But behind that shy exterior was a determined spirit destined for greatness. Amelia defied expectations, challenged gender norms, and broke barriers in aviation to become one of the most famous pilots in history. From her first transatlantic flight to her mysterious disappearance over the Pacific, this book follows the incredible journey of a woman who never stopped reaching for the sky.

Phoenician Civilization (Ancient Civilizations)
As the tee-shirt slogans say, "If you can read this, thank the Phoenicians." The Phoenician achievements include creating the world's first alphabet, which consisted of 22 consonant letters. If you're sipping wine as you read, that's another reason to thank the Phoenicians. From their travels, they learned which grapes were most suited for winemaking and spread those vines to the places along their trading routes. The Phoenicians were the masters of the Mediterranean Sea, traders whose purple dye colored the royal raiment of the elite, whose horse-headed ships sailed forth from the rich and sophisticated city-states of Byblos, Sidon, and Tyre, and who may have, according to the historian Herodotus, even circumnavigated Africa. These people were so wealthy that when empires came to conquer, they paid tribute rather than go to war, a method which worked for a time -- that is until the armies of the Persians under Cyrus the Great and Alexander the Great came to the city walls.
