Download or read book Deep Descent written by Kevin F. McMurray and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2002-07-09 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An in-depth look at the danger of diving the Andrea Doria, the "Everest" of deep-sea diving, by an award-winning journalist and photographer. On a foggy July evening in 1956, the Italian cruise liner Andrea Doria, bound for New York, was struck broadside by another vessel. In eleven hours, she would sink nearly 250 feet to the murky Atlantic Ocean floor. Thanks to a daring rescue operation, only fifty-one of more than 1,700 people died in the tragedy. But the Andrea Doria is still taking lives. Considered the Mount Everest of diving, the Andrea Doria is the ultimate deepwater wreck challenge. Over the years, a small but fanatical group of extreme scuba divers have investigated the Andrea Doria, pushing themselves to the very limits of human endurance to explore her—and not all have returned. Diver Kevin McMurray takes you inside this elite club with a hard, honest look at those who go deeper, farther, and closer to the edge than others would ever dream. Deep Descent is the riveting true story of the human spirit overcoming human frailty and of fearsome, mortal risks traded for a hard-core adrenaline rush. Chronicling these adventures in his page-turning narrative and in dozens of dramatic photos, McMurray draws us deeper into the cold heart of the unforgiving sea, giving us a powerful vision of a place to which few will ever have the skills—or the courage—to go.

Book Synopsis The Awfully Big Adventure by : Paul Morley
Download or read book The Awfully Big Adventure written by Paul Morley and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2019-03-05 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Jackson died on June 25 2009 in Los Angeles, from of acute propofol and benzodiazepine intoxication (according to Wikipedia). The one-time King of Pop was preparing for one last assault on the mainstream with a proposed 50 night run of shows at the 02 (thereby trumping his arch-rival, Prince, who had just concluded his legendary 21 Nights). His exhaustion, paranoia and general ill-heath were an open secret. He had lived many lives and inhabited many bodies; PT Barnum, Fred Astaire, and Peter Pan in one mortal coil. His death was mourned by hundreds of millions of fans but it was almost as if he had been dead for some time already. And in his death, in vivid technicolor, we relived the dreams, nightmares, fantasies, and perversions that we had all projected on to him for four decades. Paul Morley's short biographical portrait of Michael Jackson looks at how we turned the most outrageous child star talent of the late 20th century into a monster; how his decline soundtracked the end of Pop and the end of American Imperialism; how his once staggeringly modern and funky music became secondary to the dysfunctional freak show of watching a vulnerable man literally disintegrate. Tender, erudite, and provocative, Morley's monograph documents a tragedy that is so Shakespearean in scale that it obscures the legacy of the last of the great Song and Dance Men.

Book excerpt: How many of us fantasize about walking away from the daily grind of the American Dream to embark on a grand adventure? That's exactly what former French Special Forces Commando Jean-Philippe Soulé did in real life-abandoning his cushy job with Microsoft to launch into a three-year kayaking adventure that would take him and his best friend on a dangerous and beautiful journey of discovery across seven countries in Central America. Fans of Jon Krakauer's inspirational Into Thin Air will devour this gripping tale of adventure, survival, and a search for life's deeper meaning At first glance, Jean-Philippe Soulé had achieved everything modern society defines as "success." A former French Special Forces Commando, he enjoyed a thriving career in America as a program manager with Microsoft. Like many of us, however, he secretly dreamed about walking away from his job to embark on to jump into an epic adventure, one inspired by the captivating sea adventures of Jacques Cousteau that he'd read about in his youth. The difference, though, is that Jean-Philippe made those dreams come true In 1998, he and his travel partner Luke Shullenberger shed the trappings of comfortable civility to venture into the Central American Sea Kayak Expedition 2000-an ambitious quest to paddle all the way from California to Panama. The bold expedition would take the two men across 3,000 miles of the remote and wild Central American coastline, spanning three years, seven countries, and countless once-in-a-lifetime experiences. Now, twenty years later, Jean-Philippe Soulé reflects on this incredible and enlightening journey in the revised Dancing with Death-a compelling real-life travel memoir that documents the tales of exploration, endurance, and self-discovery that Jean-Philippe and Luke experienced as they kayaked across the most exquisite and treacherous waters of the world. Combining journal entries written at the time, reflections from two decades later, and stunning, award-winning photographs, Dancing with Death delivers the gripping narrative of Jean-Philippe and Luke's victories, misfortunes, and sacrifices in visceral and evocative detail. During this grueling rite of passage, the two men faced every manner of threat-from sharks, crocodiles, and bandits to stormy seas, malaria, and even coming face-to-face with their own mortality-all in search of a deeper connection with Mother Nature and the Indigenous communities who revere her most. Jean-Philippe was transformed by the people he met along the way. Readers of all ages will be inspired as they follow these intrepid explorers on this extraordinary transformational voyage-testing their limits, exploring new cultures, and learning that life is what we make it, if only we dare to reach for our dreams. "A noble mission loaded with adventure, drama and intrigue - Patti Todd "Wonderful story about the human spirit." - Douglas L Hillary Winner of Four international Book Awards: Winner of the 2019 KBR Kindle Book Awards Winner of the 2019 International Book Awards Winner of the 2019 Reader's Favorite Book Award Winner of the 2019 IAN Book of the Year Awards and Semi-Finalist of the 2019 Chanticleer International Book Awards Today, through his Live Your Adventure inspirational memoirs series, Jean-Philippe inspires people to embrace their dreams and live life to the fullest.
Book Synopsis Five Meditations on Death by : François Cheng
Download or read book Five Meditations on Death written by François Cheng and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophical discussions on the ways that death makes life meaningful and sacred • Reveals how being conscious of death gives our fate its full meaning, inviting the reader to contemplate life in the light of their own death • Examines the author’s experience of ancestor worship in his native China and the beliefs that underlie it • Explains how death is a transition in a longer living process not visible from the modern “black and white” view of life and death • Translated by award-winning translator Jody Gladding Born from intimate discussions with friends, these five meditations on death from poet-philosopher François Cheng examine the multiple ways the prospect of death significantly shapes life and is, in fact, what makes life meaningful and sacred. Written at the age of 84, in the twilight of life, these meditations each approach the human understanding of death from different yet intertwined perspectives, effortlessly returning to certain themes and ideas, questioning them again more deeply with each passing. The author shows that death is a transition in a longer living process not visible from the modern “black and white” view of life and death. He examines his experience of ancestor worship in his native China and the beliefs that underlies it: Our ancestors are alive in another form, that what is living can never die and what is dead has never lived. Cheng looks at the consequences of a world that has abandoned the sacred and avoids the mention of death, a world now blindly staggering through the chaos it has created, yet which can return to balance if we once again embrace the essential sacredness of life as well as death. Throughout these five heart-baring meditations, Cheng invites us to contemplate life in the light of our own death. He reveals that to be conscious of death gives our fate its full meaning. Our death is an integral part of our great adventure in becoming. For if birth is a seed, then death is the fruit--the final sacred product of a life well lived.
