Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Glaciation of the Puget Sound Region The name Puget Sound was originally given by Vancouver to that portion of these inland arms of the sea which lies south of the Narrows near Tacoma. Vancouver distinguished two other main portions of these inlets; Hoods Canal and Admiralty Inlet. His usage was respected by Wilkes of the United States Exploring Expedition a half century later, but today the term Puget Sound embraces all three portions and is frs quently used to include all marine waters connected with the Strait Of Juan de Fuca south of the International boundary line. In this broad sense it is used in the title of this paper. The depression of Puget Sound is genetically synclinal, be longing to the most western synclinorium of North America. The Gulf of Georgia north of it, and the Willamette valley Of Oregon, the Great Valley Of California and the Gulf of Cali fornis south of it are likewise portions Of this structural trough. There are interruptions in it, and different parts have doubtless had different histories. The Puget Sound depression itself is partially interrupted by a mountainous spur of the Cascades extending diagonally across toward the northwest, just north of the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The mountain range of Van couver Island is perhaps a continuation of the spur. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Magicians of the Gods written by Graham Hancock and published by Coronet. This book was released on 2015-09-10 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Graham Hancock's multi-million bestseller Fingerprints of the Gods remains an astonishing, deeply controversial, wide-ranging investigation of the mysteries of our past and the evidence for Earth's lost civilization. Twenty years on, Hancock returns with a book filled with completely new, scientific and archaeological evidence, which has only recently come to light... The evidence revealed in this book shows beyond reasonable doubt that an advanced civilization that flourished during the Ice Age was destroyed in the global cataclysms between 12,800 and 11,600 years ago. Near the end of the last Ice Age 12,800 years ago, a giant comet that had entered the solar system from deep space thousands of years earlier, broke into multiple fragments. Some of these struck the Earth causing a global cataclysm on a scale unseen since the extinction of the dinosaurs. At least eight of the fragments hit the North American ice cap, while further fragments hit the northern European ice cap. The impacts, from comet fragments a mile wide approaching at more than 60,000 miles an hour, generated huge amounts of heat which instantly liquidized millions of square kilometres of ice, destabilizing the Earth's crust and causing the global Deluge that is remembered in myths all around the world. A second series of impacts, equally devastating, causing further cataclysmic flooding, occurred 11,600 years ago, the exact date that Plato gives for the destruction and submergence of Atlantis. But there were survivors - known to later cultures by names such as 'the Sages', 'the Magicians', 'the Shining Ones', and 'the Mystery Teachers of Heaven'. They travelled the world in their great ships doing all in their power to keep the spark of civilization burning. They settled at key locations - Gobekli Tepe in Turkey, Baalbek in the Lebanon, Giza in Egypt, ancient Sumer, Mexico, Peru and across the Pacific where a huge pyramid has recently been discovered in Indonesia. Everywhere they went these 'Magicians of the Gods' brought with them the memory of a time when mankind had fallen out of harmony with the universe and paid a heavy price. A memory and a warning to the future... For the comet that wrought such destruction between 12,800 and 11,600 years may not be done with us yet. Astronomers believe that a 20-mile wide 'dark' fragment of the original giant comet remains hidden within its debris stream and threatens the Earth. An astronomical message encoded at Gobekli Tepe, and in the Sphinx and the pyramids of Egypt,warns that the 'Great Return' will occur in our time...

Book excerpt: “A unique, significant contribution to our maturing studies of the Clovis era.”—Gary Haynes, author of The Early Settlement of North America: The Clovis Era The Paleoindian Clovis culture is known for distinctive stone and bone tools often associated with mammoth and bison remains, dating back some 13,500 years. While the term Clovis is known to every archaeology student, few books have detailed the specifics of Clovis archaeology. This collection of essays investigates caches of Clovis tools, many of which have only recently come to light. These caches are time capsules that allow archaeologists to examine Clovis tools at earlier stages of manufacture than the broken and discarded artifacts typically recovered from other sites. The studies comprising this volume treat methodological and theoretical issues including the recognition of Clovis caches, Clovis lithic technology, mobility, and land use.

Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago.

It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers. Generally, Trieste books are purchased singly - on demand, however they may also be purchased in bulk. Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.
Download or read book Eastern Washington University and the Ice Age Flood Debate written by John C. Moudy and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Background. The Eastern Washington University-Archives and Special Collections have recently acquired the papers of EWU Professor Emeritus of Geography Dale F. Stradling. Stradling taught at EWU for many years and as well as being of significance to the history of the university,this collection also contains material regarding the history, geography, and geology of Washington State and the Pacific Northwest. Stradling was interested in the natural forces that shaped the geography of the Inland Northwest. He collected numerous articles, pictures, and other material on the unique series of geological erosion features known as the Channeled Scablands. Dale F. Stradling was part of a new school of geologists and geographers entering the field in the 1950s and 60s. This group largely accepted the theory that the Channeled Scablands had been formed by a series of massive floods during the Ice Age; a theory that had been largely dismissed by geologists and geographers when it was first proposed by Geologist J. Harlen Bretz in 1923. Overall Goal of the Project. This project has two overall goals: The first is to process and make available to the public the Dale F. Stradling Papers. The second is to provide archival training for the student carrying out this project. The archival training will be good experience for developing archival skills as well as good for a resume or other type of application. Specifically the student involved in this project will gain experience organizing a physical archival collection for the archives of a university archives and experience digitizing media for the same archives. Thesis. The thesis will describe the reorganization of the Dale F. Stradling Papers, show the connection between Eastern Washington University and the debate over the formation of the Channeled Scablands, and end with Dale F. Stradling and his work along an annotated bibliography containing sources available through the JFK Library system, many of which were used for this thesis"--Document.
