Sherpaene fra Nepal har vært avgjørende for klatreekspedisjoner til de høyeste fjellene i verden. Opprinnelig var det ren nød som tvang dem over snøgrensen og opp i gudenes rike, der de ifølge sin tro kan risikere å miste både dette og det neste livet. I dag er motivene flere.
Tidligere tiders koloniale forhold mellom herre og tjener er også jevnet ut, men vi rike betaler fortsatt for å utsette både sherpaene og oss selv for livsfare. Kan det som driver oss være vår egen indre frykt -ikke for gudenes vrede, og heller ikke for å miste livet, men meningen med det? Og like viktig: Hva er det som driver sherpaene?
Dette er blant spørsmålene Jon Gangdal forsøker å besvare. Gjennom et rikt historisk materiale og sine egne dyrekjøpte erfaringer med liv og død i høyden, løfter han fram sherpafolket fra Himalaya-klatringens skygge og kommer tett på deres spesielle livsvilkår og hverdag.

Great Railway Journeys in New Zealand and Australia is an absorbing description of 35 trips that highlight some of the most interesting, scenic and rewarding railway journeys in both countries. These include the renowned long-distance journeys, such as The Indian Pacific that takes travellers on a three-day trip from Perth to Sydney, and the The Northern Explorer in New Zealand's North Island that stretches from Wellington to Auckland, as well as those that traverse stunning scenery, such as New Zealand's TranzAlpine train or the Spirit of the Outback in Australia. There are also routes on which restored steam locomotives operate and other lines included for the wonder of their engineering.

Also included is New Zealands' Coastal Pacific that runs between Picton and Christchurch, now fully operational again since being shut in the aftermath of the 2016 earthquake. Trains are a great way to travel in both countries, taking you at ground level past superb scenery that often cannot be seen by any other means of transport. David Bowden's entertaining text describes the route, the major features of interest along the way and any special technical details about the locomotive or the track.
