The Petromax Fire Plunger is a dependable fire-starting tool designed to ignite a fire effortlessly in any environment. Compact and shorter than a hand, it fits neatly into your luggage, making it an ideal companion for outdoor adventures where traditional ignition methods may fail.

This innovative device revives an ancient fire-making technique used by indigenous peoples, utilising air compression within a hollow cylinder to ignite tinder. By placing tinder inside the plunger and pressing it down vigorously, the compressed air generates heat of up to 400°C, igniting the tinder quickly and reliably without the need for electricity or matches.

Crafted from high-quality black anodised aluminium, the Petromax Fire Plunger includes both the plunger and its body, each end featuring securely threaded caps. These caps house the tinder and lubricant necessary for smooth operation. Additionally, a firesteel is stored inside the plunger, offering an alternative sparking ignition method to ensure fire-starting success even in challenging conditions.

For convenience and protection, the Fire Plunger can be stored in its dedicated transport pouch, keeping all components safely organised and ready for repeated use. Its robust construction guarantees durability, making it suitable for campers, hikers, and survival enthusiasts seeking a reliable ignition source.

Packed with knowledge and mystery!
Format: Paperback
I gave this book 5 stars because this is an exhaustive compendium of mythological knowledge in one short (505 pages) volume. It is professorial in writing design, which includes excerpts in Latin, French and German, as well as the many words and phrases from India, Mesopotamia, northern Europe, Pacifiic islands and so forth. I recommend reading the appendices in the order they are referred to in the main text. I read them last and did not glean an understanding that accompanied the chapters. All in all, this is a researcher's book with 29 pages of bibliography material, with extensive notes at the bottom of the pages so one can stay on text. Good luck and enjoy the perusal of mythology, astronomy/astrology, history, poetry and fable. Great reading!

Interesting connections made.
Format: Paperback
I bought this because or had been referred to in several other excellent books I've read. Very scholarly and good case made but a bit dry and overdone/redundant at times when making a point. And if you've studied a lot, nothing really new revealed- but if just starting down this road, some great comparisons made.

Seminal
Format: Paperback
As many have noted, Hamlet's Mill is not an "easy" read, but it is an absolutely worthwhile experience not only to read but to re-read this seminal thesis on the transmission of ancient astronomical knowledge through mythology and legend. Perhaps the fact that a reader must wrestle with this text is part of the reason that it has generated so many fruitful inquiries and theories by later authors. The entire book is rich with ideas, many of which the authors drop and then pick up again and again later in the text, some of which are simply left for later analysts to pursue further on their own. Slice into it at any point and you will find a rich vein of material that can suggest new avenues for you to explore in the ancient history and literatures of the world. Sometimes an easy read or a text that hands you all of its answers and does the work for you is not "what the doctor ordered." Hamlet's Mill definitely makes more sense the second and even third time through. That in and of itself makes this book worth your while -- it's a gift that keeps on giving, a book you can keep on reading, even after you reach the end!

Love learning new things!
Format: Paperback
Love the book but unless you have a foreknowledge of myths from around the world and the experts that have written about them, you will need your phone next to you to look up everything that is being talked about. Like, on every page. Not an easy read.

Properly intellectual, and both demanding and rewarding as such
Format: Paperback
Anyone who plans to read this book is likely to know its premise already, so, I will not spend time or effort to recap it. All I can say is that the way the book is more eloquent, is altogether smarter, and more beautifully written than I expected. This is a true intellectual treat written with proper intellectual verve. So, no conspiracy theorists, or the simpleton believers in ancient aliens need not apply. If, however, you achieved a proper academic attainment - got your Masters or PhD and enjoy intellectual stimulation, this is a rare gem, to be digested slowly and deliberately, as no similar book is to be encountered any time soon. In other words, just a great book, presenting fascinating thoughts. It does not need anyone’s endorsement, as it is already a well-known entity within its field, yet, here it is – very heartily recommend!
