Download or read book The Red Line written by Christopher Knowles and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2017-04-30 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Red Line is the story of a train journey from London to Hong Kong. It is set in 1981, the year Christopher made the first of twenty-four such journeys as a tour guide, when the Cold War was still very much a fact of life. Although China appeared to be on the brink of significant change, no one could know for certain; Poland was stirring but the prospect of change in the USSR and its other allies seemed remote. This made a journey by train across that landscape particularly fascinating, because by using standard, scheduled services that together created one of the longest possible railway routes, one was necessarily immersed in the various countries in ways that otherwise would have been impossible. Equally fascinating were the reactions of Western travelers to finding themselves incarcerated for weeks on end in the eccentric world behind the Iron Curtain.In order to give the journey some coherence, the most memorable events over those years have been condensed into a single journey and the most notable personalities, plucked from various times and places, have been thrown together. To emphasize the fact that these events took place in the recent past, and to be able to show how extraordinarily quickly the world has changed in the few intervening years, the story is told by a narrator. Everything that occurs is true, although some circumstances have been slightly adapted for the sake of fluency and names of individuals have been changed.

Download or read book War Bug written by Henry G. Brinton and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-02-29 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States is more fractured today than it has been since the Civil War. What hope do we have for the healing of our communities, shattered by a global pandemic and a toxic political environment? War Bug opens a window on the riverfront town of Occoquan, Virginia, and offers glimpses of social upheaval through chapters that alternate between the nineteenth and twenty-first centuries. In 1862, Quaker resident Ann Bagley fears that her sons will abandon their pacifism and join the newly established Confederate army. Troops march through the town and shots are fired, enflaming secessionists and Unionists alike. Many pledge their support to the South and send their sons to fight, while others favor the North and take stands as abolitionists. In 2022, Harley Camden, the pastor of struggling Riverside Methodist Church, fears that civil war will return to Occoquan. Facing cultural and political polarization, he tries to care for his congregation and keep the peace, even as he lends a hand in the archaeological dig of a Quaker house with a mysterious grave. But when people begin to die in acts of brutal violence, he encounters an evil that is deeper than history and more deadly than partisan strife.

Download or read book Journey to the Center of Mars written by Robert Wilton Dale and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2006-01-11 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This, the first part of an adventure to surpass all adventures, takes you to the near, possible, future, to the far edges of hope and mankinds dreams. Why are we here and what are we to this vast universe that embraces us so tightly. An attempt to realize this is the bulk of this work. We begin with the near future of space commerce. We will seek material value in space, of course. We have and certainly will find great wonderment as we explore this new wilderness left to us by chance or divinity? This is the question we, secretly, seek most. Out past Mars, in the asteroid belt that encircles our sun, a scab mining ship picks out an asteroid to dig for what valuables it may contain. This orbiting mountain of rock is, as it turns out, a very exceptional find. Our mining crew of seven set out for normal operations, but normal is not to be. They are being watched by a hostile group of strict union bonded spacers looking to pirate our barely virtuous heros. War between the factions involved, is but a minuscule mistake away, as always and the find made by the scab crew will change mankinds space capabilities forever. Join the adventure and experience the real hazards that humankind will endeavor to take possession of our new and open wilderness.
