Book excerpt: Voyage of a Lifetime is the authentic account of a sea voyage from Southampton, England, to Fremantle in Western Australia, as told to the author by Don Caisley. The voyage was undertaken by a truck driver and his family, none of whom had any previous experience of sailing, navigation or the sea. The man, Donald Caisley, purchased an old North Sea trawler - more commonly known as an MFV or Motor Fishing vessel, and spent a full year renovating and fitting it out. During which time he sold his one man trucking business and his house and contents. Don, his Italian born wife Lena, eldest son Peter and young son Jonathan set out from Southampton on May 18th 1973, and arrived in Fremantle one year later - almost to the day, after more excitement and adventure than most people would experience in a lifetime. The voyage took them first to Falmouth, via Weymouth and Brixham, for a trial run of the crew and the trawler. From Falmouth to Oporto in Portugal they sailed, then to Gibraltar, Casablanca and the Canary Islands. Across the Atlantic Ocean to Trinidad, Grenada and on to La Guaira in Venezuela, then to Cartagena in Colombia, through the Panama Canal to Esmereldas in Equador. From Esmereldas to the Galapagos Islands, then to the South Sea islands of Marquesas, Tahiti and Raratonga and on to Auckland, New Zealand. The first Australian landfall was at Eden in New South Wales, then around the coast of Australia to Queenscliff, Portland, Albany and finally, their destination in Fremantle. Through fair weather and storms they sailed on - although many people with knowledge of the sea and sailing had said they were crazy and would never complete the voyage. The family's trust in Don never wavered, although disaster came very close to ending the venture on several occasions. After their arrival in Western Australia, the trawler was sold and the family settled down in Perth. Don is now an Australian citizen and although he swears he would never make such a voyage again, is glad he came to Australia the way he did.

Download or read book America Before written by Graham Hancock and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2019-04-23 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Instant New York Times Bestseller! Was an advanced civilization lost to history in the global cataclysm that ended the last Ice Age? Graham Hancock, the internationally bestselling author, has made it his life's work to find out--and in America Before, he draws on the latest archaeological and DNA evidence to bring his quest to a stunning conclusion. We’ve been taught that North and South America were empty of humans until around 13,000 years ago – amongst the last great landmasses on earth to have been settled by our ancestors. But new discoveries have radically reshaped this long-established picture and we know now that the Americas were first peopled more than 130,000 years ago – many tens of thousands of years before human settlements became established elsewhere. Hancock's research takes us on a series of journeys and encounters with the scientists responsible for the recent extraordinary breakthroughs. In the process, from the Mississippi Valley to the Amazon rainforest, he reveals that ancient "New World" cultures share a legacy of advanced scientific knowledge and sophisticated spiritual beliefs with supposedly unconnected "Old World" cultures. Have archaeologists focused for too long only on the "Old World" in their search for the origins of civilization while failing to consider the revolutionary possibility that those origins might in fact be found in the "New World"? America Before: The Key to Earth's Lost Civilization is the culmination of everything that millions of readers have loved in Hancock's body of work over the past decades, namely a mind-dilating exploration of the mysteries of the past, amazing archaeological discoveries and profound implications for how we lead our lives today.
