First book on Antarctica banned on social media and parts of the USA ! and I published it !



Of all the books I have created on Antarctica over the years I have only had one that I was forced to Bowdlerize and reprint to get around social media censorship including facebook.

I was very pleased with my design and translation of the text and sure did not expect the reaction I got.

Look the background book cover photo,
it is one that I took when in Antarctica !

And yes I am one of the few antarctic Book publishers that has been to Antarctica !

Walmart is a dangerous Organisation !

For those that do not believe me when I say shops in the USA change the name of my book as they can not use the N word on a book title https://www.walmart.com/.../Antarctic.../183527847...

Buy Antarctic Exploration: Hitler's Escape to South America and Secret Bases in Antarctica (Historic Series) at Walmart.com

The funny thing is that my banned edition is the one Book collectors want, well apart from those that want both editions, the banned one and the Bowdlerized one.

The Bowdlerized one is just the same just the same with an amended title and new isbn 9781901037111
you can find it on Amazon, just as good and the same price.

Heck if you buy it from me direct I will sign it for you.




For those of you living in the USA and want the banned book .... you can ...But you will notice that even Amazon will miss off the first word due to it being banned in parts of the States and on lots of social media

Antarctic Exploration: Hitler's Escape to South America and Secret Bases in Antarctica (Historic Series) Hardcover 


This is the ISBN of the banned book 9781901037081

Take a look for yourself ! here is the link showing how the title has been changed, but not the book cover. this is Amazon USA

https://www.amazon.com/s?k=9781901037081&ref=nb_sb_noss

Now in the UK we are allowed to use the word in book titles

https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=9781901037081&crid=1VW8N4B3ML5LI&sprefix=9781901037081%2Caps%2C64&ref=nb_sb_noss



At the moment I am having fun with what words you can use on book titles in the main social media, I had to republish my Germany in Antarctic book as the word Nazl was in the title which is a no go word for a book title in the USA or social media and so had to re name it.

I can sell it all over the world but not talk about it on facebook or Youtube. 

Another word that took me by suprise is that of 'Plantation' one author told me she had to change it to Estate as Plantation is only linked to slavery in the US bookworld.

All my posts on on the book on facebook were removed, I complained to Facebook over the censorship of my book and book groups and in return they removed my account, I did have a few spare ones but they have traced them and removed them along with my Facebook Bookshop which I paid facebook for adverts on.

It is facebooks version of a FATWA with less dead bodies 

I tried to create a new one but the removed that within an hour.

Lots of myths on Byrds Operation Highjump in Antarctica

Image
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

Brexiteers’ latest protest involves staying at home and doing nothing to cost country £250 million a day

Image
Brexiteers’ latest protest involves staying at home and doing nothing A new protest against Brexit that they hope will “bring the country to its knees” involves sitting in the dark all day and using no electricity. The “national strike” has been planned for Friday April 12 - the next Brexit deadline which could see the UK crash out of the European Union if there is no extension. The Brexiteer organisers are urging people to switch off their television sets and their mobile phones and stay at home. They believe the protest could cost the country £250 million a day. According to a group on Facebook entitled “Brexit Blackout! 12th of April” the protesters will avoid cars, electricity, and shopping. They claim if the strikes go ahead for several days “they would have no choice but to listen”. A post says: “I am proposing a national strike on the 12th for all of those that voted leave. “A one day strike, no cars, no electricity, no shopping, just sitting at home with
