THE TRAGEDY OF MONOMOY BEACH THE GRAVEYARD OF THE ATLANTIC
THE TRAGEDY OF MONOMOY BEACH THE GRAVEYARD OF THE ATLANTIC by CLARKSON P. BEARSE is a haunting account of the perilous coastline known as Monomoy Beach. Bearse explores the numerous shipwrecks and tragedies that have occurred along this treacherous stretch of the Atlantic, weaving together history, geography, and human drama.

Canadian composer John Beckwith recounts his early days in Victoria, his studies in Toronto with Alberto Guerrero, his first compositions, and his later studies in Paris with the renowned Nadia Boulanger, of whom he offers a comprehensive personal view. In the memoir’s central chapters Beckwith describes his activities as a writer, university teacher, scholar, and administrator. Then, turning to his creative output, he considers his compositions for instrumental music, his four operas, choral music, and music for voice. A final chapter touches on his personal and family life and his travel adventures. For over sixty years John Beckwith has participated in national musical initiatives in mu...

General Theory of Wave-drag Reduction for Combinations Employing Quasi-cylindrical Bodies with an Application to Swept-wing and Body Combinations
The wing-body interference theory of NACA TN 2677 applied to symmetrical wings in combination with quasi-cylindrical bodies permits the direct calculation of pressure-distribution changes produced by body shape changes. This theory is used to determine the relative magnitued of the wave-drag reduction produced by changes in cylinder cross-sectional area and that produced changes in cross-sectional shape (without change in area). The body distortion is expressed as a Fourier series, and an integral equation is derived for the body shape for minimum drag for each Fourier component. Thus the wave-drag reductions for the various Fourier harmonics are independent and additive.
