Book Synopsis Tales of Travel by : Marquess George Nathaniel Curzon Curzon of Kedleston
Download or read book Tales of Travel written by Marquess George Nathaniel Curzon Curzon of Kedleston and published by . This book was released on 1923 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Nathaniel Curzon (1859-1925) was a British politician, traveler, and writer who served as viceroy of India from 1899 to 1905 and foreign secretary from 1919 to 1924. As a young man he traveled extensively and wrote several travel books, or books that drew extensively on his travels, including Russia in Central Asia (1889), Persia and the Persian Question (1892), and Problems of the Far East (1894). Tales of Travel (1923), presented here, is one of his last books. It consists of previously unpublished memoirs and essays based on journeys taken earlier in Curzon's life. The book reflects the range of Curzon's travels, his curiosity and powers of observation, and his literary talent. One essay, "The Great Waterfalls of the World," describes and compares waterfalls in North America, South America, Africa, India, and New Zealand. Another, "The Singing Sands," deals with the strange singing or rumbling sounds said to be heard in deserts, and discusses this phenomenon as it manifests itself in the deserts of Central Asia, Afghanistan, Persia, the Sinai, Arabia, North Africa, and the Americas. Another piece is about sumo wrestling in Japan. One of the most noteworthy essays in the book, "The Amir of Afghanistan," is an account of Curzon's meetings in 1894-95 with 'Abd al-Rahman Khan (circa 1844-1901), ruler of Afghanistan. Curzon characterizes the amir as brilliant and effective, but also cruel and merciless. "He welded the Afghan tribes into a unity which they had never previously enjoyed, and he paved the way for the complete independence which his successors achieved. He and he alone was the Government of Afghanistan." The book is illustrated, and contains a large fold-out facsimile of a map of Afghanistan prepared and circulated by 'Abd al-Rahman Khan.
Book Synopsis Mrs. Oswald Chambers by : Michelle Ule
Download or read book Mrs. Oswald Chambers written by Michelle Ule and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among Christian devotional works, My Utmost for His Highest stands head and shoulders above the rest, with more than 13 million copies sold. But most readers have no idea that Oswald Chambers's most famous work was not published until ten years after his death. The remarkable person behind its compilation and publication was his wife, Biddy. And her story of living her utmost for God's highest is one without parallel. Bestselling novelist Michelle Ule brings Biddy's story to life as she traces her upbringing in Victorian England to her experiences in a WWI YMCA camp in Egypt. Readers will marvel at this young woman's strength as she returns to post-war Britain a destitute widow with a toddler in tow. Refusing personal payment, Biddy proceeds to publish not just My Utmost for His Highest, but also 29 other books with her husband's name on the covers. All the while she raises a child alone, provides hospitality to a never-ending stream of visitors and missionaries, and nearly loses everything in the London Blitz during WWII. The inspiring story of a devoted woman ahead of her times will quickly become a favorite of those who love true stories of overcoming incredible odds, making a life out of nothing, and serving God's kingdom.

Book excerpt: THIS SERIES: True Travel Tales Over the last few decades, I've interviewed nearly 2,000 world travelers and adventurers. I am weaving the best of their nearly 10,000 fantastic travel tales into a psychology of travel as revealed by these very telling stories. These are travelers I've encountered on planes, trains, buses, ships, tours, safaris, and in campgrounds, bars, cafes, restaurants, and pubs. These courageous travelers have freely shared their most personal travel experiences, some good and wonderful and others even horrific and life-threatening, which I, in turn, get to share with you now through my True Travel Tales series. THIS BOOK: Travel Tales: Michael's Own Best 150 The True Travel Tales series is the expanded full collection of the best of all my own personal travel stories in my rich, varied and adventurous travel life that has taken me to more than 125 countries. This book of travel tales includes a selection of my own personal best, worst, funniest, and in some cases, even my most embarrassing travel experiences that have now become my most memorable and interesting travel stories today. From my unique perspective of being the world's first and probably only 'travel psychologist, ' I think you'll find the collection of my own personal best travel experiences riveting, informative, funny, and entertaining. Please enjoy! While some people say that some of my stories are riotous, others say that I should be kept locked up at home and not allowed to travel anywhere! These events, as unbelievable as some of them may seem to be, really did happen to me! Read on!
