Title: Endurance Pdf Shackleton's Incredible Voyage

"One of the most gripping, suspenseful, intense stories anyone will ever read."―Chicago Tribune"Riveting."―The New York Times"Without a doubt this painstakingly written authentic adventure story will rank as one of the classic tales of the heroic age of exploration."―Christian Science Monitor"Grit in the face of seemingly insurmountable adversity."―Wall Street Journal"[An] incomparable telling of Shackleton's travails."―Mary Roach, New York Times Book Review Alfred Lansing (1921-1975) was a native of Chicago. After serving more than five years in the Navy, he enrolled at Northwestern University, where he studied journalism. Until 1949 he edited a weekly newspaper in Illinois, later joined the United Press, and eventually became a freelance writer.

The harrowing tale of British explorer Ernest Shackleton's 1914 attempt to reach the South Pole, one of the greatest adventure stories of the modern age.

In August 1914, polar explorer Ernest Shackleton boarded the Endurance and set sail for Antarctica, where he planned to cross the last uncharted continent on foot. In January 1915, after battling its way through a thousand miles of pack ice and only a day's sail short of its destination, the Endurance became locked in an island of ice. Thus began the legendary ordeal of Shackleton and his crew of twenty-seven men.

For ten months the ice-moored Endurance drifted northwest before it was finally crushed between two ice floes. With no options left, Shackleton and a skeleton crew attempted a near-impossible journey over 850 miles of the South Atlantic's heaviest seas to the closest outpost of civilization. Their survival, and the survival of the men they left behind, depended on their small lifeboat successfully finding the island of South Georgia--a tiny dot of land in a vast and hostile ocean.

In Endurance, the definitive account of Ernest Shackleton's fateful trip, Alfred Lansing brilliantly narrates the harrowing and miraculous voyage that has defined heroism for the modern age.

