Download or read book Farthest North The Life and Explorations of Lie of the Greely Arctic Expedition written by Charles Lanman and published by anboco. This book was released on 2017-07-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is believed that this book, with its true but none the less stirring adventures, will be of much interest to the general public, as well as gratifying to the many warm friends of Lieutenant Lockwood. It will likewise correct any erroneous impressions which may have arisen from the publication of garbled extracts from the official journals kept by the different members of the Greely party and, by order of the War Department, laid open to the public. By this order, Lockwood's journal and those of others became public property, and hence any reference to them in advance of their official publication is allowable. The few pages devoted to the early life can not be expected to especially interest the general public, but will gratify Lieutenant Lockwood's friends. They are here produced to give them permanency, and to show his sterling character. No attempt is here made to give a history of the Expedition, and only so much of Lockwood's journal is produced as shows his connection therewith. The voyage to Lady Franklin Bay is given more in detail, 2 as it presents a lively picture of an interesting people not much known, and as it exhibits the buoyant spirits with which he entered upon the work, before dissensions in camp had checked them, though without marring his faithfulness and energy. The important part he had in the enterprise, his zeal, energy, and loyalty to his chief and to the cause, all are fully set forth, and will be more clearly seen when the more elaborate history of the Expedition shall be published by Lieutenant Greely, as will shortly be done. Although the journal has been freely used, its language and style have not been closely followed, except in those parts quoted which refer to Lockwood's sentiments and feelings. The deep pathos of these could be expressed as well in no other words.

They had just finished their first mission which took them to the Amazon Jungle to eliminate a Colombian drug lord and to rescue two American women from his home that the drug lord threaten to kill. They completed their mission successfully and now they train secretly in Graham, Washington while posing as Army Reserve Recruiters. Now Major Stones Phantom Warriors receives their second mission which they must enter into North Korea to once again pull off an escape plan to rescue two American scientists that the North Koreans had kidnapped and are forcing them to create a virus so deadly that the whole planet is in danger. Major Stones Phantom Warriors have to find the scientists once in North Korea and then rescue them. But they unexpectedly come across four little orphan girls that end up going on their mission. When the team finds the scientists they are surprised to also find a South Korea Military Intelligence Officer who had been captured by North Korea and they also find a seventy-six year old United States Marine who still is a POW from the Korean conflict. The team then must make their way out of North Korea but before they leave the country, they have to blowup a research lab; get involved in several armed conflicts, which two team members are wounded, one critical; highjack an Air China airplane; face a North Korean MIG getting ready to shoot them from the sky and even witness two UFO sightings. This is another page turner of the Phantom Warriors and just like book one, it will be hard to put down.

Download or read book The Book of Exploration written by Raymond John Howgego and published by Bloomsbury Publishing PLC. This book was released on 2009-10-27 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Book of Exploration is a chronological tour of the history of exploration by an expert in the field and prolific world traveller, from the pioneering excursions of the ancient Egyptians to the first surface-based crossings of the top and bottom of the world." "Before the turn of the nineteenth century, ventures into uncharted lands required material or spiritual reward to justify the perils of shipwreck, hostile natives, and dangers yet unknown. Until recent times, exploration for the sake of knowledge alone was rare; it was mostly undertaken by intrepid traders, gold. seekers, and valiant Christian missionaries. The Book of Exploration presents more than 150 of the most influential and unusual journeys of discovery, setting each firmly in its historical context. Roy Howgego introduces heroic adventurers battling the elements and committing their findings to journals and maps, pioneers who risked everything in search of fabled riches, and explorers determined to conquer the deserts, poles, and oceans of the globe." "Organized chronologically, beautifully illustrated with contemporary maps, paintings, journal entries, and other artifacts, The Book of Exploration is a feast for the eye and an unparalleled resource." --Book Jacket.
Download or read book Phantom Past Indigenous Presence written by Colleen E. Boyd and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The imagined ghosts of Native Americans have been an important element of colonial fantasy in North America ever since European settlements were established in the seventeenth century. Native burial grounds and Native ghosts have long played a role in both regional and local folklore and in the national literature of the United States and Canada, as settlers struggled to create a new identity for themselves that melded their European heritage with their new, North American frontier surroundings. In this interdisciplinary volume, Colleen E. Boyd and Coll Thrush bring together scholars from a variety of fields to discuss this North American fascination with "the phantom Native American." "Phantom Past, Indigenous Presence" explores the importance of ancestral spirits and historic places in Indigenous and settler communities as they relate to territory and history--in particular cultural, political, social, historical, and environmental contexts. From examinations of how individuals reacted to historical cases of "hauntings," to how Native phantoms have functioned in the literature of North Americans, to interdisciplinary studies of how such beliefs and narratives allowed European settlers and Indigenous people to make sense of the legacies of colonialism and conquest, these essays show how the past and the present are intertwined through these stories.

Download or read book British Airship Bases of the Twentieth Century written by Malcolm Fife and published by Fonthill Media. This book was released on 2017-05-17 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerous books have been written on airships, but few concentrate on their bases and infrastructure to support their operations. British Airship Bases of the Twentieth Century starts with documenting the primitive facilities from which the early machines flew in the years prior to the First World War. The outbreak of the First World War resulted in airships being adopted for military purposes and bases were established across Britain. Most of these were operated by the Royal Naval Air Service for the protection of shipping against U-boats. In the 1920s, an attempt was made by the British Government to build airships for commercial transport. The locations where these giants of the sky were constructed are described as well as the proposed overseas passenger terminals. The latter part of this enthralling and detailed book chronicles the attempt to establish the airship as a means of transport to link together the far flung lands of the British Empire. Reference is also made at attempts to revive the airship in the closing decade of the 20th century and the locations associated with them. Illustrations: 170 black and white photographs
