Download or read book Mountain People in a Flat Land written by Carl E. Feather and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 1940s, $10 bought a bus ticket from Appalachia to a better job and promise of prosperity in the flatlands of northeast Ohio. A mountaineer with a strong back and will to work could find a job within twenty-four hours of arrival. But the cost of a bus ticket was more than a week's wages in a lumber camp, and the mountaineer paid dearly in loss of kin, culture, homeplace, and freedom. Numerous scholarly works have addressed this migration that brought more than one million mountaineers to Ohio alone. But Mountain People in a Flat Land is the first popular history of Appalachian migration to one community -- Ashtabula County, an industrial center in the fabled "best location in the nation." These migrants share their stories of life in Appalachia before coming north. There are tales of making moonshine, colorful family members, home remedies harvested from the wild, and life in coal company towns and lumber camps. The mountaineers explain why, despite the beauty of the mountains and the deep kinship roots, they had to leave Appalachia. Stories of their hardships, cultural clashes, assimilation, and ultimate successes in the flatland provide a moving look at an often stereotyped people.
Download or read book The Annotated Flatland written by Ian Stewart and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2008-07-31 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flatland is a unique, delightful satire that has charmed readers for over a century. Published in 1884 by the English clergyman and headmaster Edwin A. Abbott, it is the fanciful tale of A. Square, a two-dimensional being who is whisked away by a mysterious visitor to The Land of Three Dimensions, an experience that forever alters his worldview. Like the original, Ian Stewart's commentary takes readers on a strange and wonderful journey. With clarity and wit, Stewart illuminates Abbott's numerous Victorian references and touches on such diverse topics as ancient Babylon, Karl Marx, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Mt. Everest, H.G. Wells, and phrenology. The Annotated Flatland makes fascinating connections between Flatland and Abbott's era, resulting in a classic to rival Abbott's own, and a book that will inspire and delight curious readers for generations to come.

Book excerpt: When Beverley Knight gets called upon to investigate a strange virus outbreak, little did she realise that this influx of cases would lead her down a rabbit hole of such colossal ramifications. Her life and the entire planet's population would now rest on her shoulders. Becoming a doctor in tropical disease all those years ago, never would she have thought it would lead her on a path to save humanity. What Beverley did not expect is that this new flu virus is only the beginning of a much larger plan that she cannot see coming. The guardianship has been watching, and seeing how the population has become so inflated, a cull was needed, but like so many things Beverley has been led to believe, nothing is as it seems and no one is to be trusted. The guardianship is a secret sect of men that have entrusted themselves to oversee the future of humanity. They work in the background, influencing government, making changes to the direction of humanity if they feel it is necessary. Their ability to remain hidden is their strength, but as Beverley gets closer to the truth, their biggest strength is their weakness because it soon becomes obvious that not even the guardianship agents can be trusted within their own organisation. An unsuspecting friend comes in the form of a man called Liev Malik. An ex- military guy that has hidden depths that Beverley begins to see through and begins to see a new picture emerging. The virus that had been manufactured is only the tip of the growing iceberg as she disentangles the truth behind those that wish to bring the population under control. As more of the White fox project becomes apparent in her quest to find the vaccine, she never could prepare herself for the adventure, and the losses she must face to get to the truth. Just when Beverley thinks she has found the answers, it soon becomes apparent that whoever was behind this virus that is now infecting the entire planet, something more devious was planned that no one could have foreseen. Will humanity survive, or will Beverley make it in time to find the answers that seem to just be beyond her grasp? One man, Professor Geoff Hardman knows that answer as he lets loose, The White Fox Variant.

If you are reading this blurb, then you too might be a sufferer, or you might know someone who is trying to understand and find the right help to progress foreword from having panic. This book gives you an insight to what panic attacks are, how they might be affecting your life as they do mine and will give you a few insights into how you can manage your panic attacks. There are many books on mental health issues and far too many books on panic attacks that promise you a miracle cure. I only promise you one thing, you will have a better understanding of panic attacks and be better prepared when they occur. Seeking guidance early-on is the most important thing you can do right now. If you are experiencing panic attacks and they are beginning to affect your life, now is the time to act and seek help. Early intervention has a higher success rate in overcoming panic attacks. Long-term suffers will know how hard it is to overcome panic attacks and can lead to further complications such as Agoraphobia and Autophobia (Monophobia.), if left untreated, as I have experienced because I did not seek the right help early-on and thought they would go away one day. Yours might, but if they do not. I would encourage you at least talk to your doctor or GP about panic attacks and the help that is available.