Wrong Format I do not want to say anything that might diminish this incredible story or the heroism of all the men involved. But, this should have been a short story and not a full blown novel. There is not one moment of levity in the entire book. It is simply tension at a high level for page after page after page. There is only so much snow, ice, freezing water, freezing temperatures, waves, ice pack, ice pressure, wind, hopeless, etc., etc., etc. that a person can take. After a while it all becomes somewhat of a blur and is boring, especially when you know how the story ends. I only wanted to finish the book and move on to something more interesting. If that kind of book is what you are looking for, then you will love this book. It really is an incredible story and it is a story well told.Have you ever had a horrible nightmare from which you thought you wouldn’t be awakened ... Have you ever had a horrible nightmare from which you thought you wouldn’t be awakened from? A nightmare so bad that you felt deep consternation even after waking up from it. Quite glad did you become when realization came to you that it was just a dream - now you were in your warm bed, and you are safe. This book is the story of Ernest Shackleton and his 27 men. The difference between your nightmare and theirs is that there was no awakening for them- theirs was real. They lost their ship during Antarctic expedition, named "Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition."Before the expedition, Shackleton named the ship "Endurance" from his family motto, "Fortitudine vincimus" (By endurance we conquer). Very interesting is it to know the crew survived between the wreckage of their ship, Endurance, and their rescue only though tough endurance, so shows their story from this book. The author of this book, Alfred Lansing, was a journalist all his life. He has done a great job at compiling official sail records, each crew's journal, background world’s history, personal interviews, ship's manufacture features, and all the information relevant to Endurance and expedition. Through this book will you gain many new perspectives in respect to this expedition, if you already knew their story. If you didn’t know about them, while reading this book, you will feel as though you are their stowaway crew member, having survived along with them on their unexpected 17-month-long journey and be awed at how so did theyAt times, I slowed down and carefully read with wrinkles between my eyes with much concern for the crew members' well-being. I was worried something horrific might come upon the crew when they run out of food, water; some fell off the boat; many had frostbite; and one had gangrene on his toes from severe frostbite. At other times, I burst out laughing loudly at funny jokes that they made each other, and positive mindset, despite their grim ordeal.Shackleton's leadership could be a matter of interest to you. He showed countless courageous leadership decisions and sacrifices for his crew throughout the journey. Had it not been for his innate leadership, I am certain the rest of 27 men would not have seen their family ever again. On voyage, they would toast by saying "For our wives and children. May they never meet." Then did they not have a slightest inkling on how Shackleton would lead them from the grasp of death in the coming months.A Riveting True Story of Adventure, Survival and Hope In 1914 Sir Ernest Shackleton set out on an expedition to make the first land crossing of the barren Antarctic continent from the east to the west coast. The expedition failed to accomplish its objective, but became recognized instead as an amazing feat of endurance. Shackleton and a crew of 27 (plus one stowaway) first headed to the Weddell Sea on the ship Endurance. Their ship was trapped by pack ice short of their destination and eventually crushed. Forced to abandon ship, the men were trapped on ice floes for months while they drifted north. Once they were far enough north that the ice thinned somewhat, they were forced to journey in lifeboats they'd dragged off the ship. After six terrible days, they made it to uninhabited Elephant Island; from there Shackleton and five other men set off in an open 22-foot boat on an incredible 800-mile voyage across the notoriously tempestuous Drake Passage to South Georgia Island, where they hiked across the island’s mountain range to reach a whaling camp. From there, they returned in a ship to rescue the men left behind on Elephant Island.That these men were able to survive in the harsh, barren conditions of Antarctica, where temperatures frequently fell below zero is amazing. It’s nearly unimaginable that these men could survive for almost two years, their lives marked by a seemingly endless stretch of misery, suffering, and boredom, not to mention the threat of starvation. At every turn, their situation seems to go from bad to worse. If this were a work of fiction, one would be inclined to claim the story was simply too far-fetched. But Endurance isn't just a tale of misery, it is a vivid description of their journey, the dangers they faced, and the obstacles they overcame. Through all of this, Shackleton has never lost a man.Alfred Lansing's book, written in 1958 from interviews and journals of the survivors, is now back in print. It’s a riveting tale of adventure, survival and hope. It is also a rare historical, non-fiction book that is as exciting as any novel. I’ve read a number of stories of survival and would rate this as the best of all I have read. This is one of the great adventure stories of our time. Don’t miss it.

Title: Memories of Tomorrow Pdf Nameless, Book 6

What strange science made Nameless who he is? What catastrophes have been erased from his memories? And what foreboding visions plaguing him are about to be realized?

In Indiana, a murderous psycho has kidnapped his own six-year-old stepson, Jamie, and secreted him away in a subterranean cave. It's become their bunker. For Nameless, the case is breaking down his defenses, and it may force him to face his memories. As his dark past comes flooding back, how much does he really want to know?

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz comes Memories of Tomorrow, part of Nameless, a riveting collection of short stories about a vigilante nomad, stripped of his memories and commissioned to kill. Follow him in each story, which can be read or listened to in a single sitting.

Wow is not a big enough word A fully satisfying conclusion to an extraordinary compilation of stories each detailing the carrying out of truth (or is it karma) to particularly evil people. I especially like the vision of this as a hopeful reality. Again, I clap my hands energetically at Mr Koontz’ brilliant imagination and creative writing.Probably my favorite of this series Sigh. That's what I did when I got to the last part of this novella. Because the truth can be an overwhelming burden, especially to one who chooses to bring truth to the monsters he pursues.I read through this entire series in two days, and only took that long because I had other things to do.I like Nameless almost as much as Odd Thomas. The character is built in such a way that I rooted for him, and hoped for something so bizarre, miraculous and out of the ordinary to happen to make this ending a good one for him, for his life to be 'righted' as Dean Koontz has done for so many other characters.I look forward to the stories yet to come for Nameless. I hope, that in time, he gets to face the adversary he deserves to encounter.He did it again Dean Koontz once again proves what a great writer he is. This story was short but kept me reading from page one to the end without stopping. It wasnt until the end that you were shown the thrilling climax. So many stories you can easily figure out this one had me crying but also saying wow didnt see that coming. Read this book

