Rural farms were not always on the 'grid' and this book shows several methods employed to produce the electricity needed for their homes and farms. These methods could again be used to furnish energy in the event of an emergency or disaster, or even to get off the electric company's swindle.
In times of recession, depression, or simply trying to save a few buck, many maintenance chores, such as plumbing, can be accomplished by the most inexperienced home owner, or the less than handy-man. All you need is a basic understanding of what the plumbing is trying to do, and the instructions on how you can repair it. This reprint is excellent at explaining the principles of plumbing.
Gypsies reading the ley lines that crisscross England; Taoist priests interpreting feng shui charts; Midwestern rainmakers dowsing the parched fields of the American prairie -- what do they all have in common? Each of these activities uses the world energy grid to advance health, knowledge and personal fortune.
Day by day it becomes more evident that not one of the many existing theories is adequate to the explanation of the known phenomena: but, in spite of this obvious fact, attempts are still constantly being made, even by most eminent men, to rule the results of experimental science into line with this or that accepted theory.
Rare scanned reprint of the original Author's Edition of this unusual book. The journey is to the inner earth, it's hollow, it's inhabited, it's unusual, it's hell, and it's a virtual wonderworld. If you never read Etidorpha, tis a story quite like no other. The author's edition was decorated more than the published edition.

WHILE preparing an account of MOUNT ETNA for the Encyclopaedia Britannica, I was surprised to find that there exists no single work in the English language devoted to the history of the most famous volcano in the world. I was consequently induced to considerably enlarge the Encyclopædia article, and the following pages are the result. The facts recorded have been collected from various sources-German, French, Italian, and English, and from my own observations made during the summer of 1877.
The author investigates the difference of theory between religion and science. Perhaps they are one and the same story?
TGS Survival Books Reprint: This small booklet contains advice for farming, that will benefit the home gardener, too. It's easy to say fertilize or rotate the crops, but few urbanites really know what this means or how to do it.
A good book to have in a survival library for either the urban or rural survivalist. Thousands of facts, tips, and useful information for everyday use or in times of survival.
The book is reprinted as an addition to the TGS Survival books. What better way to be prepared for disaster than with a garden and the knowledge of 'how to' garden. Further, with this book written in 1863, you learn 'how to' before the era of industrialization when modern tools were not yet invented.
On 6th July 1960 Lt Colonel Harold Ohlmeyer, a United States Airforce Commander, sent a reply to a letter from one Professor Charles Hapgood who had requested his opinion on a feature found on a map of 1513 AD called the Piri Reis Map. Lt Colonel Ohlmeyer's reply was a bombshell. The map, showing the coastline of the east coast of the Americas and the west coast of Africa, the Colonel remarked, also seemed to show the coastline of Queen Maud Land in Antarctica free of ice - a condition it had not been in for some 9000 years!
After 116 years, Edwin Abbott Abbott's Flatland is still the best introduction to the method of analogy used by virtually all mathematicians and physicists when describing the fourth dimension. In recent years there have been more than a dozen new editions in English, and translations into at least nine foreign languages.
In this little treatise I am presenting to all students of nature great things to observe and to consider. Great as much because of their intrinsic excellence as of their absolute novelty, and also on account of the instrument by the aid of which they have made themselves accessible to our senses.
Creating the Future is the name of a project which begins with the publication of this book. Actually, it has already begun, in the form of weekend dialogues with small groups of twenty people. The purpose of such dialogues is to plant seeds in the minds of those who already know they can invent new projects in the world.
