Download or read book Harm's Valley written by James Halligan and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2019-03-14 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortly before the civil war began, Harm Carlyle, sixteen years old, and a fourteen-year-old half black girl named Essie had been raised together on a Georgia plantation. She was the love of his life, and they wanted to live together as man and wife but could not because of the prejudice of the time in the South. They set off on a journey west to find a home. They had no idea of the problems that they would face. In New Mexico, their love was severely tested when Harm saved the life of a young Indian boy, the son of the chief. As a reward, he was forced to take two Indian girls for wives. Also they were to lead them to a beautiful valley that was beyond their dreams, but their problems were not yet over.
Download or read book Harm's Way written by James Bassett and published by . This book was released on 2024-02-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harm's Way, first published in 1962, is a classic novel of the U.S. Navy in the Pacific during World War II, beginning with a ship on patrol in the waters off Pearl Harbor, and then following the men and ships as they engage the enemy in a time of war. From the dust-jacket: "Framed by the open weather door of his cabin, where he stood peering through the obscure dawn toward Oahu's invisible shoreline, Captain Rockwell Torrey, USN, was not unlike the ship he commanded: tall, spare, angular, and plainly fabricated out of the same hard gray substance that armored both man and cruiser against the weapons of a hostile world. To his Naval Academy classmates, to the men he commanded, to the woman he loved, this man was known as "The Rock." If he possessed any human weaknesses, they were hidden behind a granite facade, unsuspected by subordinates and superiors alike. Yet Rockwell Torrey was a human being, a mere man as well as a fearless leader, beset by doubts, haunted by memory, forced into decision, confronted with fantastic challenges. In spite of - or because of - his humanity, he was first and foremost a commander. Harm's Way is the story of this command, of the war in the Pacific as viewed from the fighting bridge, through the eyes of one officer. It is the story of a man assigned the impossible - to get a stalled operation back on its timetable, mount an invasion against a stronghold reputedly impregnable, stop the enemy's drive against overwhelming odds-and how he succeeded." Author James Bassett was a staff officer closely associated with Fleet Admiral William F. Halsey, and handled his press relations from the Guadalcanal campaign to the Japanese surrender in Tokyo Bay. Bassett held the rank of captain, USNR (Ret.). The novel was the basis for the 1965 Otto Preminger movie In Harm's Way, starring John Wayne and Kirk Douglas.

Download or read book In Harm's Way written by Kathleen Kern and published by Lutterworth Press. This book was released on 2009-03-26 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1984 Evangelicals for Social Action founder Ron Sider posed the question: 'What would happen if we in the Christian church developed a new non-violent peacekeeping force ready to move into violent conflicts and stand peacefully between warring parties? . . . Everyone assumes that for the sake of peace it is moral and just for soldiers to get killed by the hundreds of thousands, even millions. Do we not have as much courage and faith as soldiers?' Christian Peacemaker Teams (CPT) has been trying to answer those questions since 1986. CPT has responded to invitations from grassroots organisers on five continents who are using non-violent strategies to confront systemic oppression. This book provides a glimpse into the mistakes and successes, the triumphsand tragedies, that teams have shared in with local co-workers in various nations. It also continues to pose the question: What would happen if CPT's efforts were multiplied by millions of Christians with a radical commitment to Jesusi non-violent gospel?
Book Synopsis How We Do Harm by : Otis Webb Brawley, MD
Download or read book How We Do Harm written by Otis Webb Brawley, MD and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2012-01-31 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How We Do Harm exposes the underbelly of healthcare today—the overtreatment of the rich, the under treatment of the poor, the financial conflicts of interest that determine the care that physicians' provide, insurance companies that don't demand the best (or even the least expensive) care, and pharmaceutical companies concerned with selling drugs, regardless of whether they improve health or do harm. Dr. Otis Brawley is the chief medical and scientific officer of The American Cancer Society, an oncologist with a dazzling clinical, research, and policy career. How We Do Harm pulls back the curtain on how medicine is really practiced in America. Brawley tells of doctors who select treatment based on payment they will receive, rather than on demonstrated scientific results; hospitals and pharmaceutical companies that seek out patients to treat even if they are not actually ill (but as long as their insurance will pay); a public primed to swallow the latest pill, no matter the cost; and rising healthcare costs for unnecessary—and often unproven—treatments that we all pay for. Brawley calls for rational healthcare, healthcare drawn from results-based, scientifically justifiable treatments, and not just the peddling of hot new drugs. Brawley's personal history – from a childhood in the gang-ridden streets of black Detroit, to the green hallways of Grady Memorial Hospital, the largest public hospital in the U.S., to the boardrooms of The American Cancer Society—results in a passionate view of medicine and the politics of illness in America - and a deep understanding of healthcare today. How We Do Harm is his well-reasoned manifesto for change.

Book excerpt: In June 1940 Britain expected enemy invasion. Despite Churchill's determination to fight on the beaches, many parents made desperate efforts to send their children abroad to safety. Thousands left for America, Canada, Australia and other distant countries. In this revealing new book, Jessica Mann, herself a wartime evacuee, looks at the experiences of those who were sent away to a foreign land including their dangerous journeys across U-boat-ridden oceans, and asks how they coped with being away, and also how they found life back in the UK on their return. Drawing on extensive original research and memories of many former evacuees, including Elizabeth Taylor and Shirley Williams, Jessica Mann builds up a moving portrait of a lost generation.

Download or read book In Harm's Way written by Javier Auyero and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2016-08-02 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A harrowing look at violence among Argentina's urban poor Arquitecto Tucci, a neighborhood in Buenos Aires, is a place where crushing poverty and violent crime are everyday realities. Homicides—often involving young people—continue to skyrocket, and in the emergency room there, victims of shootings or knifings are an all-too-common sight. In Harm's Way takes a harrowing look at daily life in Arquitecto Tucci, examining the sources, uses, and forms of interpersonal violence among the urban poor at the very margins of Argentine society. Drawing on more than two years of immersive fieldwork, sociologist Javier Auyero and María Berti, an elementary school teacher in the neighborhood, provide a powerful and disarmingly intimate account of what it is like to live under the constant threat of violence. They argue that being physically aggressive becomes a habitual way of acting in poor and marginalized communities, and that violence is routine and carries across various domains of public and private life. Auyero and Berti trace how different types of violence—be it criminal, drug related, sexual, or domestic—overlap, intersect, and blur together. They show how the state is complicit in the production of harm, and describe the routines and relationships that residents, particularly children, establish to cope with and respond to the constant risk that besieges them and their loved ones. Provocative, eye-opening, and extraordinarily moving, In Harm's Way is destined to become a classic work on violence at the urban margins.
