Download or read book Vroom by the Sea written by Peter Moore and published by Random House Australia. This book was released on 2007 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Racy, loud and an incorrigible show-off, he was the epitome of Italian machismo. He showed Peter, his less flamboyant companion, another side of Italy tourists rarely see. His name was Marcello and like Sophia from Vroom With a View he was a Vespa. Two years after riding from Milan to Rome in search of la dolce vita, Peter Moore's life has changed dramatically. He has married Sally and she is pregnant with their first child. With fatherhood only five months away Peter reacted the way some men facing nappies and travel systems do, he panicked. But man, Peter sure found an understanding wife. Sally gave him the opportunity to go off, just this once more, to be irresponsible. For Peter this was a wild, final, two-stroke powered fling - with permission - through some of the most beautiful coastal scenery in the world on a Vespa with white go-fast stripes that brought a smile to peoples' faces everywhere it went. From the wild, untouched corners of Sardinia and Sicily to the faded fifties glamour of the Amalfi coast, it is a journey that reveals Italy's obsession with the sea - and getting a great tan. Like Vroom With a View this is another laugh-out-loud whilst grinding your teeth with jealousy travel memoir and they can sell its go-fast stripes off.

Download or read book Swahili for the Broken hearted written by Peter Moore and published by Random House. This book was released on 2003 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Question: What do you do when you're dumped by the Girl Next Door? Answer: Throw yourself into another madcap adventure and travel from Cape Town to Cairo... A week after breaking up with the GND (his travelling companion through Central America) Peter Moore heads off to Africa to lose himself for a while. In the grand tradition of 19th-century scoundrelas, explorers and romantics, Africa strikes him as the ideal place to find solitude and anonymity in the face of a personal crisis. What follows is Peter's journey from one end of the Dark Continent to the other. Travelling the fabled Cape Town to Cairo route by any means of transport he can blag (or if he must, pay) his way onto, it's an epic trek that sees our intrepid Antipodean experience everything from the southernmost city in Africa to the Pyramids, vast game parks and thundering falls, cosmopolitan cities and tiny villages as he journeys through the very heart of Africa. And travelling on his own, it's inevitable that Peter falls in with a motley cast of characters and has a myriad misadventures: including coming face to face with a wild Hyena with very bad breath, crossing the treacherous Sani Pass, the highest in Africa, narrowly escaping a riot by hiding in a coffin shop, saving oil-covered Penguins in South Africa, acting as an extra in a WW2 epic, not to mention dodging 20,000 single woman trying to catch the eye of the king of Swaziland during the annual Reed Dance. And then there was the time when he was kicked out of Robert Mugabe's birthday bash at gunpoint...
Download or read book The Authority of Law in the Hebrew Bible and Early Judaism written by Jonathan Vroom and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-09-11 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Authority of Law in the Hebrew Bible and Early Judaism, Vroom identifies a development in the authority of written law that took place in early Judaism. Ever since Assyriologists began to recognize that the Mesopotamian law collections did not function as law codes do today—as a source of binding obligation—scholars have grappled with the question of when the Pentateuchal legal corpora came to be treated as legally binding. Vroom draws from legal theory to provide a theoretical framework for understanding the nature of legal authority, and develops a methodology for identifying instances in which legal texts were treated as binding law by ancient interpreters. This method is applied to a selection of legal-interpretive texts: Ezra-Nehemiah, Temple Scroll, the Qumran rule texts, and the Samaritan Pentateuch.

Download or read book No Shitting in the Toilet written by Peter Moore and published by Random House Australia. This book was released on 2002 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Straight-talking, down-to-earth and totally irreverent, NO SHITTING IN THE TOILET examines cheap travel with clear eyes and hard realism. Based on the 1996 Travel Website of the Year (Net Magazine) NSITT is a celebration of all that's perverse about travel. It's about getting stranded and ripped off. It's about sitting in a tiny room counting cockroaches and feeling sorry for yourself. It's about being totally clueless, hopeless and pathetic... and loving every minute of it!In the four years since the original NSITT took the backpacker world by storm, many changes have revolutionised the travel experience - the internet and the trend towards short-break holidays being the most significant. The plummeting value of the dollar means more and more holiday-makers are venturing even further off the beaten track in search of affordable holidays - and thus deeper into the territory of NSITT, 'where you're more likely to find a cockroach on your pillow than a complimentary mint'. The three new chapters will keep Peter's fans - original groupies and new recruits alike - well-informed on all aspects of backpacker travel. Peter shares his secrets with chapters like- "Top 10 horrific bus rides", "Top 10 big nights out" and "Top 10 travel ailments". NSITT is the perfect antidote to vaseline-lensed accounts of travel. Peter fixes a clear and unromantic eye on the backpacker experience and tells it like it really is - and how we all (ultimately) love it to be! After all, who dines out on smooth-sailing experiences? It's the disasters that get the laughs - and create the memories.
