Book Synopsis No Villains, No Heroes by : Thomas Moore
Download or read book No Villains, No Heroes written by Thomas Moore and published by Abbott Press. This book was released on 2012-03-12 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NO VILLAINS, NO HEROES is a moving historical novel of the 1912 Hillsville Massacre, the most shocking crime in the state of Virginia, and a cautionary tale for our own time about the true meaning of law and justice. No Villains, No Heroes dramatizes a shocking episode in Virginia history. In March 1912 Floyd Allen was convicted of assault in Carroll County, in Virginias Blue Ridge. When he announced, Gentlemen, I aint a-goin, a gun battle erupted in the crowded courtroom between law officers and the Allen clan. Five people were killed; seven wounded. Floyd and his young son Claude were executed a year later. Other Allens served long prison sentences. But who were the villains? Who were the heroes? In this moving historical novel, the narrator, a detective called in to hunt down the fugitives, grapples with these perplexing questions and the true meaning of law and justice. This exciting novel tells the story of a once-famous but now largely forgotten episode in Virginia history, the Hillsville Massacre of March 1912, recalled in vivid detail by Carter Hayne, a private lawman on the scene. His experience is so transforming that it turns him into a crusading lawyer who dedicates his life to advancing criminal justice. It effortlessly recreates an age and place, pre-modern America 100 years ago in the Blue Ridge Mountains, the setting for an event so complex and weighty, even primal, that it is, as Hayne says, just like a Greek tragedy. Kirkpatrick Sale, author of 12 books, including The Fire of His Genius: Robert Fulton and the American Dream.

Book excerpt: Queen Mab has a heart of ice. To save my son, mine has to be colder. The Winter Court is no place for humans… or half-humans. But my son is trapped here, at the mercy of Queen Mab, and I intend to survive long enough to get him out. Even if that means killing off every ounce of human compassion in my heart to embrace the ruthless fae within. And Mab isn’t the only threat out here. I’m about to come face to face with the enemy who has been watching me from the beginning. I thought I understood what Arkanica was all about, but I was wrong. And if I don’t stop what’s coming, everyone will face the consequences—the Winter Court, the Summer Court, and all of humanity.
Book Synopsis No Heroes, No Monsters by : Anna Ardin
Download or read book No Heroes, No Monsters written by Anna Ardin and published by BoD - Books on Demand. This book was released on 2024-04-05 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No Heroes, No Monsters focuses on the dramatic struggle of Anna Ardin, the WikiLeaks activist who, in 2010, came forward to report sexual abuse by Julian Assange. This is her testimony to a legal trial that was replaced by an Internet tribunal. A tribunal where women's rights are all too often both neglected and weaponized. A tribunal that every day of the year chooses a new woman to be the most hated. The book goes beyond the headlines - the black and white pictures of heroes or monsters - and emphasizes the need to acknowledge the shades of gray. In the book Ardin navigates through her personal life, the sexual assault charges, the media frenzy and the extensive hatred that followed from accusing a popular man, as well as through the unfair accusations of Chelsea Manning and WikiLeaks. Ardin's story is a call for justice for everyone abused, holding even important people accountable. It's a powerful compilation of the feminist lessons Ardin learned from living, for over a decade, in the shadow of the "hero" myth.

Book Synopsis A Sequential Sojourn: Visualizing the Quest of the Archetypal Hero by : Susan R. Woodward
Download or read book A Sequential Sojourn: Visualizing the Quest of the Archetypal Hero written by Susan R. Woodward and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2009-01-13 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sequential Sojourn is an effort to draw people of various nations, cultures, ages, and genders together to examine the things that make us similar. So much effort is spent on diversity (which is a good thing, don't get me wrong) that we are more conscious of how we are different from one another than of how we are alike. With a bit of tolerance, perhaps finding the hero within can help create positive change in this troubled world.

Book Synopsis The Poet-Hero in the Work of Byron and Shelley by : Madeleine Callaghan
Download or read book The Poet-Hero in the Work of Byron and Shelley written by Madeleine Callaghan and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2019-02-28 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Byron’s and Shelley’s experimentation with the possibilities and pitfalls of poetic heroism unites their work. The Poet-Hero in the Work of Byron and Shelley traces the evolution of the poet-hero in the work of both poets, revealing that the struggle to find words adequate to the poet’s imaginative vision and historical circumstance is their central poetic achievement. Madeleine Callaghan explores the different types of poetic heroism that evolve in Byron’s and Shelley’s poetry and drama. Both poets experiment with, challenge and embrace a variety of poetic forms and genres, and this book discusses such generic exploration in the light of their developing versions of the poet-hero. The heroism of the poet, as an idea, an ideal and an illusion, undergoes many different incarnations and definitions as both poets shape distinctive and changing conceptions of the hero throughout their careers.
