Book excerpt: Best Books of 2016 BOSTON GLOBE * THE ATLANTIC From the acclaimed bestselling author of The Information and Chaos comes this enthralling history of time travel—a concept that has preoccupied physicists and storytellers over the course of the last century. James Gleick delivers a mind-bending exploration of time travel—from its origins in literature and science to its influence on our understanding of time itself. Gleick vividly explores physics, technology, philosophy, and art as each relates to time travel and tells the story of the concept's cultural evolutions—from H.G. Wells to Doctor Who, from Proust to Woody Allen. He takes a close look at the porous boundary between science fiction and modern physics, and, finally, delves into what it all means in our own moment in time—the world of the instantaneous, with its all-consuming present and vanishing future.

Nordic professor Erik Jonsson lived a life of dull routine: predictable, consistent, and alone. That was until Tone Thorgilsdottir showed up in class. Awakening long dormant passions, Tone captures Erik’s heart, unleashing a craving and desire he’d never felt before. A winning Time Travel lottery ticket adds to the excitement and the two lovers decide to head back to the time of King Alfred the Great and find a priest to officiate their marriage. Unfortunately, a glitch in the Time Machine sends them back a hundred years earlier... to Lindisfarne… just as Vikings attack the monastery. In the ensuing confusion and battle, Eric is left behind. Now Tone must find a way to go back in time to rescue him… that is, if he’s still alive.

This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Travel in the Two Last Centuries of Three Generations Travelling on the Continent and in this country, apart from its temporary dislocation by the war, is a matter of ease, convenience and speed nowadays, and it is interesting to look back upon the conditions under which our grandfathers made their journeys, and the way in which their travelling experiences reflected the historical situation of the times. Crossing the Channel in the days of the sailing ship was no light matter, and the stage coach was a very different means of travel from the railway carriage and the motor-car of to-day. The editor has the good fortune to possess, among family papers, several records of journeys in England and abroad undertaken by his parents, grandparents and great-grandparents, and ventures to put some selections of them forward in these pages as glimpses of the altering travel conditions from the period before to the latter part of the nineteenth century, and as interesting sidelights on European history during these changing times. Some of the journeys are peaceful and uneventful, but one nearly ended in disaster. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
