Frederick Way,Joseph W. Rutter: Way's Packet Directory 1848-1994 : Passenger Steamboats of the Mississippi River System since the Advent of Photography in Mid-Continent America


Description
The first Mississippi steamboat was a packet, the New Orleans, a sidewheeler built at Pittsburgh in 1811, designed for the New Orleans-Natchez trade. Packets dominated during the first forty years of steam, providing the quickest passenger transportation throughout mid-continent America. The packets remained fairly numerous even into the first two decades of the twentieth century when old age or calamity overtook them. By the 1930s, the flock was severely depleted, and today the packet is extinct. Containing almost 6,000 entries, Way's Packet Directory includes a majority of combination passenger and freight steamers, but includes in a broader sense all types of passenger carriers propelled by steam that plied the waters of the Mississippi System. Each entry describes its steamboat by rig, class, engines, boilers, the shipyard where and when built, along with tidbits of historical interest on its use, demise, and/or conversion.
Stories from real life Raimon Panikkars life work has LINKing Authentic Assessment and Early Childhood Intervention : Best Measures for Best Practices download PDF centered on articulating the way divinization is our full humanization, and how a human being, fully alive, is the best revelation of divinity. ""The guiding thread of Christophany,"" Panikkar writes, ""is to lead to a personal experience of that mystery."" More than simply a book about mysticism, Christophany offers the attentive reader a way to experience the mystical depths of life. To know Jesus is to experience Jesus mystical life, in particular to share in divinity, and to know God as ""Abba."" What happened in the life of Christ will happen in us and, in our transformed lives, God lives in us without us losing our own being. Since retiring from the University of California, Santa Barbara, Raimon Panikkar has lived in the mountains of his homeland, Catalonia, above Barcelona, Spain. His works include The Cosmotheandric Experience and The Intra-religious Dialogue.
