France
In the summer of 1995 we made an epic 2000 mile journey to the Alps and back, keeping to the high passes that border Italy and Switzerland. It was soon after I'd passed my test and bought a motor bike, a 1000cc BMW police bike. We travelled through Burgundy on minor roads down the Yonne Valley from Auxerre to Nolay, where we stayed in a friend's house both on the journey out and back. From Besan癟on we rode through Switzerland over the Forclaz Pass in pouring rain to beautiful sunshine in Chamonix. We skirted the Vanoise National Park, where we'd been the summer before and Mont Cenis where we'd skied the previous winter. Our goal was further south where we planned to walk in the Queyras. But to get there we had to cross the Petit Saint Bernard, walled in by 3 metre snow drifts, the Col de l'Iseran, Mont Cenis and the Col d'Izoard. On reaching the Queyras we met a young man called Michel who invited us to stay at his family home in L'Eychaillon, What we didn't realise, when we agreed to follow him on his motorbike, was that his home was high up above the valley and the only way there was up a switch back dirt road. We left the bike there and went off walking on a mini tour of the Queyras, staying in delightful mountain refuges and dining properly in the French way. We had to race back for a friend's wedding covering 550 miles on the last day, but nevertheless found time to sample the Ecrins national Park and go white water rafting near Brian癟on. It was a great adventure.
France
We had tried twice before to climb Mont Blanc - with Scharlie in 1994 and with my Italian friend Dimitri in 1996. This time I didn't want to fail again and had asked my friend Roger Mear, a distinguished climber and expeditioner and professional mountain guide, to "guide" me up the mountain. The plan was to spend a few days climbing with Scharlie to get fit and acclimatise before joining Roger. Cathy, Scharlie's friend from Cambridge who ran the Cambridge Festival, decided she'd join us and accompany Scharlie on part of the Tour de Mont Blanc while Roger and Steve were climbing. Despite rain and mist, and Scharlie's boots giving out on our way to do a route on the Aiguille du Peigne, we managed a couple of good training routes. Steve and Roger had a good day on a training route on Mont Blanc du Tacul before attempting Mont Blanc via Mont Maudit. Unfortunately we were beaten back by bad weather. Rather than repeat the same route Roger decided we could reach Mont Blanc via the blunt snow ridge of the D繫mes de Miage. Unlike other standard ways, we had this route to ourselves, which was delightful. Meanwhile, Scharlie and Cathy three legs of the Tour de Mont Blanc from Les Contamines to Courmayeur. The journal also include photos from Steve's previous climbing trip to Chamonix with a party of Italian climbers in 1996.

Travels in an Upside-Down World
This is a book about discovering China from both historical and personal perspectives. It covers a five-year- period from 1984, when China's modernizations were just taking hold, to 1989 and the student-led Tiananmen protest that culminated in a vicious crackdown and a draconian aftermath. During this time the author taught at a major university of China's Ministry of Public Security in Beijing and worked as a journalist for China's top media outlets, also in Beijing. The book examines aspects of both China's educational system and its approach to covering the news. It contains accounts of travels to all parts of the country, sometimes on the author's own, sometimes with friends and colleagues, and sometimes with his two teenaged daughters joining him from Canada. Featured also is a story of the author and his daughter Katharine being chosen for movie parts shot on location in a remote region of the country, as well as trips with his daughters to other countries, one crossing Asia on the Trans-Siberian Railway and another climbing Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest mountain. In his book, the author says every day was an epiphany. Often the result was beyond expectation. The sum effect of his varied experiences in an upside-down world was to turn his own world upside-down, too.

To the Farthest Rock
In 1952, at the age of twenty-seven, Mohan Rakesh undertook a journey to south India, travelling by bus, train and steamer along the western coast from Bombay to Kanyakumari. Young and ardent, he dreamt of the wide expanse of sea that would make up for a childhood spent in Amritsar's narrow lanes, and had visions of comely guides who would look kindly upon his wandering. But once he set out from Delhi on a train to Bombay, his visions slipped away and complex reality took over. To the Farthest Rock is a remarkable account of the hope and despair that characterized post-Independence India. Rakesh had only published a few short stories when he quit a teaching job in Shimla in order to travel, but readers who know his later work will recognize his skill with portraits of people and his exceptional ability to render fluctuations of feeling. Set against the verdant coastal landscape of Goa and Kerala, this absorbing travelogue is a fine introduction to the mind of one of Hindi's greatest novelists and playwrights.
