Download or read book Rockets and People Volume I NASA History Series NASA Sp 2005 4110 written by Boris Chertok and published by Military Bookshop. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much has been written in the West on the history of the Soviet space program, but few Westerners have read direct first-hand accounts of the men and women who were behind the many Russian accomplishments in exploring space. The memoir of academician Boris Chertok, translated from the original Russian, fills that gap. Chertok began his career as an electrician in 1930 at an aviation factory near Moscow. Thirty years later, he was deputy to the founding figure of the Soviet space program, the mysterious "Chief Designer" Sergey Korolev. Chertok's 60-year-long career and the many successes and failures of the Soviet space program constitute the core of his memoirs, Rockets and People. In these writings, spread over four volumes (volumes two through four are forthcoming), academician Chertok not only describes and remembers, but also elicits and extracts profound insights from an epic story about a society's quest to explore the cosmos. This book was edited by Asif Siddiqi, a historian of Russian space exploration, and General Tom Stafford contributed a foreword touching upon his significant work with the Russians on the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project. Overall, this book is an engaging read while also contributing much new material to the literature about the Soviet space program.

Download or read book The Muse of Menus written by Constance Crawford and published by Daniel & Daniel Publishers. This book was released on 1988 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book began when I set myself the deceptively simple task of writing out some recipes for my four grown sons and daughters. As an introduction to the recipe collection, I wrote the story of how I learned to make our family's favorite dish, Betty Woodman's Pancakes. Then I thought David, Ann, Alan, and Melissa might be encouraged to know that I, too, was once a beginning cook, so I wrote about the Very Special Chicken and Noodles disaster. Then I wanted them to know about my childhood by the mountain lake, my life's first friend there, and how his mother taught me to make tacos, her way. Recipe led to story, story to character, character back to recipe until I began to see cooking as a strand that weaves through every part of our lives, connecting us to our intimate past, touching our most vital feelings and relationships, reminding us of our best comedies -- and our tragedies as well. From a short collection of recipes my project became this book about my life and cooking."--

Download or read book Uncle Remus Stories Annotated written by Joel Chandler Harris and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2014-05-20 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uncle Remus Stories (1906) by Joel Chandler Harris (1845-1908), with illustratrions. Uncle Remus is a collection of animal stories, songs, and oral folklore, collected from Southern United States African-Americans. Many of the stories are didactic, much like those of Aesop's Fables and the stories of Jean de La Fontaine. Uncle Remus is a kindly old former slave who serves as a storytelling device, passing on the folktales to children gathered around him. Br'er Rabbit ("Brother Rabbit") is the main character of the stories, a likable character, prone to tricks and trouble-making who is often opposed by Br'er Fox and Br'er Bear. In one tale, Br'er Fox constructs a lump of tar and puts clothing on it. When Br'er Rabbit comes along he addresses the "tar baby" amiably, but receives no response. Br'er Rabbit becomes offended by what he perceives as Tar Baby's lack of manners, punches it, and becomes stuck.
