Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is not one person in this world that has not, at one time or another, searched for something that seemed unattainable. It may be something different for each of us, but we all search – for our own ‘prize’ – in our own way. Every human comes to question the direction of his or her life at some point.

The journey IS the destination...and it is always worth it.
Download or read book Tales and Truths From The Southernmost Point written by Cindy de León and published by BookLocker.com, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-07-30 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The island of Key West located on the Southernmost Point of the United States has always been a place known for its uniqueness and mystery. Many people that don't know the island, perhaps, believe it is a place to just have fun, relax, and go on vacation - but the small island has and always has had so much more to give. It is a very nurturing place where real families live and thrive. This is well known to the writer because it was where she grew up. These island stories are inspired by the lives and struggles of those she loved, her ancestors, and sometimes her own life. Many of the characters are larger than life and perhaps unimaginable, but such is the essence of the people who have lived on the island for centuries. Those people were and still are fighters and survivors and there is no better way to celebrate them than to give the reader a bit of that spice and many times, reality, the stories bring with them. The tales are dramatic, colorful, and sometimes humorous. The people of the island, her people, are imperfect, bold, vivacious, friendly, sensitive, and very outspoken. She wants the stories to touch the reader like the people of the island have touched the hearts of so many for so long. She wishes the reader to have the experience of jumping into the warm saltwater existence of a place that transcends time, sleeps, and awakens to a new life, even amidst storms. These stories are not for cowards, they may contain challenging truths, strong language, and situations that may cause people to think, but like the people they speak of, they also contain the balsam of healing, love, understanding, forgiveness, and peace because the author truly believes it is a place populated with lessons and blessings from above.
Download or read book Southernmost written by Silas House and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A novel for our time, a courageous and necessary book.” —Jennifer Haigh, author of Heat and Light In this stunning novel about judgment, courage, heartbreak, and change, author Silas House wrestles with the limits of belief and the infinite ways to love. In the aftermath of a flood that washes away much of a small Tennessee town, evangelical preacher Asher Sharp offers shelter to two gay men. In doing so, he starts to see his life anew—and risks losing everything: his wife, locked into her religious prejudices; his congregation, which shuns Asher after he delivers a passionate sermon in defense of tolerance; and his young son, Justin, caught in the middle of what turns into a bitter custody battle. With no way out but ahead, Asher takes Justin and flees to Key West, where he hopes to find his brother, Luke, whom he’d turned against years ago after Luke came out. And it is there, at the southernmost point of the country, that Asher and Justin discover a new way of thinking about the world, and a new way of understanding love. Southernmost is a tender and affecting book, a meditation on love and its consequences.

Download or read book Ibn al Haytham New Astronomy and Spherical Geometry written by Roshdi Rashed and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-10-12 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a unique primary source on the history and philosophy of mathematics and science from the mediaeval Arab world. The fourth volume of A History of Arabic Sciences and Mathematics is complemented by three preceding volumes which focused on infinitesimal determinations and other chapters of classical mathematics. This book includes five main works of the polymath Ibn al-Haytham (Alhazen) on astronomy, spherical geometry and trigonometry, plane trigonometry and studies of astronomical instruments on hour lines, horizontal sundials and compasses for great circles. In particular, volume four examines: the increasing tendency to mathematize the inherited astronomy from Greek sources, namely Ptolemy's Almagest; the development of celestial kinematics; new research in spherical geometry and trigonometry required by the new kinematical theory; the study on astronomical instruments and its impact on mathematical research. These new historical materials and their mathematical and historical commentaries contribute to rewriting the history of mathematical astronomy and mathematics from the 11th century on. Including extensive commentary from one of the world’s foremost authorities on the subject, this fundamental text is essential reading for historians and mathematicians at the most advanced levels of research.

A great tour that takes the author as a solo traveller over 13,000 kilometres and through 23 countries in Europe.

Download or read book A General History of the Civil War written by Gary C. Walker and published by Pelican Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people believe that the Civil War was started by the Southern states because of slavery and the issue of secession. Here the author argues differently: Southerners believed that they would benefit from a different form of government than that of their Northern neighbors. Southerners, whose economy depended on agriculture, felt that the industrialized North passed laws and set taxes unfair to the South. In this history, Walker includes descriptions of daring raids, massive battles, and life-and-death struggles that changed one nation and destroyed another. In between are tales of the North's misdeeds, such as the massacre of more than 600 American Indians, the burning of Confederate hospitals, and Lincoln's imprisonment of more than 40,000 citizens who dared to oppose him.

Download or read book Strabo s Geography written by Strabo and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-06-11 with total page 1105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lively new translation of Strabo’s complete Geography—an encyclopedic guide to the ancient world of the first century CE—connecting it with the world of the twenty-first century Strabo’s Geography is an encyclopedic description of the ancient world as it appeared to a contemporary observer in the early Roman empire. Information about taming elephants, collecting saffron, producing asphalt, and practicing yoga is found alongside accounts of prostitution, volcanic activity, religious festivals, and obscure eastern dynasties—all set against the shifting backdrop of political power in the first century CE. Traveling around the Mediterranean, Strabo gathered knowledge of places and people, supplementing his firsthand experiences with an immense amount of reading to create a sweeping chronicle that attempts to answer the implicit questions “Who are we?” and “Where do we come from?” Sarah Pothecary’s new translation of Strabo’s complete Geography makes this important work more accessible, relevant, and enjoyable than ever before. Conveying the informal, lively, and almost journalistic style of Strabo’s Greek, this translation connects the ancient and modern worlds by providing modern names and maps for places mentioned in the text, a generous page layout, and marginal notes, allowing readers to appreciate Strabo’s work directly and immediately. The result mimics what Strabo was doing two thousand years ago—relating the rapidly changing present of his original readers to their own ancient past. A remarkably modern translation of a revealing window on the ancient world, this is essential reading for anyone interested in how we look at both antiquity and the world today.
