Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK I have just dropped into the very place I have been seeking, but in everything it exceeds all my dreams. Imagine a time when the wild west was still wild, when no one knew what lay inside the dense forests blanketing Colorado’s Rocky Mountains. When grizzly bears still reigned supreme over California’s forests and the night was filled with the sounds of night creatures. Imagine a time when “ruffians” and “desperados” roamed the land, inspiring both fear and awe in all those who saw them. Imagine a time when Denver was a rough and ready town just recently brought under civil law, and the ink on the document proclaiming Colorado’s statehood was still wet. The mountains were not yet riddled with mine shafts, but hopes and dreams were just beginning to be smashed by the empty promises of wealth below the Earth’s surface. The year is 1873 and America is a wild place still recovering from a devastating civil war and learning how to be a country. Colorado is a wilderness just beginning to be populated by miners, settlers looking for a new life, and invalids grasping at the hope that the clean air will bring a cure. It is a beautiful place full of promise, but it is also a hard place that is more likely to break your heart. It is to this Colorado that Isabella Bird, a 43-year-old English lady, finds herself drawn. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK In 1873, Isabella Bird is 42 years old and she has mountain fever. She yearns to immerse herself in the beauty and culture of Colorado’s Rocky Mountains. She doesn’t care if she has to rough it a little; she wants to ride a horse through dense forests and climb atop rocky crags, to look down on the world from above. Isabella’s journey begins in San Francisco and quickly moves to the Sierra Nevadas where she is transfixed by the sparkling emerald beauty of Lake Tahoe and the tragic mountain gem of Donner Lake. Dipping down on the easterly slope of the Sierras, she begins a long and tedious crossing of the Plains. Here she finds herself enclosed in an endless sea of grass that possesses all the loneliness of the ocean and none of the beauty. Isabella is stifled by the heat and black flies that coat every surface. The towns in which she stops are dreary outposts of no merit. So, she runs for the hills. For weeks, Isabella finds herself stuck in Canyon, Colorado staying with the Chalmers family. There is nothing beautiful about this place where everyone lives and breathes work. She lends a hand where she can and bides her time until she can figure out a way to reach Estes Park, the mountain land of her dreams. Just when Isabella is about to give up hope of ever reaching Estes Park, she finds two young men who will take her there. The ride is beautiful and before she knows it, they are at Rocky Mountain Jim’s cabin at the mouth of Estes Park. She is immediately struck by both the handsomeness, brutality, and charm of the ruffian. He continues to be in her thoughts until she comes upon Evans’s camp set up in a lovely meadow next to a picturesque lake. She decides to stay in this idyllic setting until winter comes on.

Book Synopsis A Little History of the World by : E. H. Gombrich
Download or read book A Little History of the World written by E. H. Gombrich and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: E. H. Gombrich's Little History of the World, though written in 1935, has become one of the treasures of historical writing since its first publication in English in 2005. The Yale edition alone has now sold over half a million copies, and the book is available worldwide in almost thirty languages. Gombrich was of course the best-known art historian of his time, and his text suggests illustrations on every page. This illustrated edition of the Little History brings together the pellucid humanity of his narrative with the images that may well have been in his mind's eye as he wrote the book. The two hundred illustrations—most of them in full color—are not simple embellishments, though they are beautiful. They emerge from the text, enrich the author's intention, and deepen the pleasure of reading this remarkable work. For this edition the text is reset in a spacious format, flowing around illustrations that range from paintings to line drawings, emblems, motifs, and symbols. The book incorporates freshly drawn maps, a revised preface, and a new index. Blending high-grade design, fine paper, and classic binding, this is both a sumptuous gift book and an enhanced edition of a timeless account of human history.

