Download or read book Horizon written by Barry Lopez and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2019-03-19 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: THE NEW YORK TIMES • NPR • THE GUARDIAN From pole to pole and across decades of lived experience, National Book Award-winning author Barry Lopez delivers his most far-ranging, yet personal, work to date. Horizon moves indelibly, immersively, through the author’s travels to six regions of the world: from Western Oregon to the High Arctic; from the Galápagos to the Kenyan desert; from Botany Bay in Australia to finally, unforgettably, the ice shelves of Antarctica. Along the way, Lopez probes the long history of humanity’s thirst for exploration, including the prehistoric peoples who trekked across Skraeling Island in northern Canada, the colonialists who plundered Central Africa, an enlightenment-era Englishman who sailed the Pacific, a Native American emissary who found his way into isolationist Japan, and today’s ecotourists in the tropics. And always, throughout his journeys to some of the hottest, coldest, and most desolate places on the globe, Lopez searches for meaning and purpose in a broken world.

Download or read book Beckoning Beyond the Horizon written by Edward G Bottomley and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-04 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Beckoning - Beyond the Horizon' is a sequel to, but very different from 'Beckoning - Poetry of Life'.Taken together, the two, mainly non-fiction books, cover aspects of life which impact most, if not all of us, at some stage.The first significant difference is the inclusion of a black and white photograph opposite each page of writing/poetry. The author was previously a freelance photographer.Each photograph relates to the title opposite, making for an enhanced reading experience. Additionally, all the photographs were shot in the three northwestern states of Mexico - Chihuahua, Sonora and Baja California. As such, they also provide some sense of that part of the world. The area is nicely 'Beyond the Horizon' of the author's home in Sierra Vista, Arizona.The second major difference is the format. The book is the author's creation of a circle of writing where each item moves gradually on from the previous subject until, on reaching the last, one is connected straight back to the first. A sense of this will be gained by scanning the 'Contents' pages. The objective of both books is to provide very condensed and, hopefully, insightful and positive thought stimulation for anyone exploring their personal philosophy of life. For busy people there could be a huge time saving, compared with researching many of the subjects.Both books are indexed for readily accessing any subject of interest. In that sense, reading may be sequential or as research material by finding the specific subject relevant to life events, at any particular time in life.The launch price is at approximately a 25% discount from the retail price from early June 2020 onwards.

Book excerpt: Sometimes, nothing is everything....... Reese has everything. At 47 years old, she is wealthy. stunning, and on the top of every invite list. She lives a brilliant life - enjoying the posh adornments that come with being the wife of a high -powered International Financier. Reese takes her role as an A - list socialite seriously and insures her position by surrounding herself with a staff to deal with the rest of life - the three children she barely knows and the one she “gave away” long ago. But life breaks. And when Reese’s husband Stone is arrested and incarcerated overnight, Reese is forced to be something she’d never imagined - herself. Exiled to real life - Reese struggles to survive with nothing but three strange and resentful children clinging to her back. As an unruly media circus sets out to further destroy the family, Reese faces the unimaginable task of rising from the rubble of her life as the mother she has never been. Here an extraordinary journey of five unique individuals begins. Their story - a raw and extraordinary trip across real and imaginary borders to untangle a broken life - with enchant, frighten, surprise, and inspire you. But in the end the family will encounter something more trying than anything they’ve experienced in a collective lifetime - something that threatens to destroy them all over again. But truly united as a family that has weathered a string of colorful storms mixed with magical miracles they will build a life even more exquisite.

Download or read book Political Wings written by Alun Wyburn-Powell and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2015-04-30 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first biography of Rt. Hon. William Wedgwood Benn DSO, DFC, first Viscount Stansgate, cabinet minister under MacDonald and Attlee, Air Commodore with active service in both World Wars, defector from the Liberals to Labour over his dispute with Lloyd George, and father of Tony Benn. Benn served in the army and RAF during the First World War (when he took part in the first parachute drop behind enemy lines at night) and in the Second World War he reached the rank of acting Air Commodore). His eldest son Michael, heir to the viscountcy, died on active service with the RAF, leaving his second son Tony to inherit the title and a seat in the House of Lords. ??Before his death, Tony Benn gave extensive interviews for this book. His brother, David has also provided interviews and material, as have other members of the family including Stephen Benn (now the third Viscount Stansgate). Extensive paperwork left by William Wedgwood Benn (now in the Parliamentary Archives) including his diary and unfinished, unpublished autobiography were all utilised in the construction of this biography. Alun Wyburn-Powell has managed to construct a biographical study of real force, weaving together snippets from Benn's own private papers with insights from his family and colleagues in order to create an authentic impression of Benn and the times in which he lived.
