Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now a Netflix film starring and directed by Chiwetel Ejiofor, this is a gripping memoir of survival and perseverance about the heroic young inventor who brought electricity to his Malawian village. When a terrible drought struck William Kamkwamba's tiny village in Malawi, his family lost all of the season's crops, leaving them with nothing to eat and nothing to sell. William began to explore science books in his village library, looking for a solution. There, he came up with the idea that would change his family's life forever: he could build a windmill. Made out of scrap metal and old bicycle parts, William's windmill brought electricity to his home and helped his family pump the water they needed to farm the land. Retold for a younger audience, this exciting memoir shows how, even in a desperate situation, one boy's brilliant idea can light up the world. Complete with photographs, illustrations, and an epilogue that will bring readers up to date on William's story, this is the perfect edition to read and share with the whole family.

Download or read book Cinema Beyond the City written by Judith Thissen and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-07-25 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cinema is often perceived as a metropolitan medium – an entertainment product of the big city and for the big city. Yet film exhibitors have been bringing moving pictures to towns and villages since the early days of itinerant shows. This volume presents for the first time an exploration of the social, cultural and economic dynamics of film culture in the European countryside. Spanning more than a century of film exhibition from the early twentieth-century to the present day, Cinema Beyond the City examines the role that movie-going has played in small-town and rural communities across Europe. It documents an amazing diversity of sites and situations that are relevant for understanding historical and current patterns in film consumption. In chapters written by leading scholars and young academics, interdisciplinary research is used to address key questions about access, economic viability, audience behaviour, film programming and the cultural flows between cities and hinterlands. With its wide range of regional studies and innovative methodological approaches, the collection will be of interest not only to film historians, but also to scholars in the fields of urban history, rural studies and cultural geography.
Download or read book Travels with the Wild Man written by Timothy M Nugent and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-09-23 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I am probably the worst fisherman. I love to fish but seem to catch very few. I traveled the Western United States for the last eight years. My girlfriend took most of the pictureswhen we were not able to stop, when the park traffic was packed, or when we had distance to cover. Most of the time we had our two puppies, Lala and Lulu, with us. Fishing poles on the bike. The dogs on the top bag ready to go. Our last spring, summer, and fall, the dogs travelled fifty thousand miles with us. Corina and I would not know what to do without them. I sold my Harley and moved to Costa Rica. It is the first time in forty years that I did not own a motorcycle. My wife passed away eight years ago, and I began to write poetry. This will be my ninth book published through Xlibris. I love to write simple prose and travel. This is my third travel log. I hope you enjoy it. Please check out my website: www.understanding-online.com. It is a fun website with lots of buttons (especially the buy buttons). Any questions? My e-mail is: [email protected]. May you have a great life, pura vida (the good life)! Timothy M. Nugent
