Book Description
Slam ditches real life, clean clothes and sobriety on an epic journey across England. What begins as a questionable mission to document the country's waste receptacles rapidly takes on a surreal hue. The Bin Diaries, England, documents the author's semi-psychopathical lurchings around the south of Old Blighty between bizarre and brillian situations. Wit, heavy substance abuse and ever present emotional torment have equipped with him to offer an unique slant on life. Often dark, always entertaining but never incredible, Slam's subversive musings leave one wondering whole version of reality is more realistic. "Buy it. Ready it. Bin it." Slam Daniels

The Bin Diaries
Author: Slam Daniels
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1496991109

Languages : en
Pages : 155
Book Description
Slam begins his second documented mission in Mumbai in rainy season. Unaclimatized immersal in the hot, humid condition makes for an uncomfortable start to a voyage to a vast sub-continent on the pretext of cataloguing its waste disposal facilities. Bins are less plentiful than maybe expected from such populous country, poverty forcing many to discard their waste on the street and often live in it but, unperturbed, Slam photographs what there is for posterity. The often unsuccessful search for habitable accommodation and palatable food and the toll taken by excessive intake of alcohol and other toxins leaves the author fighting fatigue, sickness and psychosis on a daily basis. Travelling via train, plane, bus, jeep and rickshaw, through Delhi, Amritsar, Jodhpur and Jaipur, witnessing incredible natural and manmade beauty, squalor and social inequality and the apparent brewing of civil war in Kashmir, “The Bin Diaries, India” documents the Indian people, places and culture from a unique perspective.

R.R. Angerstein's Illustrated Travel Diary, 1753-1755
Author: Reinhold Rücker Angerstein
Publisher: NMSI Trading Ltd
ISBN: 9781900747240
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 404
Book Description
Reinhold Rücker Angerstein was an eighteenth-century industrial spy. He travelled widely in Europe in the 1750s, supported by the Swedish government, gathering information about trade and emerging technology. The diary of his trip to Britain is extraordinary for its quality of observation and insight, its comparative nature and the large number of detailed illustrations. The breadth of its coverage is astounding: coal, tin and copper mines, porcelain factories, iron foundries, smithies and workshops, rolling and slitting mills, chemical factories, water works and so on. This English-language translation provides, for the first time, Angerstein's work in accessible form. It will be of immense significance to historians of the period.
