Winter in Yellowstone National Park is a powerful and enchanting season, marked by super-heated water erupting into frigid air and wildlife struggling for survival amid the snow. Photographer Tom Murphy has uniquely captured this wilderness, skiing deep into the backcountry with heavy camera gear, a resilience to the cold, and an artist’s eye. His work reveals a majestic landscape where clean, clear air allows a wolf’s howl to echo for miles. In "Silence & Yellowstone’s Winter Wilderness," 130 stunning photographs showcase the splendor and intensity of Yellowstone's harsh winter. Through these images, we gain insight into the lives of wildlife enduring the cold, feel the inspiring power of an untamed landscape, and appreciate nature’s beauty in both grand and subtle forms. Murphy’s thoughtful captions enhance the experience, allowing us to smile at a fox hunting for a mouse, understand the stoic presence of bison in geothermal steam, and marvel at fleeting moments of light that transform ordinary scenes into breathtaking vistas. As noted by author Tim Cahill in his foreword, Murphy’s work reflects a deep passion and knowledge, making these photographs not only visually stunning but also wise and insightful.

Tim Cahill has clambered up Mount Roraima in the Guyana highlands, searching for the site of Arthur Conan Doyle's Lost World. He's dined on baked turtle lung in the desolate northeast of Australia and harvested poisonous sea snakes in the Philippines. He's watched a wrestling match between a shark and an "underwater zombie" during a horror movie shoot off the coast of Mexico. In this collection of adventure travel writing, Tim Cahill writes about these close encounters, giving new meaning to the expression "going to extremes". He also briefs us on gorilla etiquette, porcupine vendettas, and the loathsome fate awaiting those who disturb ruins in the jungles

"In 'HOLD THE ENLIGHTENMENT', one of America's favourite and funniest adventure writer returns with his most entertaining collection of essays yet as he travels the globe and faces down challenges that are animal, topographical - and human. 'HOLD THE ENLIGHTENMENT' takes Cahill to sites as far-flung as Saharan salt mines, the Congolese jungle, and Hanford, Washington, home of the largest toxic waste dump in the Western Hemisphere. With trademark wit and insight, Cahill describes stalking the legendary Caspian tiger in the mountains bordering Iraq, slogging through a pitch-black Australian Eucalyptus forest to find the nocturnal platypus, diving with great white sharks in South Africa, staving off enlightenment at a yoga retreat in Negril, Jamaica, and much, much more. In these essays, vivid and masterly storytelling combine with outrageously sly humour and jolts of real emotion to show one of the most popular journalists of our time at the peak of his game"
