Book excerpt: Excerpt from Legend of a Lake There is a legend, ' told in Indian tongue, That dates far back to pre-historic days; Tradition hands it down from old to young, In tribal language with unfeigning ways. But many search from plain to mountain crest, And follow trails that lead o'er hill and dale, To find the waters of a lake,2 and test The truth or fiction of a wondrous tale. While others delve amid forgotten lines, To seek new light from legendary signs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The third in Sven Hedin's Central Asia trilogy, The Wandering Lake is arguably his most famous work and a rare account of a now-vanished world. The lake of Lop Nur, the 'heart of the heart of Asia', is one of the world's strangest phenomena. Situated in the wild Chinese province of Xinjiang, Lop Nur - 'the wandering lake'- has for millennia been in a perpetual state of flux, drifting north to south, often tens of kilometres in as many years. It was once the lifeblood of the great Silk Road kingdom of Loulan, which flourished in this otherwise barren region 2,000 years ago, and its peculiar movements confused even Ptolemy, who marked the lake twice on his map of Asia. Following 'the pulse-beats of Lop Nur as a doctor examines a patient's heart', Sven Hedin became captivated by its peripatetic movements and for forty years his destiny was inextricably linked with that of this mysterious lake and the region surrounding it. His last journey to Lop Nur was in 1934, just days after he was released as a prisoner of General Ma Chung-yin (the rebel leader of Xinjiang). Travelling the length of the Konche-daria and Kum-daria rivers by canoe, Hedin embarked on his last Central Asian expedition and proved what he had always suspected - that Lop Nur did indeed shift position - and why. When he camped on its vast banks at night, Lop Nur was deep and full. Today, this once great lake - a mighty reservoir in the desert - is nothing but windblown sand and salty marsh. A gripping story of adventure and discovery, The Wandering Lake is a masterpiece by one of history's last great explorers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thousands of years ago in the first native village in North America live the people of Earth Mother, led by Gray Wolf, a great leader, hunter, craftsman, and father. His son, Wandering Bear is a spirited, sometimes rebellious twelve-year-old who has been without a mother since he was young and enjoys playing with his four close friends more than anything. After Wandering Bear decides he wants to become the finest hunter to provide for his family and people, his father does his best to make his son happy by traveling to find materials to create a bow and arrows and fashioning a knife and other tools. Wandering Bear, who opts not to help his father, is soon counseled by the Great Spirit Bird who begins teaching him valuable lessons in honor, respect, and consequence. But as he sets out to fulfill his thirst for adventure and matures into a young man, now only time will tell if Wandering Bear will ultimately come to understand the sacred truths that bind all people to Earth Mother. The Legends of Wandering Bear is the tale of a Native American boy as he is guided to build good character and become connected to Earth Mother.
