Evangeline “Evie” Gibb lives a seemingly charmed life on a thoroughbred racehorse farm. But in reality, Evie feels alone in the world, cheered only by the affection of a racehorse named No Justice. She’s always been told that her mother, Angela Parson, is dead. Then, on her sixteenth birthday, a card arrives from her great aunt Mary with the suggestion that Angela might still be alive — and Evie’s life is turned upside down. In hopes of winning enough money to leave her hateful father and find her mother, Evie enters the Caledon Horse Race. But something she overhears her father say changes everything, and Evie steals the racehorse in the night and runs away. With a stray dog named Magpie at her side and help from Aunt Mary, Evie unearths long-hidden family secrets, finds unexpected love, and takes the racing world by storm.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There was a time when women jockeys were not welcome in the world of professional race-riding. But then one dauntless rider confronted prejudice and bullying, and refused to accept she had no place in what was once deemed a male-only environment. She would become the first British female professional jockey, taking on such illustrious names as Pat Eddery, Steve Cauthen and Walter Swinburn, and the first to win a race against men. Her ambition and courage led the way for others to follow - including the likes of Hayley Turner, the first woman to ride 100 Flat winners in a season, and Bryony Frost, the first female jump jockey to ride a Grade 1 winner at Cheltenham. No Place for a Girl chronicles four tumultuous years in the life of a woman who rode roughshod over prevailing attitudes and became the first woman to reach a significant staging post in the quest for equality. Her name is Karen Wiltshire, and this is her story.

Book Synopsis Selling Sex Overseas by : Ko-lin Chin
Download or read book Selling Sex Overseas written by Ko-lin Chin and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2012-09-17 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2013 Outstanding Book Award Winner from the Division of International Criminology, American Society of Criminology Every year, thousands of Chinese women travel to Asia and the United States in order to engage in commercial sex work. In Selling Sex Overseas, Ko-lin Chin and James Finckenauer challenge the current sex trafficking paradigm that considers all sex workers as victims, or sexual slaves, and as unwilling participants in the world of commercial sex. Bringing to life an on-the-ground portrait of this usually hidden world, Chin and Finckenauer provide a detailed look at all of its participants: sex workers, pimps, agents, mommies, escort agency owners, brothel owners, and drivers. Ultimately, they probe the social, economic, and political organization of prostitution and sex trafficking, contradicting many of the ‘moral crusaders’ of the human trafficking world.

Book Synopsis Montana Horse Racing by : Brenda Wahler
Download or read book Montana Horse Racing written by Brenda Wahler and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2019-09-02 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, on prairie grasslands, dusty streets and racing ovals, everyday Montanans participated in the sport of kings. More than a century after horses arrived in the region, Lewis and Clark's Nez Perce guides staged horse races at Traveler's Rest in 1806. In response to hazardous street races, the Montana legislature granted communities authority to ban "immoderate riding or driving." Helena led the way to respectable racing, with Madam Coady's fashion course hosting the first territorial fair in 1868. Soon, leading citizens like Marcus Daly built oval tracks and glitzy grandstands. By 1890, a horse named Bob Wade set a world record for a quarter mile in Butte, a mark that stood until 1958. Horsewoman and historian Brenda Wahler highlights the Big Sky's patrons of the turf and courageous equine champions, including Kentucky Derby winner Spokane.
