Download or read book Rockaway written by Diane Cardwell and published by Mariner Books. This book was released on 2020 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspirational story of one woman learning to surf and creating a new life in gritty, eccentric Rockaway Beach Unmoored by a failed marriage and disconnected from her high-octane life in the city, Diane Cardwell finds herself staring at a small group of surfers coasting through mellow waves toward shore--and senses something shift. Rockaway is the riveting, joyful story of one woman's reinvention--beginning with Cardwell taking the A Train to Rockaway, a neglected spit of land dangling off New York City into the Atlantic Ocean. She finds a teacher, buys a tiny bungalow, and throws her not-overly-athletic self headlong into learning the inner workings and rhythms of waves and the muscle development and coordination needed to ride them. As Cardwell begins to find her balance in the water and out, superstorm Sandy hits, sending her into the maelstrom in search of safer ground. In the aftermath, the community comes together and rebuilds, rekindling its bacchanalian spirit as a historic surfing community, one with its own quirky codes and surf culture. And Cardwell's surfing takes off as she finds a true home among her fellow passionate longboarders at the Rockaway Beach Surf Club, living out "the most joyful path through life." Rockaway is a stirring story of inner salvation sought through a challenging physical pursuit--and of learning to accept the idea of a complete reset, no matter when in life it comes.
Book Synopsis Barbarian Days by : William Finnegan
Download or read book Barbarian Days written by William Finnegan and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-04-26 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: **Winner of the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Autobiography** Included in President Obama’s 2016 Summer Reading List “Without a doubt, the finest surf book I’ve ever read . . . ” —The New York Times Magazine Barbarian Days is William Finnegan’s memoir of an obsession, a complex enchantment. Surfing only looks like a sport. To initiates, it is something else: a beautiful addiction, a demanding course of study, a morally dangerous pastime, a way of life. Raised in California and Hawaii, Finnegan started surfing as a child. He has chased waves all over the world, wandering for years through the South Pacific, Australia, Asia, Africa. A bookish boy, and then an excessively adventurous young man, he went on to become a distinguished writer and war reporter. Barbarian Days takes us deep into unfamiliar worlds, some of them right under our noses—off the coasts of New York and San Francisco. It immerses the reader in the edgy camaraderie of close male friendships forged in challenging waves. Finnegan shares stories of life in a whites-only gang in a tough school in Honolulu. He shows us a world turned upside down for kids and adults alike by the social upheavals of the 1960s. He details the intricacies of famous waves and his own apprenticeships to them. Youthful folly—he drops LSD while riding huge Honolua Bay, on Maui—is served up with rueful humor. As Finnegan’s travels take him ever farther afield, he discovers the picturesque simplicity of a Samoan fishing village, dissects the sexual politics of Tongan interactions with Americans and Japanese, and navigates the Indonesian black market while nearly succumbing to malaria. Throughout, he surfs, carrying readers with him on rides of harrowing, unprecedented lucidity. Barbarian Days is an old-school adventure story, an intellectual autobiography, a social history, a literary road movie, and an extraordinary exploration of the gradual mastering of an exacting, little-understood art.

Book Synopsis Step-up English Grammar and Composition 4 (A.Y. 2023-24)Onward by : Fr Francis M Peter
Download or read book Step-up English Grammar and Composition 4 (A.Y. 2023-24)Onward written by Fr Francis M Peter and published by Goyal Brothers Prakashan. This book was released on 2023-05-20 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " " Language is one of the highest forms of expression. It acts as the medium to make our ideas, thoughts and feelings understood and appreciated. Like art, language can touch the heart and inspire the soul. And, at the heart and soul of a language, lies its grammar. Grammar helps the learners build a firm foundation for using the language. It is, therefore, very important for learners to develop the grammar skills that they need in order to express themselves meaningfully and creatively. Step-up English Grammar and Composition 1-8 is an NEP-aligned, carefully-graded grammar series developed to address the need of a systematic and step-wise strategy for understanding grammar. The series is based on the eclectic approach to language acquisition and presents a smooth blend of the inductive as well as the deductive method of teaching and learning the language. Each concept has been covered in detail, and great care has been taken to offer the relevant core concepts for the learners at each level. Last but not least, the utmost care has been taken to encapsulate in the series the key parameters laid down in National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. The NEP places the learner at the heart of the teaching-learning process. In recent years, there has been a paradigm shift towards designing a learner-centric curriculum that is based on an activity-based approach. There is also an equal emphasis on equipping young learners with essential twenty-first-century skills. The text as well as the activities in the book promote the holistic development of the learners. Besides, there is a lot of emphasis on enhancing the creativity, critical thinking, and communication and collaboration skills of learners. Salient Features of the Book • A conscious effort has been made to incorporate the major NEP specifications. • Simple, clear and detailed explanations of essential grammatical concepts have been given. • Explanations are followed by ample examples and a variety of well-graded exercises to reinforce the concepts. • Simple and clear instructions have been given in the exercises for easy understanding. • Fun-based, art-integrated exercises, together with a wide range of activities like grids and puzzles, have been used to bring the joy of learning to the classroom. • There is also a great emphasis on building cross-curricular, grade-appropriate vocabulary through exercises and comprehension. • Speaking activities have been made a part of the grammar exercises to instil more confidence in the learners. • All the explanations and exercises have been coupled with learner-friendly layout and illustrations for additional support. • Test papers have been introduced periodically to check if the learners have grasped the concepts. • Teacher's Resource Books comprise lessons plans, additional activities and teaching guidelines along with the answer key for each book. They are meant to serve as a handy aid for teachers and facilitate a wholesome teaching-learning experience. We hope this series caters to the requirements of the teachers as well as the students and meets our expectations in serving as a guide to the next generation of global citizens. While every possible effort has been made to avoid errors and omissions, any constructive suggestions for the improvement of the series will be welcomed and incorporated in future editions.
