Summary

Discover the paranormal past of this historic Georgia river town on the outskirts of Atlanta—includes photos!   Roswell, Georgia, is haunted by the lingering ghosts of generations long dead. In this historic town, spirits roam through ruined mills, antebellum mansions, and slave cabins, searching for those lost in the battles of the Civil War.   From the banks of the Chattahoochee to the streets of Roswell’s historic district, chilling specters remind us of this charming Southern town’s shocking past. Author Dianna Avena blends Roswell’s history with tales of the city’s most famous haunts—from the slave quarters of Bulloch Hall to the cracked graves in Founder’s Cemetery—to send chills down the spines of locals and visitors alike.

    The Villa Ariadne stands above the Minoan ruins of Knossos in Crete, a memorial to the British archaeologists who built, lived and worked there. Dilys Powell brings to life the autocratic founder Arthur Evans and his successor John Pendlebury, whose heroic leadership of the local defence against German invasion in 1941 made him a legend. The villa was also the site of the daring kidnap of German General Kreipe by special operations officers, including Patrick Leigh Fermor, in 1944. But The Villa Ariadne is far more than just their story. Uniting ancient myths and history with first-hand observation and tales she is told, Dilys Powell leaves us a complex portrait of the island as a whole - a place she knew and loved for forty years.

    Five works by the naturalist considered the father of the modern conservation movement, documenting the unspoiled beauty of nineteenth-century America.  When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe. —John Muir, My First Summer in the Sierra   The name of John Muir has come to stand for the protection of wild land and wilderness in both America and Britain. Born in Scotland in 1838, Muir is famed as the father of American conservation and the founder of the Sierra Club. This collection, including the rarely seen Stickeen, presents the finest of Muir’s writings, painting a portrait of a man whose generosity, passion, and vision are an inspiration to this day.   Combining acute observation, amusing anecdotes, and a sense of inner discovery, Muir’s writings of his travels though some of the greatest landscapes on Earth, including the Carolinas, Florida, Alaska, and those lands that were to become the great National Parks of Yosemite and the Sierra Valley, raise an awareness of nature to a spiritual dimension.   Includes an introduction by Graham White
