Описание: The Room on the Roof is a timeless coming-of-age novel that will resonate with a whole new generation of readers. Written by renowned author Ruskin Bond when he was just seventeen, it is the story of Rusty, a teenage Anglo-Indian boy who is orphaned and has to live with his English guardian in the stifling European quarter of Dehra Dun. Unhappy with the strict ways of his guardian, Rusty runs away from home to live with his Indian friends into the dream-bright world of the bazaar, Hindu festivals and all manner of Indian life.
Rusty is enthralled, and is lost forever to the prim proprieties of the claustrophic European community.

Описание: "Like taking a tour of the White House with a gifted storyteller at your side " 1.Why, in the minutes before John F. Kennedy was murdered, was a blood-red carpet installed in the Oval Office? 2.If Abraham Lincoln never slept in the Lincoln Bedroom, where did he sleep? 3.Why was one president nearly killed in the White House on inauguration day--and another secretly sworn in? 4.What really happened in the Situation Room on September 11, 2001? History leaps off the page in this "riveting," "fast-moving" and "highly entertaining" book on the presidency and White House in Under This Roof, from award-winning White House-based journalist Paul Brandus. Reporting from the West Wing briefing room since 2008, Brandus--the most followed White House journalist on Twitter (@WestWingReport)--weaves together stories of the presidents, their families, the events of their time--and an oft-ignored major character, the White House itself. From George Washington to Barack Obama--the story of the White House is the story of America itself, Brandus writes. You'll: 1.Walk with John Adams through the still-unfinished mansion, and watch Thomas Jefferson plot to buy the Louisiana Territory 2.Feel the fear and panic as British invaders approach the mansion in 1814--and Dolley Madison frantically saves a painting of Washington 3.Gaze out the window with Abraham Lincoln as Confederate flags flutter in the breeze on the other side of the Potomac 4.Be in the room as one president is secretly sworn in, and another gambles away the White House china in a card game 5.Stand by the presidential bed as one First Lady--covering up her husband's illness from the nation--secretly makes decisions on his behalf 6.Learn how telephones, movies, radio, TV changed the presidency--and the nation itself Through triumph and tragedy, boom and bust, secrets and scandals, Brandus takes you to the presidential bedroom, movie theater, Situation Room, Oval Office and more. Under This Roof is a "sensuous account of the history of both the home of the President, and the men and women who designed, inhabited, and decorated it. Paul Brandus captivates with surprising, gloriously raw observations."

Описание: What are "Root Words"? -- A root, or root word is a word which is used to form another word. It is also called a base word. A root does not have a prefix (a letter or group of letters added to the beginning of a word) or a suffix (a letter or group of letters added to the end of a word). Root is the primary lexical unit of a word, and of a word family. For example, pure is a root. By adding prefixes and suffixes, the following words could be made: impure, purity, pureness. Similarly, play and move are root words. By adding prefixes and suffixes, the following words could be made: plays, played, playing, player - moving, movement, moved, movable, mover, movingly.

Описание: Delineation of Dwelling Roof Design and Assemblage is a two volume series that explains in detail every aspect of the design and construction of residential roofs. The focus of this series is twofold. One is the description of multiple methods, the other is an in-depth explanation of the use of the framing square as the chief tool used for cutting a roof. The author explains how to use a framing square to to figure any roof cut including sheathing. This series goes beyond other roof framing books because methods of construction are also explained. Many illustrations are used as needed to further explain these concepts. Volume 1 describes the basic concepts, aesthetic impact of different roof forms, the fundamental tools, basic roof cutting, and the cutting of complex roofs. Multiple examples are used to describe each concept.Volume 2 explores roof concepts and materials that are commonly used, but are difficult to find information about. This volume describes cutting of miscellaneous roof forms, green roof construction, and alternative materials used for roof framing. This volume also explains estimating of roof framing materials to a depth that no other text does.
