DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Conquest of the Isthmus: The Men Who Are Building the Panama Canal Their Daily Lives, Perils, and Adventures HE Panama Canal never will be dug by ma chinery alone. Beyond the steam shovels and the dirt trains, beyond the air-drillers and the dredges, the union of the Atlantic and the Pacific depends upon the men who are giving health, wealth, and life in the battle with the tropical jungle. It is of these men, the khaki heroes of the wilderness, of whom I would tell, the men who have rubbed elbows with death from almost every angle and in almost every guise, in order that the American nation might win the greatest industrial victory in the history of the world.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Facts of Life This book is practically a sequel to The Fact of Christ (published in 1900), inasmuch as the topics discussed in these chapters - especially the later chapters - and many points raised in their treatment have been suggested mainly through the correspondence which his earlier work brought to the author from varied quarters. He can hardly expect that this volume, dealing as it does with questions chosen just on account of the difficulties they present to many perplexed or inquiring minds, will receive the measure of acceptance so kindly accorded to its predecessor; but if in some degree it helps, it will not altogether fail of its end. The two books are written for persons at somewhat different stages. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn a lively collection of feature obituaries and related news stories, longtime newspaper reporter George Hesselberg celebrates life, sharing the most fascinating stories that came from decades of covering the obit and public safety beats. In more than forty years at the Wisconsin State Journal, Hesselberg frequently found himself writing about fatal accidents, crime investigations, and the deaths of the wealthy, famous, or notorious. But he was most drawn to the curious, the unknown, and the unsung—the deaths that normally wouldn’t make much of a splash, if any mention at all, in the news columns of a daily paper. Digging deeper, he uncovered the extraordinary among the ordinary, memorializing the lives of a sword designer, a radio villain, a pioneering female detective, a homeless woman who spoke fluent French, a beloved classroom tarantula, and many more. Their stories are alternately amusing, sad, surprising, and profound. Together they speak to a shared human experience and inspire us to see the people around us with new eyes, valuing the lives while they are still being lived.
