Books with author Gav Thorpe

In a world that's filled with people with special abilities and powers, three siblings quickly learn that they have powers that are far more unique and different from anyone else on Earth. They soon learn that they are only half-human, a great evil seeks to destroy them when they are discovered, because ultimately, they may be the only hope to make things right again in the galaxy. They realize that their destinies are intertwined with the fate of the galaxy and they must do all that they can to restore peace.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Excerpt from Pioneering in the "Never-Never"On one occasion he ran out of petrol. The result was he had the painful ordeal of having to walk back twenty miles - without food and very little water - and seek assistance. This is typical of the many experiences he recounted to us.Many of the stations he visited had not seen a minister in living memory. All the preaching had to be done in pubs, shearing sheds, mustering camps, etc., and as Mr. Thorpe was a one-man show, the task of getting a place of worship and a congregation was often times a heart-breaking job, but grit and good-will got over most difficulties, and our speaker's efforts, which sometimes look thankless, proved in the end to be not in vain. He was able to tell us that his labours and loneliness - and that of his wife who accompanied him on his last trips - were rewarded when on his return to Sydney his chief, who knew what he had achieved told him his trips had been a travelling benediction When we hear of a man taking so many risks, undergoing so much physical and mental strain, and openly expressing his absolute trust in Divine power, the best that is in us is quick to respond.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
