Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wonderful Century: Its Successes and Its Failures 1898! And these are ours to-clay! The boundless flood Of infinite Research - the ocean vast Of endless exploration - and our barque Of Science builded, fairly launched at last, Captain'd by Thought - by Reason piloted - Sails forth upon the venture - and to us, To search the shores of Doubt-in midnight hid; To give, it such there be, new Worlds to light, And that we have, with better day make bright. - J. E. Dell. Every young soul, ardent and high, rushing forth into life's hot fight; Every home of happy content, lit by loves own mystical light; Every worker who works till the evening, and earns before night his wage, Be his work a furrow straight drawn, or the joy of a battered age; Every thinker who, standing aloof from the throng, finds at high delight In striking with tongue or with pen a stroke for the triumph of right! - All these know that life is sweet; all these, with a consonant voice, Read the legend of Time with a smile, and that which they read is "Rejoice!" - Sir Leuis Morris. It thou wouldst make thy thought, 0 man, the home Where other minds may habit, build it large. Make its vast root translucent to the skies, And let the upper glory dawn thereon, Till morn and evening, circling round, shell drop Their jewelled plumes of sun-flame and of stars. - Thomas Luke Harris.

Download or read book The Wonderful Century written by Alfred R. Wallace and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wonderful Century, originally published in 1898, is a unique book, offering a retrospective of the grand scope of the 19th century. In it, British biologist and explorer ALFRED RUSSEL WALLACE (1823-1913) discusses what he considers the successes of the last hundred years, including advances made in modes of travel, mechanization, photography, the analysis of light, physics, the study of dust, chemistry, astronomy, glaciers, geology, evolution, and medicine. He also covers those areas of study that have not been advanced as much as he believes they should have been. Among the curious topics in the "Failure" section of the book are phrenology, hypnotism, and the fallacy of vaccination. It will be amusing to modern readers that many of the areas that Wallace thought needed to be elucidated better in the future have since been proven false. History buffs as well as readers wishing to be entertained by the skewed views of the past will find this book a joyous and engaging read.

Book excerpt: Ken Follett’s magnificent historical epic begins as five interrelated families move through the momentous dramas of the First World War, the Russian Revolution, and the struggle for women’s suffrage. A thirteen-year-old Welsh boy enters a man’s world in the mining pits. . . . An American law student rejected in love finds a surprising new career in Woodrow Wilson’s White House. . . . A housekeeper for the aristocratic Fitzherberts takes a fateful step above her station, while Lady Maud Fitzherbert herself crosses deep into forbidden territory when she falls in love with a German spy. . . .

From the dirt and danger of a coal mine to the glittering chandeliers of a palace, from the corridors of power to the bedrooms of the mighty, Fall of Giants takes us into the inextricably entangled fates of five families—and into a century that we thought we knew, but that now will never seem the same again. . . .
