Book excerpt: Imagine driving 16,000 miles in 25 days over some of the roughest terrain in the world, at altitudes up to 16,000 feet, where engines and lungs gasp for air. Imagine 500-mile speed trials over rocky mountain tracks, racing against the clock and 95 other cars. Imagine attempting this more than 50 years ago, without GPS or cell phones or modern safety equipment. In April 1970, 241 men and women from more than 20 nations did just that, setting out from London in cars ranging from a dune buggy to family sedans to Porsches, Rolls-Royces, camper vans and a Jeep Wagoneer, determined to get to Mexico City.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Josephine, the daughter of a farmer, is a true country lass. Being brought up in the country gives her an insight into the plight of animals, but it’s only when Josephine learns about the cruel treatment of animals during live export, and the way that foxes are chased and torn to pieces during hunts that she starts to question her lifestyle, and decides that becoming a vegan is her only way forward. Irish Country Girl tells not only the story of Josephine and her father, but all the country folk around them. In anecdotal style, the story follows a range of people, from animal rights activists to psychics, and even covers Jack the Ripper’s mysterious murders along the way. At the heart of Irish Country Girl is an enduring love for the countryside and all it has to offer us, and a reminder that we should protect it and nurture it as it nurtures us in return.

Download or read book Anniston written by Kimberly O'Dell and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2000 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once known as Pine Ankle and sparsely populated with farms, Anniston, Alabama, has seen a multitude of changes over the course of its history. Founded on land that was originally home to Native Americans, the town was created by Samuel Noble and General Daniel Tyler as a "model city" for their Woodstock Iron Company in 1872, and not opened to the public until 1883. Rapid growth in the late nineteenth century brought not only new industries to the area but also Anniston's designation as seat of Calhoun County and an expansion of the entire downtown area. The vintage photographs within these pages reveal what life was like in Anniston in days gone by, highlighting key figures in the town's development as well as the everyday people who have lived and worked in the community for generations. Readers will discover the new industries that sprang up after the Oxford Iron Furnace was burned by Union forces in 1865, and the effects of the population boom of the late nineteenth century. Anniston's homes, schools, and churches are featured in this pictorial retrospective, as well as the town's role as an important military site, with Camp Shipp, Fort McClellan, Pelham Range, and the Anniston Ordinance Depot all located within the town's vicinity over the past century.
