This carefully crafted ebook: "The Science of Being Well: Health from a New Thought Perspective (Classic Unabridged Edition)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents.The Science of Being Well is the second volume of a series known as "The Science of" trilogy or "Financial Success Through Creative Thought" by Wallace Delois Wattles. While the first volume, The Science of Getting Rich, is intended for those who are looking to acquire wealth and money, this one is not a philosophical treatise, but a practical guide and handbook for those whose main goal is health.Wallace Delois Wattles (1860-1911) was an American author. As a New Thought writer, he remains personally somewhat obscure, but his writing has been widely quoted and remains in print in the New Thought and self-help movements. Wattles often travelled to Chicago, where he gave "Sunday night lectures" among several leading New Thought authors. He studied the writings of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel and Ralph Waldo Emerson and recommended the study of their books to his readers who wished to understand what he characterized as "the monistic theory of the cosmos." Wattles'' best known work is a 1910 book called The Science of Getting Rich in which he explained how to become wealthy.

This carefully crafted ebook: "John Muir: The Story of My Boyhood and Youth & Letters to a Friend (Autobiography With Original Drawings)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents.The Story of My Boyhood and Youthreveals the beginnings of the forming of Muir''s special relation towards nature. He considered the encounters with nature as quite an adventure and at first, paid special attention to bird life. John Muir understood that to discover truth, he must turn to what he believed were the most accurate sources. In his autobiographical account, The Story of My Boyhood and Youth, he writes that during his childhood, his father made him read the Bible every day. Muir eventually memorized three-quarters of the Old Testament and all of the New Testament. In his autobiography, written near the end of his life, he described his life from childhood years in Scotland and moving to America to student years in Wisconsin. When he was a student in the University of Wisconsin he was a frequent caller at the house of Dr. Ezra S. Carr. The kindness shown him there, and especially the sympathy which Mrs. Carr, as a botanist and a lover of nature, felt in the young manes interests and aims, led to the formation of a lasting friendship. He regarded Mrs. Carr, indeed, as his "spiritual mother," and his letters to her in later years are the outpourings of a sensitive spirit to one who he felt thoroughly understood and sympathized with him.John Muir (1838-1914) was a Scottish-American naturalist, author, environmental philosopher and early advocate of preservation of wilderness in the United States. His letters, essays, and books telling of his adventures in nature, especially in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California, have been read by millions. His activism helped to preserve the Yosemite Valley, Sequoia National Park and other wilderness areas. The Sierra Club, which he founded, is a prominent American conservation organization.

This carefully crafted ebook: "STEEP TRAILS: California - Utah - Nevada - Washington - Oregon - The Grand Canyon" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents.Editor''s Introduction:"The papers brought together in this volume have, in a general way, been arranged in chronological sequence. They span a period of twenty-nine years of Muir''s life, during which they appeared as letters and articles, for the most part in publications of limited and local circulation. Some of these papers were revised by the author during the later years of his life, and these revisions are a part of the form in which they now appear. The recital of his experiences during a stormy night on the summit of Mount Shasta will take rank among the most thrilling of his records of adventure. His observations on the dead towns of Nevada, and on the Indians gathering their harvest of pine nuts, recall a phase of Western life that has left few traces in American literature. Many, too, will read with pensive interest the author''s glowing description of what was one time called the New Northwest."John Muir (1838-1914) was a Scottish-American naturalist, author, environmental philosopher and early advocate of preservation of wilderness in the United States. His letters, essays, and books telling of his adventures in nature, especially in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California, have been read by millions.

This carefully crafted ebook: "THE OLD BRITISH TALES OF THE BUSH – 5 Intriguing Books of Australia (Illustrated)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents.Australian outback had always fascinated the British colonial imagination when rags to riches stories of the British convicts and other social outcasts transformed the image of Australia as a gold digger''s paradise (remember Abel Magwitch''s story in Charles Dicken''s Great Expectations?). This interaction which proved deadly for the aboriginal culture and population of Australia also impacted the British literature in a way that it had stories to tell of its incomprehensible wilderness and its inhabitants. This edition brings you an assorted collection of stories about the Australian outback and its people from the pen of a renowned British author – E. W. Hornung. Hornung had also lived and travelled in Australia for two years and unlike his contemporaries wrote a lot of stories with Australia in the background.E. W. Hornung (1866–1921) was an English author and poet and also brother-in-law to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Hornung is known for writing the A. J. Raffles series about a gentleman thief based on a deliberate inversion of the Sherlock Holmes series. Hornung dedicated his creation as a form of flattery to Doyle. Hornung''s works are also remembered for giving insight into the social mores of late 19th and early 20th century British society.

This carefully crafted ebook: "A. J. Raffles, A Gentleman-Thief: 27 Crime Tales in One Volume" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents.A. J. Raffles is an ''amateur cracksman'' and a gentleman-thief who with his wit and ingenuity befools everyone to get what he wants. Raffles is an antihero. Although a thief, he never steals from his hosts, he helps old friends in trouble, and in a subsequent volume he may or may not die on the veldt during the Boer War. Additionally, the recognition of the problems of the distribution of wealth is a recurrent subtext throughout the stories. Raffles is, in many ways, a deliberate inversion of Sherlock Holmes on which he is based – he is a "gentleman thief", living at the Albany, a prestigious address in London, playing cricket for the Gentlemen of England and supporting himself by carrying out ingenious burglaries. He is called the "Amateur Cracksman", and often, at first, differentiates between himself and the "professors" – professional criminals from the lower classes.Content:The Amateur CracksmanThe Ides of MarchA Costume PieceGentlemen and PlayersLe Premier PasWilful MurderNine Points of the LawThe Return MatchThe Gift of the EmperorThe Black Mask; or, Raffles: Further AdventuresNo SinecureA Jubilee PresentThe Fate of FaustinaThe Last LaughTo Catch a ThiefAn Old FlameThe Wrong HouseThe Knees of the GodsA Thief in the NightOut of ParadiseThe Chest of SilverThe Rest CureThe Criminologists'' ClubThe Field of PhilippiA Bad NightA Trap to Catch a CracksmanThe Spoils of SacrilegeThe Raffles RelicsThe Last WordMr. Justice RafflesE.
