The Volcanic Valve by W. L. Alden - When a brilliant inventor tries to control volcanic eruptions with a mechanical valve, his bold experiment threatens to unleash fiery chaos on an unsuspecting world. W. L. Alden (1837–1908) was an American writer, humorist, and journalist best known for his early contributions to science fiction and speculative literature. Born in New York, Alden studied law and became a practicing attorney before turning to writing. He served as a journalist and editor for several newspapers, including the New York Times and Harper’s Weekly, and was appointed U.S. Consul in Rome in the 1880s. Alden’s fiction often blended satire, gentle absurdity, and imaginative speculation, marking him as a forerunner of American science fiction humor. He contributed to The Idler, The Strand Magazine, and Puck, among others. His best-known speculative works include “A New Form of Government” and the collection Among the Freaks (1896), which showcased his flair for whimsical inventions and improbable scenarios. Though less known today, Alden was part of a literary movement that helped shape early science fiction, particularly with stories involving quirky inventions, mechanical men, and undersea adventures. His writing reflects a playful curiosity about technology and society that resonates with fans of classic speculative fiction.Ver libro

'We've done more than our share to see you right, but you're a Hershey, a true son of a dreamer,' Milton's Uncle Abraham said. 'You'll never stick with anything long enough to make it work for you.' Milton gulped. He'd already suspected that his relatives had given up on him succeeding as a candy maker, but the words still stung. When Milton Hershey's famous Hershey Bars debuted in 1905, few people knew of the hard work, dedication, and sacrifice preceding the triumph. Debt, lack of support, and fatigue had been constant companions for the famous chocolatier and philanthropist -- a man with a fourth-grade education. Despite comparisons to his wandering father, Milton never gave up. Learning from his mistakes, he spent a lifetime creating sweet things to eat -- first caramel, then chocolate. As his company soared, Milton used his wealth to care for others, founding a town for Hershey workers, a school for children in need, and a foundation dedicated to education, culture, and health care.Ver libro