"Kelly Brogan engages us in a courageous conversation about the epidemic of mental health issues in our society. Her work is an important part of the understanding that will set us free, at a time when an increasingly narrow interpretation of why such issues exist--and what we need to do to heal them--is as much a part of the problem as part of the solution."- Marianne Williamson, New York Times best-selling author of A Return to Love"We are in an age where mental, emotional, and physical balance has become our highest value. Own Your Selfgives you the best possible solution on how to change your mind, your body, and your life.

She completed her psychiatric training and fellowship at NYU Medical Center after graduating from Cornell University Medical College and has a B.S. from M.I.T. in Systems Neuroscience. She is board-certified in psychiatry, psychosomatic medicine, and integrative holistic medicine and is specialized in a root-cause resolution approach to psychiatric syndromes and symptoms. She is a certified KRI Kundalini Yoga teacher and a mother of two.

New York Times best-selling author presents a radical alternative to psychotropic meds: discerning the meaning in your symptoms and your struggle as a way to reclaim your health and your self.

For years, we've been telling ourselves that our difficult feelings-sadness, rage, shame, intensity, worry-are somehow "not okay." And, all too often, we've relied on the promise of pharmaceuticals to tamp them down. The fact is, though, that these feelings are a vital part of our experience. They are real. And those of us who feel them most strongly are the canaries in the coalmine-sensitive to things that are seriously wrong in the world today.
In a book that's both provocative and promising, holistic psychiatrist Kelly Brogan, M.D., author of A Mind of Your Own, shows us that we don't have to medicate our mental, emotional, and physical pain away-that the best way out is through. She explodes the mistaken belief that our symptoms-from mood changes to irritability to fogginess and fatigue-are evidence that we are sick or broken. Then she charts a new path to get real, get well, and get free. The journey includes:
  •  Coming to a new appreciation of the meaning behind symptoms, and whether you are a canary in the coal mine
  •  Learning the 2 major risks of medication that most doctors are not trained to disclose
  •  Exploring the 5 reversible physical drivers of so-called mental illness
  •  Starting the process of radical physical healing with inclusive details of Dr. Brogan's history-making 30-day protocol
  •  Taking an emotional inventory of energy drains and toxic relationships
  •  Taking a deeper dive into the spiritual awakening and expansion that comes when you reclaim your real self from conventional medicine
  •  Identifying the most likely places you have given your power away
  •  Understanding what the science has to say about psychedelics as a tool for awakening
  •  Navigating health challenges with curiosity and the proper tools
  •  Guidance, support, and many Travel Tips shared from the trenches!
Our experiences, Dr. Brogan argues, aren't problems or pathologies; they reflect what we need to accept, acknowledge, and transform in order to truly become who we are. Own Your Self is a journey of healing, and also something more: a journey of coming home to ourselves.

