Описание:
Constructed in several phases over a period of some 1500 years, beginning in 3000 BC, Stonehenge's key elements are its "bluestones," transported from West Wales by unexplained means, and its sarsen stones quarried from the nearby Marlborough Downs.

Francis Pryor delivers a rigorous account of the nature and history of Stonehenge, but also places the enigmatic monument in a wider cultural context, bringing acute insight into how antiquarians, scholars, writers, artists-and even neopagans--have interpreted the mystery over the centuries.

Описание: There are more mind-boggling tales in this book than a reader would normally find in three books, and each of them makes absorbing reading.Charles Lindberg was an American hero that captured the public's worship, but he also had his down side. He fathered three illegitimate children addition to the six he fathered with his wife, Anne.We think the reader will be fascinated with the story of recluse Howard Hughes one of the richest but most unhappy men of his century.We tell you about the invention of the stethoscope, the vibrator which was used to cure "hysteria" in women, and how Christopher Columbus fooled the natives.If every reader doesn't learn something new by reading this book, he is indeed a genius himself.

Описание: John Sutter, who left Switzerland to escape debtor's prison, came to California and built a giant land monopoly. Again, he became heavily in debt and died destitute.The entire Sacramento and San Joaquin valleys were inundated for 300 miles long and 20 miles wide by the flood of 1862. The cholera epidemic killed more than 1,000 citizens, including doctors and others who were caring for the patients. The Old City Cemetery is an exciting place. As docents are quick to remind, "People are dying to get in here." The docents know their job. It's almost as though they are trying to bring the city's cemeteries back to life. We love the epitaph on one headstone that simply reads: "See ya later".

It was the women, who showed their strengths against formidable odds they faced in the trek to the gold fields.It was Jenny Wimmer who determined if that gold nugget James Marshall found was true gold or not. She did it by cooking it in the kettle of lye soap she was making.
