Book excerpt: The Great Lone Land A Narrative of Travel and Adventure in the North-West of Ame by William Francis Butler Peace--Rumours of War-Retrenchment--A Cloud in the far West--A Distant Settlement-Personal--The Purchase System--A Cable-gram--Away to the West IT was a period of universal peace over the wide world. There was not a shadow of war in the North, the South, the East, or the West. There was not even a Bashote in South Africa, a Beloochee in Scinde, a Bhoottea, a Burmese, or any other of the many "eses" or "eas" forming the great colonial empire of Britain who seemed capable of kicking up the semblance of a row. Newspapers had never been so dull; illustrated journals had to content themselves with pictorial representations of prize pigs, foundation stones, and provincial civic magnates. Some of the great powers were bent upon disarming; several influential persons of both sexes had decided, at a meeting held for the suppression of vice, to abolish standing armies. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Lone Land: A Narrative of Travel and Adventure in the North West of America Upon his return to his tribe he remained silent and impassive his days were spent in smoking, his evenings in quiet contemplation he spoke not of his adventures in the land of the great white medicine-man. But at length the tribe grew discontented; they had expected to hear the recital of the wonders seen by their chief, and 10! He had come back to them as silent as though his wander ings had ended on the Coteau of the Missouri, or by the borders of the kitchi-gami. Their discontent found vent in words.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of Adventure, Told by Adventurers This volume, like the four others in the same series, was suggested at the Librarians Congress in Boston. It has been prepared in the wish to teach boys and girls how to use themselves the treasures, now at their hands, in public libraries. The public spirit, the munificence often, with which these libraries have been sustained ought to be loyally followed up by the friends of young people by careful effort to give them good habits in finding and enjoying the books they contain. It is not reasonable to throw on the librarians the work of introducing these books to young readers; but it is the duty of all those who are in any way charged with the interests of education to show to such readers how they can choose for themselves. It will be seen, therefore, that my object is not to rewrite the tales of adventure, here referred to, nor is it my wish to present them in such form as to satisfy the reader. Rather I have hoped that he may not be satisfied. I should be glad, as Sam Weller was, to make him wish for more, trusting that then, like Oliver Twist, he may go and ask for more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ten Years Wild Sports in Foreign: Lands or Travels in the Eighties The exploration or adventure, which I have included in this volume of my travels, will at least serve the purpose of comparing the different countries described from a sporting point of view, from the fact of their having been the experience of a single individual, within the short period of a decade, and partly in the intervals of a military service which included a campaign. If from a literary point of view the chapters appear to be of varying, and I hope increas ing merit, that fact must be ascribed to the different epochs at which they were written. Some have been condensed from my contributions to certain periodicals with the kind permission of the Editors, such as those of Land and Water, Tile Alpine Journal, and The Field. I can at least claim for them the advantage of strict fidelity to fact, and of having been mostly penned upon the spot.

Download or read book Worlds to Explore written by Mark Jenkins and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2007-04-17 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Polar fleece, titanium, and GPS have forever changed the face of exploration. Today an explorer can make a phone call from the top of Mount Everest and geo-locate himself in the thickest rain forest or the widest desert. Yet despite these advances, few modern adventures get close to the charm and romance of "The Desert Road to Turkestan," "Mysterious Temples of the Jungle," and "Airplanes Come to the Isles of Spice." In those bygone days, the pages of National Geographic were as close as most people could get to high adventure and faraway lands-and here's a chance to recapture them. Alongside noteworthy names like Robert Peary, Amelia Earhart, and Teddy Roosevelt, other less famous travelers take us on long-forgotten trips to places few Americans had gone. We follow as "An American Girl Cycles Across Transylvania," trek "A Thousand Miles Along the Great Wall of China," and glide "By Felucca Down the Nile." Introduced by brief essays that provide context and perspective, these engaging, engrossing selections speak for themselves-and trace the National Geographic Society's growth as it explored the unknown and brought it to readers eager for knowledge of "the world and all that is in it"--Publisher's description.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shamrock and Thistle: Or, Young America in Ireland and Scotland; A Story of Travel and Adventure It is not so easy to convey useful and valuable information, even in regard to foreign lands, as it is to tell an interesting or an exciting story. The plan of this and the subsequent volumes of the series includes a certain amount of geo graphical and historical matter, which may not be as accept able to the young reader as exciting incidents of personal adventure; but it is hoped there will be enough of the latter to season the former, and render the useful and valuable palatable to the reader. With more of fear and trembling, therefore, than usual, the author presents shamrock and thistle to his friends, h0ping that its story will please, While its historical and descriptive pages will instruct and benefit them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Library of Universal Adventure by Sea and Land: Including Original Narratives and Authentic Stories of Personal Prowess and Peril in All the Waters and Regions of the Globe From the Year 79 A. D. To the Year 1888 A. D A casual glance at the contents and their arrangement will give some no tion Of the variety and extent of the work. For the sake of clearness we have distributed the material geographically, and in each division we have given the narratives a chronological sequence, so that the volume is in some sort at once a map and a history, fragmentary of course, but useful, we be lieve, to any reader wishing to place in time and space the great adventurers whose names occur in the stories Of nations. It was part of the pleasure we took in our work that these adventures, which seemed so fragmentary and detached, became more and more distinctly parts of the common life Of the race; and we hope that with the help Of the plan we have adopted, with the dates and the divisions we have used, it will have the same interest for our readers. At the same time we feel that the apparently desultory succession of the narratives will contribute to the delight of those who like to vary the excitements purveyed to them, and who may read the book in sequence with the certainty of a continual change in the character of its contents, from adventure to adventure, although these follow one another in each division with due regard to the order of their occurrence in point of time.
