Igloo Ripples: The story of a unique fibreglass cabin | Anthea Wallhead | PaperbackThe Australian Antarctic Division nicknamed their igloo the Apple or Apple Hut, because it was round and red and made in Tasmania. Igloo Ripples is the story of these fibreglass "Igloos" used by expeditioners in Antarctica and other remote regions of the world. The book is written by Anthea Wallhead, whose husband, Malcolm Wallhead, was the original designer and manufacturer of the Igloos. While Malcolm drew up his original designs in London in 1973,

The Australian Antarctic Division nicknamed their igloo the “Apple” or “Apple Hut”, because it was “round and red and made in Tasmania”.

Igloo Ripples is the story of these fibreglass "Igloos" used by expeditioners in Antarctica and other remote regions of the world. The book is written by Anthea Wallhead, whose husband, Malcolm Wallhead, was the original designer and manufacturer of the Igloos.

While Malcolm drew up his original designs in London in 1973, the first Igloo wasn't made until 1982 (by which time Malcolm was living in Hobart, Tasmania). From 1982 to 2000, Anthea and Malcolm shared the making and business aspects of the Igloos. Since Malcolm's death in 2000, Anthea has been the guardian of the business. 

Based on the diaries kept on every Igloo made, Igloo Ripples describes the places the Igloos were used and the diverse influences of the Igloos on Anthea and her sons’ lives.

2022 marks the fortieth year since the very first fibreglass Igloo Satellite Cabin was ordered by the Australian Antarctic Division.

Nat Turner was NOT happy
I think Mr Styron may have took some liberties with Nat Turner's "orientation" without the research or data to support his opinion.

A book for the ages...historically concise and horrific at once
William Styron, a gifted writer outdid himself with this book. His concise detail gives us an inside view on the depth of feeling employed by the subject of this book. The book while concise and tender pulls us in as these events take place. As Mailer delves deeper into the mind of Nat Turner, we cannot help but feel a sense of the suffering this man endured and this is what gives us perspective into this tragedy as it unfolds. A compelling masterpiece of literature.

Amazing Read and Crucial to Black Empowerment in America
Format: Paperback
This book should be in every black home in America, it shows in clear and evident words the flaws in America towards African Americans even into the modern day, as well as the reasons for the various obstacles to progress and change for the Black Community. An all around well-rounded read for any Black soul that is a must have to understand the reality they will endure and how they can achieve the reality they deserve.

Good gift but particular gift for this difficult person to shop for
Format: Paperback
Got this as a gift for a friend and he was hard to shop for even after asking his wife. He's not a handyman, or a tech savvy man. He cooks, and is a well read man with interests in politics and psychology, he's not at all a gamer either. He doesnt DO much but work, it's not like he works out, golf's or anything like that... And they have a Brady bunch family and all she gave me to go on was he likes malcol x. And this author is more Malcom x than mlk and aggressive in views (when being compared to MLK) but is also very intertwined with their philosophies as he was IN it... According to the person I gave the gift to. Basically he loved it! So
