pikkukylästä tanssilavoille, konserttisaleihin ja suomalaisten sydämiin on ollut uraauurtava. Kuudenkymmenen musiikkibisneksessä ja julkisuudessa vietetyn vuoden myötä jokaisella suomalaisella on mielikuva Katri Helenasta.Kirjailija Elina Hirvosen kirjoittamassa teoksessa Katri Helena kertoo tarinansa omasta näkökulmastaan ja omalla äänellään. Kuvia kumartamatta ja vaiettuja asioita kaihtamatta. Mitä laulaja on ajatellut silloin, kun omia ajatuksia ei ole voinut sanoa ääneen? Mikä on ollut elämässä tärkeää, ja kuka on Katri Helena?Elina Hirvonen (s. 1975) on palkittu kirjailija ja elokuvantekijä, jonka teoksia on käännetty yli kymmenelle kielelle.
