Meanwhile, the capture of a wild rodeo bull while Hank and Marty are away at the auction tries Jake's skills and patience and almost takes his life as he struggles to bring him in. While Randy learns quickly what it means to be a cowboy, he and his dad discover a mutual respect and love for each other through the trials and hardships of ranch life.
Book Synopsis The Texas Calaboose and Other Forgotten Jails by : William E. Moore
Download or read book The Texas Calaboose and Other Forgotten Jails written by William E. Moore and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2018-12-20 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A calaboose is, quite simply, a tiny jail. Designed to house prisoners only for a short time, a calaboose could be anything from an iron cage to a poured concrete blockhouse. Easily constructed and more affordable for small communities than a full-sized building, calabooses once dotted the rural landscape. Though a relic of a bygone era in law enforcement and no longer in use, many calabooses remain in communities throughout Texas, often hidden in plain sight. In The Texas Calaboose and Other Forgotten Jails, William E. Moore has compiled the first guidebook to extant calabooses in Texas. He explores the history of the calaboose, including its construction, use, and eventual decline, but the heart of the book is in the alphabetically arranged photo tour of calabooses across the state. Each entry is accompanied by a vignette describing the unique features of the calaboose at hand, any infamous or otherwise memorable occupants, and the state of the calaboose at present. Most have been long abandoned, but because many remain on city or town property, some have been repurposed into storage buildings or even government offices. In certain ways, these small jails encapsulate the history of outlying communities during a time of transition from the “Wild West” to the twentieth century. Some of the structures have been preserved and cared-for, but despite the stories they can tell, many more are endangered or have already been lost. This definitive guide to tiny Texas jails serves as a record of a unique and disappearing feature of our heritage.

Book Synopsis Phil Gordon's Little Blue Book by : Phil Gordon
Download or read book Phil Gordon's Little Blue Book written by Phil Gordon and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-12-01 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Poker: The Real Deal and Phil Gordon's Little Green Book, Phil Gordon -- a world-class player and teacher -- shared the strategies, tips, and expertise he's gleaned during his phenomenally successful career. Now, he shows players how to apply those theories to actual hands in order to make smart, confident decisions with every move. Gordon walks readers through hands that he's encountered in cash games; early, middle, and late tournament play; Sit & Gos; satellites and supersatellites; and the final table of the World Series of Poker, revealing not only what plays he made but also why he made them. He relates what goes through a pro's mind in every situation, whether it's a timely bluff or a questionable call, and helps players calculate their own best moves in the most pressure-fueled of situations. In analyzing specific hands, Gordon also imparts important lessons in key poker skills such as calculating odds, shorthanded play, and discovering tells. And he discusses memorable plays -- the good and the oh-so-bad -- explaining why certain moves were made and, in many cases, how the hands should have been played differently. Insightful, witty, and filled with real-life pro secrets, Phil Gordon's Little Blue Book is required reading for every player looking to make a profit and raise his game to the next level.

Download or read book Little Texas written by Nancy Jean and published by PublishDrive. This book was released on 2022-02-14 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the fictional story of three young women who are raised on the Great Plains of eastern New Mexico during the Great Depression era and are best friends in their high school senior year when the US enters WWII. These young women already know hardship and patience; they will learn about love and loss when their childhood abruptly ends. "It can't happen here" does not save Akiko from internment with her family as enemy aliens. Thereafter, Susan's and Clovie's experiences create opportunities to learn empathy, generosity, and unbiased thinking. Little Texas gave them clean air, wide horizons, the security of a small community. But the bigoted beliefs they learned as children in Little Texas (a term given 100 years ago to New Mexico counties that border Texas) lose their authoritative influence. Susan and Clovie challenge these beliefs and boundaries. I created characters and scenarios that unveil those prevalent in 1930s-1940s Little Texas. Though this is a work of fiction, its characters and their stories are fiction, I sincerely tried to accurately represent and fairly analyze the setting. When I first learned in 2019 about the forced removal of Clovis' Japanese residents in 1942, to prison conditions at Fort Stanton, I was immediately appalled. Writing this novel helped me understand how "it could happen here".

Download or read book Tulia written by Nate Blakeslee and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2006-09-12 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This true story of race and injustice in a small west Texas town "resembles . . . a modern day To Kill a Mockingbird -- or would, that is, if the novel were a true story and Atticus had won" (New York Times Book Review) In the summer of 1999, in the tiny west Texas town of Tulia, thirty-nine people, almost all of them black, were arrested and charged with dealing powdered cocaine. At trial, the prosecution relied almost solely on the uncorroborated, and contradictory, testimony of one police officer. Despite the flimsiness of the evidence against them, virtually all of the defendants were convicted and given sentences as high as ninety-nine years. Winner of the J. Anthony Lukas prize for excellence in nonfiction, Tulia is the story of this town, the bust, the trials, and the heroic legal battle that ultimately led to the reversal of the convictions. But the story is much bigger than the tale of just one bust. As Tulia makes clear, these events are the latest chapter in a story with themes as old as the country itself. It is a gripping, marvelously well-told tale about injustice, race, poverty, hysteria, and desperation in rural America.
