Music soothes the soul of the savage beast... and it heals too.
Written in 1922, the author predicted the supply and costs of gas and other petroleum products was not to be infinite. He advocated and taught that we should be using alcohol to preserve and have substitutes available. Great reference work for those considering making their own alcohol based fuels.
Detailed information in the use and application of polyphase currents. Valuable information to be able understand these laws of science in the event of a disaster.
Excellent book and reference for those considering developing the compressor-less air conditioning and refrigeration used in the days before electricity was available throughout the nation.
THIS volume is not written to entertain those who read for amusement, but to establish and prove, so far as proof can he established and proved, a half-score or more of mighty truths hitherto not comprehended.
The History of the Efforts to Attain a Self-Motive Mechanism : Perpetual energy: Inventors, scientist, tinkerers have for generations attempted to conquer the laws of physics.. the law of diminishing returns.. seeking the utopian energy device so needed by mankind and his civilizations. Someday, perhaps one just might?
The catastrophe of the Medusa is already known to the public, as one of the most awful and appalling that ever befel any class of human beings. The Shipwreck, and the dreadful scenes on the Raft, have been recorded in the Narrative of Messrs Savigny and Correard. But the adventures of the party who were cast ashore, and forced to find their way through the African Desert, could be reported only imperfectly by those gentlemen who were not eye-witnesses.
The high prices which coal and wood have commanded for several years back have directed attention to peat fuel; and, such is the adventurous character of American enterprise, it cannot be doubted that we shall rapidly develop and improve the machinery for producing it.
This little work has been prepared mainly for those who have no practical acquaintance with the cultivation of the Peanut. Its directions, therefore, are intended for the beginner, and are such as will enable any intelligent person who has followed farming, to raise good crops of Peanuts, although he may have never before seen the growing plant.
This relatively new theory challenges the mainstream idea that the mankind (and/or the caucasion, aryan, white races) originated in the Mesopotamian Valley. There are indeed many evidences, facts and ancient writings that originate mankind's beginnings from the two Arctic regions. This book takes us one step farther... Eden was at the North Pole?! Sounds crazy, but such ideas are also embedded in ancient Jewish writings.
Even the most diehard believer in the notion that UFOs are interplanetary spacecraft and nothing else will have to admit that by now the odds are stacked against this theory. For more than fifty years, since the dawn of the modem era of "flying saucer" sightings, millions of strange, luminous "things" have been buzzing about as well as being chased and interacted with on all levels all over the globe.

This ignored scientific research was by one of India's political warriors, who dared to confront the British occupation and British destruction of his homeland. Based on independent research, astronomical facts, and from the Vedas themselves, Tilak proves that these precious manuscripts were written around or in excess of 6000 years ago. Oddly enough this lines up with biblical interpretation that mankind started 6000 years ago...and that the Great Pyramid of Egypt, too was established on a certain position of Orion.
This is one of the first, perhaps the only, published book on the strange finds and interpretations of the Ohio Mounds. With all the research into the archeology of Europe, Middle East, Egypt, South America, India, Asia, etc.. it makes one wonder why these North American anamolies are not fully analyzed and researched.
Though demonized in today's world, nitro-explosives help build industrial America. This book takes you through the methods and science behind this miracle discovery. Properties, Manufacture, and Analysis of Nitrated Substances
