    Only in the Philippines

    de Jay Maclean ...

  • Black Pearls and Red Tide

    de Jay Maclean ...
    The strange death of three young children in a small coastal village in far away Papua New Guinea in March 1972 did not rate a mention in the territory’s annual report that year to its Australian governors—let alone make a ripple in international ponds. Yet, it was an event of incredible proportions. It marked the end of a chain of knowledge that extended back more than 45,000 years; it heralded ... Leer más

  • Electric Angels and Pink Bikies

    The Expatriate Life

    de Jay Maclean ...
    Moving away from home, leaving the nest, could be the beginning of a voyage that ends in a faraway country we would not have even considered when we set out—until we got there and discovered its secrets, its culture, its undiscovered paradises.

  • Sometimes in Business Class

    de Jay Maclean ...
    Here is a perfect book for airplane and armchair travelers; an alternative view of airlines, flying and destinations. Many people fly around the world from meeting to meeting, soaking up wine and the attention of airline stewards and stewardesses, clocking up free mileage, and working out tax breaks or how to sock away their travel allowances.

  • Coach Class to the Americas

    de Jay Maclean ...
    Spanning the late 1980s to 2000, Coach Class to the Americas reveals aspects of life and times in the Americas that will probably not appear in history books—in short stories that take the reader from the lighter side of elections in Washington DC to fashions in Waikiki, from the guilt of sun seekers in Canada to the violence of fishers in the Galapagos Islands, from the grilles of US automobiles ...

  • The Conquest of Europe by the Pacific Empire

    A Fairy Tale

    de Jay Maclean ...
    Today, the Pacific islands reflect the best and worst in western society.
