Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evelyn's Folly: A Novel HE Scotch express was just starting. It was a bright, ii warm afternoon in September, and the railway sta tion at Euston Square looked more cheerful than usual. There was the usual noise, bustle, and excitement. Cab after cab had driven up, deposited its load of passengers and luggage, and driven away; there was a ringing of bells, and the confused voices of men, porters growing angry as they became busy; and the express from London to Aberdeen was to start at three, and it wanted now but one quarter of an hour. There were not quite so many passengers as usual. Perhaps the saddest group was that composed of five little motherless children dressed in deep mourning, who were ao companied by a careworn, haggard man with a deep crape band round his hat.

Book excerpt: "Compulsively readable."—New York Times Book Review From Stuart Turton, author of The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, comes an extraordinary new locked-room murder mystery. A murder on the high seas. A remarkable detective duo. A demon who may or may not exist. It's 1634, and Samuel Pipps, the world's greatest detective, is being transported to Amsterdam to be executed for a crime he may, or may not, have committed. Traveling with him is his loyal bodyguard, Arent Hayes, who is determined to prove his friend innocent. Among the other guests is Sara Wessel, a noblewoman with a secret. But no sooner is their ship out to sea than devilry begins to blight the voyage. A strange symbol appears on the sail. A dead leper stalks the decks. Livestock dies in the night. And then the passengers hear a terrible voice, whispering to them in the darkness, promising three unholy miracles, followed by a slaughter. First an impossible pursuit. Second an impossible theft. And third an impossible murder. Could a demon be responsible for their misfortunes? With Pipps imprisoned, only Arent and Sara can solve a mystery that stretches back into their past and now threatens to sink the ship, killing everybody on board. Shirley Jackson meets Sherlock Holmes in this chilling thriller of supernatural horror, occult suspicion, and paranormal mystery on the high seas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Miranda strives to please others. Her misogynistic family. Her abusive husband. She hid her elemental energy and gave up her dreams—including her first love, Matthew Trellis—to keep them all happy. She thought that's how life was supposed to be. Then she met her long-lost sister, Matilda, and found herself caught up in the Trellis family and their Circle. Matthew strives to be a good person. He spends his days teaching underprivileged children and his nights teaching English as a second language to immigrants. He works hard to keep his Chaos power under control. He let Miranda go once for her own good. He can do it again. Can't he? The rest of the Trellis clan would happily interfere in Matthew's love life. But they have other things on their minds: Sam is worried. He knows their Circle is lost... but he's not sure what that means or how to fix it. And someone even more powerful knows how to find them… The Pillars is the fifth book in the bestselling Building the Circle series of psychic paranormal romance novels. It starts with The Call, a laugh-out-loud funny rom-com that'll introduce you to the loving and lovable Trellis brothers. The Pillars features some nasty pieces of work. But it also has elemental magic, psychics, a big happy family, and a heartwarming happily-ever-after for the main couple that'll leave you grinning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of the History of Sustainability is a far-reaching survey of the deep and contemporary history of sustainability. This innovative resource will help to define the history of sustainability as an identifiable field. It provides a unique resource for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and scholars, and delivers essential context for understanding the current state and future path of the sustainability movement. The history of sustainability is an increasingly important domain within the discipline of history, which draws on an interdisciplinary set of fields, ranging from energy studies, transportation, and urbanism to environmental history, economics, and philosophy. Key sections in this handbook cover the historiography of sustainability, resilience and collapse in historical societies, the deep roots of sustainability (seventeenth century to nineteenth century), the recent history of sustainability (twentieth century to present), and core issues and key debates in sustainability. This handbook is an invaluable research and teaching tool for those interested in the history and development of sustainability and an essential resource for the many sustainability studies programs that now exist in the world's universities.

Download or read book Evelyn s Husband written by and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2010-12 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The critique of white male society that Charles W. Chesnutt launched in A Marrow of Tradition continues in Evelyn's Husband, one of six manuscripts left unpublished when this highly regarded African American innovator died. Set in Boston society, on a deserted Caribbean island, and in Brazil, Evelyn's Husbandis the story of two men--one old, one young--in love with the same young woman. Late in his career Chesnutt embarked on a period of experimentation with eccentric forms, finishing this hybrid of a romance and adventure story just before publishing his last work, The Colonel's Dream. In Evelyn's Husband, Chesnutt crafts a parody examining white male roles in the early 1900s, a time when there was rampant anxiety over the subject. In Boston, the older man is left at the altar when his bride-to-be flees and marries a young architect. Later, trapped on an island together, the jilted lover and the young husband find a productive middle ground between the dilettante and the primitive. Along with A Business Career, this novel marks Chesnutt's achievement in being among the first African American authors to defy the color barrier and write fiction with a white cast of main characters.

Download or read book Hedy s Folly written by Richard Rhodes and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-08-07 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pulitzer Prize-winning author Richard Rhodes delivers a remarkable story of science history: how a ravishing film star and an avant-garde composer invented spread-spectrum radio, the technology that made wireless phones, GPS systems, and many other devices possible. Beginning at a Hollywood dinner table, Hedy's Folly tells a wild story of innovation that culminates in U.S. patent number 2,292,387 for a "secret communication system." Along the way Rhodes weaves together Hollywood’s golden era, the history of Vienna, 1920s Paris, weapons design, music, a tutorial on patent law and a brief treatise on transmission technology. Narrated with the rigor and charisma we've come to expect of Rhodes, it is a remarkable narrative adventure about spread-spectrum radio's genesis and unlikely amateur inventors collaborating to change the world.
