Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mysterious Abduction The events that I am about to describe are so fraught with mystery and horror, that they will probably appear to those who peruse their narration, as incredible, until the explanation is supplied. Although full of life and energy, loving adventure and excitement, the awful anxiety to which I was subjected, during the period over which these events extended, together with the unlooked for and hideously dramatic sequel, prostrated me for months and has left its mark upon me for ever. I am Court Arndt of the Archdukedom of Bremlauz, a domain situated within the Austrian Empire, my ancestors having held their titles since the days of the Third Crusade. At the time these adventures befell me, I was twenty-seven years of age, and had succeeded to my inheritance three years previously upon the death of my beloved father, whose demise was the last of a series of misfortunes which had occurred to our family since the period of my birth.

Download or read book Childhood and the Classics written by Sheila Murnaghan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dissemination of classical material to children has long been a major form of popularization with far-reaching effects, although until very recently it has received almost no attention within the growing field of classical reception studies. This volume explores the ways in which children encountered the world of ancient Greece and Rome in Britain and the United States over a century-long period beginning in the 1850s, as well as adults' literary responses to their own childhood encounters with antiquity. Rather than discussing the role of classics in education, it focuses on books read for enjoyment, and on two genres of children's literature in particular: the myth collection and the historical novel. The tradition of myths retold as children's stories is traced in the work of writers and illustrators from Nathaniel Hawthorne and Charles Kingsley to Roger Lancelyn Green and Ingri and Edgar Parin D'Aulaire, while the discussion of historical fiction focuses particularly on the roles of nationality and gender in the construction of an ancient world for modern children. The book concludes with an investigation of the connections between childhood and antiquity made by writers for adults, including James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, and H.D. Recognition of the fundamental role in children's literature of adults' ideas about what children want or need is balanced throughout by attention to the ways in which child readers have made such works their own. The formative experiences of antiquity discussed throughout help to explain why despite growing uncertainty about the appeal of antiquity to modern children, the classical past remains perennially interesting and inspiring.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A continuation of USA Today bestselling author Leonard Goldberg's Daughter of Sherlock Holmes series, The Abduction of Pretty Penny finds Joanna and the Watsons on the tail of an infamous killer. Joanna and the Watsons are called in by the Whitechapel Playhouse to find Pretty Penny, a lovely, young actress who has gone missing without reason or notice. While on their search, the trio is asked by Scotland Yard to join in the hunt for a vicious murderer whose method resembles that of Jack The Ripper. It soon becomes clear that The Ripper has reemerged after a 28-year absence and is once again murdering young prostitutes in Whitechapel. Following a line of subtle clues, Joanna quickly reasons that Pretty Penny has been taken capture by the killer. But as Joanna moves closer to learning his true identity, the killer sends her a letter indicating her young son Johnny will be the next victim to die. Time is running out, and Joanna has no choice but to devise a most dangerous plan which will bring her face-to-face with the killer. It is the only chance to protect her son and rescue Pretty Penny, and save both from an agonizing death. The Abduction of Pretty Penny is a wonderful new entry in a series that the Historical Novel Society calls “one of the best Sherlock Holmes series since Laurie R. King’s Mary Russell books."

Download or read book Mystery in Acambaro written by Charles H. Hapgood and published by Adventures Unlimited Press. This book was released on 1999-12 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Acambaro collection comprises hundreds of clay figurines that are apparently thousands of years old; however, they depict such bizarre animals and scenes that most archaeologists dismiss them as an elaborate hoax. The collection shows humans interacting with dinosaurs and various other 'monsters' such as horned men. Both Hapgood and Earl Stanley Gardner were convinced that the figurines from Acambaro were authentic ancient artifacts that indicated that men and dinosaurs had cohabited together in the recent past, and that dinosaurs had not become extinct many millions of years ago as commonly thought. David Hatcher Childress writes a lengthy introduction concerning Acambaro, the latest testing, and other evidence of 'living' dinosaurs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Long Arm Apparently he had no associates. Once when he lifted his hat, startled by a rare greeting from a stranger in the marble corridor of the ground floor, I noticed that his hair was long, and curled slightly at the temples; also that it had a strange tint of red in its darkness. He was retiring almost to taciturn ity, and beyond his scarcely perceptible response to the salutations of the elevator boys, I had never heard him speak. I had mentioned this to Jennie, describing the man who had so impressed me. I was surprised to see how the mere suggestion of such a personality had power to excite an interest in her gentle disposition. She begged me to learn more of him, but I was never able to carry to her laughing curiosity anything beyond the fact of his presence, and its intimation of mystery.