This book is life changing I wept when I finished this book. Sobbed and shed pain I had carried for a lifetime. I spent 10 years in the mental health system and finally got out, but carried around with me the story that "I am bad." I am sick, I am wrong, I can't figure it out, I don't know the way. It is a victim story that comes from a life of victimization. But now I am almost 40, why am I lugging that around? How do I get out of that prison and feel alive? How do I embody this power? This is the manual. And what I find most beautiful is that Dr. Brogan is a psychiatrist speaking from the "we." How do WE wake up, together. If I am not in fact sick, bad or wrong, how do I break the chains of that story and the patterning that I am currently living out? And, even bigger, if the parts of me that I called sick and bad are actually the beauty that leads to the healing of the world, how can WE support them in coming forward so that we all can stand in joy? Those are the questions that she speaks to with such eloquence and love. And what I know now is that my shame was always, and will always be, my greatest light. And I am the one with the power to bring that out of the closet into celebration.Radical Healing Dr. Brogan, herself a psychiatrist, delved into the research and concluded that there's not a single valid study showing that depression is due to a chemical imbalance. Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and a wide array of other so-called psychiatric "conditions" can instead be viewed as symptoms of nutritional sensitivities or deficiencies, toxic exposure, thyroid imbalance, trauma and self-defeating beliefs. In this book she puts forth a radical message: that the standard pharmaceutical-based approach to healing is actually harming patients, not healing them. It is her deeply held and well-researched belief that these problems and many more are entirely treatable with lifestyle medicine. Dr. Brogan describes in detail what that means in terms that make it available to everyone. This book is an invitation to take control of your health. Potentially life-changing and life-saving for many people."I no longer think of myself as a doctor." I'm sure many of you believe in Kelly Brogan, as I once did. She's gorgeous, successful, and persuasive. I have all three of her books; she got me meditating over a year ago.I thought I'd just share some of my highlights from it and let you make up your own mind whether you want to go all-in on what she's currently selling. (And she is constantly selling. Plugs for her previous books and especially for her $300 Vital Mind Reset online course saturate the book.)The word "healing" appears 244 times in the book, whereas "cure" appears 6 times."Kundalini" appears 43 times."Quantum" appears 25 times.The term "morphic resonance" appears 9 times.In her own words:"It has never actually been proven that germs travel from one person to another and infect them.""We have been conditioned to look upon the tender topic of suicide with horror.""Acknowledge that your desire to commit suicide is part of your experience of self-healing and transformation.""When you are in [suicidal] crisis... Avoid people who... might resort to reflexive interventions like recruiting the authorities, even if they are your most dearly loved ones.""I couldn't remember the last time a woman completed her tapering work with me and still had her primary romantic relationship--namely, marital partnership--intact.""I calculated that I have an astronomical divorce rate from start to finish of the taper and transformation process."I hope we can agree that there's some serious red flags there.I give it three stars because I learned a few things and she's right about so much. Chapter 2 is particularly valuable.For another psychiatrist that shares a similar dietary approach but without all the woo-woo, Dr. Georgia Ede is excellent.

Wrong.

In this electrifying exposé, Hayley Nolan explores for the first time the full, uncensored evidence of Anne Boleyn’s life and relationship with Henry VIII, revealing the shocking suppression of a powerful woman.

So leave all notions of outdated and romanticised folklore at the door and forget what you think you know about one of the Tudors’ most notorious queens. She may have been silenced for centuries, but this urgent book ensures Anne Boleyn’s voice is being heard now.

Title: The New One Pdf Painfully True Stories from a Reluctant Dad

"The genius of this book is that Mike Birbiglia and J. Hope Stein have invented a totally new form. He tells incredibly funny stories. She gives a gorgeous, epic view of the same events, in poetry (she's a published poet who's been in The New Yorker). It's about what they went through together, not wanting to have kids, and then having kids, through these two very different lenses. Their diabolical writing trick: sometimes she delivers the laughs and he delivers the feelings."―Ira Glass, host of Public Radio's This American Life Mike Birbiglia is a comedian, storyteller, director, actor and New York Times bestselling author who has performed in front of audiences worldwide. His shows, "My Girlfriend's Boyfriend," "Thank God for Jokes," were both filmed for Netflix. His most recent show, "The New One," ran for 99 shows at the Cort Theatre on Broadway.In addition to performing live, Mike wrote, directed, and starred in the films Sleepwalk with Me and Don't Think Twice. His first book Sleepwalk with Me and Other Painfully True Stories was a finalist for the Thurber Prize for American Humor. As an actor, Mike has appeared on Inside Amy Schumer, HBO's Girls and Broad City, as well as in films like Trainwreck, The Fault in Our Stars, and Popstar. He played a recurring role in Orange is the New Black and Billions. He is a frequent contributor to Public Radio's This American Life and The Moth Radio Hour and was honored in 2017 with the Kurt Vonnegut Award for humor. J. Hope Stein is a poet, and the author of Little Astronaut. Her work has been published in The New Yorker and Poetry International.

