Download or read book Belize and Its Identity written by Godfrey Mwakikagile and published by New Africa Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is about Belize from a historical and contemporary perspective. Once known as British Honduras, Belize is the only English-speaking country in Central America. And it's only one of two such countries in Latin America. The other one is Guyana in South America which was also once ruled by Britain. The author looks at the different racial and ethno-cultural groups which collectively constitute Belize, a country founded by British settlers and African slaves more than 300 years ago. The work is a general introduction to Belize. It's also about life in Belize and how the different groups interact with each other in this multicultural society. He examines Belize's multicultural character and identity and how members of different groups interact at different levels of national life - as individuals, as an integral part of an ethnic or cultural group, and as an integral part of the nation. How important is group identity? Is Belize a melting pot? Has it ever tried to be one if it's not one already? Are ethnic relations good or bad? How do immigrants fit in? Are there "true" Belizeans? Who is a native Belizean and who is not? How have competing claims to native status affected ethnic and racial relations? How many ethnic and racial groups are in Belize? Are there ethnic enclaves in Belize? Is Belize also an Afro-Caribbean nation although it's in Central America? Is it more black than Spanish? What is the dominant culture in Belize and why? Those are some of the subjects addressed in the book. Members of the general public including those going to Belize may find this work to be useful. It may also help some students learn a few things about the country.

Book Synopsis Belize - The Cayes by : Vivien Lougheed
Download or read book Belize - The Cayes written by Vivien Lougheed and published by Hunter Publishing, Inc. This book was released on 2010-12-17 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We travel to grow - our Adventure Guides show you how. Experience the places you visit more directly, freshly, intensely than you would otherwise - sometimes best done on foot, in a canoe, or through cultural adventures like art courses, cooking classes, learning the language, meeting the people, joining in the festivals and celebrations. This can make your trip life-changing, unforgettable. All of the detailed information you need is here about the hotels, restaurants, shopping, sightseeing. But we also lead you to new discoveries, turning corners you haven't turned before, helping you to interact with the world in new ways. That's what makes our Adventure Guides unique. The only English-speaking country in Central America, Belize is home to 500 species of birds, innumerable Maya ruins, as well as the world's second largest barrier reef. Over 80% of the land remains covered with primeval forest and 30% has been set aside as national parks/preserves. All manner of tips and recommendations for the first-time or veteran Belize traveler. Encouraging eco-travel, Vivien Lougheed profiles many of the unique archeological sites, wildlife preserves, marine sanctuaries and conservation areas. Explore firsthand Belize s myriad attractions. This guide provides detailed information on travel to Belize as a whole, but it then goes on to cover the Cayes -- the many islands offshore. Diving, snorkeling, sailing, fishing, windsurfing and sea kayaking are what most people do in Belize. Other travelers may read, tan, drink and eat seafood. For all this we head for the cayes. The cayes of Belize have the second-largest coral reef on the planet and their two atolls include some of the most challenging dive sites in the world. The area is huge, with only three cayes being densely populated. Many are uninhabited. If you want a party scene after a day playing on or in the water, then Ambergris Caye, Caye Caulker or Tobacco Caye are the places to go. If seclusion and quiet is what you seek, head to Glover's Reef or a resort on one of the privately-owned cayes. If you need adventure in the sun, go kayaking in the south. About 450 islands are bordered by 150 miles of reef that runs between 10 and 40 miles from the shoreline. The islands are of four types. There are the wet cayes that are mainly mangrove and are often partially under water. There are coral islands that are solid clumps of dead coral. The sand cayes are the most habitable. They are a combination of sand, coral and mangrove. Finally, there are three atolls - Glover's Reef, Lighthouse Reef and the Turneffe islands. "Belize holds three of the four coral atolls in the Caribbean, hosts the world's only jaguar reserve, and has the highest waterfall in Central America. The author's updated book is a tour guide helping the adventure-oriented traveler take advantage of these rare visions as she tells how to make the most of Belize, from locating a local tour to visiting backroads and less traveled areas of the country. A must for any traveler who wants to experience the outdoors of the country." -- Library Bookwatch. "As portable as they are helpful, and heavily illustrated as well, the volumes in this series remain very reliable in making certain that adventure is a major ingredient of your trip." -- Booklist. "A perennial top seller, this book overflows with tips and recommendations for the first-time or veteran Belize traveler. An eco-traveler, Lougheed pays special attention to unique archeological sites, pristine wildlife preserves and marine sanctuaries." --Advance Magazine

