Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About the Book In Notes for My Dear Grandchildren: Unalienable Rights, Yuri Zakharenkov presents various people, who by some amazing twists of destiny were brought together with the only goal to continue their lives, hoping for a better future. They come from many distant places, and have very diverse family lifestyles and social positions. Nevertheless, they all believe in their ability to survive difficult times and experience happiness eventually. The story of Gary and his family is unique by its amazing turns, which nobody could predict (but everyone told that the way out of Soviet society to western culture was going to be extremely difficult). Some of Gary’s old friends consider him as a lucky one; nobody should follow his path, they said, it was too risky. But Gary himself was of another opinion – his faith in himself, his trust in his passion, and his support of his loved ones – those were the guarantees of the success, never mind how hard the impossible task would be. About the Author Yuri Zakharenkov was born in Sarov, a small secret Russian town, where the first Soviet atomic bomb laboratory had been created. At age ten, he moved with his family to another nuclear weapon laboratory in Snezhinsk, a newly developed facility in the Siberian side of the Ural mountains. His father, Alexander Zakharenkov, was the key figure in Soviet nuclear weapons development and later was named a deputy minister to oversee the program all over the USSR. After graduating from Moscow State University with a major in laser physics, Yuri worked for 21 years at the leading Soviet research center, Lebedev Physical Institute, on the study of the power laser applications in the group of Nobel laureate N.Basov. During that period, Zakharenkov published his and coauthor’s scientific results in dozens of journal articles and two books, one of which was translated to English and deserved fair success. The Zakharenkovs fled Moscow in August 1991 during the coup, which ultimately led to the fall of the communist regime. In the US, Yuri worked at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory for the first six years, then three years at Silicon Valley start-ups and finally at the Raytheon company in Los Angeles. Now retired, he put in writing his incredible memories, added biography notes of his ancestors (who also had remarkable fates), and expressed his own vision of life values, human rights, personal liberty, and pursuit of happiness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they know they will never sit. Greek Proverb In these notes a grandfather sets out for his grandchildren some of the lessons he has learned from a long and rewarding life. These are lessons the young people may not be able to absorb just yet, but “Papa” will probably not be here when his grandchildren have experienced enough of life themselves to grasp fully the insights set out in these pages. The advice he offers his grandchildren, as a stimulus to the development of their own wisdom later in their lives, covers topics as diverse as self-awareness and self-judgement, relationships between the sexes, how to deal with conflict and one’s attitude toward the eternal.

Download or read book Move On written by Faith McClung Kline O'Brien and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2022-10-20 with total page 677 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author Faith McClung Kline O’Brien’s paternal grandparents, Albert McClung and Mattie Fitzgerald, met at a small, country church in Oklahoma in 1907, the year that territory became a state. Albert’s ancestors included Revolutionary patriots “Saucy Jack” McClung, of Scotch-Irish descent, and Abraham Kuykendall, of Dutch lineage, who, around 1740, relocated from New York to North Carolina, where he settled and accumulated a fortune in gold coins. Mattie descended from two former sea captains who became merchants in Brooklyn, New York—Edward Card from Maine and Nathaniel Grafton from Newport, Rhode Island, whose seafaring ancestors had sailed the Atlantic Ocean since the mid-1600s. In Move On! O’Brien chronicles her extended family’s history, with each chapter focusing on one of Albert’s or Mattie’s seventeen ancestral branches—the Fitzgerald and McClung Clans and their allied lines: the Anthony, Barry, Card, Dods, Forman, Grafton, Kuykendall, Longstreet, Miller, Reid, Thompson, Tidwell, Trigg, Wilbore, and Wyckoff families. Ten of these lines include Revolutionary patriots, and ten have roots in America extending as far back as the 1600s. Move On! tells how descendants of these disparate families met, united in marriage, and eventually became pioneers on the Southwestern prairies. Glimpses of religion in the lives of everyday Americans appear throughout Move On!, which combines genealogical details with personal stories, many taking place during pivotal events in US history. Stories from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries told firsthand by O’Brien’s late grandparents help bring Move On! to life through the eyes of real-life characters, her ancestors.
