Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Burma Such, in a word, is the story of Burma. To the Englishman it may be a drama; to the Burman it will ever be a pwe. It is a play of strong passions, of absorbing human interest. But its indescribable charm is derived from the shifting effects of Nature's scenery no less than from the play and interplay of human action. Before, therefore, we embark upon the story, let us, briefly and hurriedly, survey the scene of it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Steal the Menu written by Raymond Sokolov and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2013-05-14 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four decades of memories from a gastronome who witnessed the food revolution from the (well-provisioned) trenches—a delicious tour through contemporary food history. When Raymond Sokolov became food editor of The New York Times in 1971, he began a long, memorable career as restaurant critic, food historian, and author. Here he traces the food scene he reported on in America and abroad, from his pathbreaking dispatches on nouvelle cuisine chefs like Paul Bocuse and Michel Guérard in France to the rise of contemporary American food stars like Thomas Keller and Grant Achatz, and the fruitful collision of science and cooking in the kitchens of El Bulli in Spain, the Fat Duck outside London, and Copenhagen’s gnarly Noma. Sokolov invites readers to join him as a privileged observer of the most transformative period in the history of cuisine with this personal narrative of the sensual education of an accidental gourmet. We dine out with him at temples of haute cuisine like New York’s Lutèce but also at a pioneering outpost of Sichuan food in a gas station in New Jersey, at a raunchy Texas chili cookoff, and at a backwoods barbecue shack in Alabama, as well as at three-star restaurants from Paris to Las Vegas. Steal the Menu is, above all, an entertaining and engaging account of a tumultuous period of globalizing food ideas and frontier-crossing ingredients that produced the unprecedentedly rich and diverse way of eating we enjoy today.
Download or read book Yachow and Burma written by William M. Upcraft and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Yachow and Burma: The Escape, the Return Sze-Chuen is the westernmost province of China, bordering on Tibet. The American Baptist mission in this province was opened by Rev. Wm. M. Upcraft, who had traveled extensively through Central China distributing the word of God. He encountered in this work many dangers - once, like Paul, being stoned and left for dead outside the city walls. The mission was begun in 1889, with the station at Sui fu. Kiating and Yachow were opened later. In 1893 Mr. Upcraft visited many churches in this country and secured reinforcements for the West China mission. Just following the Japanese-Chinese war, and possibly in some remote way connected with that war, uprisings against foreigners began in various parts of China in the early summer of 1895. At Kucheng, a number of missionaries, eight or more, were killed. The missionaries were not hated on account of their religion, but simply as foreigners. The literati and official classes stirred up the credulous mob. Our missionaries were all driven out of West China. Some came East, but Mr. Upcraft and Mr. Openshaw abode still on the eastern edge of Sze-Chuen, and after a visit to the mission, made their way through Tonkin and around by sea to Burma. They have since left Burma, and by the time this book comes into the readers' hands, they will doubtless be back again in West China and once more at work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Civil Servant in Burma This is not a guide-book, or a history, or a study of manners and customs. It is a plain story of official life for more than thirty years. It does not compete with any of the books already written about Burma, except, perhaps, the monumental work of General F ytche. While pursuing as a rule a track of chronological order, I have not hesitated to wander into by-paths of dissertation and description. I could not write without attempting to give frag mentary impressions of the people and their character. As far as possible I have limited my narrative to events within my own knowledge my judgments are based on my own observation.

His first service there dates, I believe, from 1886, and although he returned for a short time to the Punjab, where he filled high offices with great distinction, the services of his later years were chiefly in Burma, where he presided over the administration for an unusually long period.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Leopard's Leap: A Story of Burma The good ship Devonshire of the County Line was making her way with sober haste through the tepid waters of the Red Sea. It was ten o'clock of an October night and the heat was tempered by a southerly breeze. The after-dinner promenaders had ceased their uneasy effort to get exercise without colliding with each other or with the chairs that strewed the deck, and had settled down to cards, conversation or the knitting of mufflers for the Indian troops in France. A few passengers here and there leaned over the side to watch the phosphorescent waters rolling like liquid silver from the ship's dark bows, or to admire the graceful proportions of the Unicorn, which they fondly believed, on the assurance of a waggish officer, to be the Southern Cross.
