CLOSE to the verge of the immense desert which stretches its arid wastes across the whole breadth of the continent to the shore of the Western Ocean, just at the apex of the famous delta which marks the meeting point of Upper and Lower Egypt, at the very spot where the busy life of the earliest civilization on record was bordered by the vast and barren solitude, stands the most majestic and most mysterious monument ever erected by the hand of man. Of all the other structures which made the marvels of the ancient world, scarcely a vestige is left.
In his second voyage, Columbus heard vague rumors of a mainland westward from Jamaica and Cuba, at a distance of ten days' journey in a canoe. Its inhabitants were said to be clothed, and the specimens of wax which were found among the Cubans must have been brought from there, as they themselves did not know how to prepare it.
We have nothing to fear. The 'dragon' has already been slain on the inner planes, but, like all beings of the lizard family, it still has the propensity to flail its tail around to do as much damage as possible before it takes its last breath. I believe its breath is already becoming shallow and divine intervention is standing by."
An ingenious student of science once entertained his generation with a theory of how one might behold again all the stirring chapters that make up the story of the earth. The living scene of our time is lit by the light of the sun, and for every few rays that enter the human eye, and convey the image of it to the human mind, great floods of the reflected light pour out, swiftly and indefinitely, into space. Imagine, then, a man moving out into space more rapidly than light, his face turned toward the earth.
Here are strange and unexplainable legions of the "Wee People," the Dero, and long-haired Atlantean giants as encountered by cave explorers and miners trapped far beneath the earth.
Is evolution buried in our unconscious memory? Samuel Butler was a genius of his times and his studies into evolution were easier to understand for most people than those of Darwin.

Nearly six tenths of the earth's land surface receive an annual rainfall of less than twenty inches, and can be reclaimed for agricultural purposes only by irrigation and dry-farming. A perfected world-system of irrigation will convert about one tenth of this vast area into an incomparably fruitful garden, leaving about one half of the earth's land surface to be reclaimed, if at all, by the methods of dry-farming.

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
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.
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.
For those enthusiasts that really want to reduce their carbon footprint, compressor-less ammonia air conditioning may be the key. Ice making houses existed BEFORE electricity and electric refrigerators. These old reprints give the practical applications that make it work.
