A group of students set off on the trip of a lifetime. Against the backdrop of the Cold War they travel through the Soviet Union to the Middle East, South Asia and on to Africa. Their mode of transport? The iconic VW Kombi. This book tells the story of that trip, not just the people they met and the places they saw, but the many experiences - sometimes nerve-wracking, sometimes bizarre - that they encountered along the way. It provides a fascinating insight into a world on the brink of change - seen through the eyes of nine young men fresh from university. The two VW Kombis doggedly traversed treacherous mountain passes, near-impossible roads, jungle tracks and river crossings on their journey through Anatolia, the Middle East, Asia and Africa. This book is an affectionate and highly entertaining re-creation of the relationship between the nine young travellers and their companions, the two VW Kombis which functioned as transport, shelter, canteen and home. It is also a tribute to the determined and rugged determination of the VW Kombi whose descendants still tackle the highways and the more daunting roads of the world."--Bloomsbury publishing. 517 3 $aAcross three continents in a VW van 606 $aAutomobile travel$zAfrica 606 $aAutomobile travel$zAsia 606 $aVolkswagen Transporters$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPostwar 20th century history, from c 1945 to c 2000$2BIC 607 $aAfrica$xDescription and travel 607 $aAsia$xDescription and travel 607 $aMiddle East$xDescription and travel 615 0$aAutomobile travel 615 0$aAutomobile travel 615 0$aVolkswagen Transporters$xHistory 615 7$aPostwar 20th century history, from c 1945 to c 2000. 676 $a915.04426 700 $aCox$b Robert$0832065 702 $aSherwin$b Roger 702 $aThompson$b Tony 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910965994303321 996 $aThe Kombi trail$94337822 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03295nam 2200673Ia 450 001 9910955180203321 005 20251117080911.0 010 $a1-315-72959-8 010 $a1-317-54638-5 010 $a1-306-45637-1 010 $a1-317-54639-3 010 $a1-84465-467-2 035 $a(CKB)2670000000175243 035 $a(EBL)1782473 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1782473 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10553878 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL576888 035 $a(OCoLC)890531497 035 $a(OCoLC)794490853 035 $a(FINmELB)ELB136710 035 $a(UkCbUP)CR9781844654673 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1782473 035 $a(OCoLC)970393038 035 $a(OCoLC-P)970393038 035 $a(FlBoTFG)9781315729596 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000175243 100 $a20090317d2009 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 04$aThe history of western philosophy of religion$hVolume 5$iTwentieth-century philosophy of religion /$fedited by Graham Oppy and Nick Trakakis 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aDurham $cAcumen$d2009 210 1$aDurham :$cAcumen,$d2009. 215 $a1 online resource (xv, 347 pages) $cdigital, PDF file(s) 225 0 $aThe history of western philosophy of religion ;$v5 300 $aOriginally published 2009 by Acumen. 311 08$a1-84465-224-6 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $gv. 1.$tAncient philosophy of religion --$gv. 2.$tMedieval philosophy of religion --$gv. 3.$tEarly modern philosophy of religion --$gv. 4.$tNineteenth-century philosophy of religion --$gv. 5.$tTwentieth-century philosophy of religion. 330 $aAn international team of over 100 leading scholars has been brought together to provide authoritative exposition of how history’s most important philosophical thinkers – from antiquity to the present day- have sought to analyse the concepts and tenets central to Western religious belief, especially Christianity.
