The Vikings of Loch Morar by William D. Burt Pdf

Jonathan Oliver is chasing down an intruder on Iron Mountain in Lake Oswego when an unknown foe traps him inside a cave yielding clues to Oregon’s distant past. He and his grandfather present his finds to a university expert, who pronounces them to be genuine. Then Jon and his father stumble upon a remarkable spinoff from their anti-gravity inventions, a discovery that nearly costs Jon his life. Together, they incorporate this breakthrough into a revolutionary submersible design. At the invitation of Dr. Graham MacKenzie, the Gyrosensors team travels to one of Scotland’s wildest and remotest regions—and its deepest lake—to test their secret prototype. While staying at Dr. MacKenzie’s retreat center, they meet a pretty but mysterious Frenchwoman going under an assumed name. Across the loch, the crusty, reclusive caretaker of a Victorian-era hunting lodge is hiding staggering secrets of his own. During the prototype's construction and sea trials, Jon and his family confront enemies on land, in the air and under the water. In the end, Jon rekindles a love from the ashes of his youth and uncovers an ancient, holy treasure-hoard. Illustrated by Becky Miller.

Celtic Places & Placenames by John Moss Pdf

‘Celtic Places’ are typified by some several hundred townships and villages whose names still bear the imprint of their earliest Celtic roots, but the scope of the book is not restricted to human settlements; it is also true of the many mountains and rivers that they named, and to several thousand sites of standing stone monuments, Celtic high crosses, henges, hill figures, funeral barrows and hillforts, which are all included in the book. What they all have in common is that they reflect the rich cultural heritage that was implicit in the names of places in the British Isles and Ireland as it existed before the Romans arrived.

The Lake Lights by William D. Burt Pdf

What are the mysterious lights flitting above Oswego Lake on moonlit nights? Marsh gas? Ball lightning? Or holdovers from the dawn of Creation? When Jonathan Oliver makes it his homeschool project to track down the source of the Lake Lights, his search leads him to Iron Mountain and the abandoned Prosser mine with its prehistoric secrets. After his brilliant father, Matthew Oliver, goes missing, Jon is left to decode a cryptic message leading to a remarkable invention. With the help of his grandfather, Jon tries to outwit an unscrupulous scientist who will stop at nothing to steal the device and sell it to a shadowy criminal organization. His dual discoveries not only help Jon to deliver his city from total annihilation but also ultimately rock the scientific world to its foundations. The Lake Lights is the first title in the new Creation Seekers series. Illustrated by Becky Miller.

The Enigma of Loch Ness by Henry H. Bauer Pdf

Like UFO's, Big Foot, and the Bermuda Triangle, the Loch Ness monster continues to fascinate us by the persistence of its mystery. While many authors have focused upon the search for Nessie, Bauer is the first to present a detailed and balanced look at the history of the controversy surrounding this search. Bauer is much more concerned with examining the sociological, psychological, and philosophical aspects of the Loch Ness controversy than with proving or disproving Nessie's existence. He shows that the Nessie phenomenon has much to tell us about how we acquire our beliefs, about the nature of the scientific enterprise, and about the adversarial relationship between mainstream science and "fringe" subjects, such as Nessie. The result of more than a decade of research, Bauer's study includes both famous and little known photos and illustrations, the most complete bibliography yet compiled on the subject, and a list of close to 800 reported sightings. Whether you believe in Nessie or laugh at the mere thought of believing, you'll find The Enigma of Loch Ness both entertaining and enlightening.

Rogue of the Moors by Cynthia Breeding Pdf

Bridget MacLeod needs some space from her well-intentioned but overbearing family who’ve been crowding around her since her husband’s death. How can she keep her late husband’s secret and explain to them that her arranged marriage was pleasant but passionless, that she lost a friend but not a lover. Seeking a change of scenery, she arrives in Arisaig only to find she has no place to stay, unless she accepts the offer from a family friend. Alasdair MacDonald remembers Bridget well from when she stitched a wound in his leg last spring. Her touch was light and gentle, but she was a married woman. She may not be married now, but her husband’s passing is too recent for the honorable Alasdair to do more than invite her to stay with his boisterous family. But someone notices the way Alasdair looks at Bridget, someone who will stop at nothing to make Alasdair her own.
