【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Jowetts That Got Away【電子書籍】[ Noel Stokoe ]

＜p＞Jowett Cars were built in Bradford from 1906 to 1954. All pre-war cars up to 1935 were powered by a twin-cylinder horizontally-opposed 7-hp engine. In 1935, a new four-cylinder horizontally-opposed engine was introduced with a 10-hp rating running alongside the original twin-cylinder model, which had been increased to an 8-hp rating. Little changed during the pre-war period; many of the models were made in very small numbers, and sadly, there are no survivors today.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The Jowett brothers experimented in the mid-1930s with a new inline power unit, but it did not go into production. The post-war period saw massive changes in the Jowett company with both brothers retiring before the war.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The first all-new model was the Javelin saloon that was launched in 1947 and the Jupiter sportscar in 1950. By 1951, a new range of cars, vans, pick-up and estate cars, known as the Bradford CD range, was proposed, but only reached the prototype stage.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The Jupiter won its class at Le Mans in 1950, 1951 and 1952 in a much-lightened model known as the R1. In 1953, a new Jupiter known at the R4 was launched just in time for the Motor Show, which was hoped to save the ailing company, but sadly, it was not to be with only three prototypes being built.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Unfortunately, none of these models materialised. Jowett’s history could have been so different had fate been kinder to them.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】With Passport and Pen Tales Across Time【電子書籍】[ Mary McMicking Lane ]

＜p＞Mary travelled by ship to England with three companions in 1965 on a working holiday. She was just twenty-two-years old. Over twenty-one months, Mary wrote hundreds of letters to her family at home, sharing her sense of adventure and fun. The letters tell of her excitement in traveling throughout the United Kingdom and into Europe, the Middle East, and Hong Kong. After a fifty-year gap, Mary rediscovered the letters which had been carefully preserved by her mother, Helen, and has presented them in this book as an important record of how young Australians looked at the world in the 1960s. As well as including many excerpts from the original letters, Mary has interspersed recently added memories and reflections, thus showing how time and maturity can influence our thoughts, attitudes and growth. By reading these letters, Mary's audience will get a deeper understanding of Australia's development as a nation, and the influence those 1960s travellers had on its independence and spirit. The narrative is replete with stories of generous strangers and some fascinating, eccentric people. With her good friend Annette, Mary found excitement in ordinary events and turned near disasters into tales to laugh about.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞Edna Brush Perkins visited Death Valley with her good friend and fellow suffragette Charlotte Jordan chronicling their beautiful, sometimes harrowing travels in ＜em＞The White Heart of Mojave,＜/em＞ which was published in 1922. With lively wit, humor, intelligence, and poetic flair, Perkins brings their journey-and a world that has vastly changed-vividly to life.＜/p＞ ＜p＞On a train to California, where the car they intend to use on their still-unplanned road trip holiday awaits, Perkins and Jordan decide to explore Death Valley. They are urged by hotel owners, friends, and even the Automobile Club not to undertake what was then was a dangerous venture into largely uninhabited and inhospitable terrain. They press on.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Finally they find a champion to act as guide and official "Worrier" in the person of Julius Meyer. After loading an old wagon in Beatty, Nevada, with more supplies than seems reasonable at the time they hitch up their "desert-proof" steeds Bill and Molly and venture into Death Valley.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The travelers survive the heat and dearth of water, sandstorms, snow, icy mountains, and exhaustion, and emerge with a sense of awe for the region that readers of Perkins' classic travelogue can only come to share.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Chrysler A-833 Transmissions How to Rebuild and Modify【電子書籍】[ Jamie Passon ]

＜p＞Making horsepower at Chrysler in the early 1960s was nothing new for the Pentastar brand. The 413 RB engine had been producing more than 350 hp since the late 1950s. Joining the lineup in 1963, the 426 Wedge doubled down on the fact that Chrysler was all-in on going fast. The one weakness holding them back from total domination on the streets and strips was with their dated and tired manual shifter, the BorgWarner T-10 transmission. That all changed with the advent of its replacement, the New Process A833.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Jamie Passon of Passon Performance has used his decades of knowledge on the A-833 to create the ultimate book on rebuilding a Chrysler 4-speed. He begins with a historical overview of the long-tenured A-833 and jumps into dissecting what could be malfunctioning in your transmission. The bulk of the book concentrates on disassembling, inspecting, repairing, and reassembling the A-833. With 400 photos, the author shows you exactly how to rebuild your transmission featuring how-to sequences that walk you through each phase.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Whether you own a Polara, Road Runner, Challenger, or Ram truck, you need to have the confidence that your transmission is in top-notch, working condition. Now is the time to eliminate that annoying grind when you put your Mopar into reverse.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】High Performance Chevy Small-Block Cylinder Heads【電子書籍】[ Graham Hansen ]

