Download or read book The Two Wheeled World of George B Thayer written by Kevin J. Hayes and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cyclotourism has recently risen to prominence with growing national media coverage and thousands of participants taking to America's roadways on two wheels and under their own pedal power. But the concept is not new. More than a century ago, George B. Thayer took his own first "century," or one-hundred-mile bicycle ride. The Two-Wheeled World of George B. Thayer brings to life the experience of late nineteenth-century cycling through the heartfelt story of this important cycling pioneer. In 1886, just two years after his first century, Thayer rode his high wheeler across the United States, traveling from his home in Connecticut to California and back. Thayer took an indirect route without any intent to set speed records, but his trip was full of adventure nonetheless. Thayer loved going downhill, his legs over the handlebars, risking life and limb atop the large wheel on often rough and muddy roads. With aplomb and humor, he dealt with the countless other hazards he encountered, including dogs, mule teams, and wild hogs. Even bad weather and poor sleeping conditions could not keep Thayer down. After his epic tour across the United States, Thayer had the urge to cycle abroad and eventually toured England, Germany, Belgium, and Canada on his bike. His later travels were in part aided by his hometown of Hartford, Connecticut, which was the epicenter of American bicycle manufacturing in the late 1890s. In addition to telling Thayer's cycling story, Kevin J. Hayes brings to life the culture of cycling and its rise at the end of the nineteenth century, when bikes became more affordable and the nation's riding craze took off.

Download or read book High Pressure Shock Compression of Solids VIII written by L.C. Chhabildas and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-03-30 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research in the field of shock physics and ballistic impact has always been intimately tied to progress in development of facilities for accelerating projectiles to high velocity and instrumentation for recording impact phenomena. The chapters of this book, written by leading US and European experts, cover a broad range of topics and address researchers concerned with questions of material behaviour under impulsive loading and the equations of state of matter, as well as the design of suitable instrumentation such as gas guns and high-speed diagnostics. Applications include high-speed impact dynamics, the inner composition of planets, syntheses of new materials and materials processing. Among the more technologically oriented applications treated is the testing of the flight characteristics of aeroballistic models and the assessment of impacts in the aerospace industry.

Book excerpt: Longarm’s about to make three kidnappers wish they’d never been born… It’s sort of an unwritten code of the West—if you shoot a woman who’s trying to steal your horse, you promise to find her kidnapped daughter. United States Deputy Marshal Custis Long was all set for a relaxing vacation up in the mountains, catching trout and smoking cheroots as he watched the sunset. Instead, he’s startled out of his bedroll by someone trying to steal his horse. Longarm shoots first, only to discover the “thief” is actually a woman in desperate straits. After getting her help and learning that her sixteen-year-old daughter has been abducted by three men, Longarm sets off to recover the girl. But the mountains hold many surprises, and this is one rescue mission he may not return from…
