Download or read book Damascus written by Brigid Keenan and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Damascus, reputed to be the worldʹs oldest continually inhabited city, has enjoyed a history of immense grandeur, enormous political and mercantile power, and great cultural and artistic achievement. In addition to some of Islamʹs most magnificent architecture, such as the Umayyad Mosque, the city boasts a heritage of fairy-tale palaces and sumptuous private houses. Sadly, many of them are in urgent need of restoration. Brigid Keenan and Tim Beddow were given unprecedented access to the inner, "hidden" city, which has resulted in a book that is of immense importance to all concerned with the heritage of architecture in the Islamic world. The superb photographs include façades, courtyards, alleyways and fountains, and the breathtaking interiors that often lie behind the unassuming walls of the old town, with exquisite details in stone, wood, paint, marble, plaster, glass and mother-of-pearl. The whole, published with the generous support of Wafic Rida Said, forms a convincing and elegiac plea for the preservation of the heart of this historic ancient capital. -- Jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The merkids hunt for hidden treasure in this Mermaid Tales adventure! When Rocky finds a seaweed scroll that describes an abandoned pirate ship bursting with jewels, the students are tripping over their tails with excitement. There’s only one problem: the treasure is supposedly guarded by pirate ghosts! But a few “silly ghosts” aren’t going to keep prima donna Pearl away from fame, fortune, and “diamonds as big as a merman’s fist.” The hunt is on! Pearl recruits fellow merkids Rocky and Wanda to help her track down the treasure by swimming all the way past Whale Mountain. But when they discover the pirate ship, they hear eerie moans and groans coming from within. What’s making those sounds? Could the pirate ghosts be real? And can the merkids get the jewels before becoming someone’s—or something’s—lunch?
Download or read book The Treasure of the City of Ladies written by Christine de Pizan and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2003-10-30 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by Europe’s first professional woman writer, The Treasure of the City of Ladies offers advice and guidance to women of all ages and from all levels of medieval society, from royal courtiers to prostitutes. It paints an intricate picture of daily life in the courts and streets of fifteenth-century France and gives a fascinating glimpse into the practical considerations of running a household, dressing appropriately and maintaining a reputation in all circumstances. Christine de Pizan’s book provides a valuable counterbalance to male accounts of life in the middle ages and demonstrates, often with dry humour, how a woman’s position in society could be made less precarious by following the correct etiquette.

Book excerpt: Step into a Journey of Heartwarming Americana Imagine the lush, rolling hills of Pennsylvania, where a young girl runs free, her feet kissing the earth with every step. Barefoot in the Hills: A Country Girl's Tale is your personal invitation to walk alongside Emily, whose story unfolds with the wild spirit of nature itself. Born into a life that threads through the seasons, Emily's early years blossom with pure, childlike wonder. As a tomboy deeply connected to her older brother and the land that holds their childhoods, her heart beats to the rhythm of the countryside. Dive into her adventures across the family farm, where fireflies dance and creeks murmur secrets only a country girl would understand. Yet not all journeys follow straight paths. School brings challenges, as Emily's barefoot legacy meets the paved confines of academia, but it's the internal struggle that will captivate you--the tug between the allure of distant horizons and the call of home. Witness the deeply poetic passages of change, from the daffodil's first bloom to the solemn beauty of winter's embrace. Life whirls in a kaleidoscope of experiences: from enchanted snow tunnels to the awe of nature's quietest moments. But as adolescence beckons, it's not just the seasons that change. Emily confronts the lure of city lights, her journey of self-discovery stretching from the East to the West Coast, from college halls to the throes of urban life. When a profound loss calls her back to her roots, Emily must grapple with the essence of who she has become. As she rebuilds the bridge between her past and present, you will feel the resilience of her spirit and the strength of the bonds that tie her to the hills of her heritage. Each chapter of her life--meticulously chronicled in these pages--brings new adventures, relationships, and personal growth. As Emily treads the delicate balance between preservation and change, Barefoot in the Hills offers not just a story, but a sensory experience. Embrace the lessons of living close to nature, discover heartfelt traditions, and indulge in the comfort of rural recipes. Join Emily as she shares her tale with a new generation, her barefoot journey lingering in the soul like the eternal hills that made her. It's an epic for anyone who's ever yearned for simplicity, for love, and for a place to call home.
