Book excerpt: NEW PRINT WITH PROFESSIONAL TYPE-SET IN CONTRAST TO SCANNED PRINTS OFFERED BY OTHERS The Coming Ice Age This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!

Book excerpt: Only in the last decade have climatologists developed an accurate picture of yearly climate conditions in historical times. This development confirmed a long-standing suspicion: that the world endured a 500-year cold snap -- The Little Ice Age -- that lasted roughly from A.D. 1300 until 1850. The Little Ice Age tells the story of the turbulent, unpredictable and often very cold years of modern European history, how climate altered historical events, and what they mean in the context of today's global warming. With its basis in cutting-edge science, The Little Ice Age offers a new perspective on familiar events. Renowned archaeologist Brian Fagan shows how the increasing cold affected Norse exploration; how changing sea temperatures caused English and Basque fishermen to follow vast shoals of cod all the way to the New World; how a generations-long subsistence crisis in France contributed to social disintegration and ultimately revolution; and how English efforts to improve farm productivity in the face of a deteriorating climate helped pave the way for the Industrial Revolution and hence for global warming. This is a fascinating, original book for anyone interested in history, climate, or the new subject of how they interact.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cause of the Ice Age and of Geological Climates Before entering further into this discussion, it may not be out of place to briefly review the principal theories advanced to account for the Ice Age. It will be seen that physicists and astronomers have vied with geologists in the diligence of this search for the cause of this age, and their minds have been as fertile in the number of causes assigned as the true one. Not one of all the causes suggested has been sustained by argument without a flaw in the reasoning, and no demonstration has been made which has carried conviction to the scientific world. It would not be instructive to attempt to review all of the theories which have been urged The leading ones only will be briefly mentioned.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Man in the Ice Age at Lansing, Kansas, and Little Falls, Minnesota The coarse debris in the lower part of the tunnel contained, so far as we could observe, no 'glacial drift pebbles or'sto-nes of foreign origin, though they are frequent in the thin gla cial drift which overlies the rock surfaces near. Many of these drift 'stones and boulders are of the red Sioux quartzite, which outcrops 300 to 350 miles northward, in southwestern Minnesota, the, northwest corner of Iowa, and the southeast part of South Dakota. It occurs in this Kansan drift mostly in small fragments, but often one to two' feet in diameter, and occasionally even measuring five feet, or more, and weighing several tons., The southern boundary of the glacial drift, marking the limit of the continental ice-sheet/in its extreme extension during the Kansan stage of the Glacial period, is at\ a line passing from east to west, as mapped by Chainberlin and mcgee, about 12 or] 15 miles southpof the Kansas (com mouly called the Kaw) river, and 25 'or 30 miles south of Lan sing.'i' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
