Buried Alive by Arnold Bennett Pdf

Excerpt from Buried Alive: A Tale of These Days Go inside, and breathe its atmosphere of a bored house that is generally empty yet never untenanted. All its twelve rooms dark and forlorn, save two; its cellar kitchen dark and forlorn; just these two rooms, one on the top of the other like boxes, pitifully struggling against the inveterate gloom of the remaining ten! Stand in the dark hall and get this atmosphere into your lungs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Buried Alive by Roy Hallums Pdf

A “vivid, absorbing, and chilling” true-life account of surviving nearly a year of captivity in Iraq (Lesley Stahl, 60 Minutes correspondent). AK47s, masked thugs, and brutal urgency erupt from Roy Hallums’ account of his abduction in Iraq, shredding through those frequently sterile cable news reports revealing that another American contractor is being held hostage. Hallums was the everyman behind that report—a fifty-six-year-old retired Naval commander working as a food supply contractor in Baghdad’s high-end Mansour District. His abduction was transacted in a matter of minutes, amidst a hail of gunfire and a handful of casualties. For the first few months of his captivity, Hallums endured beatings and psychological torture while being shuffled from one ramshackle safe house to another. From the four-foot-tall crawlspace where he carried out the bulk of his nearly year-long abduction, Hallums established a surprising degree of normalcy—a system of routines and timekeeping, along with an attention to the particulars that defined his horrific ordeal. His experience is recreated here, rich with harrowing specifics and surprising observations.

Buried Alive by Arnold Bennett Pdf

The peculiar angle of the earth's axis to the plane of the ecliptic--that angle whichis chiefly responsible for our geography and therefore for our history--had causedthe phenomenon known in London as summer. The whizzing globe happened tohave turned its most civilized face away from the sun, thus producing night inSelwood Terrace, South Kensington. In No. 91 Selwood Terrace two lights, on theground-floor and on the first-floor, were silently proving that man's ingenuity canoutwit nature's. No. 91 was one of about ten thousand similar houses betweenSouth Kensington Station and North End Road. With its grimy stucco front, itscellar kitchen, its hundred stairs and steps, its perfect inconvenience, and itsconscience heavy with the doing to death of sundry general servants, it uplifted tinchimney-cowls to heaven and gloomily awaited the day of judgment for Londonhouses, sublimely ignoring the axial and orbital velocities of the earth and even thereckless flight of the whole solar system through space. You felt that No. 91 wasunhappy, and that it could only be rendered happy by a 'To let' standard in its frontpatch and a 'No bottles' card in its cellar-windows. It possessed neither of thesespecifics. Though of late generally empty, it was never untenanted. In the entirecourse of its genteel and commodious career it had never once been to let.
