Book excerpt: CEO Robert "Griff" Vandergrift's life-his careful, well-constructed life-is slowly beginning to unravel. His relationship with his fiancee is in the toilet and his trucking company's financial position is in jeopardy. As Griff and his business partner, Ron Bowman, fly out in a Beech Baron from California to Arizona to meet Bud Applebaum, another shareholder who now owns ten percent of the business, both are deeply concerned about the future of their company. Both, fed up with Bud's lack of straight answers and outright lies, barely make it to Tucson after their twin-engine airplane succumbs to mysterious mechanical problems. Determined to get to the bottom of their company's financial mess, Griff and Ron soon discover that Applebaum has been unscrupulous in his business dealings. Suddenly, two middle-aged, honest, and successful business owners unknowingly find themselves in the midst of a drug war waging on the border between Mexico and America, Mafia dealings, and an FBI sting. With their lives in peril, unexpected twists and turns lead Griff and Ron to a surprise ending and a new adventure."

Book excerpt: For the westerner trouble came with the territory. Long grass valleys, merciless deserts, sheer rock cliffs, icy streams, hidden trails, dusty towns. These were the proving grounds of daily life. At any time violence could explode and on the frontier there was no avoiding its sudden terrible impact. In this collection of his stories Louis L’Amour guides us to some of these untamed places where men and women faced the challenge of survival. And for the first time, L’Amour also presents a selection of riveting scenes from western history that are every bit as exciting as his stories.

Download or read book Spirit Run written by Noe Alvarez and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice, the son of working-class Mexican immigrants flees a life of labor in fruit-packing plants to run in a Native American marathon from Canada to Guatemala in this "stunning memoir that moves to the rhythm of feet, labor, and the many landscapes of the Americas" (Catriona Menzies-Pike, author of The Long Run). Growing up in Yakima, Washington, Noé Álvarez worked at an apple–packing plant alongside his mother, who “slouched over a conveyor belt of fruit, shoulder to shoulder with mothers conditioned to believe this was all they could do with their lives.” A university scholarship offered escape, but as a first–generation Latino college–goer, Álvarez struggled to fit in. At nineteen, he learned about a Native American/First Nations movement called the Peace and Dignity Journeys, epic marathons meant to renew cultural connections across North America. He dropped out of school and joined a group of Dené, Secwépemc, Gitxsan, Dakelh, Apache, Tohono O’odham, Seri, Purépecha, and Maya runners, all fleeing difficult beginnings. Telling their stories alongside his own, Álvarez writes about a four–month–long journey from Canada to Guatemala that pushed him to his limits. He writes not only of overcoming hunger, thirst, and fear—dangers included stone–throwing motorists and a mountain lion—but also of asserting Indigenous and working–class humanity in a capitalist society where oil extraction, deforestation, and substance abuse wreck communities. Running through mountains, deserts, and cities, and through the Mexican territory his parents left behind, Álvarez forges a new relationship with the land, and with the act of running, carrying with him the knowledge of his parents’ migration, and—against all odds in a society that exploits his body and rejects his spirit—the dream of a liberated future. "This book is not like any other out there. You will see this country in a fresh way, and you might see aspects of your own soul. A beautiful run." —Luís Alberto Urrea, author of The House of Broken Angels "When the son of two Mexican immigrants hears about the Peace and Dignity Journeys—'epic marathons meant to renew cultural connections across North America'—he’s compelled enough to drop out of college and sign up for one. Spirit Run is Noé Álvarez’s account of the four months he spends trekking from Canada to Guatemala alongside Native Americans representing nine tribes, all of whom are seeking brighter futures through running, self–exploration, and renewed relationships with the land they’ve traversed." —Runner's World, Best New Running Books of 2020 "An anthem to the landscape that holds our identities and traumas, and its profound power to heal them." —Francisco Cantú, author of The Line Becomes a River

Download or read book Barrio Roots written by Andrés Ávila and published by Wheatmark, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-05-01 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the vein of Alex Haley's Roots, author Andrés Ávila tells a multigenerational story of strife and ultimate success. Originating on the Mediterranean coast of Andalusia, migrating to Mexico City, and evolving in Arizona's Barrio Viejo, Barrio Roots tells the story of the author's family in a fictionalized version based on his true history. Spanning two centuries and three countries, the family's storyline traverses Spain, Mexico, and the United States. Beginning in 1814, readers are drawn into a family complete with accomplishments and failures. Dive into running a profitable sugar cane business and see the subsequent in-family corruption and disillusion of the business. Experience the trauma of the unfortunate deaths of the husbands in the family lineage. Embrace real-life historical events, such as the US expansion into the West and the Great Depression, anti-Semitism, a rigid caste system, anti-Mexican sentiment, and social mobility -- all of which the author's family experienced. At the heart of the story are the women. Their stories are of virtue, courage, and commitment in the face of overwhelming odds. Experience how they learn to establish and run a business while raising children without the help of a husband. At a time when women were considered simple, they achieved their ambitious goals, marking a rewarding conclusion to generations of family strife.
