  Types of UFOs Observed in History

  My goal in this book is to show the different types of UFOs reported throughout history and today. 
  I’m not trying to prove whether these ships are real or not. I just thought that given the many thousands of sightings of UFOs there should be some commonalities between the sightings. 
  Some of the questions I want to answer include: 
  Are there any trends in these sightings? 
  Is there an evolution in the design of these vehicles over time? 
  Are there some common designs over time? 
  Also, some of the UFOs sighted are likely fakes or secret projects built by the US government. I tried to show that information too. 
  Just due to the number of stars in our galaxy I’m convinced that Aliens exist and have probably visited our planet thousands or even millions of year in the past-in addition to visiting in the present. 
  This collection of historical photos, drawings, and descriptions should provide you with a narrative as to how these sightings have changed over time.

  In My First Summer in the Sierra, John Muir recounts his transformative journey through California’s Sierra Nevada in the summer of 1869. As a young Scottish-American naturalist, Muir joins a crew of shepherds driving a flock of sheep to the high mountain meadows. Through vivid and poetic descriptions, he captures the breathtaking landscapes, towering sequoias, rushing rivers, and vast granite peaks. 
  Muir’s keen observations of the flora, fauna, and geology of the region, combined with his deep spiritual connection to nature, reflect his evolving philosophy of wilderness preservation. His journal entries, written with enthusiasm and reverence, reveal his profound love for the Sierra and his growing advocacy for protecting its beauty. 
  This classic work, filled with wonder and awe, is a cornerstone of American nature writing and played a key role in inspiring the conservation movement and the creation of national parks.

  InHumana - An American...

  InHumana: An American Healthcare Story tells how an only child was conscripted into a war with a soulless monstrosity that repeatedly tried to throw his widowed mom's life away with the surreptitious aid of unregulated artificial intelligence. 
  Months after a stroke and two seizures robbed author Jeremy White's mom of use of her right side, a federal judge ruled her the victor of their war against Humana for wrongfully denying critically needed care. Their battle, which involved multiple hearings and appeals, is one that fewer than 10 percent of denied Medicare Advantage Plan members like her bother fighting, despite a 90 percent success rate for appeals. A Pulitzer-nominated investigation and two class-action lawsuits would eventually demystify Humana's wanton gaslighting by revealing the shocking truth behind their inhumane decisions. 
  InHumana is a timely examination of the medical-industrial complex from the belly of the beast that explores what it means to be human and eviscerates the farce of corporate personhood. White's genuine humor buoys heavy topics and hard-learned lessons about a nebulous appeals process. His epilogue—which addresses "Deny," "Defend," and "Depose—was prompted by a surge of interest in InHumana following the assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

  Triumphs and disasters in the deep sea 
  This is a journey through time and water, to the bottom of the ocean and the future of our planet. 
  We do not see the ocean when we look at the water that blankets more than two thirds of our planet. We only see the entrance to it. Beyond that entrance is a world hostile to humans, yet critical to our survival. The first divers to enter that world held their breath and splashed beneath the surface, often clutching rocks to pull them down. Over centuries, they invented wooden diving bells, clumsy diving suits, and unwieldy contraptions in attempts to go deeper and stay longer. But each advance was fraught with danger, as the intruders had to survive the crushing weight of water, or the deadly physiological effects of breathing compressed air. The vertical odyssey continued when explorers squeezed into heavy steel balls dangling on cables, or slung beneath floats filled with flammable gasoline. Plunging into the narrow trenches between the tectonic plates of the Earth’s crust, they eventually reached the bottom of the ocean in the same decade that men first walked on the moon. 
  Today, as nations scramble to exploit the resources of the ocean floor, The Frontier Below recalls a story of human endeavour that took 2,000 years to travel seven miles, then investigates how we will explore the ocean in the future. 
  Meticulously researched and drawing extensively on unpublished sources and personal interviews, The Frontier Below is the untold story of the pioneers who had the right stuff, but were forgotten because they went in the wrong direction. 
  The Frontier Below by Jeff Maynard is a captivating journey through the history of maritime expeditions, the science of physiology, and the economics of resource extraction. It is a testament to human endeavour and the indomitable spirit of exploration, offering a glimpse into the future of our oceans. 
  For fans of Julian Sancton (Madhouse at the End of the Earth), Buddy Levy (Empire of Ice and Stone), Rachel Lance (In the Waves), James Bradley (Ghost Species), and Helen Czerski (Blue Machine).
