Book excerpt: Now that Lightning, the colt she raised from an orphan, is back, Ann Collins sees her chance to restore her family?s acclaimed position in horse racing. Many years ago, her grandfather nearly bankrupted Stormy Hill, the Collins family thoroughbred breeding farm. Ann?s well-bred black colt is now two years old, and in her eyes, has all the makings of a champion. Ann tries to convince her father and their horse trainer, Scotty, that Lightning has what it takes to be a stakes winner. But before he can race, Lightning must overcome many obstacles, including finding a qualified rider. During the time the colt was stolen, he was mistreated by the men who took him. Now Lightning is afraid of all male riders and will only trust Ann on his back. Ann would love to be the one to ride Lightning to victory, but she lives at a time when women cannot be professional jockeys. She hopes that her friend, Ted, can ride the horse in the big race, one which no other Stormy Hill horse has ever won. Will Ann be able to ensure Stormy Hill?s Legacy in the greatest proving ground of them all, the Kentucky Derby?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ann Collins thought that winning the Kentucky Derby would fulfill her wildest dreams and that of her family. Raised all her life on Stormy Hill, a thoroughbred breeding farm located in the heart of Bluegrass Country, the shy, sheltered girl had not reckoned with facing fans or the press, avid for every detail of her life and that of her now-famous colt, Lightning. All she ever wanted was to race her colt, but suddenly she is thrown into a maelstrom from which the only answer is to continue on the path to an even bigger dream that could end with the winning of the coveted Triple Crown. Dealing with the press and the public terrifies Ann far more than racing her colt ever could. However, soon she has much more to worry about. When a nasty plot cooked up by two jealous jockeys puts one of her own in jeopardy, she realizes that love of family can come at too high a price. As she contemplates pulling out of the race, Ann wonders if Lightning will ever get the chance to prove his heritage. Stormy Hill’s Heritage is the third book of the series that began with Stormy Hill and Stormy Hill’s Legacy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a remote ranch near the Ozarks, a young girl sits glued to an ancient TV set, as the Belmont, the third leg of the Triple Crown, unfolds. Thrilled beyond belief, she witnesses history in the making as Ann Collins pilots her beautiful black colt, Stormy Lightning, to victory. But Janie Bailey experiences more than a fan’s worship of horse racing. The previous winter, during a severe snowstorm, a black colt mysteriously appeared in their back pasture. When no owner surfaced, for a brief time he was hers. Then a fateful mishap on a trail ride in the mountains sent him fleeing back into the wilderness. When the cameras pan a close-up of Ann’s champion, Janie gasps, for she knows irrevocably that her colt, Storm, and this now famous racehorse are one in the same! The idea seems so preposterous, will anyone believe her? Living so far away, how can she contact Ann to let her know about Lightning’s past? Janie has an even bigger secret. Lightning left a piece of himself behind. Earlier that year, a paint mare belonging to her family gave birth to a black and white colt, an image of his sire. Wouldn’t Ann want to hear about this, too? What will the future hold for Janie and her promising gift horse? Stormy Hill’s Gift is the fifth book in The Stormy Hill series.
Book Synopsis LEGACY OF A HERO by : Eugene Basilici
Download or read book LEGACY OF A HERO written by Eugene Basilici and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2003-11-23 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Legacy of a Hero is the remarkable story of Genio Basilici, legendary patriarch of an Italian community near Boston. In 1946, he sends his son, Enrico, to Italy to find and assist family members in the aftermath of war. Alternating with his son's search and harrowing escape from a Neapolitan street gang and his brief but passionate affair with Graciella, Genio relives his arrival in America at the turn of the century in flashbacks of memory. It was a time when virulent prejudice and constant, anti-Italian hate campaigns forced him to step forward in defense of his countrymen; the time of the Great Depression, of Sacco and Vanzetti and the anarchist movement. It was a time when a huge influx of non-English speaking immigrants flooded our cities and sparked a firestorm of resentment. It was an incendiary era when ordinary individuals rose to extraordinary heights. It was a time to remember.

Download or read book Leonardo's Legacy written by Stefan Klein and published by Da Capo Press. This book was released on 2010-04-27 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revered today as, perhaps, the greatest of Renaissance painters, Leonardo da Vinci was a scientist at heart. The artist who created the Mona Lisa also designed functioning robots and digital computers, constructed flying machines and built the first heart valve. His intuitive and ingenious approach—a new mode of thinking—linked highly diverse areas of inquiry in startling new ways and ushered in a new era. In Leonardo's Legacy, award-winning science journalist Stefan Klein deciphers the forgotten legacy of this universal genius and persuasively demonstrates that today we have much to learn from Leonardo's way of thinking. Klein sheds light on the mystery behind Leonardo's paintings, takes us through the many facets of his fascination with water, and explains the true significance of his dream of flying. It is a unique glimpse into the complex and brilliant mind of this inventor, scientist, and pioneer of a new world view, with profound consequences for our times.

Download or read book A Shared Legacy written by Fintan Cullen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Shared Legacy: Essays on Irish and Scottish Art and Visual Culture brings together for the first time a unique selection of new research by leading Irish, Scottish, English and North American scholars to explore the varying ways in which the visual can operate within the context of two countries with related experiences of lost statehood yet retained nationhood. Covering a span of three centuries, this skilfully-crafted book takes the discussion of Irish and Scottish art beyond the often isolationist approach adopted in the past, dealing directly with issues of nationality in a wider context. The authors identify national concerns through a range of themes: race, class, union and assimilation or nationalism and internationalism and while many of the essays focus on paintings, sculpture, prints and watercolours, others consider a wider notion of visual culture by investigating photography, magic lantern slides and the home arts of embroidery and textiles.

It is too late. Ye can only do yerself harm in tryin' tae interfere with this proceeding." Jamie pulled away. "But, I must save my mama " he sobbed. "The soldiers will put yer back tae the lash, as weel as hers." He seized Jamie in a tight grip and held him close. "They canna do this " came out in a hoarse whisper. "Aye, they can and they will," growled Archie. The Highlands of Scotland in 1744 roil with intrigue and hopes for a rising against the hated Hanoverian monarchy in London.

Steeped in the traditions and legends of the glorious past of his people, he experiences the coming of war to his Highland home as an adventure. The reality and suffering of war and its aftermath become all too real to young Jamie, as he and his mother flee the advancing enemy to find refuge with her family in the mountainous north.
