Download or read book The Sahara written by Pierre Loti and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-12-05 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pierre Loti's novella, 'The Sahara', paints a vivid picture of a desolate city on the coast of West Africa, cut off from the sea by a ridge of breakers. The only means of communication with the outside world are long pirogues manned by muscular and agile workers who row standing up, bringing mail and supplies to the isolated city. The city's isolation has caused it to stagnate, leaving its inhabitants feeling cut off from the rest of the world. Loti's powerful descriptions of the harsh desert landscape and the people who inhabit it create a hauntingly beautiful backdrop for the story's exploration of isolation and stagnation.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Original publication: 1863 Book 1 A scholar and explorer, Dr. Samuel Fergusson, accompanied by his manservant Joe and his friend professional hunter Richard "Dick" Kennedy, sets out to travel across the African continent — still not fully explored — with the help of a balloon filled with hydrogen. The trip begins in Zanzibar on the east coast, and passes across Lake Victoria, Lake Chad, Agadez, Timbuktu, Djenné and Ségou to St Louis in modern-day Senegal on the west coast. The book describes the unknown interior of Africa near modern-day Central African Republic as a desert, when it is actually savanna. A good deal of the initial exploration is to focus on the finding of the source of the Nile. The second leg is to link up the other explorers. There are numerous scenes of adventure, composed of either a conflict with a native or a conflict with the environment, including Rescuing a missionary from tribal sacrifice, running out of water while stranded without a wind over the Sahara, an attack on the balloon by bearded vultures, rescuing Joe later, and narrowly escaping the remnants of a militant army as the balloon dwindles to nothingness with the loss of hydrogen. Chapters 44 Words: 91,000 This book is great for schools, teachers and students or for the casual reader, and makes a wonderful addition to any classic literary library ABOUT US: At Pure Snow Publishing we have taken the time and care into formatting this book to make it the best possible reading experience.

Download or read book The Sahara written by Eamonn Gearon and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2011-10-19 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sahara is the quintessence of isolation, epitomizing both remoteness and severity of environment unlike any other place on the face of the earth. Replete with myths and fictions, it is a wild land, dotted with oases and camel trains trudging through sand dunes that roll like the waves on a sea, as far as the distant horizon. But this is just part of the picture. The largest desert in the world, the Sahara ranges from the river Nile running through Egypt and Sudan in the east, to the Atlantic coast from Morocco to Mauritania in the west; stretching from the Atlas Mountains and the shores of the Mediterranean in the north, to the fluid Sahelian fringe that delineates the desert in the south. Invaders and traders have come and gone for millennia, but the Sahara is also the place that some people call home. While larger than the United States, this vast area contains only three million people. Africans and Arabs, Berber and Bedu, Tuareg and Tebu. Eamonn Gearon explores the history, culture and terrain of a place whose name is familiar to all, but known to few.

Book excerpt: “A mystery of remarkable scope, bristling with intelligence, beauty, and humanity. It is, quite simply: stunning.” —Gillian Flynn, author of Gone Girl "A stunning, achingly beautiful and gripping mystery. Full of page-turning suspense, intrigue, and secrets...I loved it.” —Chris Whitaker, author of All the Colors of the Dark An overwhelmed new mother becomes obsessed with the unsolved disappearance of a young girl from her small Texas hometown—and unearths her own family’s dark secret. It’s 2011 and Deecie Jeffries’s missing person’s case in Austin, Texas, is still cold. New mom Bee, struggling with postpartum depression, is living in Portland, Maine, having left Austin–and those memories–far behind. Until Leo, her childhood crush and her estranged twin Gus’s best friend, suddenly resurfaces, drawing Bee back into their shared past. Bee’s predictable life is upended, pushing her to return to her childhood home and piece together a neighborhood’s shattered history. Bee becomes consumed with a need to uncover the truth about Deecie’s disappearance and what happened to the families who lived across the field from one another—Gus, Leo, and their mothers: Mary, a homemaker, whose only escape is the local community theater, and Diana, a serious academic dedicated to her studies. Told in multiple perspectives with two different timelines, The Undercurrent is a gripping portrait of motherhood, obsession, broken family bonds, and buried secrets.
Book Synopsis The Stuff of Science Fiction by : Gary Westfahl
Download or read book The Stuff of Science Fiction written by Gary Westfahl and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2022-09-23 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While students and general readers typically cannot relate to esoteric definitions of science fiction, they readily understand the genre as a literature that characteristically deals with subjects such as new inventions, space, robot and aliens. This book looks at science fiction in precisely this manner, with twenty-one chapters that each deal with a subject that is repeatedly addressed in science fiction of recent centuries. Based on a packet of original essays that the author assembled for his classes, the book could serve as a supplemental textbook in science fiction classes, but also contains material of interest to science fiction scholars and others devoted to the genre. In some cases, chapters offer thorough surveys of numerous works involving certain subjects, such as imagined vehicles, journeys beneath the Earth and undersea adventures, discovering intriguing patterns in the ways that various writers developed their ideas. When comprehensive coverage of ubiquitous topics such as robots, aliens and the planet Mars is impossible, chapters focus on major themes referencing selected texts. A conclusion discusses other science fiction subjects that were omitted for various reasons, and a bibliography lists additional resources for the study of science fiction in general and the topics of each chapter.
Book Synopsis Love for One Another by : Abe Sargent
Download or read book Love for One Another written by Abe Sargent and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-03-22 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who are you? What are the key parts of who you are that you carry with you? How do you identify yourself? Family? Friends? Where you live? Where you work? And what are those key identities? For Abe Sargent, those key identities are being a Christian; enjoying "nerd" activities; being a man; growing up in West Virginia; and living with a genetic, progressively worsening, neurological condition called Huntington's disease. These key identities infuse who we are. Join Abe's journey as he chronicles key times in his life, from childhood to adolescence. He discusses the lessons learned and how he has embraced the challenges of dealing with affliction as well the poverty of southern West Virginia and more. He discusses the challenges of being a gamer and "nerd" as a Christian. And he uses his knowledge of growing up as a Christian to infuse his conversations and explorations of life as a child, young adult, and mature adult today. Abe's favorite Bible verse is John 13:14""35: "A new commandment I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so also you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another." Abe uses examples of his own life to gently challenge himself and us. Are we living that? Is there true love for one another?
