The autobiography of a cave explorer, volume 2
Dave Gill's first volume in his autobiography proved a tremendous success, hence this second volume ... As the book cover states:
'The second volume of David Gill's autobiography, More Journeys Beneath the Earth, covers the experiences of one of Britain's most experienced cave explorers, beginning with his employment in Sarawak at the Gunung Mulu National Park, His work on World Heritage nomination and establishing a new protected area, the Gunung Buda National Park along with many high-profile expeditions are recounted with the struggles, adventures, humour and near misses along with teams of highly experienced and competent cave explorers over a 25-year period.
'On leaving Sarawak and returning to the UK, his expeditions took him back to the Nakanai Mountains of East New Britain, Papua New Guinea and later his return to Sarawak to continue voluntary work on conservation, project planning, engineering and helping local communities.
'Along with David's first volume, Journeys Beneath the Earth, over 50 years of adventurous exploration are covered mostly under dangerous and challenging conditions.'

Please see our FAQs relating to deliveries, and the Delivery page linked from the bottom of each page, before placing your order if time is an important element for your order.
On 1 July 2021 the EU removed all exemptions for tax and customs duty on low value items posted from the UK to the EU, meaning that although VAT is 0% on books and magazines in the UK, VAT is charged within the EU and the tax (potentially plus a handling fee) now apply to all orders to the EU.
We are unable to post any items to the EU with VAT or other duties prepaid; as a small company, it is a long way outside our abilities to engage with an agent to do so. All items are therefore mailed as DDU (Delivery Duty Unpaid). Ordering any item from Wild Places requires that you accept responsibility for paying the VAT applicable in your country and any other local charges on delivery.
To be clear: Wild Places will NOT cover any charges levied by your country; it is your responsibility to accept these when placing an order. We apologise for the situation, but it is outside our control. Refusal to pay charges upon delivery will not be accepted as a reason for refunding in full any returned items.
NOTE: Norway and Switzerland are outside the EU and orders will be filled as normal.