Book Synopsis The Wiles of Satan by : William Spurstowe
Download or read book The Wiles of Satan written by William Spurstowe and published by Digital Puritan Press. This book was released on 2016-08-30 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like it or not, every Christian is engaged in a fierce and high-stakes battle with Satan. In this enlightening book, Puritan pastor William Spurstowe succinctly illustrates from 2 Corinthians 2:11 (“…lest Satan should get an advantage of us—for we are not ignorant of his devices”) his premise: that “Satan is full of devices, and studies arts of circumvention, by which he unweariedly seeks the irrecoverable ruin of the souls of men.” Spurstowe explains how Satan’s long experience and single-minded determination make him such a formidable adversary. He then proceeds to methodically expose, explain, and disarm nearly two dozen common traps that Satan has used to ensnare every generation of the unwary. Finally, he prescribes ten helpful remedies or antidotes that can be used to counter even the most tempestuous temptation. William Spurstowe (1605–1666) was a Presbyterian pastor and member of the Westminster Assembly; he served the Parliament of Richard Cromwell. Originally published in 1666, this classic treatise has been carefully prepared to benefit a new generation of Christian readers. Archaic language has been gently modernized, and dozens of helpful footnotes have been added to aid the reader. This edition includes a biographical preface, Scripture index (paperback only), and review questions designed to guide group discussion or personal reflection.
Book Synopsis An Affair with Africa by : Alzada Carlisle Kistner
Download or read book An Affair with Africa written by Alzada Carlisle Kistner and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In June 1960, a young faculty wife named Alzada Kistner and her husband David, a promising entomologist, left their 18-month old daughter in the care of relatives and began what was to be a four month scientific expedition in the Belgian Congo. Three weeks after their arrival, the country was gripped by a violent revolution trapping the Kistners in its midst. Despite having to find their way out of numerous life-threatening situations, the Kistners were not to be dissuaded. An emergency airlift by the United States Air Force brought them to safety in Kenya where they continued their field work. Thus began three decades of adventures in science. In An Affair with Africa, Alzada Kistner describes her family's African experience -- the five expeditions they took beginning with the trip to the Belgian Congo in 1960 and ending in 1972-73 with a nine-month excursion across southern Africa. From hunching over columns of ants for hours on end while seven months pregnant to eating dinner next to Idi Amin, Kistner provides a lively and humor-filled account of the human side of scientific discovery. Her wonderfully detailed stories clearly show why, despite hardship and danger -- and contrary to all of society's expectations -- she could not forsake accompanying her husband on his expeditions, and, to this day, continues to find the world "endlessly beckoning, a lively bubbling cauldron of questions and intrigue." In the spirit of Beryl Markham's West with the Night and Isak Dinesen's Out of Africa, An Affair with Africa shares with readers the thoughts and experiences of a remarkable woman, one whose unquenchable thirst for adventure led her into a series of almost unimaginable situations. Readers -- from armchair travelers fascinated by stories of Africa to scientists familiar with the Kistners's work but unaware of the lengths to which they went to gather their data -- will find An Affair with Africa a rare treasure.

Download or read book A Brief History of Cyberspace written by Huansheng Ning and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the widespread growth of the Internet, a new space – cyberspace – has appeared and has rapidly been integrated into every facet of life and work. It has effectively become the fourth basic living space for human beings. Although cyberspace has become a topic of increasing widespread concern, it is still difficult to understand cyberspace well because of its many definitions, vast and varied content, and differences with other similar spaces. A Brief History of Cyberspace attempts to establish a complete knowledge system about the evolution and history of cyberspace and cyber-enabled spaces (i.e., cyber-enabled physical space, cyber-enabled social space, and cyber-enabled thinking space). By providing a comprehensive overview, this book aims to help readers understand the history of cyberspace and lays a solid foundation for researchers and learners who are interested in cyberspace. The book has three main objectives: To provide a comprehensive understanding of the development of cyberspace, ranging from its origin, evolutions, and research status to open issues and future challenges, as well as related hot topics in industry and academia. To examine cyber life, cyber syndrome, and health in addition to cyber-enabled spaces designed for better living. To describe cyberspace governance from the perspective of the individual, society, and national and international levels in order to promote a more profound and reasonable direction to the development of cyberspace. Consisting of 16 chapters, the book is divided into three parts. Chapter 1 introduces the origins and basic concept of cyberspace, cyber philosophy, and cyber logic to help readers have a general understanding of cyberspace. Chapters 2 through 7 discuss a wide variety of topics related to human behavior, psychology, and health to help people better adapt to cyberspace. Chapters 8 through 16 present the history of cyberspace governance and various social and culture aspects of cyberspace. Each chapter concludes with a discussion of future development.
