Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • In suburban Georgetown a killer's Reeboks whisper on the front floor of a posh home... In a seedy D.C. porno house a patron is swiftly garroted to death... The next day America learns that two of its Supreme Court justices have been assassinated. And in New Orleans, a young law student prepares a legal brief... To Darby Shaw it was no more than a legal shot in the dark, a brilliant guess. To the Washington establishment it was political dynamite. Suddenly Darby is witness to a murder—a murder intended for her. Going underground, she finds there is only one person she can trust—an ambitious reporter after a newsbreak hotter than Watergate—to help her piece together the deadly puzzle. Somewhere between the bayous of Louisiana and the White House's inner sanctums, a violent cover-up is being engineered. For someone has read Darby's brief. Someone who will stop at nothing to destroy the evidence of an unthinkable crime. Don’t miss John Grisham’s new book, THE EXCHANGE: AFTER THE FIRM, coming soon!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn about: • An opossum who enjoyed X-rated movies. • A canine thief with an appetite for eggs. • A man who lost out on $38,000 in valuable pearls because he liked his oysters cooked instead of raw. • Strange events and creatures off the California coast. • A recipe for Pius IV’s favorite dish — frog livers. • A statewide event where California school children were asked to kill as many ground squirrels as possible, verifying their kills by bringing the tails to school! These are but a few of the stories largely centered around Long Beach, California, which have appeared over the past 130 years. Most have remained forgotten, until now. How much is true and how much “tongue in cheek” I will leave up to the reader to decide. In any case, they are they are fun, humorous and sure to entertain.

Download or read book Oxford Classics written by and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-12-12 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oxford, the home of lost causes, the epitome of the world of medieval and renaissance learning in Britain, has always fascinated at a variety of levels: social, institutional, cultural. Its rival, Cambridge, was long dominated by mathematics, while Oxford's leading study was Classics. In this pioneering book, 16 leading authorities explore a variety of aspects of Oxford Classics in the last two hundred years: curriculum, teaching and learning, scholarly style, publishing, gender and social exclusion and the impact of German scholarship. Greats (Literae Humaniores) is the most celebrated classical course in the world: here its early days in the mid-19th century and its reform in the late 20th are discussed, in the latter case by those intimately involved with the reforms. An opening chapter sets the scene by comparing Oxford with Cambridge Classics, and several old favourites are revisited, including such familiar Oxford products as Liddell and Scott's "Greek-English Lexicon", the "Oxford Classical Texts", and Zimmern's "Greek Commonwealth". The book as a whole offers a pioneering, wide-ranging survey of Classics in Oxford.

Download or read book An Oxford College at War written by Alex Bostrom and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: World War One changed the course of history. And not only on a global scale as borders shifted and battles raged, but on a local level, when sons failed to return home, and whole villages were emptied of their young men. Oxford was no exception. Many of its young scholars left the dreaming spires to become junior officers, with 170 joining the local Oxford and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry Regiment before the end of 1914. University buildings were turned from places of study into hospitals and cadet training centres. No college was left untouched. An Oxford College at War is the story of one college's experience of the war: Corpus Christi, one of the smallest and oldest Oxford colleges, lost a number of its students. Based on the moving accounts contained in the College Roll of Honour of those who fell in the Great War, this book looks not only at students' deaths, but also at the role of Corpus - as an exemplar Oxford College - in the War, and the wider role played by the University. From those fighting on the front and on the home front, to the aftermath of the War for survivors and those left behind, An Oxford College at War provides an unparalleled insight into the extraordinary bravery and everyday courage of citizens and students alike.

Download or read book History of Universities written by Mordechai Feingold and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-21 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This issue of History of Universities, Volume XXXII / 1-2, contains the customary mix of learned articles and book reviews which makes this publication such an indispensable tool for the historian of higher education. Guest edited by Professor John Watts, this volume focuses on the history of Corpus Christi College, Oxford. Corpus Christi College, Oxford was founded in 1517 to advance humanistic learning in the service of God. This collection of essays by some of the leading historians of late medieval and early modern England takes the early history of the College as a starting point to explore the intellectual, social, religious, political, and cultural trends of the era of Renaissance and Reformation. Ranging from the fifteenth century to the seventeenth, and taking in the study of Greek and Hebrew; the practices of antiquarianism, charity, and divine worship; the experience of music, punishment, and the built environment; the networks that connected the college to London and the government; and the interactions of scholars with royal policy on religion, these fifteen essays and three commentaries aim to expose the multiple perspectives from which an early modern college can be viewed and understood. The relationship between 'Renaissance' and 'Reformation', and the social and cultural realities that accompanied these familiar concepts, form one central theme in the papers; the relationship between religious or educational institutions and the state form another. Corpus Christi itself emerges as less innovative than its historic reputation as the first collegium trilingue might suggest, but it becomes the gateway to a richer appreciation of the overlapping worlds of learning, religion and public life in a time of rapid change.

Download or read book Pelican written by Barbara Allen and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With its distinctive, comical walk, large bill, and association with the conservation movement, the pelican has attained iconic status. But as Barbara Allen reveals, this graceful skimmer of ocean waves has a checkered history. Originally classed as “unclean” in the King James Bible, the legend of the compassionate pelican was later appropriated by Christianity to symbolize Christ’s sacrifice. This majestic bird, gifted to British royalty in 1664, has been celebrated in art and literature, from Shakespeare’s King Lear to the writing of Edward Lear, and is the holder of three Guinness World Records. The pelican’s anatomy has been copied for paper plane construction, aircraft design, and in 3D imaging, and its resilience is as remarkable as its make-up: the pelican has rallied against threats of extinction, habitat destruction, and environmental disasters such as the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. A must-read book for all bird enthusiasts, Barbara Allen’s Pelican weaves together wildlife trivia, historical tales, and the latest research to provide an engaging, many-feathered account of this emblematic bird.

Book excerpt: Come celebrate a town, Klamath Falls, Oregon—official population 18,538 (people, that is—the cows you will have to count yourself)! Join the author in a homespun journey through the past in a town that is the epitome of all hometowns. Located on a route that is the shortest distance between Los Angeles and Seattle, this town seems inocuous enough, however, a peak beneath its exterior reveals enough oddities, quirks and interesting characters to fuel the tabloids for centuries. This rendering of the author's memoirs offers shameless name-dropping of well-known personalities, recounts of events that have local, near-legandary status (among those involved at least) and some actual history that didn't quite make it into the history books. Fade into the past to an era devoid of terms such as "Duuuude", "Sweeeeet", and "Da Bomb!" Words that will characterize this world are more like "Golly", "Gosh", "Gee Whiz", and "Shucky-Darn." Let a mildly embarrassed pelican guide you on this tongue-in-cheek and often, ironic visit to a place that isn't too far from everyone's growing up experience.
