George Manville Fenn's 'Old Gold: The Cruise of the Jason Brig' is a captivating adventure novel set in the backdrop of a thrilling sea voyage. Fenn's vivid descriptions and attention to detail immerse readers in the world of maritime exploration, complete with hidden treasures and high-stakes adventures. The literary style depicts the excitement of discovery and the dangers of the unknown, making it a compelling read for those interested in maritime fiction of the 19th century. Fenn's use of suspense and plot twists keeps readers on the edge of their seats throughout the narrative. George Manville Fenn, a prolific Victorian-era author, drew inspiration from his own experiences as a sailor and adventurer to craft 'Old Gold.' His firsthand knowledge of the sea and sailing ships adds an authentic touch to the novel, making the reader feel as if they are on the deck of the Jason Brig alongside the characters. Fenn's passion for storytelling shines through in the pages of this thrilling maritime tale. I highly recommend 'Old Gold: The Cruise of the Jason Brig' to anyone seeking a gripping adventure novel with a maritime twist. Fenn's masterful storytelling and immersive writing style make this book a must-read for fans of classic seafaring literature.

    Explanation of what off-grid living means Off-grid living is a lifestyle that involves living without the reliance on public utilities such as electricity, water, and gas. Instead, individuals generate their own power using renewable energy sources like solar, wind, or hydroelectric energy. They also use alternative sources for heating and cooking, such as wood-burning stoves or geothermal systems. 
    The concept of off-grid living is not new, and has been around for centuries. Before the advent of modern public utilities, people lived off the land, using natural resources to sustain themselves. This involved growing crops and raising livestock for food, collecting rainwater, and using wood or coal for heating and cooking. 
    Today, off-grid living is becoming more popular due to concerns about climate change, rising energy costs, and the desire for a more self-sufficient lifestyle. Off-grid living is also seen as a way to reduce dependence on external resources and to live a more sustainable and environmentally friendly lifestyle.

    Forget the Vet focuses on the many health benefits of practicing natural remedies. Cooking easy homemade holistic recipes, and treating your pet to a homeopathic agenda, may prevent many trips to your vet's office. 
    When we look holistically at all the natural cures for ailments in our pets, we ask ourselves, should we go all natural or use supplements that contain processed ingredients? There is no hard or fast rule to this. It is obvious that most products that come from natural sources have higher levels for benefiting our pets than others. The combination of processed substances and natural sources only arise due to the shortage of natural materials in certain locations. It is important to always use products that are as natural as possible. This saves the stress of getting your pets hooked on medications that may do them more harm than good. For instance, steroid injections used to treat asthma hold ingredients that may cause diabetes. The way you treat your pets and groom them, goes a long way in determining their overall health.

    In this centennial edition of the definitive book on the Titanic, new findings and interviews shed light on the world's most famous marine disaster for the 100th anniversary of the Titanic's sinking. 
    On that fatal night in 1912 the world's largest moving object disappeared beneath the waters of the North Atlantic in less than three hours. Why was the ship sailing through waters well known to be a "mass of floating ice"? Why were there too few lifeboats? Why were a third of the survivors crew members? Based on the sensational evidence of the U.S. Senate hearings, eyewitness accounts, and the results of the 1985 Woods Hole expedition that photographed the ship, this electrifying account vividly re-creates the vessel's last desperate hours afloat and fully addresses the questions that have continued to haunt the tragedy of the Titanic.
