Hi I am a Photographer, Publishing and Tourism Consultant who has travelled the world, I will be using this blog to repost news I find interesting and sometimes my own views on our mad world. Both “font” and “fount” are derived from the Latin fons. One figurative meaning of both “font” and “fount” in American dictionaries is a source of something, I use it because it links nicely with the idea of ‘A Font of Knowledge’ which makes a great blog title

This wonderful hardback facsimile is of a now rare book published in Paris, France in 1947 in paperback form and written in French by Ladislas Szabo a Hungarian born Argentine living in Argentina at the end of the Second World War. All the stories of Hitler escaping to Germany first started with this book, as it explains in detail how Hitler using a phantom convoy of U-boats was able to flee Europe and reach the relative safety of South America, and then on to Antarctica. This is this book that the Ex Captain of U-Boat 977, Heinz Schaeffer talks about in his 1952 book "U-Boat 977" where he talks about surprisingly discovering that his was one of the ships named to have helped Hitler reach to Antarctica. The book goes on to give details on Nazi underground bases in Antarctica, again from this one book you will see how all the movies showing Hitler and Nazi bases hidden in Antarctica were created even leading up to the later stories and conspiracy theories of the Americans being attacked by Nazi Wunderwaffe during Operation HighJump.
This book covers Antarctica in the 1920s to 1940s, before, during and after the Schwabenland Expedition, a fully illustrated book showing a hidden side to the continent of Antarctica and maybe showing something that is missing from the standard history books.
These books were what movies were turned into such as:
OPEN LETTER TO THE BIG FOUR
MM. George C. Manshall, Vyacheslav Molotov, Ernest Bevin and Georges Bidault. Excellencies, The guns fell silent but peace has not yet returned to earth. Almost two years after the end of the fight, the feeling of insecurity continues to dominate the minds of the crowds. Guided by an infallible instinct, people realize that Nazism remains a hidden peril. They know that Hitlerism was only defeated in the fields of battle and wait for the opportunity to take revenge. This fear is not exaggerated. Is there, by any chance, a pen capable of describing the horrors that humanity would have to endure if Nazism triumphed again? Could anyone foresee how far the madness of the currently deeply humiliated Hitlerism would reach, if by some eventuality it succeeded in dominating the world ? The danger is palpable and he acquires proportions of larger and larger, as the recently discovered bacterial conspiracy in Germany clearly demonstrates.
The underground organizations of Nazism will cease to exist as such when they have enough strength to reappear in the light of day, and they will not hesitate to return to open struggle as soon as they receive the Fuhrer's instructions. Because, in an immense majority, the Germans believe, and not without reason, that Hitler is not dead.
Excellencies, On July 16, 1945, the author of this work published in the columns of the Argentinian newspaper Critica an extensive and amply documented article on Hitler's flight and Location of his refuge. The events at the time fully corroborated the assertions made in the said article and made it possible to shed light, even in its smallest details, this astounding mystification which has no precedent in history. Yes, Hitler is alive and he must be stopped before it is too late. This book, based on carefully filtered documentation and written with a full sense of the responsibility, is a cry of alarm to men who love peace and freedom.
There is no doubt that Your Excellencies will appreciate the concrete facts set out in his pages and that they will take without delay the appropriate measures to avoid a new storm of blood and fire, the consequences of which would be catastrophic for the whole world. Thereby ecite the conscience of Your Excellencies and the supreme duty of the Big Four to Mankind.

Lots of myths on Byrds Operation Highjump like flying underground which can be ignored, but some interesting things have been said in the film documentaries of the day. Where are the walls of coal that were talked about in the late 1940s? I know the USA were very interested in claiming mining rights in the 1940s but walls of coal? And warm water lakes? As for the fresh warm water lakes that have started many a myth at a guess, I would say not warm but above freezing melt water lakes of Queen Mauds land, which were mapped by the German expedition in 1936. For those interested in the mapping of these lakes should read my book Antarctic Exploration Germany in Antarctica isbn 9781901037111. One surprise to me when looking at the films made at the time is the aircraft having enough fuel to fly to Queen Mauds land from Little America and back again in 1947. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9chz8COYVc ISBN 9781901037111

Big Business Events OK perhaps not for me, but I was so disappointed and it kept reminding me of the old time share events we all used to attend. I was sent an invite for a free business event and owning a publishing company this is normal. What is not so normal is the hidden costs. Parking in a hotel car park costs £10 for all day! Did I have to pay? well no I hide the car in the delivery area where the event organizers also hide their cars. The setting up staff were very rude when I was looking if there was a welcoming drink. The hotel staff did feel sorry for me and did me a cup of tea. The meeting was 9am to 5pm and with no drinks or snacks! 8 hours and no offer of refreshment! If you wanted a biscuit or coffee you had to go out and buy it. Now they did do a snack at lunch time with a special talk with the speakers … But only if you upgraded your ticket from free to VIP at a cost of about £27, still no refreshments just a snack an

See the above video on Brexit: What Britain Wants, with Stephen Fry ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As to what has the EU done for us idea lets take a look With the Brexit deadline fast approaching and no deal in sight, we thought now might be a good time to take a look at 98 benefits of EU membership for the UK. The Bank of England estimates that the fallout of a No Deal Brexit will be worse than the 2008 financial crisis. Needless to say this will likely be very bad for UK small businesses. However, the UK can unilaterally revoke article 50 at any time to stop this madness. Here 98 reasons why we should: Membership of the world’s largest trading bloc with over 500 million consumers, representing 23% of global GDP The UK has greater global influence as a member of the EU The EU provides a counterweight to the global power of the US, Russia and China With Trump in the White House the UK’s strongest natural allies are France, Germany and our othe
