Returning to his beloved North, Caylen brings along his new Hopi bride Aponi, her mother and a Hopi man. The young couple, now wealthy beyond their wildest dreams, are soon at home in their beautiful log mansion on their private island Utopia. Eerie events begin to interrupt their utopian wilderness life-style. Strange, friendly beings residing on the same island suddenly make their presence known to Caylen and his family by presenting them with a wonderful gift. A mysterious craft appears out of the sky and crashes through the big lake's winter ice. A beautiful white wolf appears, becomes enamored with Warrior-Caylen's Pet wolf-and is soon part of the family. Blessed with extraordinary supernatural powers, Caylen is required to embark on several missions as he fulfills his obligations as a Special Constable in the Northwest Mounted Police. These investigations nearly cause his demise and require use of the powers bestowed upon him by Sania, the old Hopi medicine man who had befriended Caylen years earlier. When an intruder from his past places his family in extreme danger, Caylen is forced to call upon forces from his past for assistance. Circumstances during this period require Caylen to make difficult choices; choices that-unknown to him at the time-will affect his entire family and friends, altering their future and their lives forever.

Enjoy the best-selling memoir of Charles Darwin's journey of discovery aboard the HMS Beagle--now fully illustrated for the first time. The Voyage of the Beagle is Darwin's fascinating account of his groundbreaking sea voyage that led to his writing On the Origin of Species. When the HMS Beagle sailed out of Devonport on December 27, 1831, Charles Darwin was only twenty-two and setting off on the voyage of a lifetime. His journal reveals him to be a naturalist making patient observations concerning geology and natural history as well as people, places, and events. He witnessed and visited volcanoes in the Galapagos, saw the Gossamer spider of Patagonia, sailed through the Australasian coral reefs, and recorded the brilliance of the firefly--these recollections are found in these extraordinary writings. The insights made on the five-year voyage set in motion the intellectual currents that led to the most controversial book of the Victorian age: On the Origin of Species. An introduction on the background to Darwin's work, as well as notes, maps, appendices, and an essay on scientific geology and the Bible by Robert FitzRoy, Darwin's friend and captain of the Beagle, provide context for this incredible story. This volume is the first fully illustrated edition of Darwin's journal and includes excerpts of On the Origin of Species so the reader can connect the author's journey with his discovery that made him famous.

ST. JAGO—CAPE DE VERD ISLANDS After having been twice driven back by heavy south-western gales, Her Majesty's ship Beagle," a ten-gun brig, under the command of Captain Fitz Roy, R.N., sailed from Devonport on the 27th of December, 1831. The object of the expedition was to complete the survey of Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego, commenced under Captain King in 1826 to 1830--to survey the shores of Chile, Peru, and of some islands in the Pacific--and to carry a chain of chronometrical measurements round the World. On the 6th of January we reached Teneriffe, but were prevented landing, by fears of our bringing the cholera: the next morning we saw the sun rise behind the rugged outline of the Grand Canary Island, and suddenly illumine the Peak of Teneriffe, whilst the lower parts were veiled in fleecy clouds. This was the first of many delightful days never to be forgotten. On the 16th of January 1832 we anchored at Porto Praya, in St. Jago, the chief island of the Cape de Verd archipelago.
