The classic spiritual travelogue by one of Tibet’s best-known explorers, The Way of the White Clouds is the remarkable narrative of a pilgrimage which could not be made today. In 1948, Lama Anagarika Govinda made an unforgettable journey into Tibet before its invasion by the Chinese.

When Sylvain Tesson left the colorful yellow houses of the French Riveria for a ski trek across the Alps with his friend Daniel du Lac, a high-altitude mountain guide, he didn't know what exactly would await him. Over the course of four years, from 2018 to 2021, they ascended high into the Alps in winter, following the curve of the mountains from the Mediterranean to the Adriatic, entering into a white world entirely of snow, bitterly cold, and overlooked by an empty sky; only the effort of moving forward, one stride at a time, separated the days from one another.

An exemplary travelogue of danger and achievement by the Frenchwoman Madame Alexandra David-Neel of her 1923 expedition to Tibet, the fifth in her series of Asian travels and her personal recounting of her journey to Lhasa, Tibet's forbidden city.

Ce personnage d'un autre temps se nomme Henry Worsley. The White Darkness raconte son extraordinaire histoire. Celle d'un militaire britannique fasciné par l'exemple d'Ernest Shackleton (1874-1922) et par ses expéditions polaires ; un homme excentrique, généreux, d'une volonté exceptionnelle, qui réussira ce que Shackleton avait raté un siècle plus tôt : relier à pied une extrémité du continent à l'autre.

When Joe Patterson was surprised with the gift of a white German Shepherd puppy named Griffin, he had no idea of the adventure that awaited them.

This includes the Bigfoot 205 mile race, Tahoe 200 mile race, and the Moab 240 mile race. While trying to figure out how to train for these races, she decided to do a thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail and learned so much about herself and life, in general, along the way.
