Sailing the Golden Sea

Paul and Emily Keller met late in life on the ski slopes in the Pacific Northwest. Both in their senior years, they married, sharing a love for new challenges and reaching for the next horizon. Their story continues in their second book as they set sail on an adventure circumnavigating the Eastern United States. 
Sailing the Inland Seas chronicles the further adventures of these two "sunset sailors" capturing the vivid tales of Paul and Emily. On their motor sailor, Elizabeth M, they sailed from Florida to the Chesapeake and Delaware Bays, to the Gulf of Mexico through the Erie Canal, Great Lakes, Chicago and many great river systems including the Tennessee and Tombigbee. 
A launching from Cape Canaveral, a personal encounter with a gentle manatee, Hurricane Hugo, a 4th of July celebration with rocket scientists and colorful encounters with tugboat captains are all described in a lighthearted spirit in the pages of Sailing the Inland Seas. 
As they sailed, Paul wrote and Emily sketched...and they both loved the stimulating challenges of living in small quarters, storms, equipment malfunctions, and the joys of people, breathtaking scenery and...the next horizon. 
Travel with Paul and Emily...share their experiences...meet the people they encountered...and learned what they discovered for themselves. 
You're never too old to take up new challenges!

Ferien vom Ich: Roman

As outspoken in his day as Richard Dawkins or Christopher Hitchens are today, American freethinker and author ROBERT GREEN INGERSOLL (1833-1899) was a notorious radical whose uncompromising views on religion and slavery (they were bad, in his opinion), women's suffrage (a good idea, he believed), and other contentious matters of his era made him a wildly popular orator and critic of 19th-century American culture and public life. As a speaker dedicated to expanding intellectual horizons and celebrating the value of skepticism, Ingersoll spoke frequently on such topics as atheism, freedom from the pressures of conformity, and the lives of philosophers who espoused such concepts. This collection of his most famous speeches includes the lectures: [ "The Gods" (1872) [ "Humboldt" (1869) [ "Thomas Paine" (1870) [ "Individuality" (1873) [ "Heretics and Heresies" (1874)
