Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most honeymoons, Mary knows, do not start this way. Lying outside on the sloping attic roof in Edinburgh, listening to the soft snores of her groom, she realizes that Rudy’s number one rule, “adapt," once again reigns. Rudy’s Rules for Travel takes you across the twentieth-century globe with intrepid, frugal Rudy and his spouse Mary, a catastrophic thinker seeking comfort. Whether stalled in a Spanish car tunnel, stranded atop a runaway elephant, or held at rifle-point at a Soviet border, Rudy has a rule for every occasion—for example, “Relax, some kind stranger will appear.” Mary, meanwhile, has her deep breathing and her own commandment: “Expect the worst.” The two are a picture of contrast. As Mary was being born, Rudy was a new American citizen flying US Air Force missions over his homeland, Germany. His father was a seaman, hers an accountant. And when this marriage of opposites goes traveling, their stories combine laugh-out-loud humor with poignant lessons from the odyssey of a World War II veteran. So start packing—you’ll want to join these two.

Download or read book City Wilds written by Terrell Dixon and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The assumptions we make about nature writing too often lead us to see it only as a literature about wilderness or rural areas. This anthology broadens our awareness of American nature writing by featuring the flora, fauna, geology, and climate that enrich and shape urban life. Set in neither pristine nor exotic environs, these stories and essays take us to rivers, parks, vacant lots, lakes, gardens, and zoos as they convey nature's rich disregard of city limits signs. With writings by women and men from cities in all regions of the country and from different ethnic traditions, the anthology reflects the geographic differences and multicultural makeup of our cities. Works by well-known and emerging contemporary writers are included as well as pieces from important twentieth-century urban nature writers. Since more than 80 percent of Americans now live in urban areas, we need to enlarge our environmental concerns to encompass urban nature. By focusing on urban nature writing, the selections in City Wilds can help develop a more inclusive environmental consciousness, one that includes both the nature we see on a day-to-day basis and how such nearby nature is viewed by writers from diverse cultural backgrounds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as other beckoners of the dead had previously conjured up, it is now Milford's turn to raise the dead, only this time with the elixir of South Carolina Moonshine. The evil mortician invokes the demons of the bottle to resurrect his card partner inside the embalming chamber. The word rise reverberates throughout the room as voodoo drums resonate a frenzy staccato of jumbled pulses. Milford pours fluid into the zombie's open mouth. A bit of the nectar overflows down the side of the cadaver's jaw and splashes to the floor. All at once, the corpse's extremities spasmodically jerk. The body thrashes wildly, seemingly fighting off the choking sensation of the potion. A blood-curdling cough blasts into the commotion of the room. Unassisted, the corpse's torso slowly eases upward, as if an invisible lever cranks the spine. The drums reach a crescendo. The once dead man flings one arm outward while making a horrendous sound as the drums pound out a deafening boom. Milford shouts to his live assistant, Hold him, damn it. Do you want him to kill us all? The action never stops in South Carolina: Island in the Sea of States, Vol. II.
