“What you don’t know would make a great book.” –Sydney Smith

Synopsis

A remarkable true story of courage and perseverance — and a wake-up call. December 2014: in the forbidding waters off Antarctica, Captain Hammarstedt of the Sea Shepherd ship Bob Barker embarks on a voyage unlike any seen before. Across ten thousand miles of hazardous seas, Hammerstedt’s crew will relentlessly pursue the Thunder — an infamous illegal fishing ship — for what will become the longest chase in maritime history. Wanted by Interpol, the Thunder has for years evaded justice: accumulating millions in profits, hunting endangered species, and ruthlessly destroying ocean habitats. The authors follow this incredible expedition from its very beginning. Yet even as seasoned journalists, they cannot anticipate what the chase will uncover, as the wake of the Thunder leads them to the trail of criminal kingpins, rampant corruption, modern slavery, and an international community content to turn a blind eye. Soon, catching Thunder becomes not only a chase but a pursuit of the truth itself and a symbolic race to preserve the well-being of our planet.

Collaborations in Architecture and Engineering focuses on team-building and problem-solving between architects and engineers to prepare you for working together in practice.

“A book should serve as the ax for the frozen sea within us.” -Franz Kafka

Synopsis

For over a century, summer camps have provided many American children's first experience of community beyond their immediate family and neighborhoods. Each summer, children experience the pain of homesickness, learn to swim, and sit around campfires at night. Children's Nature chronicles the history of the American summer camp, from its invention in the late nineteenth century through its rise in the first four decades of the twentieth century. Leslie Paris investigates how camps came to matter so greatly to so many Americans, while providing a window onto the experiences of the children who attended them and the aspirations of the adults who created them. Summer camps helped cement the notion of childhood as a time apart, at once protected and playful. Camp leaders promised that campers would be physically and morally invigorated by fresh mountain air, simple food, daily swimming, and group living, and thus better fit for the year to come. But camps were important as well because children delighted in them, helped to shape them, and felt transformed by them. Focusing primarily on the northeast, where camps were first founded and the industry grew most extensively, and drawing on a range of sources including camp films, amateur performances, brochures, oral histories, letters home, industry journals, camp newspapers, and scrapbooks, Children's Nature brings this special and emotionally resonant world to life.

“A book is a version of the world. If you do not like it, ignore it; or offer your own version in return.” –Salman Rushdie

Synopsis

Anson Northup, the first steamboat on the Canadian prairies, arrived in Fort Garry in 1859. Belching hot sparks and growling in fury, it was called |fire canoe| by the local Cree. The first steam-powered passenger vessel in Canada had begun service on the St. Lawrence River in 1809, and for the next 150 years, steamboats carried passengers and freight on great Canadian rivers, among them the treacherous Stikine and Fraser in British Columbia; the Saskatchewan and Red Rivers on the prairies; and the mighty St. Lawrence and Saguenay in Ontario and Quebec. Travel back in time aboard makeshift gold-rush riverboats on the Yukon, sternwheelers on the Saskatchewan and luxurious liners on the St. Lawrence to the decades when steamboats sent the echoes of whistles across a vast land of powerful rivers.

“The covers of this book are too far apart.” –Ambrose Bierce

Synopsis

The War of 1812 is typically noted for a handful of events: the burning of the White House, the rise of the Star Spangled Banner, and the battle of New Orleans. But in fact the greatest consequence of that distant conflict was the birth of the U.S. Navy. During the War of 1812, America’s tiny fleet took on the mightiest naval power on earth, besting the British in a string of victories that stunned both nations. In his new book, Ships of Oak and Guns of Iron: The War of 1812 and the Birth of the American Navy, author Dr. Ronald Utt not only sheds new light on the naval battles of the War of 1812 and how they gave birth to our nation’s great navy, but tells the story of the War of 1812 through the portraits of famous American war heroes. From the cunning Stephen Decatur to the fierce David Porter, Ships of Oak and Guns of Iron relates how thousands of American men and boys gave better than they got against the British Navy. The great age of fighting sail is as rich in heroic drama as any epoch. Dr. Utt’s Ships of Oak and Guns of Iron retrieves the American chapter of that epoch from unjustified obscurity, and offers readers an intriguing chronicle of the War of 1812 as well as a unique perspective on the birth of the U.S. Navy.

“Books support us in our solitude and keep us from being a burden to ourselves.” –Jeremy Collier

Synopsis

Featuring a foreword by Bob Metcalfe, inventor of Ethernet! Ethernet, the most widely-used local area networking technology in the world, is moving from the server rooms of automobile manufacturers to their vehicles. As the quantity and variety of electronic devices in cars continues to grow, Ethernet promises to improve performance and enable increasingly powerful and useful applications in vehicles. Now, from Intrepid Control Systems (www.intrepidcs.com) - a leader in the world of automotive networking and diagnostic tools - comes the first book to describe the technology behind the biggest revolution in automotive networking since the 1980s: Automotive Ethernet - The Definitive Guide describes the fundamentals of networking, data link and physical layers of industry-standard Ethernet variants, as well as the new (one twisted pair 100Base Ethernet) 1TPCE or BroadR-Reach technology developed by Broadcom specifically for vehicle use. Topics covered include: in-vehicle networking requirements, comparing Ethernet to CAN and other existing networks (such as LIN, MOST, and FlexRay), TCP/UDP, IPv4/IPv6 and Diagnostics over IP (DoIP). Also covered are the Audio Video Bridging standards used to transport media over Ethernet: Stream Reservation Protocol or SRP (802.1Qat), Forward-Queueing and Time-Sensitive Streams or FQTSS (802.1Qav), Timing and Synchronization for Time-Sensitive Applications or gPTP (802.1as), and Transport Protocol for Time-Sensitive Applications or AVTP (IEEE 1722), and more. Automotive Ethernet: The Definitive Guide will also be available as an ebook for your Kindle!
