Songs of the Alps (Classic Reprint) by Louise Nellis Foster Pdf

Excerpt from Songs of the Alps A Memory There dwells in my heart Full many a song, That sings to my soul When the days are long.

A dream of glory Ever dwells with me, Bringing visions so bright, Wherein I can see The golden glow Of deeds sublime, - Love laurel crowned, Throughout all time.

The Alps (Classic Reprint) by Arnold Lunn Pdf

Excerpt from The Alps For the early chapters of this book I have consulted, amongst other authorities, the books mentioned in the bibliography on pp. 251- 254. It would, however, be ungracious if I failed to acknowledge my indebtedness to that most readable of historians, Mr. Gribble, and to his books, The Early Mountaineers (Fisher Unwin) and The Story of Alpine Climbing (Nelson). Mr. Gribble and his publisher, Mr. Unwin, have kindly allowed me to quote passages translated from the works of the pioneers. Two friends, experts in the practice and history of mountaineering, have read the proofs and helped me with numerous suggestions.

Here and There Among the Alps (Classic Reprint) by Frederica Plunket Pdf

Excerpt from Here and There Among the Alps These sensational and highly exciting works have, however, one great disadvantage, they check the energies and chill the aspirations of moderate walkers. To 'ladies they are particularly discouraging. How are they to attempt the ascent of the horns or dents, or pointes or spitzes of which they read and hear, if they are beset with such dangers and difficulties? How are they to clamber up precipices, where at each step the treacherous rocks may break beneath their feet '9 How are they to walk on the knife-like edges of snow ridges, where a single false step would be destruction, or to descend the steep ice-s10pe, where a slip is fatal? They feel that to attempt such performances would be absolute madness, risk ing other lives as well as their own, and they lay aside the fascinating volume with a sigh, and regret fully confess that the high Alps are beyond their powers, and that they must content themselves with small expeditions, and mule paths at moderate ele vations.

The Alps From End to End by William Martin Conway Pdf

Excerpt from The Alps From End to End: With 52 Full-Paged Illustrations Previously mountaineering was one Of the best forms of training for a traveller, and indeed supplied, for busy persons whose annual holiday must be Short, experi ence Of all the Charms, excitements, and delights which reward the explorer Of distant and unknown regions Of the earth. The Object of the journey now to be described was to discover whether the time had not come when a return might be made to the habits Of Alpine pioneers. Of course the mystery is gone from the Alps, how completely none but climbers know. Almost every mountain and point of View of even third-rate importance has been ascended, most by many routes. Almost every gap between two peaks has been traversed as a pass. The publications of some dozen mountaineer ing societies have recorded these countless expeditions in rows Of volumes Of appalling length. Of late years vigorous attempts have been made to co-ordinate this mass Of material in the form Of Climbers' Guides, dealing with particular districts, wherein every peak and pass is dealt with in strict geographical succession and every different route and all the variations Of each route are set forth, with references to the volumes in which they have been described at length by their discoverers. Nearly half the Alps has been treated in this manner, but the work has taken fourteen years, and of course the whole requires periodic revision.

Redemption Song by Chris Salewicz Pdf

With exclusive access to Strummer's friends, relatives, and fellow musicians, music journalist Chris Salewicz penetrates the soul of an rock 'n roll icon. The Clash was--and still is--one of the most important groups of the late 1970s and early 1980s. Indebted to rockabilly, reggae, Memphis soul, cowboy justice, and '60s protest, the overtly political band railed against war, racism, and a dead-end economy, and in the process imparted a conscience to punk. Their eponymous first record and London Calling still rank in Rolling Stone's top-ten best albums of all time, and in 2003 they were officially inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Joe Strummer was the Clash's front man, a rock-and-roll hero seen by many as the personification of outlaw integrity and street cool. The political heart of the Clash, Strummer synthesized gritty toughness and poetic sensitivity in a manner that still resonates with listeners, and his untimely death in December 2002 shook the world, further solidifying his iconic status. Salewicz was a friend to Strummer for close to three decades and has covered the Clash's career and the entire punk movement from its inception. He uses his vantage point to write Redemption Song, the definitive biography of Strummer, charting his enormous worldwide success, his bleak years in the wilderness after the Clash's bitter breakup, and his triumphant return to stardom at the end of his life. Salewicz argues for Strummer's place in a long line of protest singers that includes Woody Guthrie, John Lennon, and Bob Marley, and examines by turns Strummer's and punk's ongoing cultural influence.
