Download or read book Tyne and Weird written by Rob Kilburn and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2020-11-20 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Since man uttered his first word he has been telling stories for entertainment, to serve as warnings and to simply pass the time.' Huddled up against the end of Hadrian's Wall, the county of Tyne and Wear is known for its wealth of historical sites, for castles, the Venerable Bede, and stotty cakes. But did you know about Sunderland's brush with the greatest liar on earth, or the widespread mesmerism of the Victorian era? And what's the connection with all these Americans? This is an eclectic collection of local characters and historical oddities, of short (and tall) tales that perfectly illustrate just how weird Tyne and Wear can truly be.

Download or read book The Northumbrians written by Dan Jackson and published by Hurst & Company. This book was released on 2019 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is the North East the most distinctive region of England? Where do the stereotypes about North Easterners come from, and why are they so often misunderstood? In this wideranging new history of the people of North East England, Dan Jackson explores the deep roots of Northumbrian culture--hard work and heavy drinking, sociability and sentimentality, militarism and masculinity--in centuries of border warfare and dangerous and demanding work in industry, at sea and underground. He explains how the landscape and architecture of the North East explains so much about the people who have lived there, and how a 'Northumbrian Enlightenment' emerged from this most literate part of England, leading to a catalogue of inventions that changed the world, from the locomotive to the lightbulb. Jackson's Northumbrian journey reaches right to the present day, as this remarkable region finds itself caught between an indifferent south and a newly assertive Scotland. Covering everything from the Venerable Bede and the prince-bishops of Durham to Viz and Geordie Shore, this vital new history makes sense of a part of England facing an uncertain future, but whose people remain as distinctive as ever.

Book excerpt: "In this breathtakingly sexy novel, Sharon Cullars invites you into two worlds--modern Chicago and 1879 New York--and into the lives of two lovers whose unforgettable passion transcends time. But will their attraction bring an undying love ... or set in motion a harrowing destiny? Their Desire Is Destiny The minute Chicago journalist Tyne Jensen spots the man with the sexy green eyes at her sister's wedding, she is haunted by the feeling that their meeting is more than chance. There is something familiar about David Carvelli, something that makes her remember another man's hands caressing her, his warm mouth igniting a fire along the sweep of her neck, his voice a deep growl in her ear--I'll never let you go ... we're going to be together forever ... David Carvelli can't explain his reaction to Tyne. Sure, she's a beautiful, intelligent woman with a great smile and skin like cinnamon silk. But there's something more. He isn't just intrigued by Tyne; he's drawn to her--just like the woman in his dreams. A woman he desires and pleasures and loves more than reason ... a woman in grave danger whom he must protect ... possibly even from himself ... Caught up in a white-hot affair neither can resist or understand, Tyne and David have one chance to get it right, to uncover the secrets and sins of the past ... before they are doomed to repeat them ..."--

Download or read book Heavy Jets written by Jim Miller and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-04 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dawn of the jet age unleashed a new breed of military pilots, who operated far beyond the range of their commanders in a never-ending search for adventure and a good time. You never saw these bad boys on an Air Force recruiting poster, but now you'll hear their stories While they met in bars all over the world to drink and share their tales, one place is special-Wake Island, a flyspeck on the vast South Pacific Ocean. Lying on the direct air route from Hawaii to Guam, this island became a historic crossroad for the world's aviators. Here, in a rusted-out little beachfront bar called Drifter's Reef, the best and most memorable anecdotes filled the air. This is hallowed ground; not only for MAC pilots, but also for all international pilots since the first days of Pan Am's flying boats. Author Jim Miller spent many years flying through Wake Island and faithfully recording the stories he heard. Heavy Jets is a fictional account of these tales, revealing the awe-inspiring achievements of generations of heavy-jet pilots from a time now faded. Good winds to you all.
