Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: RUNNER-UP OF THE 2020 BODLEY HEAD / FINANCIAL TIMES ESSAY PRIZE 'Just before the COVID-19 quarantine, I moved into my girlfriend's apartment, a renovated garage in a forgotten triangle of blocks where three Mexico City neighbourhoods come together.' A River Passes By Here is a story about Mexico City, its climate, its history and the life and love that flourishes within it. It describes efforts over more than a century to tame a unique natural environment, and explores what nature means to us when we are forcibly separated from it. It is a deeply evocative and enchanting portrait of a very particular time in an exceptional place.
Download or read book Here Lies Arthur written by Philip Reeve and published by Scholastic Inc.. This book was released on 2015-01-06 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to the dark side of Camelot. The acclaimed author of Mortal Engines delivers a “powerfully inventive” re-creation of the King Arthur tale (Booklist, starred review). Gwynna is just a girl who is forced to run when her village is attacked and burns to the ground. To her horror, she is discovered, but it is Myrddin the bard, a traveler and spinner of tales, who has found her. He agrees to protect Gwynna if she will agree to be bound in service to him. Gwynna is frightened but intrigued, for this Myrddin serves the young, rough, and powerful Arthur. In the course of their travels, Myrddin transforms Gwynna into the mysterious Lady of the Lake, a boy warrior, and a spy. It is part of a plot to transform Arthur from the leader of a ragtag war-band into King Arthur, the greatest hero of all time. If Gwynna and Myrrdin’s trickery is discovered, what will become of Gwynna? Worse, what will become of Arthur? Only the endless battling, the mighty belief of men, and the sheer cunning of one remarkable girl will tell. “Nodding to canon and history while not particularly following either Reeve, like Myrddin, turns hallowed myth and supple prose to political purposes, neatly skewering the modern-day cult of spin and the age-old trickery behind it. Smart teens will love this.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “Is there room for yet another reworking of the Arthur legend? If it’s this one, yes . . . Absorbing, thought-provoking and unexpectedly timely.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “A multilayered tour de force for mature young readers.” —School Library Journal
Download or read book Lonely River Pass written by Kurt Burnum and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-12-27 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A first look inside this second edition of the infamous, "Time Walkers Series" wherein lies the story of the long gone, and ill-forgotten Lonely River Pass Bar and Grill Saloon. One that is a humble location in the World of perpetual life. One which makes up the lives of everyone who was ever in or around the area. It also appeared that the history of The Lonely river Pass could've been perpetuated differently, but in a better way. Instead of that, they all wanted their first magnificent taste of The Well of The Eternal which is located in the mountains of Sure Hill Valley.
Book Synopsis The Great Medicine Road, Part 2 by : Michael L. Tate
Download or read book The Great Medicine Road, Part 2 written by Michael L. Tate and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2015-10-01 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the early weeks of 1848, as U.S. congressmen debated the territorial status of California, a Swiss immigrant and an itinerant millwright forever altered the future state’s fate. Building a sawmill for Johann August Sutter, James Wilson Marshall struck gold. The rest may be history, but much of the story of what happened in the following year is told not in history books but in the letters, diaries, journals, and other written recollections of those whom the California gold rush drew west. In this second installment in the projected four-part collection The Great Medicine Road: Narratives of the Oregon, California, and Mormon Trails, the hardy souls who made the arduous trip tell their stories in their own words. Seven individuals’ tales bring to life a long-ago year that enriched some, impoverished others, and forever changed the face of North America. Responding to often misleading promotional literature, adventurers made their way west via different routes. Following the Carson River through the Sierra Nevada, or taking the Lassen Route to the Sacramento Valley, they passed through the Mormon Zion of Great Salt Lake City and traded with and often displaced Native Americans long familiar with the trails. Their accounts detail these encounters, as well as the gritty realities of everyday life on the overland trails. They narrate events, describe the vast and diverse landscapes they pass through, and document a journey as strange and new to them as it is to many readers today. Through these travelers’ diaries and memoirs, readers can relive a critical moment in the remaking of the West—and appreciate what a difference one year can make in the life of a nation.

Book Synopsis As Long as the Rivers Flow by : Larry Loyie
Download or read book As Long as the Rivers Flow written by Larry Loyie and published by Groundwood Books Ltd. This book was released on 2020-07-03 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Norma Fleck Award for Canadian Children’s Non-Fiction From the mid-1800s to the late 1990s, the education of Indigenous children was taken on by various churches in government-sponsored residential schools. More than 150,000 children were forcibly taken from their families in order to erase their traditional languages and cultures. As Long as the Rivers Flow is the story of Larry Loyie’s last traditional summer before entering residential school. It is a time of adventure and learning from his Elders. He cares for an abandoned baby owl, watches his kokom (grandmother) make winter moccasins, and helps his family prepare for summer camp, where he will pick berries, fish and swim. While searching for medicine plants in the bush with Kokom, he encounters a giant grizzly bear. Gently but truthfully written, the book captivates its readers and reveals a hidden history.

Book Synopsis A River Flows from Eden by : Melila Hellner-Eshed
Download or read book A River Flows from Eden written by Melila Hellner-Eshed and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-29 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Zohar, the jewel in the crown of Jewish mystical literature, the verse "A river flows from Eden to water the garden" (Genesis 2:10) symbolizes the river of divine plenty that unceasingly flows from the depths of divinity into the garden of reality. Hellner-Eshed's book investigates the flow of this river in the world of the Zoharic heroes, Rabbi Shimon bar Yohai and his disciples, as they embark upon their wondrous spiritual adventures. By focusing on the Zohar's language of mystical experience and its unique features, the author is able to provide remarkable scholarly insight into the mystical dimensions of the Zohar, namely the human quest for an enhanced experience of the living presence of the divine and the Zohar's great call to awaken human consciousness.
