In Above the Clouds, both the man and his incredible climbs on Mt.

There also are minute technical details about the skill of mountain climbing, as well as personal reflections on what life means to someone who risks it every day. Fully illustrated with gorgeous color photos, Above the Clouds is a unique and breathtaking look at the world from its most remote peaks.

Download or read book Cloud Atlas written by David Mitchell and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2010-07-16 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A timeless, structure-bending classic that explores how actions of individual lives impact the past, present and future—from a postmodern visionary and one of the leading voices in fiction One of the New York Times’s 100 Best Books of the 21st Century • Shortlisted for the International Booker Prize Cloud Atlas begins in 1850 with Adam Ewing, an American notary voyaging from the Chatham Isles to his home in California. Ewing is befriended by a physician, Dr. Goose, who begins to treat him for a rare species of brain parasite. The novel careens, with dazzling virtuosity, to Belgium in 1931, to the West Coast in the 1970s, to an inglorious present-day England, to a Korean superstate of the near future where neocapitalism has run amok, and, finally, to a postapocalyptic Iron Age Hawaii in the last days of history. But the story doesn’t end even there. The novel boomerangs back through centuries and space, returning by the same route, in reverse, to its starting point. Along the way, David Mitchell reveals how his disparate characters connect, how their fates intertwine, and how their souls drift across time like clouds across the sky. As wild as a video game, as mysterious as a Zen koan, Cloud Atlas is an unforgettable tour de force that, like its incomparable author, has transcended its cult classic status to become a worldwide phenomenon.

Book excerpt: EVERYONE is left behind, the world is in its greatest hour of tribulation, the mark of the beast is here, are you ready? Jude is relatable. He’s a young American male with a college degree and career in the Coast Guard. He just wants to live his life in the typical American way: working a steady job and going to church on Sundays. God gives him quite the opposite story, however, when the power suddenly begins to go out around the world, Jude finds himself stranded at sea. After being rescued, he’s taken to a refugee camp, where he finds out that he’s not leaving until he gets a microchip. As the world around him crumbles under the wiles of the Devil, Jude finds himself re-evaluating everything he’s never been taught or told, the world is in its greatest hour of tribulation. As he trudges through the record- breaking snowfall, fights against a whole new level of technology that threatens to render the human race extinct, deciphers bizarre and strange new dreams, races to an advanced civilization and meets a diverse group of people who have their passion for Christ in common, Jude learns what it really means to be solely dependent on God and to seek first His kingdom. With evil running rampant in the form of war, famine, natural disasters, disease, suffering and deadly technology, it’s quite evident Jude and his new friends are living in the “last days” John talks about in Revelation. In fact, these may even be the “last hours”. What will happen to Jude, his friends, and the world when the clock strikes Midnight?

Download or read book The Big Cloud written by Camille Seaman and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our culture is addicted to weather: hourly forecasts, apps, radio, TV channels, alerts, warnings, and watches. And understandably—our food, clothing, livelihoods, and, increasingly, safety are tied directly to the weather and climate change. In The Big Cloud, photographer Camille Seaman stands in front of tornados, at the edges of lightning storms, and in pelting hail under pitch-black skies to capture supercells and mammatus clouds in their often sublime and terrifying splendor. In these awe-inspiring photographs, Seaman's work is a potent reminder that there is no art more dramatic, in scale or emotion, than that created by nature. Big Cloud includes an introduction by award-winning New Yorker science writer and author Alan Burdick (Out of Eden, Why Time Flies).
