Download or read book The Time Traveler s Journal written by Ed Masessa and published by Scholastic. This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The time traveler is Lieserl Einstein (who now refers to herself as Lisa.) Born in 1902, there is no record of her existence. The only mention of her birth came when Albert Einstein's personal papers were released to the public in the 1980s. Lisa was exceptionally brilliant, well beyond her father in theoretical and mechanical ability. She went back in time to remove all records of her existence, leaving the mention ofher birth in the private papers as a teaser. The Great Fire of Chicago had nothing to do with a cow, but everything to do with a passing comet that sprayed the upper Great Lakes with debris and caused massive firestorms. A small rock was part of that debris. It contained an incredible amount of stored energy, but was the size of a pea and weighed next to nothing. Lisa purchased this pebble, harnessed its energy, and developed a GCSL device (Galactic Cosmic String Locator) to manipulate the pebble to allow her to locate cosmic string tendrils and ride them to other time periods. This book is Lisa's journal and a synopsis of her travels through time.

Download or read book The Time Machine illustrated written by H. G. Wells and published by BoD - Books on Demand. This book was released on 2022-06-22 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Time Machine by H. G. Wells is a science fiction classic, which lends itself well to visualization. This version, illustrated by Yoann Laurent-Rouault, an illustrator master who graduated from the Beaux-Arts, and published in the international literary collection Memoria Books, is a reference on the time travel theme. Wells transports us in the year 802 701, in a society made up of the “Elois”, who live peacefully in a kind of big Garden of Eden, eating fruits and sleeping high up, while underground lives another species, also descending from men, the “Morlocks”, who do not stand the light anymore, living in the dark for too long now. At night, they return to the surface, going back up by the wells, in order to kidnap some Elois that they eat ; these last became livestock unknowingly. In The Time Machine, made into a movie several times, the last of them in 2002 by Simon Wells, the great-grandson of H. G. Wells, time is both a pretext to move the class struggle and warn... and also, in a way, a full character, who fascinates, arbitrates, transcends... The illustrations come to reinforce the time travel and provide a new experience to the reader.

Download or read book The Time Travelers Academy written by Reginald Williams and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2006-10 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [ www.TheTTAcademy.com ] In time travel theory, there is an unknown aspect of the grandfather paradox. If a person does anything that will affect the future, some force in nature will stop them. In The Time Travelers Academy, this force comes within a hair's breadth of destroying humanity when a comet brings a new and unstoppable plague to Earth. The President makes a choice that will either save Earth's inhabitants or annihilate them. At a secret military academy, ten cadets are selected to travel to the future of Earth's sister planet, in the hope that planet has found a cure for the plague. The mission's leader, John Richards, knows that past time travel risks encountering time eliminators: entities that will absorb him and his crew out of existence before their actions can literally reset the universal timeline. But when Richards learns that his fiance was killed in a contract hit, he's determined to go back in time and prevent her death, even if it risks the destruction of the current Earth.
Download or read book The Time Traveler s Guide to Restoration Britain written by Ian Mortimer and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-04-11 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine you could see the smiles of the people mentioned in Samuel Pepys’s diary, hear the shouts of market traders, and touch their wares. How would you find your way around? Where would you stay? What would you wear? Where might you be suspected of witchcraft? Where would you be welcome? This is an up-close-and-personal look at Britain between the Restoration of King Charles II in 1660 and the end of the century. The last witch is sentenced to death just two years before Isaac Newton’s Principia Mathematica, the bedrock of modern science, is published. Religion still has a severe grip on society and yet some—including the king—flout every moral convention they can find. There are great fires in London and Edinburgh; the plague disappears; a global trading empire develops.Over these four dynamic decades, the last vestiges of medievalism are swept away and replaced by a tremendous cultural flowering. Why are half the people you meet under the age of twenty-one? What is considered rude? And why is dueling so popular? Mortimer delves into the nuances of daily life to paint a vibrant and detailed picture of society at the dawn of the modern world as only he can.
