The author's first attempt a year earlier ended abruptly off the coast of Newfoundland when he had to be rescued. Kayak Across The Atlantic vividly describes the pain and discomfort he endured during his second attempt, encountering some of the worst weather for many years, and his sheer determination to succeed during the 76 days he was at sea.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49511573782801,"sku":"GOR002315122","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49537857454353,"sku":"GOR010139074","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50726954467601,"sku":"GOR002344232","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0954423348.jpg?v=1751450182"},{"product_id":"around-and-about-clay-country-cornwall-and-devon-1872-1924-a-glimpse-into-yester-book-peter-bray-9781871273106","title":"Around and About Clay Country Cornwall and Devon, 1872-1924: A Glimpse into Yesteryear","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49662904434961,"sku":"GOR003009136","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1871273102.jpg?v=1750802988"},{"product_id":"around-and-about-charlestown-a-glimpse-into-yesteryear-book-peter-bray-9781871273205","title":"Around and About Charlestown: A Glimpse into Yesteryear","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50407896252689,"sku":"GOR003009140","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/187127320X.jpg?v=1751412406"},{"product_id":"around-and-about-st-austell-1880-1930-a-glimpse-into-yesteryear-book-peter-bray-9781871273052","title":"Around and About St. Austell, 1880-1930: A Glimpse into Yesteryear","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51104540786961,"sku":"GOR014177219","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51115038671121,"sku":"GOR003009138","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1871273056.jpg?v=1750768653"},{"product_id":"communication-and-conflict-in-multiple-settings-book-peter-bray-9789004371255","title":"Communication and Conflict in Multiple Settings","description":"Communication decisively impacts upon all our lives. This inherent need to connect may either be soothing or painful, a source of intimate understanding or violent discord. Consequently, how it is brokered is challenging and often crucial in situations where those involved have quite different ways of being in and seeing the world. Good communication is equated with skills that intentionally facilitate change, the realisation of desirable outcomes and the improvement of human situations. Withdrawal of communication, or its intentional manipulation, provokes misunderstanding, mistrust, and precipitates the decline into disorder. This international collection of work specifically interrogates conflict as an essential outworking of communication, and suggests that understanding of communication's potency in contexts of conflict can directly influence reciprocally positive outcomes.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52680365277457,"sku":"NLS9789004371255","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9789004371255.jpg?v=1768557744"},{"product_id":"voices-of-illness-negotiating-meaning-and-identity-book-peter-bray-9789004390782","title":"Voices of Illness: Negotiating Meaning and Identity","description":"This book is a scholarly collection of interdisciplinary perspectives and practices that examine the positive potential of attending to the voices and stories of those who live and work with illness in real world settings. Its international contributors offer case studies and research projects illustrating how illness can disrupt, highlight and transform themes in personal narratives, forcing the creation of new biographies. As exercises in narrative development and autonomy, the evolving content and expression of illness stories are crucial to our understanding of the lived experience of those confronting life changes. The international contributors to this volume demonstrate the importance of hearing, understanding and effectively liberating voices impacted by illness and change.