＜p＞The photos in this edition are black and white.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Any professional performance engine builder will likely tell you the most powerful and important component in an engine are cylinder heads. If you can afford to invest serious money in one component for a street engine, in most cases it should be a set of cylinder heads. While the small-block Chevy engine has been well-chronicled, specific in-depth information on this important component has been more elusive. This book shows you how to choose the best cylinder head for your application. It covers both Gen I and Gen II small-block Chevy versions, occasionally touching on the Gen III and Gen IV production versions. This book taps into some of the best small-block Chevy cylinder head resources this country has to offer with a combination of insight and best estimates, because much of what we know about port design and airflow management falls under the category of art rather than science.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞High-Performance Chevy Small-Block Cylinder Heads＜/em＞ is designed exactly like its predecessor, ＜em＞High-Performance Chevy Small-Block Cams & Valvetrains＜/em＞, in that it starts with the basics and works into more in-depth concepts and variables in an attempt to uncover all those subtle nuances that make up the small-block Chevy. It features airflow basics, extensive flow bench tests (using the Superflow 600 bench), information on production and aftermarket heads, rebuilding and assembly, and basic porting techniques.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

タイトル: Seventh Heaven: Travels Through Jewish Latin America著者: Ilan Stavans出版社: University of Pittsburgh Press出版日: 2019年10月15日古本ほぼ新品。傷みが少なく、しっかりと製本された、優れた、マークのないコピーです。リサイクル可能なアメリカ製の封筒で発送します。すべての注文に 100% 返金保証付き。Internationally renowned essayist and cultural commentator Ilan Stavans spent five years traveling from across a dozen countries in Latin America, in search of what defines the Jewish communities in the region, whose roots date back to Christopher Columbus's arrival. In the tradition of V.S. Naipaul's explorations of India, the Caribbean, and the Arab World, he came back with an extraordinarily vivid travelogue. Stavans talks to families of the desaparecidos in Buenos Aires, to "Indian Jews," and to people affiliated with neo-Nazi groups in Patagonia. He also visits Spain to understand the long-term effects of the Inquisition, the American Southwest habitat of "secret Jews," and Israel, where immigrants from Latin America have reshaped the Jewish state. Along the way, he looks for the proverbial "seventh heaven," which, according to the Talmud, out of proximity with the divine, the meaning of life in general, and Jewish life in particular, becomes clearer. The Seventh Heaven is a masterful work in Stavans's ongoing quest to find a convergence between the personal and the historical.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】52 Places to Go in 2018 From the Basilicata in Italy to the South Pacific pull of Fiji【電子書籍】[ Various ]

＜p＞Here are some frequently asked questions about how we chose our 52 Places to Go in 2018:＜/p＞ ＜p＞Q. What made New Orleans the top choice?＜br /＞ A. In a year that seemed particularly traumatic for many around the world, we look to a place where centuries of trauma have yielded something magical. New Orleans is unlike any other city in the world, largely thanks to its ability to synthesise that history ー and the myriad populations that participated in it ー into a place full of joy and wonder. New Orleans is also turning 300 this year, so there’s no better time to celebrate that history, whether it be through anniversary events, food, music, art or simply wandering this amazing city.＜br /＞ Q. How do you start the process of selecting the list?＜br /＞ A. We ask our regular contributors, many of whom live overseas or roam the globe, for ideas. We get hundreds of them and pare things down from there.＜br /＞ Q. What do you look for in those ideas?＜br /＞ A. First, why now? That is, why is this the year to go to a particular place? We also aim for a geographic and thematic diversity. And we look for a mix of destinations both well-known and off the beaten path. (That means we often exclude the very obvious spots; even though cities like London, Paris and Tokyo are always exciting, they didn’t make this year’s list.)＜br /＞ Q. How do you narrow it down to the final list?＜br /＞ A. A marathon-length meeting, in which we discuss each idea. We get pretty punchy toward the end but are always happy with the final list.＜br /＞ Q. My favorite destination didn’t make the list. Why not?＜br /＞ A. The 52 places we select are, of course, just the start. There are thousands of wonderful destinations to consider.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】1970 Plymouth Road Runner Muscle Cars In Detail No. 10【電子書籍】[ Scott Ross ]

