Sinossi

Brussels, often seen as simply the heart of the European Union, is revealed in "Brussels Legacy" as a city with a rich tapestry of history, politics, and culture. From its medieval origins to its modern-day role as a political hub, Brussels' story is one of constant evolution.

 
The book uniquely integrates historical analysis, political insights, and cultural commentary to present a holistic portrait of Brussels. One intriguing aspect explored is how Brussels became a center for European politics after World War II, hosting major EU institutions. The book also delves into the city's renowned culinary traditions, such as Belgian chocolate and waffles, reflecting its cultural dynamism.

 
These elements combine to challenge the conventional image of Brussels as merely a bureaucratic center, uncovering a deep and layered identity. The book systematically explores these interconnected themes, starting with Brussels' geographical and historical origins, then moving through its medieval development and its rise as Belgium's capital. It culminates by analyzing how these different facets converge to define Brussels' contemporary identity, addressing the challenges and opportunities facing the city today.

 
Readers gain a comprehensive perspective on Brussels' past and present, enriching their understanding of this fascinating European capital.

    Thieves Liars and Mountaineers -...

    This is the tale of Mark Horrell’s not-so-nearly ascent of Gasherbrum in Pakistan, of how one man’s boredom and frustration was conquered by a gutsy combination of exhaustion, cowardice, and sheer mountaineering incompetence. 
    He made not one, not two, but three intrepid assaults, some of which got quite a distance beyond Base Camp, and overcame many perilous circumstances along the way. The mountaineer Joe Simpson famously crawled for three days with a broken leg, but did he ever have to read Angels and Demons by Dan Brown while waiting for a weather window? 
    But that’s enough about Mark’s attempt; there were some talented climbers on the mountain as well, and this story is also about them. How did they get on? Heroes, villains, oddballs and madmen – 8,000m peaks attract them all, and drama, intrigue and cock-ups aplenty were inevitable.