With laugh-out-loud observations on the rollercoaster ride that is being a new parent, New York Times bestselling author and award-winning comedian Mike Birbiglia delivers a book that is perfect for anyone who has ever raised a child, been a child, or refuses to stop acting like a child.

In 2016 comedian Mike Birbiglia and poet Jennifer Hope Stein took their fourteen-month-old daughter Oona to the Nantucket Film Festival. When the festival director picked them up at the airport she asked Mike if he would perform at the storytelling night.

She said, "The theme of the stories is jealousy."

Jen quipped, "You're jealous of Oona. You should talk about that."

And so Mike began sharing some of his darkest and funniest thoughts about the decision to have a child. Jen and Mike revealed to each other their sides of what had gone down during Jen's pregnancy and that first year with their child.

Over the next couple years, these stories evolved into a Broadway show, and the more Mike performed it the more he heard how it resonated-not just with parents but also people who resist all kinds of change. So he pored over his journals, dug deeper, and created this book: The New One: Painfully True Stories From a Reluctant Dad. Along with hilarious and poignant stories he has never shared before, these pages are sprinkled with poetry Jen wrote as she navigated the same rocky shores of new parenthood.

So here it is. This book is an experiment.

Sort of like a family.

Title: National Geographic The Photo Ark Pdf One Man's Quest to Document the World's Animals
Author: Joel Sartore
Published Date: 2017
Page: 400

“This is one of the most scientifically important—and artistically brilliant—books ever.  I don’t know of any other book that has such power. You cannot see these sensitive portraits of the diversity of animals living on Planet Earth and not be entranced. And moved. And inspired to do all you can to ensure they stay with us. Joel Sartore is an ambassador extraordinaire for the beleaguered animals of our planet and should receive a Nobel Prize. No one can look at these sensitive portraits of the incredible animal beings and not be amazed and inspired to do all in our power to preserve them—all of them, all the complex tapestry of life—for our children and theirs. I can think of no other book with such a compelling message: We must each do all that we can to preserve these incredible beings—all of them.  And we must act now, or it will be too late for most of them.”—Jane Goodall   “Joel Sartore’s The Photo Ark is a magnificent, awe-inspiring, encyclopedic, and forward-looking book. It surely will be game-changer for getting people to connect or to reconnect with other animals and the various landscapes that serve as their homes—to ‘rewild’ their heart—and to become deeply re-enchanted with the remarkable, fascinating, and diverse beings with whom we share our wondrous planet. I shall share it widely with a broad audience, including youngsters, who are the ambassadors for our and other animals’ future. I hope this spectacular work of art enjoys a global audience, and I honestly don't see how it won’t. It is that good.”—Marc Bekoff   “We owe it to these animals, as they struggle for survival on a human-dominated planet, to look them in the eye. Joel Sartore’s awestruck and awe-inspiring photos make that an experience of deep heart and beauty.”—David Quammen“We love them. We are exterminating them. We have no idea most of them even exist. Every painting of Noah’s Ark shows those familiar few animals we all agree seem worthy of salvation. Elephants, giraffes...but every one of them—and most others on Earth—are in fact in mortal danger now. Their flood is us. Yet when expecting new human life we paint animals on our nursery walls. We don’t paint computers or work cubicles. We paint animals, our subconscious, hope-filled wish to greet our unborn child by saying, ‘Welcome into this life-filled world. We are not alone. We have wondrous company.’ It’s time we met those splendid souls with whom we are failing to share our planet, whom we are annihilating. Joel Sartore’s stunning images are powerful enough to make us all ask and answer the question: ‘What will I do?’”  — Carl Safina, author of Beyond Words; What Animals Think and Feel JOEL SARTORE is a photographer, speaker, author, teacher, and a 25-year contributor to National Geographic magazine as well as Audubon, Geo, Time, Life, Newsweek, and Sports Illustrated. He has written several books including National Geographic's Rare: Portraits of America's Endangered Species, Photographing Your Family, and Let's Be Reasonable, a collection of essays from the CBS Sunday Morning show. Sartore and his work have been the subjects of several national broadcasts, including the National Geographic Channel's Explorer, the NBC Nightly News, NPR's Weekend Edition, and an hour-long PBS documentary, At Close Range. He is also a contributor on the CBS Sunday Morning Show with Charles Osgood. HARRISON FORD is an American actor and film producer. He gained worldwide fame for his starring roles as Han Solo in the original Star Wars epic space opera trilogy and the title character of the Indiana Jones film series. DOUGLAS CHADWICK has reported on wildlife around the world, from right whales in the subantarctic to snow leopards in the Himalayas, producing close to 50 articles for National Geographic magazine. He has written 13 books about wildlife and conservation, including several focused on the Rocky Mountains.