＜p＞By 1969, the muscle car war among Ford, General Motors, and Chrysler had reached a fevered pitch. Plymouth's Road Runner, Mopar's intermediate entry, was leading the charge. For 1970, the Road Runner had its strongest year yet as it housed the best street V-8s Chrysler had to offer.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Author Scott Ross retraces the history of the Road Runner and brings the 1970 model year into full focus. The stripped-down Road Runner exemplified the essence of a purpose-built muscle car: brute power and stunning acceleration. A new aggressive grille and Air Grabber hood provided an audacious yet tasteful performance statement. The back-to-basics 'Bird had a unique character with its iconic cartoon Road Runner graphics and beep-beep horn.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Underneath the skin, the Road Runner lived up to its persona. The 335-hp 383 was one of fastest 383s Chrysler built because it was fitted with the 440 camshaft, heads, and manifolds for even more performance. The 440 Six Pack car generated 390 hp and gained a reputation as a stout street performer. And at the top, the conservatively rated 425-hp 426 Hemi set the standard for performance.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The Road Runner was lighter than the Cuda and somewhat overbuilt as it was one of the toughest and most consistent muscle cars. To transfer all this power to the ground, the Road Runner was equipped with the A-833 4-speed or TorqueFlite 727 automatic. With a torsion-bar suspension and heavy-duty rear end, the Road Runner handled well. However, these are just a few of the highlights of this complete story.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Each volume in the In Detail Series provides an introduction and historical overview, an explanation of the design and concepts involved in creating the car, a look at marketing and promotion, an in-depth study of all hardware and available options, as well as an examination of where the car is on the market today. Also included are paint and option codes, VIN and build tag decoders, as well as production numbers.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Diese Reisestrecke ?ber 700 km, die diese Menschen unter f?r heutige Leser fremden Bedingungen zur?cklegten, wurde von den Autorinnen nicht nur in den historischen Quellen aufgesp?rt und nachgezeichnet, sondern auch nachgewandert. So entstand im Unterwegs-Sein eine Ann?herung an jene Eindr?cke, die den damaligen Reisenden widerfuhren. Das Lese- und Wanderbuch zeichnet ein umfassendes Bild des historischen und des heutigen Weges, das die Autorinnen den Lesern und Wanderern mit auf den Weg geben m?chten.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】In Search of the South Pole【電子書籍】[ Huw Lewis-Jones ]

＜p＞In 1911 the world was watching, waiting, hoping, attention focused on a desolate spot at the very end of the earth, as two men raced to conquer the South Pole. A hundred years after Roald Amundsen's triumph and Robert Scott's tragic demise, our fascination with the Antarctic remains as acute as ever. On the centenary of their epic expeditions, this book traces our search for the South Pole, from the earliest encounters with Antarctica's icy waters, through the Heroic Age to modern times. In addition to the words of Scott and Amundsen, vivid descriptions from the logbooks, journals and narratives of pioneers such as Carsten Borchgrevink, Ernest Shackleton and Douglas Mawson provide first-hand experiences of this enigmatic and unforgiving region. In our own times, there is commentary from modern explorers and travellers, writers and scientists, who explain what the South Pole means to them. Among those featured are Edmund Hillary, Vivian Fuchs, Ranulph Fiennes and Borge Ousland. Stunning images by Herbert Ponting and Frank Hurley, and from the personal collections of explorers and adventure photographers, as well as contemporary ephemera and artefacts, illustrate the hardships of life on the ice. The authors have woven together the narrative of this enduring human quest with individual stories to place the Scott-Amundsen race in historical context and consider its legacy in the manhaulers, extreme skiers and adventure tourists of today. In the 21st century the South Pole remains an international stage for ambition and personal endeavour. For anyone who has felt the pull of this magnetic place ? this is the book for you.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