Book Synopsis A Man Set Free by : John Butterworth
Download or read book A Man Set Free written by John Butterworth and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiery preachers have said for ages that God can reach into the deepest depth of the dregs of society to rescue and restore even the vilest of human creatures. That seemed to pretty well define the man known to the California Prison System as Ricardo Fuentes. He grew up fast and hard in San Pedro Sula, the second largest city in Honduras, drinking and fighting his way through the teen years. When he killed a man in a late-night knife fight, Fuentes fled his native land only to find himself living behind bars of California prisons for charges of attempted murder and armed robbery after being set up by a crime partner in an act of revenge. God's faithfulness to answer the prayers of the Christian woman he'd left behind in Honduras reached through prison walls and cell bars to draw the heart of a hardened man to a new life, one that God promised would bring him before multitudes of people to testify about the work of the risen Lord Jesus Christ when he died on a cross two thousand years ago. That new life would prove to be the end of Fuentes' search for meaning. Lying in a pool of his own blood, it would also prove to be one that taught him how his victims felt when they faced danger from the muzzle end of his firearms.

After parting ways with the eponymous McAfee Antivirus software company in 1994, McAfee embarked on innumerable business, political, and criminal enterprises.

Foster tells the incomparable tale of how the two of them met, where their adventures had taken them, and what precipitated McAfee’s death.

Book excerpt: Jeff wasn't able to see the road but could tell by the sound of the car's engine that it was getting very close. Instinctively, he hugged the ground even more, trying to blend in. Only fragments of the flashlight beam were able to penetrate more than a few feet into the tangled mass of jungle. They swept past him and came back to stop at the spot where he had plunged off the road. With sweat pouring off his forehead, Jeff's tense body lay absolutely motionless. The Snake Man was so close he could hear him muttering. Finally, the man moved slowly on up the road, checking the bushes as he went. Jeff lay perfectly still for several minutes, not daring to move a muscle. Everyone's favorite fly fisherman and adventurer, Jeff Thornton, and his faithful sidekick, Trudy Garrison, are back! Come along for another exciting ride as they make their way into the tangled, dangerous jungles of Central America to take part in one of archaeology's most exciting finds ev—a rare Mayan codex.

Download or read book The Ballroom written by Simon Sobo and published by Simon Sobo. This book was released on 2021-03-05 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in the mid-19th century, The Ballroom tells a beauty-and-the-beast love story of a rich but tightfisted businessman and a poor, lovely ingénue. Vincent Van Doren is “a hard-headed, cussing, tobacco chewing man.” He quit school in the third grade because he was unable to take on his teacher who took pleasure in humiliating him. His father’s repeated foolishness kept the family poor and reduced the family’s name to a joke. Fortunately, Vincent was big and strong enough to put an end to whatever torture kids threw at him. Even at the age of 50 Van Doren still gets into fist fights, but his persistence has made him phenomenally wealthy, even if his crudeness still brings the disdain of old money New Yorkers. Along comes Belize, his nephew’s stunning French fiancé. Van Doren’s wife, Julia, saw the way Vincent’s eyes locked on Belize the first time he saw her. It was a momentary glimpse and when they formally met he was proper, but she knew her husband well. Belize’s troubled beginnings paralleled Van Doren’s. She fled to Paris at age 14 to escape her father’s mistreatment. Alone in Paris, she worked as a shop girl at Les Trois Quartiers. There she was smitten. Like other girls her age Belize longed not only to change into a person she was not and perhaps might never be. More to the point, she longed to possess and surround herself with what she would never own. Even at sixteen, after she had worked there for two years, her job wasn’t work. It was an affair with the items she sold. Van Doren is dazzled by Belize’s beauty and even more by her eye for beauty. He never considered that his life could be this rich. His ability to delight her, fulfilling her dreams, satisfies him more than anything he has ever done. His fortune and her passion produce extraordinary results. She hangs a Rembrandt, a Corot, a Delacroix in the Clarkson Ballroom of his Boston Hotel. The Metropolitan Museum of Art later asked to borrow the tapestries they brought back from France. Their collaboration creates the magical place the ballroom remains to this day. “An atmospheric … ode to the captivating power of beauty…The novella is … rich in period detail … The author’s … prose is peppered with emotion and vivid imagery, along with deft dialogue that enhances the development of his major characters… Kirkus Review “Full of delicious moments. Didn’t want it to end.” SBS “A welcome visit to a time of aspiration eloquently written. Marci S.
