Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Athletic and strong willed, Princess Emmajin's determined to do what no woman has done before: become a warrior in the army of her grandfather, the Great Khan Khubilai. In the Mongol world the only way to achieve respect is to show bravery and win glory on the battlefield. The last thing she wants is the distraction of the foreigner Marco Polo, who challenges her beliefs in the gardens of Xanadu. Marco has no skills in the "manly arts" of the Mongols: horse racing, archery, and wrestling. Still, he charms the Khan with his wit and story-telling. Emmajin sees a different Marco as they travel across 13th-century China, hunting 'dragons' and fighting elephant-back warriors. Now she faces a different battle as she struggles with her attraction towards Marco and her incredible goal of winning fame as a soldier.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Humans. Earth. It exists in the Milky Way Galaxy. Seemingly, one planet amidst innumerable others in its own galaxy and surrounding galaxies. Earth seems to be the only apparent planet that is hospitable to human & Earth like life forms. What sense is it to have a multitude of universes & planets and only one that bears life? What if Earths’ Milky way Galaxy was just a tiny galaxy on the outskirts of the universe, the boondocks, so to speak. What if closer to the centre of the Universe, we’ll call it the Megaverse, there were hundreds of thousands of planets with hundreds of thousands of life forms and humanoid life forms. Thinking, speaking, living, breathing life forms that are technologically light years ahead of modern day humans. What if…these “Advanced humanoids”, we’ll call them “Neo-Humans”, unlocked the door for creating life? Now what if one of these “Neo-Humans”, even more advanced than the others, decided to go to the “backyard” of the Megaverse, the hidden village, the outskirts of the universe, our little milky way galaxy, and saw what might be a fertile planet, “Earth”, and planted some cells on this planet to observe the evolution of life, maybe in hopes of finding the answer to that timeless question: “Where did we come from?” Maybe , by understanding us, it could understand itself. Maybe this Neo-Human planted a few cells on Earth and watched as those few cells evolved into the billions of different life forms that we know today. Maybe humans are the result of…a science experiment…[Now even if this is true, it doesn’t lessen ones own value or meaning. All of us have value and meaning, life and purpose.] It’s just something I was thinking about one day…Which thus takes us to our new story…[Human]. Please enjoy. -Xanadu

Book excerpt: **A SOURCE FOR MARCO POLO, A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES** Marco Polo's journey from Venice, through Europe and most of Asia, to the court of Kublai Khan in China is one of the most audacious in history. His account of his experiences, known simply as The Travels, uncovered an entirely new world of emperors and concubines, great buildings - 'stately pleasure domes' in Coleridge's dreaming - huge armies and imperial riches. His book shaped the West's understanding of China for hundreds of years. John Man travelled in Marco's footsteps to Xanadu, in search of the truth behind Marco's stories; to separate legend from fact. Drawing on his own journey, archaeology and archival study, John Man paints a vivid picture of the man behind the myth and the true story of the great court of Kublai Khan.

This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the first Gilded Age to the second, a “charming, zippy history . . . a rollicking, informative lesson in real estate, American history, and current events.” —Town & Country Looking at the island of Palm Beach today, with its unmatched mansions, tony shops, and pristine beaches, one is hard pressed to visualize the dense tangle of Palmetto brush and mangroves that it was when visionary entrepreneur and railroad tycoon Henry Flagler first arrived there in April 1893. Trusting his remarkable instincts, he built the Royal Poinciana Hotel within a year, and two years later, what was to become the legendary Breakers—instantly establishing the island as the preferred destination for those who could afford it. Over the next 125 years, Palm Beach has become synonymous with exclusivity—especially its most famous residence, Mar-a-Lago. As Les Standiford relates, the high walls of Mar-a-Lago and other manses like it were seemingly designed to contain scandal within as much as keep intruders out. This book tells the history of this fabled landscape intertwined with the colorful lives of its famous and infamous protagonists, from Flagler’s two wives to architect Addison Mizner, who created Palm Beach’s “Mediterranean look” to heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post and her husband E. F. Hutton, the original residents of Mar-a-Lago. With authoritative detail, Standiford recounts how Marjorie ruled Palm Beach society until her death in 1973, and how the fate of her mansion threatened to tear apart the very fabric of the town until Donald Trump acquired it in 1985. “Edifying, energetic, and captivating.” —Florida Weekly

Download or read book Voyager from Xanadu written by Morris Rossabi and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2010-02-10 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Voyager from Xanadu, a distinguished historian tells the little-known story of the life and travels of the first person from China ever to reach Europe. Portraying one of the most remarkable early encounters between East and West, Morris Rossabi also brings to life the intriguing and turbulent era of the Mongol Empire and the last Crusades. Toward the end of the thirteenth century, at about the time Marco Polo arrived in China, a Christian monk, Rabban Sauma, left it, embarking on a journey that would prove more momentous than he could have dreamed. What began as a religious pilgrimage to the Middle East (supported by the Mongol Emperor, Khubilai Khan) ultimately became an extraordinary diplomatic mission. After several years' eventful stay in Persia, Sauma was dispatched to Europe by Persia's Mongol ruler, the Ilkhan. The monk's task: to persuade the Pope and the Kings of France and England to ally with the Ilkhan and launch a Crusade against their common enemy, the Muslim dynasty that controlled the Holy Land. The mission was a striking early instance of geopolitics on a modern scale. Voyager from Xanadu vividly conjures up the places Sauma visited as he crossed two continents, meeting with monarchs and prelates and seeing everything from a battle to a volcanic eruption to countless grisly relics of long-dead saints. It provides a clear and penetrating analysis of the volatile international situation of the era and its impact on Sauma's embassy. And, of course, Voyager from Xanadu traces the life of an exceptional man, from his comfortable youth, through his unique adventures, to his death far from the land of his birth.
