Download or read book The Magical Dilemma of Victor Neuburg written by Jean Overton Fuller and published by Mandrake of Oxford. This book was released on 2005 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magician, Poet and Seer, Victor Neuburg was the disciple of Aleister Crowley and literary godfather of Dylan Thomas. Really two books in one. Firstly a record of one man's extraordinary journey to magical enlightenment. Secondly the story of the Aleister Crowley, the magus who summoned Neuburg to join him in the quest. The book opens with the author's entry into the group of young poets including Dylan Thomas and Pamela Hansford Johnson. They gather around Victor Neuburg in 1935 when he is poetry editor of the Sunday Referee. Gradually the author becomes aware of his strange and sinister past, in which Neuburg was associated in magic with Aleister Crowley. Neuburg had been Crowley's partner in magical rituals in the desert and in rites even more dangerous and controversial. The author sought out the truth behind the rumours and with her intuitive understanding of deeper things presents a sympathetic and compelling biography. 'Vicky encouraged me as no one else has done, ' Dylan Thomas declared on hearing of Neuburg's death. 'He possessed many kinds of genius, and not the least was his genius for drawing to himself, by his wisdom, graveness, great humour and innocence, a feeling of trust and love, that won't ever be forgotten.' ' . . . there was a whiff of sulphur abroad, and all of us would have liked to know the truth of the Aleister Crowley's legends, the truth of the witch-like baroness called Cremers, the abandonment of Neuburg in the desert.' - Pamela Hansford Johnson

Download or read book Radio s Digital Dilemma written by John Nathan Anderson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-04 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radio's Digital Dilemma is the first comprehensive analysis of the United States’ digital radio transition, chronicling the technological and policy development of the HD Radio broadcast standard. A story laced with anxiety, ignorance, and hubris, the evolution of HD Radio pitted the nation’s largest commercial and public broadcasters against the rest of the radio industry and the listening public in a pitched battle over defining the digital future of the medium. The Federal Communications Commission has elected to put its faith in "marketplace forces" to govern radio’s digital transition, but this has not been a winning strategy: a dozen years from its rollout, the state of HD Radio is one of dangerous malaise, especially as newer digital audio distribution technologies fundamentally redefine the public identity of "radio" itself. Ultimately, Radio’s Digital Dilemma is a cautionary tale about the overarching influence of economics on contemporary media policymaking, to the detriment of notions such as public ownership and access to the airwaves—and a call for media scholars and reformers to engage in the continuing struggle of radio’s digital transition in hopes of reclaiming these important principles.

Book excerpt: The Doctor's Dilemma by Hesba Stretton is about the mystery of Olivia's life. Olivia is a runaway and otherwise a stranger to a kind widower and his deaf mother. They must piece together Olivia's past and find out who she is – and what she may have done. Excerpt: "I think I was as nearly mad as I could be; nearer madness, I believe, than I shall ever be again, thank God! Three weeks of it had driven me to the very verge of desperation. I cannot say here what had brought me to this pass, for I do not know into whose hands these pages may fall; but I had made up my mind to persist in a certain line of conduct which I firmly believed to be right, while those who had authority over me and were stronger than I was, were resolutely bent upon making me submit to their will. The conflict had been going on, more or less violently, for months; now I had come very near the end of it. I felt that I must either yield or go mad."

Download or read book The Russian Rockefellers written by Robert W. Tolf and published by Hoover Press. This book was released on 2020-03-24 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The name of Nobel usually calls to mind Alfred Nobel, inventor of dynamite, and the internationally prestigious prizes that bear his name. But Alfred was only one member of a creative and innovative family who built an industrial empire in prerevolutionary Russia. The saga begins with an emigrÉ from Sweden, Immanuel Nobel, who was an architect, a pioneer producer of steam engines, and a maker of armaments, including the underwater mines that were widely used in the Crimean War. Immanuel's sons included Alfred; Robert, who directed the family's activities in the Caspian oil fields; and Ludwig, an engineering genius and manufacturing magnate whose boundless energy and fierce determination created the Russian petroleum industry. Ludwig's son Emanuel showed similar mettle, shrewdly bargaining with the Rothschilds for control of the Russian markets and competing head-on with Standard Oil, Royal Dutch, and Shell for lucrative world markets. Emanuel not only expanded the Russian oil industry but also helped to modernize the Russian navy and commanded a fleet of three hundred ships. Perhaps no family in history has played so decisive a role in building an industrial empire in an underdeveloped but resource-rich nation. Yet the achievements of the Nobel family have been largely forgotten. When the Bolsheviks came to power, the empire, which had taken eighty years to design and build, was nearly destroyed, bringing a sudden and bitter end to one of the most remarkable industrial odysseys in world history.
Download or read book American Expeditionary Forces Between the World Wars written by James L. Pelton and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study covers in considerable detail the historical events and circumstances surrounding American military intervention in the internal affairs of Russia and Nicaragua. Background information was obtained from appropriate texts, military records and reports, unit histories, reports of Congressional hearings, the Congressional Record, and unpublished manuscripts from the Military History Research Collection. This history traces President Wilson's dilema as pressure is applied by the Allies for American supported intervention in Russia after the collapse of the Eastern Front in 1971. Wilson finally succumbs, and American troops are landed in Archangel and Vladivostok to take part in an ill fated intervention. American troops are later withdrawn from combat in the face of disaster and bitter opposition on the home front. American involvement in Nicaragua is traced from early conflicts with Britain for supremacy in Central America to the second American intervention during the civil war of 1926. The complicated involvement of the US Marines and American capital to solve Nicaraguan problems is stressed. The study also develops the conflict between the Congress and the administration in both interventions over the war powers of the executive. (Author).
