Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt/Synopsis: A warm, sunny, beautiful Sunday, July 2, 2017, morning departure from our home and loving dog, Cody, and the scenic hills of southwestern Pennsylvania in Somerset County placed us on a collision course with the imminent sixty-second farewell on Reception Day, July 3, 2017, at West Point for our Class of 2021 son—Nate. The Adventures of Cadet Cody story comes to life in the summer weeks of July and August 2017 during the exchange of letters to our soon-to-be Plebe. Heartfelt and separated by time and distance, we revert to the antiquated pastime of writing letters, pen and paper in hand. Our imagination, Cody’s antics, our family experiences, and activities come to life in a cartoon, storylike fashion.

Summary Book and excerpt The Last of NASA's Original Pilot Astronauts :
Download or Read book The Last of NASA's Original Pilot Astronauts written by David J. Shayler and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-19 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt/Synopsis: Resulting from the authors’ deep research into these two pre-Shuttle astronaut groups, many intriguing and untold stories behind the selection process are revealed in the book. The often extraordinary backgrounds and personal ambitions of these skilled pilots, chosen to continue NASA’s exploration and knowledge of the space frontier, are also examined. In April 1966 NASA selected 19 pilot astronauts whose training was specifically targeted to the Apollo lunar landing missions and the Earth-orbiting Skylab space station. Three years later, following the sudden cancellation of the USAF’s highly classified Manned Orbiting Laboratory (MOL) project, seven military astronauts were also co-opted into NASA’s space program. This book represents the final chapter by the authors in the story of American astronaut selections prior to the era of the Space Shuttle. Through personal interviews and original NASA documentation, readers will also gain a true insight into a remarkable age of space travel as it unfolded in the late 1960s, and the men who flew those historic missions.

Summary Book and excerpt Afrocentricity and the Academy :
Download or Read book Afrocentricity and the Academy written by James L. Conyers, Jr. and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt/Synopsis: Afrocentricity is a philosophical and theoretical perspective that emphasizes the study of Africans as subjects, not as objects, and is opposed to perspectives that attempt to marginalize African thought and experience. Afrocentricity became popular in the l980s as scores of African American and African scholars adopted an Afrocentric orientation to information. The editor of this collection argues that as scholars embark upon the 21st century, they can no longer be myopic in their perceptions and analyses of race. The seventeen essays examine a wide range of variations on the Afrocentric paradigm in the areas of history, literature, political science, philosophy, economics, women’s studies, cultural studies, ethnic studies and social policy. The essays, written by professors, librarians, students and others in higher education who have embraced the Afrocentric perspective, are divided into four sections: “Pedagogy and Implementation,” “Theoretical Assessment,” “Critical Analysis,” and “Pan Africanist Thought.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt/Synopsis: From the John W. Campbell Award–winning author: The final four novels chronicling the military science fiction adventures of Nicholas Seafort. In a “splendid homage to the grand tradition of the old seafarer’s tale,” the Seafort Saga tells the story of an intergalactic captain’s journey through the galaxy (Roger MacBride Allen). Fisherman’s Hope: After he saved the Hope Nation colony from alien attack, Nick Seafort returned to Earth expecting a court martial, but instead his exploits have earned him a dignified position as an instructor at the United Nations Naval Academy. But when the fishlike aliens mount an attack, it’s up to Seafort to teach them a lesson. “Feintuch has constructed a fascinating story . . . highly entertaining.” —Science Fiction Chronicle Voices of Hope: Everyone knows Nick Seafort as “the Fisherman”—the hero who stopped the merciless, fishlike aliens when they attacked Earth. Decades have passed and he’s retired as the secretary general of the United Nations. But when his son, Philip, encounters the transpop culture—desperate people who live in the dangerous lower levels of New York City in a powder keg situation ready to blow—Seafort must save him. “This is the finest action tale in the series to date.” —Booklist Patriarch’s Hope: The Transpop Rebellion ended ten years ago with now–Secretary General Nicholas Seafort as a hero. But now an explosive disaster forces Nick to reexamine his life, his family, and his future as adversaries align against him. To save the planet from itself, he will need cunning, allies, and a large helping of luck. “Top-notch sci-fi political intrigue with a strong military flavor.” —Library Journal Children of Hope: Nicholas Seafort is the hero who saved the planet of Hope Nation from civil war and the fishlike aliens. But Randy Carr, son of Seafort’s old friend Derek, blames him for his father’s death. As a religious group called the Patriarchs fight to gain political control of Earth, and the aliens suddenly reappear, claiming they have peaceful intentions, Randy and Seafort become unlikely allies in a final fight for the planet’s future. “Amid the nonstop action, Feintuch skillfully pushes all the emotional buttons.” —Publishers Weekly

Summary Book and excerpt William Edmondson "Grumble" Jones :
Download or Read book William Edmondson "Grumble" Jones written by James Buchanan Ballard and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2017-11-10 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt/Synopsis: William Edmondson "Grumble" Jones (b. 1824) stands among the most notable Southwest Virginians to fight in the Civil War. The Washington County native graduated from Emory & Henry College and West Point. As a lieutenant in the "Old Army" between service in Oregon and Texas, he watched helplessly as his wife drowned during the wreck of the steamship Independence. He resigned his commission in 1857. Resuming his military career as a Confederate officer, he mentored the legendary John Singleton Mosby. His many battles included a clash with George Armstrong Custer near Gettysburg. An internal dispute with his commanding general, J.E.B. Stuart, resulted in Jones's court-martial conviction in 1863. Following a series of campaigns in East Tennessee and Southwest Virginia, he returned to the Shenandoah Valley and died in battle in 1864, leaving a mixed legacy.

Book excerpt/Synopsis: Capturing the hearts of a beleaguered nation, the fighter pilots of World War II engaged in a kind of battle that became the stuff of legend. They cut through the sky in their P-38s to go one-on-one against the enemy—and those who survived the deadly showdowns with enough courage and skill earned the right to be called aces. But two men in particular rose to become something more. They became icons of aerial combat, in a heroic rivalry that inspired a weary nation to fight on. Richard “Dick” Bong was the bashful, pink-faced farm boy from the Midwest. Thomas “Tommy” McGuire was the wise-cracking, fast-talking kid from New Jersey. What they shared was an unparalleled gallantry under fire which won them both the Medal of Honor—and remains the subject of hushed and reverent conversation wherever aerial warfare is admired. What they had between them was a closely watched rivalry to see who would emerge as the top-scoring American ace of the war. What they left behind is a legacy of pride we will never forget, and a record of aerial victories that has yet to be surpassed anywhere in the world.

Book excerpt/Synopsis: In the early years of the 21st century humanity has advanced step by slow step into space, but has discovered through constant monitoring of the heavens that certain asteroids have changed their orbits and are headed for horrifying impact with Earth.
