Book excerpt: Roy Rogers' golden palomino, Trigger, was the perhaps the most famous horse in film--more popular than the man himself among certain fans. In its expanded second edition, this detailed look at the animals and men who created the legend of "the smartest horse in the movies" examines the life story of the original Trigger--and his doubles, particularly Little Trigger, the extraordinary trick horse. Movies in which Trigger appeared without Rogers are discussed. More than 200 photographs (90 new to this edition) and 30,000 words of additional material are included, covering unresolved aspects of Trigger's story, controversies surrounding the sale of the Roy Roger's Museum collection and the fate of his legacy.
Book Synopsis To Hell and Back by : Shawn J. Lyons
Download or read book To Hell and Back written by Shawn J. Lyons and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-12-29 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a story about a wager between an angel and a demon over the direction a man ́s life will take. All of the stories in this book are based on true events that occurred in the life of the author or in Biblical history. There have been many testimonials written that describe the lifestyles that people have been delivered from but very few address the struggles that ordinary Christians face when they begin their walk with God. Most people will struggle with the flesh and with wrong attitudes and will not know how to deal with the demons that will come to tempt, discourage, and oppress them. I want people who read this book to be able to identify with some of the struggles faced by the characters and be encouraged that they are not alone in their own personal struggles. Salvation is instant but holiness is a lifelong journey that requires constant maintenance checks. I want to assure them that God loves them despite their shortcomings and still wants to use them to build His kingdom. The purpose of this book is to entertain, educate, and equip. I put the story into a fiction format to attract the average reader who is interested in God, angels, and demons but doesn ́t necessarily attend church services. I tried to fill the srories with information about God and the benefits of being a Christian. I want to make them aware of the demonic forces arrayed against them and teach them about the power that is available to them to combat these forces of darkness. There are many scripture references and Biblical reenactments that should spark curiosity and provoke the reader to further bible study on their own. For the serious Bible student there is a wealth of information from the Book of Enoch and the Testament of Solomon. Although this is a work of fiction there was a lot of reseach done and the information found in this book can be used to help you make the right decisions in life, to protect yourself from demonic entities, and to have a more satisfying relationship with God and enjoy the benefits of being in covenant with Him.
Download or read book Corky Bonner written by John J. Tomashek and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does a guy do when he tries to flush his life down the toilet--and the plumbing gets jammed? Brian Corcoran "Corky" Bonner was a precocious child; as a teen, he has been a happy high school student who has achieved success as an athlete, musician, and writer. But during his senior year, everything changes. A crippling series of tragedies--some caused by fate, others by malice--brings Corky to his knees. Overwhelmed by misfortunes and the sudden death of Mark, his life twin and soul mate, Corky's life quickly spins out of control. Lacking support from his parents and community, his suffering culminates in a serious--but failed--suicide attempt. Now, a few months shy of his eighteenth birthday, Corky must essentially start his life over. As a freshman at university, Corky struggles, dragged down by the need to stay afloat in the wake of tragedy. Along the way, he needs help--some of which he finds himself, while other help finds him. Corky must decide how to build his life anew, choosing those parts of his past that he wants to preserve and others he needs to discard. Can he find the strength to confront the ghosts of his past, the prejudices of his present, and the doubts of his future?

Book Synopsis In Search of Corky by : Paul J. Greenhalgh, Jr.
Download or read book In Search of Corky written by Paul J. Greenhalgh, Jr. and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corky lured me into his story of fame, addiction, lies and discovery of the only true path to freedom. In our world, athletes are "idols" someone whom followers desire what they have. What we desperately need is "heroes" someone we want to emulate. The transition, idol to hero, is a common challenge for all addicts. Each of us battles his own addictions; destructive behaviors that we cannot control. Addiction is loss of self. This is the story of Corky's pain and acceptance by the One source of hope. If ever a life appeared wasted, it was Corky's during the eighteen months I knew him. As a teenager in Newark, he perfected a deadly jump shot. His skill carried him to the Pistons and the Lakers. But first, he spent endless hours perfecting Newark city basketball moves as the only white kid in the neighborhood. He was compelled by an inner urge that guided him when and how to pass and when to shoot. Minimal notice was given to responsibility. For two years he set scoring records in junior college. Corky strutted into George Washington University. Coach Bill Reinhart molded a team that became champions of the Southern Conference ( Corky is still highest scorer for three-year players). He finished as game high scorer in the East vs West college All-star game in Madison Square Garden. It was 1955 and his picture appeared on the cover of Life magazine. After pro-basketball, Corky fell under a deadly addiction to gambling. His story is told through the memories of those who knew him. My own interaction with him opens the book. Walter Corky' Devlin lay comatose on a couch. I discovered him sleeping in a bipolar trance. Later, I would become fascinated by his pro basketball and fast lane experiences. I thought we became friends. But friendship requires differing contributions from its participants. Corky enlisted me as observer during his march to self-destruction. I served as willing accomplice. He boasted that he could, "See my soul." During those days, I possessed limited understanding of what he revealed. Never trust a con. I knew nothing of compulsive gambling. I encouraged him to victimize me. Finally, penniless, he migrated to a monastery in Kentucky. Initially I planned to visit Corky to record his story on videotape. A fortuitous warning from a friend short-circuited my trip. Corky's version of his life consistently fabricated facts. His death launched a posthumous search, which threatened my faith. I couldn't accept writing write a life story risking a negative outcome. I solicited opinions and insights from those who knew him. Corky's stories proved fraudulent the creation of what he wanted me to find. I uncovered a complex mosaic of a soul struggling with addiction before surrendering he admitted his lies. A few sources verified his accounts of basketball accomplishments at George Washington University. Corky starred on a renowned nationally ranked team. He constantly basked in his story of punching the villainous Hot Rod Hundley. He repeated that story for forty years. His punch proved only imagined. I spoke with players Hot Rod, Chuck Noble, Paul Arizin, Tom Gola and Zelda Spoelstra (at NBA Headquarters). Everyone liked charismatic Corky. Most gave him money. His gambling progressed into compulsion. He claimed that on the day his father died, he lost his wife to his best friend. Those traumas provided his trigger; neither incident proved true. Destructive gambling proved to be his real deal. He focused solely on his next bet feeling little regret for those he hurt. Corky's younger brother, Bob, idolized players in the NBA. Bob enabled his brother's addiction until Corky found Gethsemani, a Trappist monastery in Kentucky. Bob and his wife alone represented the family at Corky's funeral. Jim Murray (1980 GM of the Philadelphia Eagles) and Corky were close friends. Jim founded the Ronald Mc
