Excerpt from Lusitanian Sketches of the Pen and Pencil, Vol. 1 of 2 The second volume may be found more interesting than the first, as it contains a description of a wider district, and of a greater variety of scenery. In' it I have given an account of the wine-country, the production of port wine, the method of preserving and treating it, and advice to wine-merchants and private gentlemen as to the best way of selecting it. I have touched also on the Oporto Wine Company, and on the subject of the lately projected rail-roads. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Lusitanian Sketches of the Pen and Pencil, Vol. 1 of 2 The following Sketches were written at different periods during a residence of nearly two years in the north of Portugal. They consist partly of tours made through the northern provinces from the Minho to the Mondego. The work is intended therefore to serve as a guide-book to travellers visiting the country, which object, though increasing the value to that portion of my readers, may give a degree of heaviness to some of the early pages, which I trust will not be found to be their general characteristic. My chief aim has been by them to illustrate the present political, social, and religious state of the Portuguese; and I hope I may have conveyed to my English readers a better knowledge of the country than the greater number now possess. I can assure my Portuguese friends, that if I have at times spoken of their faults or failings, I have done so without the least approach to ill-feeling; and I trust that nothing I have said will interrupt the harmony in which I have for many years lived among them. The second volume may be found more interesting than the first, as it contains a description of a wider district, and of a greater variety of scenery.

After decades of civil war and instability, the African country of Angola is experiencing a spectacular economic boom thanks to its most valuable natural resource: oil. Focusing on the everyday realities of people living in the extraction zones, Reed explores the exclusion, degradation, and violence that are the fruits of petrocapitalism in Angola.

In 1913, Russian imperial marines stormed an Orthodox monastery at Mt. Athos, Greece, to haul off monks engaged in a dangerously heretical practice known as Name Worshipping. Exiled to remote Russian outposts, the monks and their mystical movement went underground. Ultimately, they came across Russian intellectuals who embraced Name Worshipping—and who would achieve one of the biggest mathematical breakthroughs of the twentieth century, going beyond recent French achievements. Loren Graham and Jean-Michel Kantor take us on an exciting mathematical mystery tour as they unravel a bizarre tale of political struggles, psychological crises, sexual complexities, and ethical dilemmas. At the core of this book is the contest between French and Russian mathematicians who sought new answers to one of the oldest puzzles in math: the nature of infinity. The French school chased rationalist solutions. The Russian mathematicians, notably Dmitri Egorov and Nikolai Luzin—who founded the famous Moscow School of Mathematics—were inspired by mystical insights attained during Name Worshipping. Their religious practice appears to have opened to them visions into the infinite—and led to the founding of descriptive set theory. The men and women of the leading French and Russian mathematical schools are central characters in this absorbing tale that could not be told until now. Naming Infinity is a poignant human interest story that raises provocative questions about science and religion, intuition and creativity.