The lush and unique photography in this book represents National Geographic's Photo Ark, a major initiative and lifelong project by photographer Joel Sartore to make portraits of the world's animals—especially those that are endangered. His powerful message, conveyed with humor, compassion, and art: to know these animals is to save them.

Sartore is circling the globe, visiting zoos and wildlife rescue centers to create studio portraits of 12,000 species, with an emphasis on those facing extinction. Wiht a goal of photographing every animal in captivity in the world, he has photographed more than 6,000 already and now, thanks to a multi-year partnership with National Geographic, he may reach his goal. This book showcases his animal portraits: from tiny to mammoth, from the Florida grasshopper sparrow to the greater one-horned rhinoceros. Paired with the eloquent prose of veteran wildlife writer Douglas Chadwick, and an inspiring foreword from Harrison Ford, this book presents a thought-provoking argument for saving all the species of our planet.

In the Author's own words, "he is a voice for the voiceless." Stunning book. Not only were the animal photos the best I have ever seen, (In fact many of the animals were completely unknown to me) but the way the author presented them, giving each the significance they deserved. Joel's story about how he began and continued his immense journey and important work is a call to all of us to protect and be stewards of our beautiful home and all who inhabit it. II was so impressed with the book, I purchased a copy for each of my sisters, who are not much into the environmental movement.Save our planet After buying this book for a gift, I read every page! The animal photos, plus the artistry of the photographer are so spectacular. It seems like the animals are looking right at you from the page. I'll be buying more for gifts and my home. The most telling photo was a species where there were only four left in the world. Photographer Joel Sartore captured two of them on film.Buy this Book for Yourself, Your Kids, Your Grandkids! My first copy of this book was a gift from friends. When I opened it, I could not put it down until I had at least briefly seen every image, even though I had visitors. Each image of many diverse animals was compelling. The “animal portraits” were created against black or white backgrounds, eliminating all distractions from the animals themselves. Sartore knew he could not photograph such a wide range in the wild even if he had several lifetimes. With a goal to document animals alive on earth, and with many in decline and/or facing extinction, he knew the best chance would come from photographing animals in captivity and in breeding programs. That does not mean the photography was easy! As a photographer, I appreciated a series of vignettes scattered through the volume on “Making the Photographs.” The images alone are reason enough to buy the book.The collection of images was meant to convey messages about the fragility, beauty, and interconnectedness of life on Earth. It does that powerfully. I appreciated the interspersed vignettes on “Heroes” scattered throughout the volume.A few reviewers stated that the paper and printing of the book were not of the quality they expected. Personally, I was both amazed and grateful that this beautiful book was available at a price many people could afford. A true art book would be beyond the reach of many people, which would defeat Sartore’s purpose in creating the book. I’m quite satisfied with the quality of this volume.I have now purchased this book as a gift for friends, who I know will share it and discuss it with their grandchildren. The next generation will painlessly learn about biodiversity and our responsibilities as caretakers of our Earth.A wonderfully conceived and beautiful effort everyone can enjoy.
