Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diary of a Motor Journey From Chicago to Los Angeles, 1922 If you have thought of driving across the continent and have hesitated because of supposed dangers, don't hesitate any longer on that account. Anyone who can drive a car can make the trip. It is not necessary to carry a gun. Women have made the journey alone. The mountain roads are not difficult nor dangerous. Only a little care is required. Even the desert, at which many balk, is no more difficult than other parts of the trip. The road across the Mojave is fairly good, and I bid you join the ranks of the transcontinental motorists.

Download or read book My American Diary Illustrated Edition written by Clare Sheridan and published by Echo Library. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sheridan (nee Frewen, 1885-1970) was an English sculptor, journalist and writer known primarily for making busts of famous sitters and for her diaries recounting her world travels. She was a cousin of Sir Winston Churchill with whom she enjoyed an amicable relationship, though her support for the October Revolution of 1917 caused them to break ranks politically. Among her circle of friends were Princess Margaret of Sweden, Lord and Lady Mountbatten, Lady Diana Cooper, Vita Sackville-West and Vivien Leigh. One of her daughters died in infancy in 1914 and her husband was killed in action in 1915, a few days after the birth of their third child, a son. In 1920 she was invited to Russia to make busts of notable revolutionaries including Lenin and Trotsky, and it was rumoured that she had affairs with more than one of her sitters. In 1921 she visited America where she embarked on a love affair with Charlie Chaplin and this diary published in 1922 gives an account of her time there. Illustrated with photographs.

Download or read book Middlesex written by Jeffrey Eugenides and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2011-07-18 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanning eight decades and chronicling the wild ride of a Greek-American family through the vicissitudes of the twentieth century, Jeffrey Eugenides’ witty, exuberant novel on one level tells a traditional story about three generations of a fantastic, absurd, lovable immigrant family -- blessed and cursed with generous doses of tragedy and high comedy. But there’s a provocative twist. Cal, the narrator -- also Callie -- is a hermaphrodite. And the explanation for this takes us spooling back in time, through a breathtaking review of the twentieth century, to 1922, when the Turks sacked Smyrna and Callie’s grandparents fled for their lives. Back to a tiny village in Asia Minor where two lovers, and one rare genetic mutation, set our narrator’s life in motion. Middlesex is a grand, utterly original fable of crossed bloodlines, the intricacies of gender, and the deep, untidy promptings of desire. It’s a brilliant exploration of divided people, divided families, divided cities and nations -- the connected halves that make up ourselves and our world.
Download or read book The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life written by Erving Goffman and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2021-09-29 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A notable contribution to our understanding of ourselves. This book explores the realm of human behavior in social situations and the way that we appear to others. Dr. Goffman uses the metaphor of theatrical performance as a framework. Each person in everyday social intercourse presents himself and his activity to others, attempts to guide and cotnrol the impressions they form of him, and employs certain techniques in order to sustain his performance, just as an actor presents a character to an audience. The discussions of these social techniques offered here are based upon detailed research and observation of social customs in many regions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout most of the twentieth century, electric propulsion was considered the technology of the future. Now, the future has arrived. This important new book explains the fundamentals of electric propulsion for spacecraft and describes in detail the physics and characteristics of the two major electric thrusters in use today, ion and Hall thrusters. The authors provide an introduction to plasma physics in order to allow readers to understand the models and derivations used in determining electric thruster performance. They then go on to present detailed explanations of: Thruster principles Ion thruster plasma generators and accelerator grids Hollow cathodes Hall thrusters Ion and Hall thruster plumes Flight ion and Hall thrusters Based largely on research and development performed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and complemented with scores of tables, figures, homework problems, and references, Fundamentals of Electric Propulsion: Ion and Hall Thrusters is an indispensable textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students who are preparing to enter the aerospace industry. It also serves as an equally valuable resource for professional engineers already at work in the field.
