Holy Old Mackinaw


Book Description

Holy Old Mackinaw is the rough and lusty story of the American lumberjack at work and at play, from Maine to Oregon. In these modern days timber is harvested by cigarette-smoking married men, whose children go to school in buses, but for nearly three hundred years the logger was a real pioneer who ranged through the forests of many states, steel calks in his boots and ax in his fist, a plug of chew handy, who emerged at intervals into the towns to call on soft ladies and drink hard liquor.




Masseiana Volume Three Part One


Book Description

This is the first volume in Massey's duo-volumes typological trilogy in which he attempts to demonstrate the African genesis of the human race, and its apotheosis in the ancient civilisation of Egypt, with remnants of the diaspora to be found throughout the world, and recoverable through the study of types. Volume One concentrates on the British Isles. In this revised edition, the text has been tidied up, punctation improved for easier reading, spellings modernised, foreign words italicised, quotations checked against the original sources and corrected where necessary, titles and author names corrected, whilst still retaining the original pagination and Massey's footnotes. All referential and bibliographical notes have been moved to a separate volume. (See Volume 3, Part 2.) An important work like this has now, after long research and considerable labour, been given a new lease of life so that its light can shine once more yet with greater clarity.
