Download or read book The Cellar written by Ed Jacobs and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2024-10-11 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What would you do if you were a soldier in 1916, found an enemy nurse in a Pozières cellar with constant artillery attacks and the danger of death ever present? Would you trust them not to kill you? Would you rescue them? Or leave them behind while you escaped? Many moral and ethical questions are raised by the author over the course of the book. The interactions with military bureaucrats were understandably not always friendly to a possible enemy agent from 1916 to 1918 when the book is set. Ed Jacobs has written a story based on his great uncle Martin’s role in World War 1 and using his own military experience and thorough research to imagine a war story with a complex romance. A What if...story around an Australian Staff Sergeant and a German nurse Kerstin who he rescues and becomes close to over the ensuing ordeals of injury, hardship and divided loyalties. Would it be possible to love the enemy and plan a life together and...where would that be and what obstacles would they face? The visceral horror of the trenches, constant death and destruction can be felt through vivid description and is contrasted with the beauty of a place untouched by war and a return to some sort of a normal life in France and England while Martin recovers from injury. Anyone interested in the First World War and particularly the events around Pozières will find this book of great interest. The added dimension of two people caught between opposing forces provides human interest to balance the horrors of war.

Opposing factions are at work, and both want Dave's help. There are demons to fight, both metaphorical and literal, and there are hard choices to be made, if Dave has the strength to make them. BROKEN SIGIL There are houses like this all over the world. Most people only know of them from whispered stories over campfires; tall tales told to scare the unwary. But some, those who suffer…some know better. They are drawn to the places where what ails them can be eased. If you have the will, the fortitude, you can peer into another life, where the dead are not gone, where you can see that they thrive and go on, in the dreams that stuff is made of. When a New York cop is called to investigate a murder at one such house, he is sucked in to a world he cannot fathom, cannot control, a place where past and present have no meaning, and where symbols and memories are as valid as facts and truths. The black bird is speaking, but can he afford to listen? PENTACLE There are houses like this all over the world. Most people only know of them from whispered stories over campfires; tall tales told to scare the unwary. But some—those who suffer—know better. They are drawn to these places to ease their pain. If you have the will, the fortitude, you can peer into another life, where the dead are not gone, where your love might live forever. But that’s not the case for the residents of the Edinburgh house, for something has disturbed the quiet reflection in that old building. A creature has slipped through, sniffling and snuffling in all the dark places, disrupting the balance of time and space. And it's John’s job to fix it…by any means necessary.

Book Synopsis The Boy in the Cellar by : Stephen Smith
Download or read book The Boy in the Cellar written by Stephen Smith and published by John Blake. This book was released on 2019-12-26 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stephen Smith is the boy who did not exist. Born out of wedlock in the early 1960s, Steve's parents hid him away from the world by locking him in the cellar...for thirteen years. Starved and beaten, the little boy's world was a darkened room that measured just eight feet by ten with a single makeshift bed, bare light bulb, and a solitary table. Steve would spend his days conjuring up an imaginary world full of monsters he would draw to try and block out the physical and mental torture inflicted on him by his brutal father. Apart from a few admissions to hospital as a result of his 'imprisonment', Steve remained in the coal cellar of the family home where he was deprived of daylight, his childhood, school, and human contact until he'd reached his teenage years. Eventually, he escaped only to fall prey to the instigators of two of the worst cases of institutional abuse in the UK at Aston Hall hospital and St. William's Catholic School. The Boy in the Cellar is a horrifying true story of torture and cruelty, that reveals a human's full capacity to fight for survival and search out happiness and hope.
Book Synopsis History of Iowa Wine, A: Vines on the Prairie by : John N. Peragine
Download or read book History of Iowa Wine, A: Vines on the Prairie written by John N. Peragine and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2019 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Iowa has a history with grapevines that goes back more than a century. New York lawyer Hiram Barney obtained a tract of land in southeast Iowa as part of the Half-Breed program following the American Indian Wars and created the White Elk Winery. German settlers in Amana tended community vineyards for communal wines. Before Prohibition, the Council Bluffs Grape Growers Association grew grapes and shipped them eastward by the ton. In the early 1900s, the state was among the nation's top producers of grapes. Pesticides, weather and government subsidies ended the time of the vines of the prairie until their recent return. Author John N. Peragine details the rise, fall and resurgence of the industry in the Hawkeye State.
