Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spring of 1916, seventeen-year-old Kishan Singh is euphoric in his village Noor Mahal in Punjab, British India as he dreams of going to college, landing a government job and marrying his heartthrob Roop. Summer flies in with promise but ends in disaster when heavy rains flood the fields, wrecking the cotton crop and triggering influenza which leaves behind a trail of dead villagers. Kishan Singh’s dreams are ruthlessly washed away. Devastated, he sets off on a life-threatening voyage across two oceans for a distant and unknown land. On a cataclysmic day in 1919, Sophia’s idyllic world in Guadalajara, Mexico, falls apart when she becomes a hapless victim to the ravages of the Mexican Revolution. She battles hunger, poverty and near prostitution before embarking on a perilous night journey across the border. Will their paths cross in the land of opportunities that is overrun with racial and class barriers? The Rainbow Acres is a moving saga of migration, selfless love, fortitude, friendship, and the quest for land and identity, set against the backdrop of old Punjab, early California and revolution-torn Mexico.
Download or read book See What You re Missing written by Will Gompertz and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2023-04-04 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking us into the minds of artists—from contemporary stars to old masters—See What You’re Missing shows us how to look and experience the world with their heightened awareness. Artists are expert lookers: they have learned to pay attention. The rest of us spend most of our time on auto-pilot, rushing from place to place, our overfamiliarity blinding us to the marvellous, life-affirming phenomena of our world. But that doesn’t have to be the case. In his inimitable engaging style, Will Gompertz takes us into the minds of artists—from contemporary stars to old masters, the well-known to the lesser-so, and from around the world—to show us how to look and experience the world with their heightened awareness. In See What You’re Missing we learn, for example, how Hasegawa Tohaku can help us to see beauty, how David Hockney helps us to see colour, and how Frida Kahlo can help us see pain. In doing so we come to know the exhilarating feeling of being truly alive. See What You’re Missing is at once entertaining and enlightening art history while delivering empowering new insights to its reader.

Sam knew agreeing to an alliance with Blue and by proxy the Hounds of Dawn to stop the Sovereign and reestablish control of the Cahlad in exchange for protecting a young lady whose magic has the potential to change the world was a risk. But he never imagined things would fall apart so fast or so spectacularly. Turns out she’s a complete wild card. Now everyone is scattered and fighting for their lives. As they navigate fragile new relationships, unravel treacherous conspiracies, and decipher cryptic prophecies about canned peaches and popcorn palaces, it soon becomes clear that none of them are here by chance. Larger forces have set them on a path toward a magic apocalypse. If they want to survive, they can’t rely on magic alone. They will have to learn to rely on each other. The clock is ticking, the balance of power is shifting, and the fate of every person on the planet is at stake. And the price of saving the world might be losing the people they love.

Download or read book Long Island Aircraft Crashes written by Joshua Stoff and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2004-03-31 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the first fifty years of American aviation, Long Island was at the center of aircraft innovation and flight. There were more aircraft manufacturers and airports located on Long Island than in any other part of the United States. Due to the extraordinarily high volume of air traffic, Long Island also led the country-if not the world-in aircraft crashes. Long Island Aircraft Crashes: 1909-1959 portrays the daring flights, accidents, and mishaps of pioneer pilots, and the conditions that contributed to many crashes. Long Island ultimately saw the earliest air-traffic control systems, airport lighting, aviation weather reports, paved runways, and professional flight schools. Long Island Aircraft Crashes: 1909-1959 contains captivating images from Mitchel Field and Roosevelt Field, the two most active airfields on Long Island. In addition to airfield activity, this book illustrates some of the first experimental flights over Hempstead Plains; military training at Hazelhurst Field; the L.W.F. Owl bomber (the largest landplane of its time); the world's first instrument-guided flight; and Amelia Earhart posing with the new Sperry Gyropilot.
