Book excerpt: Mitch McMasters' life appears to be ideal to those living in the quaint town of Bouvier, Missouri. As the publisher and owner of the county's most prominent newspaper, McMasters has the power and the perceived wealth to open any door to his liking. Combined with a beautiful family and a leisure filled lifestyle, Mitch McMasters appears to be living the dream. The dream life soon becomes a living nightmare when authorities in Bouvier begin to investigate a tragic car wreck, which took the life of Haley Fulz.

The Deadly News takes you through McMasters whirlwind journey from a life filled with arrogance and excessive pride to one paralyzed by a state of scared desperation.

Download or read book The Deadly Bet written by Walter LaFeber and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2005-03-11 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lyndon Johnson made a life or death bet during his Presidential term, and lost. Intent upon fighting an extended war against a determined foe, he gambled that American society could also endure a vast array of domestic reforms. The result was the turmoil of the 1968 presidential election—a crisis more severe than any since the Civil War. With thousands killed in Vietnam, hundreds dead in civil rights riots, televised chaos at the Democratic National Convention, and two major assassinations, Americans responded by voting for the law and order message of Richard Nixon. In The Deadly Bet, distinguished historian Walter LaFeber explores the turbulent election of 1968 and its significance in the larger context of American history. Looking through the eyes of the year's most important players—including Robert F. Kennedy, Eugene McCarthy, Martin Luther King, Hubert Humphrey, Richard Nixon, George Wallace, Nguyen Van Thieu, and Lyndon Johnson—LaFeber argues that the domestic upheaval had more impact on the election than the war in Vietnam. Clear, concise, and engaging, this work sheds important light on the crucial year of 1968.

Book Synopsis Deadly Justice by : Frank R. Baumgartner
Download or read book Deadly Justice written by Frank R. Baumgartner and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1976, the US Supreme Court ruled in Gregg v. Georgia that the death penalty was constitutional if it complied with certain specific provisions designed to ensure that it was reserved for the 'worst of the worst.' The same court had rejected the death penalty just four years before in the Furman decision because it found that the penalty had been applied in a capricious and arbitrary manner. The 1976 decision ushered in the 'modern' period of the US death penalty, setting the country on a course to execute over 1,400 inmates in the ensuing years, with over 8,000 individuals currently sentenced to die. Now, forty years after the decision, the eminent political scientist Frank Baumgartner along with a team of younger scholars (Marty Davidson, Kaneesha Johnson, Arvind Krishnamurthy, and Colin Wilson) have collaborated to assess the empirical record and provide a definitive account of how the death penalty has been implemented. Each chapter addresses a precise empirical question and provides evidence, not opinion, about whether how the modern death penalty has functioned. They decided to write the book after Justice Breyer issued a dissent in a 2015 death penalty case in which he asked for a full briefing on the constitutionality of the death penalty. In particular, they assess the extent to which the modern death penalty has met the aspirations of Gregg or continues to suffer from the flaws that caused its rejection in Furman. To answer this question, they provide the most comprehensive statistical account yet of the workings of the capital punishment system. Authoritative and pithy, the book is intended for both students in a wide variety of fields, researchers studying the topic, and--not least--the Supreme Court itself.
Book Synopsis Democracy's News by : G. Michael Killenberg
Download or read book Democracy's News written by G. Michael Killenberg and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2023-02-20 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the Founding, America’s faith in a democratic republic has depended on citizens who could be trusted to be communicators. Vigorous talk about equality, rights, and collaboration fueled the Revolution, the Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution with its amendments. In a republic, the people set the terms for their lives not individually, but in community. The genius of keeping it alive exists in how everyday citizens talk and listen, write and read, for a common good. Dialogue and deliberation—rather than an accumulation of individual preferences—sustains a republic, yet a diminished and scarred institution of journalism jeopardizes citizens’ access to shared and truthful information. A disturbing “what’s in it for me?” attitude has taken over many citizens, and a creeping, autocratic sense of dismissive accusation too often characterizes the political style of elected officials. The basic fuel for democracy is the willingness of informed citizens to take each other seriously as they talk about political choices. Once we begin to clam up, build walls, and dismiss each other, we unravel the threads tying us to the Founders’ vision of a republic. A free press and free speech become meaningless if not supported by sustained listening to multiple positions. There are those who profit by dividing citizens into two camps: a comfortable “us” versus a scary “them.” They make their case with accusations and often with lies. They warp the very meaning of communication, hoping citizens never truly discover each other’s humanity. Democracy’s News discusses today’s problems of public communication in the context of history, law, and interpersonal life. News should not be something to dread, mistrust, or shun. Aided by reliable, factual journalism, citizens can develop a community-based knowledge to cope with social issues great and small. They come to treat neighbors and strangers as more than stereotypes or opponents. They become collaborators with whom to identify and sustain a working republic where news, citizenship, and public discourse merge.
Book Synopsis The Deadly Intruder by : Karen E. Mosier
Download or read book The Deadly Intruder written by Karen E. Mosier and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2024-03-12 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Take me far, far away, Faster than a wink of an eye I pray, To the land where the Darach roam, To the land of the magical stones, To the peoples of the mountain, Forest, bog, hill, and river, Great Everything, bring me thither. This fantasy novel, the second in the Darach Tales series, continues the story of Golden, a young girl from the prairies who found an amulet in her late grandfather’s study and was magically transported back in time to a fantastical, alternate version of Saskatchewan in the 1500s. After finishing Grade 6, she heads back to the Darach kingdom to meet up with her dear friend and partner in adventure, Button. Golden is happy to be back, enjoying tranquil days helping him on his farm, but soon finds out that not all is well in the Darach realm. There have been a series of vicious and bloody killings by an unknown assailant, leaving the locals in a state of peril. Left alone, Golden is attacked by an enormous creature, half man, half beast. She is protected by her amulet and survives. Golden and Button are commissioned by Prince Pedr, prince of the Mountain Clan to investigate the killings in the Hills clan territory, along with their trusted companions Naed the Wise and Robert the Historian. They must do whatever it takes to figure out what monster, earthly or otherworldly, is attacking and killing these innocent Darach citizens. What’s more, the previous year’s war with the Ivarians left many people struggling and destitute, and Golden finds her heart breaking at the sight of the poor children on the streets of Raon and the surrounding villages. So many great warriors died in the Great Battle and their estates, now abandoned and in ruins, previously provided food, lodging, and wages for dozens of families. As a result, many children had no place to go and were forced into the streets to look for work or beg for food. At Button’s suggestion, Golden uses her sewing talents to help the poor and needy children in Raon and the neighbouring areas by sewing them tunics. In the meantime, new clues unfold about the deadly creature, with help from Naed the Wise and his powers of deductive reasoning, but none point to the origin of the unknown intruder. The attacks continue, all leads are followed but to no avail, when Golden stumbles upon a mysterious blue bottle. This mystical relic shows her things in the past and things to come including the identity of the lethal aggressor. Golden and her three friends jump into action to formulate a plan to kill the beast. Inspired by theories about portals to other worlds and Saskatchewan’s natural wonders, such as the Mystery Rocks outside of Cypress Hills Provincial Park, Karen began writing The Darach Tales to highlight amazing places in the province. The Deadly Intruder: A Kingdom in Terror, rich with gorgeous illustrations and Celtic mythology, is an imaginative tale about the importance of friendship and doing good for others against the backdrop of a medieval setting.
