Book excerpt: As a Captain in the fledgling American Navy of 1801, young Lowell West sets sail on his first command with little hope of distinguishing himself in battle. Instead of a dull campaign, however, sealed orders, veiled political tension, and unseen threats from a more dangerous sea power throw West into the midst of a treacherous, daring mission right into the teeth of the powerful Spanish navy. The clash of sword against sword, the fury of the tumultuous ocean, and the thunder of rolling cannon broadsides come vividly alive in this nautical adventure of the most engaging kind!

Download or read book Castine written by Castine Historical Society and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 1996-05-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Castine is a delightfully tranquil village located on a peninsula bounded by the Bagaduce River on one side and Penobscot Bay on the other. It makes a powerful impression upon all who visit: indeed the very name Castine conjures up images of verdant landscapes, of sea-washed shores, and of life in a serene Maine village; images so magical that they become ingrained in one's memory. Castine is a charming, peaceful place, but it has not always been so. Visited as early as 1604 by European explorers and traders, Castine has since been known as the "Battleground of Four Nations" because French, Dutch, English, and American soldiers have fought for control of this strategically important place over the years. The remains of two forts-- Fort George and Fort Madison--stand testimony to the part that Castine played in America's formative wars.

Book excerpt: Created by the hugely successful teacher Brian Mayne, Self Mapping uses a combination of words and images to create a Self Map. Connecting the left brain and the right brain, this unique technique will help anyone to discover their true potential. Self Mapping will take you on a journey of Self discovery, through the stages of Self Awareness, Self Belief, Self Image, Self Esteem, Self Acceptance, Self Love, Self Actualization, Self Integration and Self Renewal. Each of these stages are covered in individual chapters, and steps for creating your Self Map are given at the end of each chapter. The system is designed to help you become the best you, in outlook, attitude and actions. As you work through the book you will create your own Self Map, using the template provided along with a combination of words and images. Creating your Self Map can happen in a single hour-long session, or be spread over many sessions and several days. Once completed it serves both as a conscious reminder about who you choose to become and a subconscious command to make it happen. By regularly meditating on your Self Map you can integrate your Low-self ego with your High-Self spirit to become your True Self; your natural and authentic self, or to put it simply, be yourself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The schooner Bowdoin was designed and built in 1921 in Maine under the direction of naval officer and explorer Donald MacMillan. She is the only American schooner built specifically for Arctic exploration, and has sailed above the Arctic Circle 21 times.

Download or read book SubSig written by David H. Reynhout and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2002-07-04 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For nearly a century, the name Submarine Signal meant something special to its thousands of employees, to its many competitors, and to practitioners of the art of underwater acoustics the world over. From its modest beginnings in 1901as Submarine Signal Company, through its elevation to a full division of Raytheon Company in 1963, to its submergence into a new organization in 1998, SubSig, as it was known, was a vital part of the free world's defense, an important contributor to underwater acoustics and undersea technology. Though never the subject of an "organizational excellence" survey, it became home and family to the thousands of employees who made SubSig what it was—unassuming yet confident, relaxed yet hard-working, but with an accommodating persistence. History will record that SubSig was a pioneer in sonar and radar technologies. This book is an attempt at describing the events and people that made it a unique place.
