Book excerpt: After surviving a shipwreck and finding her way to Golden Age Amsterdam, beautiful and clever but naive Isabela Caldern returns to her 17th-century Spanish village at age seventeen to fulfill the destiny her deceased father set in motion at her birth. When she finds her beloved childhood home altered and life with her husband unbearable, Isabela seeks solace from a healer cook, a mysterious, erudite tailor of unknown origin, and her husbands long-term mistress who hides a threatening secret. Isolated and distraught when illness and the Inquisition destroy these precious friendships, she again sets sail - this time with her two children - to the New World towns of San Agustn and New Amsterdam. While serving as a language interpreter in a dingy jail cell, she reconnects with the engaging and attentive Dutch artist, Pieter Hals, with whom she spent a memorable evening a decade earlier. At the time she was suddenly wrenched away from the Amsterdam orphans in her care, Pieter had begun painting her portrait. Now when the possibility of a renewed and joyful relationship looms, while the unfinished youthful portrait beckons from its attic perch across the sea in Amsterdam, obstacles and self-doubt continue to block Isabelas path to self-fulfillment and happiness.

Download or read book Closing the Helix written by Margarett Mirley and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2007 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Opulent eastern cities were still reeling from Alexander's devastating conquests when Pytheas the Greek adventurer quietly slipped moorings at Massalia in southern Gaul to face the unknown ocean and explore the remote north. Pytheas the adventurer, who rounded Britain and even ventured as far as the Baltic Sea so long ago, is a fascinating enigma. What inspired him to do it? Adventure? Trade? The pursuit of knowledge? Or had he personal reasons? Not only an educated adventurer who survived to write two books, Pytheas was surely young to embark on such a gruelling and hazardous expedition.He was also clearly familiar with celestial navigation and ships - as would any merchant who traded out of Massalia. Only fragments and reference to his accounts remain, yet such were his revelations that 200 years on the Roman geographer Strabo, who never went beyond the straits of Sicily, called him a lying fantasist...because Pytheas also claimed to have ventured far beyond Britain to a mysterious place called Thoule. Not only were his astronomical observations there used by ancient scholars to prove that the earth was a sphere, tantalising hints reveal what else Pytheas recorded of that extraordinary three year expedition. But what of Pytheas the man? Who went with him? How did they travel such distances - and get by hostile Phoenicians who controlled access to the great ocean?

Download or read book Free as a Global Nomad written by Päivi Kannisto, Santeri Kannisto and published by Drifting Sands Press. This book was released on 2012-11-23 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does it feel to be forever on the move? Who are global nomads? Why did they leave their former lives? How do they finance their travels? And, ultimately, what is the meaning of life for them? In this book our fellow global nomads, travelers who wander the world without a permanent job or home, answer these intriguing questions. They are modern-day adventurers and vagrants, no one's property. Global nomads value freedom and mastery of their own lives. Their ideas draw from the everyday life and dreams of explorers, philosophers, and vagrants, some notable pioneers including Alexander the Great, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and George Orwell. This book shows how global nomads revive the ancient ideals of a simple and beautiful life. In the process, home, nationality, freedom, and travel get a new meaning that will permanently change the way in which we perceive the world.
