Her second book Wild at Heart focused on a time when Peter became very ill and their lifestyle had to adapt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c!--kaikora_description--\u003e\n  \u003cli id=\"tab2\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eMiriam Lancewood was born in 1983 and grew up in the Netherlands. She was a competitive pole-vaulter and studied Physical Education before travelling in Africa and India. There she met her New Zealand husband, and together they travelled for many years through Asia and Papua New Guinea before arriving in New Zealand. They lived primitively in the remote wilderness of the Southern Alps, and Miriam wrote her first book Woman in the Wilderness about that time. She currently lives in Bulgaria with her husband, when she's not out in the wilderness on adventures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c!--kaikora_description--\u003e\n  \u003cli id=\"tab3\"\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"text-align: center;background-color: #8CB490;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeneral Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781991142481\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAllen \u0026amp; Unwin NZ\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImprint\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eA\u0026amp;U New Zealand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight (g)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e396.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e31 March 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eh234mm  x  w153mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAvailability date\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e01 April 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ebooks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd colspan=\"2\" style=\"text-align: center;background-color: #8CB490;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMiriam Lancewood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBind\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnglish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFor more information on our shipping policy follow \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/folders.co.nz\/pages\/delivery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003ethis link\u003c\/a\u003e and for our returns policy \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/folders.co.nz\/pages\/online-returns-policy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eclick here.\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c!--kaikora_description--\u003e \n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c!--kaikora_description--\u003e\n    ","brand":"United Books Distributors","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49740968231149,"sku":"9781991142481","price":37.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0541\/2565\/8281\/files\/Alone_in_the_World_9324577095917_1.jpg?v=1775015202","url":"https:\/\/marstonmoor.co.nz\/products\/alone-in-the-world","provider":"Marston Moor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
