Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Memorial Ride is a high-speed, ragtag chase across the American Southwest. Cooper Town, an American Indian soldier, has returned from the Middle East to attend his father's funeral, make some quick cash off his father's old Harley, and spend a whirlwind weekend with his girlfriend, Sheri Mun. However, when Coop runs afoul of the violent John Wayne gang, he and Sheri Mun have no choice but to twist the throttle back on that storied chopper and make tracks. In the spirit of Billy Jean, but fully aware of Billy Jack, Coop and Sheri Mun's race to survive is full speed ahead with many potholes in their path. Turning the traditional Western on its head, Memorial Ride recasts the genre as a road movie. It's raucous, it's violent, and, scarily enough, it might even be true.

Book Synopsis A Ride to Remember by : Sharon Langley
Download or read book A Ride to Remember written by Sharon Langley and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The true story of how a 1963 ride on a carousel in Maryland made a powerful Civil Rights statement. A Ride to Remember tells how a community came together—both black and white—to make a change. When Sharon Langley was born in the early 1960s, many amusement parks were segregated, and African-American families were not allowed entry. This book reveals how in the summer of 1963, due to demonstrations and public protests, the Gwynn Oak Amusement Park in Maryland became desegregated and opened to all for the first time. Co-author Sharon Langley was the first African-American child to ride the carousel. This was on the same day of Martin Luther King Jr.’s March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. Langley’s ride to remember demonstrated the possibilities of King’s dream. This book includes photos of Sharon on the carousel, authors’ notes, a timeline, and a bibliography. “Delivers a beautiful and tender message about equality from the very first page.” —Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review “Cooper’s richly textured illustrations evoke sepia photographs’ dreamlike combination of distance and immediacy, complementing the aura of reminiscence that permeates Langley and Nathan’s narrative.” —Publishers Weekly, Starred Review “A solid addition to U.S. history collections for its subject matter and its first-person historical narrative.” —School Library Journal

Download or read book Walker written by Christine Michelle and published by Moonlit Dreams Publications. This book was released on 2024-09-03 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WALKER: I watched her from afar, despite the fact that my MC brothers strictly prohibited me from any interaction with my ex-wife. Her life was beautiful now, the way it never could have been with me. I thought I could beat the odds, deny the truth, and hide behind my club. After Poppy, I swore I’d never do that to another woman. Then Ressa came along and couldn’t leave well enough alone. REESA My best friend married into the Aces High MC – Sierra High Chapter. I spent a lot of time hanging out with her and a bunch of bikers as a result. The club had turned over a new leaf in recent years, becoming more family oriented where they had apparently failed other members before. Members like Walker and his ex-wife, if the stories were true. Having heard those stories, you would think I would avoid the man like the plague. He was an unapologetic cheater from what they said. The fact that he walked around with his heartbreak clear in his actions spoke to me more than the stories did. He didn’t want to get involved with me. I didn’t want to give up. Something in his broken soul called to me, and mine wouldn’t rest until his could too. Note: Walker was first introduced in Redemption Weather (Aces High MC - Cedar Falls book 1) by Christine Michelle. While you don't have to read that book first, it is a good starting point to find out what happened in his past.
