The final questions was about the Pendragon, upon which Ransom told the man that was he. The man the company identifies as Merlin, prophesizes about Mr. Bultitude.

    chapter 8-16 Summaries

    The physical remains of humanly made artifacts form the bulk of the archaeological record. The artifacts that are found by archaeologists may not represent the range of objects actually used because certain materials preserve better than others. For this reason, stone tools and ceramics dominate the archaeological record. Objects made of fabric, cord, skin, and other organic materials no doubt date back to the very earliest archaeological periods but they rarely survive. The introduction of pottery in a culture seems to coincide with the adoption of a sedentary way of life.…

Captain Robert Shaw is injured in the battle and assumed lost, but is found alive by a gravedigger named John Rawlins and sent to a field hospital.

    The Good Rain By Timothy Egan Summary

    Timothy Egan’s “The Good Rain: Across Time and Terrain in the Pacific Northwest”, explains to the readers about the changes Seattle had gone through in many years in the past. The essay begins as Egan kayaks toward the Elliot Bay, explaining about the change of life in Seattle’s past and present times. He points out how different Seattle looked in the past compare to its looks today. As he states on page 127, “The city has changed its look three times in the last thirty years, and half a dozen times in the last century.” He argues that the process of continuous remodeling has led many hills to be cut in half; some rivers and lake even disappeared. Yet, he also mentions that the city is not finished; argues that no matter how complete the city becomes, every wave of fresh tenants wants to remodel. Egan tells a story about George Vancouver, the first pioneer to explore North West region and target Puget Sound onto a map eventually impacting the region to become populated; full of villages, mansions and cottages. He also tells the reader of how Seattle was named after a person named “Sealth”, a native…

In Chapters eight and nine when are introduced to the stories of Gene Rosellini, John Waterman, Carl McCunn, and Everett Ruess. Each man had a different story however obviously the same skeletal structure.

Previously being a 4.0 GPA student and a star athlete, Gene eventually became overcome by his soon-to-be failed hypothesis “convinced that humans had devolved into progressively inferior beings” (Krakauer…

    Summary Of Eye Of The Storm By Carn Rousse

    After reading “Eye of the Storm” by Carolyn Rousse, it makes me question the diversity and quantity of the realities each of us perceive. In the beginning of the piece, there are two narratives provided that are quite different, yet about the same people. Both narratives include a black man and woman who survive a “terrible storm”. Yet, every other detail is different. In the first narrative, the couple sells drugs without explanation while in the other narrative the couple sells drugs because of “poor education, limited job skills, and alienation from middle and upper-middle class social networks…” (64).…

    Merlin In The Crystal Cave

    Merlin has no control over his power. Merlin only knows what his god wants him to know. Merlin can only see the big picture and not the small details. Merlin knows that the plan will be fulfilled, but he does not know “how” it will be. For example, he does not foresee killing King Gorlios. As much as Merlin is a prophet, he is still mortal. Merlin has faults like everybody else. Uther blames Merlin for how the plan happened, but Uther quickly forgets that Merlin never guaranteed anything. The problem is everyone expects more than Merlin can deliver. Nobody can deny that Merlin is a great prophet, but people get mad when Merlin cannot fulfill every whim. They do not understand that his power does not work on command. People expect more than what Merlin can…
