Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In December 2004 the Indian Ocean tsunami devastated coastal regions of Sri Lanka. Six months later, Michele Ruth Gamburd returned to the village where she had been conducting research for many years and began collecting residents' stories of the disaster and its aftermath: the chaos and loss of the flood itself; the sense of community and leveling of social distinctions as people worked together to recover and regroup; and the local and national politics of foreign aid as the country began to rebuild. In The Golden Wave, Gamburd describes how the catastrophe changed social identities, economic dynamics, and political structures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cruise of the Golden WaveI turned sharp round. One does not expect to hear one's name bawled out in such a manner when one is taking a walk along the quay of Victoria, hong-kong. Such occurrences happen too seldom ever to have any chance of becoming monotonous. So, as I say, I turned sharp round, and there I saw an old college chum of mine who, last time I saw him, six years ago, was on the point of going up for his final examination in medicine.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: From many miles away in South Korea, Mee Sook ended up in the United States of America. She did not know what the future held for her. But with faith, hope, love, and courage she submitted to what the Creator had in store for her. She survived many ups and downs on her long journey: including learning a new language, adapting to a new culture, and struggling to find a job. She had so little to live on and lost most of her family members while she was so far away. But instead of dwelling on what seemed hard to bear, she continued to count her blessings. Some of her wonderful blessings include her husband, two sons, daughters-in-laws, and grandchildren. Many people who have met with Mee Sook affirm how blessed they are for having met such a positive person. She has written her autobiography to share her "golden wave", the term she uses to describe her life. I feel so blessed for the opportunity to help bring her story to the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wave Woman is the untold story of an adventurer whose zest for life and learning kept her alive for ninety-eight years. Betty Pembroke Heldreich Winstedt was the granddaughter of Mormon pioneers who, after spending an active and athletic childhood in Salt Lake City, moved to Santa Monica with her family and enrolled at USC to study dental hygiene. Betty went on to elope with a man she hardly knew, and to have two daughters. In middle age, Betty finally followed her dream of living near the ocean; she moved to Hawaii and, at age forty-one, took up surfing. She lived and surfed at Waikiki during the golden years of the mid-1950s and was a pioneer surfer at Makaha Beach. She was competitive in early big-wave surfing championships and was among the first women to compete in Lima, Peru, where she won first place. Betty was an Olympic hopeful, a pilot, a mother, a sculptor, a jeweler, a builder, a fisherwoman, an ATV rider, and a potter who lived life her way, dealing with adversity and heartache on her own stoic terms. A love letter from a daughter to her larger-than-life mother, Wave Woman will speak to any woman searching for self-confidence, fulfillment, and happiness.

Book Synopsis Epicentre to Aftermath by : Michael Hutt
Download or read book Epicentre to Aftermath written by Michael Hutt and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Epicentre to Aftermath makes both empirical and conceptual contributions to the growing body of disaster studies literature by providing an analysis of a disaster aftermath that is steeped in the political and cultural complexities of its social and historical context. Drawing together scholars from a range of disciplines, the book highlights the political, historical, cultural, artistic, emotional, temporal, embodied and material dynamics at play in the earthquake aftermath. Crucially, it shows that the experience and meaning of a disaster are not given or inevitable, but are the outcome of situated human agency. The book suggests a whole new epistemology of disaster consequences and their meanings, and dramatically expands the field of knowledge relevant to understanding disasters and their outcomes.

Download or read book Escaping the Giant Wave written by Peg Kehret and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-03-17 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When an earthquake hits on their family vacation, can Kyle and his sister survive the following tsunami? The Worst Vacation Ever! Thirteen-year-old Kyle thought spending a vacation on the Oregon coast with his family would be great. He’d never flown before, and he’s never seen the Pacific Ocean. One evening Kyle is left in charge of his younger sister, BeeBee, while his parents attend an adults-only Salesman of the Year dinner on an elegant yacht. Then the earthquake comes—starting a fire in their hotel! As Kyle and BeeBee fight their way out through smoke and flame, Kyle remembers the sign at the beach that said after an earthquake everyone should go uphill and inland, as far from the ocean as possible. Giant tsunami waves—three or four stories high—can ride in from the sea and engulf anyone who doesn’t escape fast enough. Kyle and BeeBee flee uphill as a tsunami crashes over the beach, the hotel, and the town. The giant wave charges straight up the hillside and through the woods where the children are running for their lives. The perfect vacation has become a nightmare! Somehow Kyle and BeeBee have to outwit nature’s fury and save themselves from tsunami terror.
