Download or read book The Street of Adventure Classic Reprint written by Philip Gibbs and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-20 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Street of Adventure Unlike many colleagues in Fleet Street, I still remained an onlooker, as an ofiicial war-correspondent with the British Armies in the Field. I was still the servant of Fleet Street, writing words, words, words, when all the world was dying - the world I had'known. I hated the job, but it had to be done, so that the pictures of war should be described, and the agonies of war known, and the valour of youth recorded. I did not care a damn about Fleet Street then. I wrote for the sake of the sol diers. I wrote as a chronicler of their history and their sufferings; and I shared in my soul the things they feared, and their tragic doubts and despairs, and the intolerable boredom of exile from normal life, and the smells and sights and sounds of the fields in which they fought. I was not quite aloof, nor only an onlooker. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Adventure Capitalist written by Jim Rogers and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-10-10 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gripping tale of adventure, danger and humor, peppered with investment tips from a Wall Street legend The best-selling author of Investment Biker takes a fascinating journey through the world's economic situation in a convertible yellow Mercedes. This is the motivating story of entrepreneur Jim Rogers, dubbed "the Indiana Jones of finance" by Time magazine, who made his fortune playing the stock market and then embarked on his lifelong dream adventure. Together with his fiancee, Paige Parker, he set out on a three-year drive around the world that would ultimately set the Guinness world record for the longest continuous car journey. Their trip winds its way through 116 countries - through blizzards, deserts, epidemics and war zones - to discover failing economies and the new boom countries not from dry and potentially flawed statistics, but by experiencing life itself. This is a gripping tale of travel and adventure; along the way they encounter danger, love and farce. It is also a highly readable account of world economies: you won't find a more enjoyable way to be introduced to the investment potential of Bolivia, or the cultural changes afoot in North Korea. Finally it is also an inward journey in which Rogers moves from the restless traveler to husband and father, hoping one day to introduce his daughter to his own passion for travel. JIM ROGERS entered the investment business in 1968 with $600 dollars in his pocket. By 1980, at 37 years of age, he had left Wall Street with enough money to satisfy a lifelong appetite for adventure.
