Download or read book Up the Kasbah written by Tony Walton and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-11-08 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting with Oscar Wilde and André Gide in the 1890's, for the next 100 years North Africa was to be a favourite destination for gay men seeking a mixture of sea, sand, sunshine and maybe something else. This book relates the adventures and antics of those gay travellers and expats in the three countries of Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia between 1890 and 1990. Much of it is based on their own words given to us in interviews. Many of the destinations mentioned here along the north African coast were visited by either Wilde, Gide or Genet. But it is Tangier where we spend the most time, since that city was for over fifty years the Mecca of gay travellers. So as you read, imagine yourself up in the Kasbah of each of the old cities, looking down and seeing what those gays are doing down in the main part of the town. We are sure you will find something of interest.

Book excerpt: DIVDIVThe definitive collection of travel writings by one of the twentieth century’s best-loved journeyers/divDIV /divDIVFrom the moment of his birth, Lawrence Durrell was far from home. A British child in India, he was sent to England to receive an education, and by his early twenties had already tired of his native land. With family in tow, he departed for Greece, and spent the rest of his life wandering the world. He traveled not to sightsee but to live, and made homes in Egypt, France, Yugoslavia, and Argentina. Each time he landed, he rooted himself deep into the native soil, taking in not just the sights and sounds of his new land, but the essential character of the country./divDIV /divDIVIn these letters and essays, Durrell exhibits the power of poetic observation that made his travel writing so extraordinary to post–World War II readers. In these pages he reminds us not just of each country’s hidden charms, but of the unique characteristics that persist through the generations. /div/div
Book Synopsis Dukes of Duval County by : Anthony R. Carrozza
Download or read book Dukes of Duval County written by Anthony R. Carrozza and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notorious Parr family manipulated local politics in South Texas for decades. Archie Parr, his son George, and his grandson Archer relied on violence and corruption to deliver the votes that propelled their chosen candidates to office. The influence of the Parr political machine peaked during the 1948 senatorial primary, when election officials found the infamous Ballot Box 13 six days after the polls closed. That box provided a slim eighty-seven-vote lead to Lyndon B. Johnson, initiating the national political career of the future U.S. president. Dukes of Duval County begins with Archie Parr’s organization of the Mexican American electorate into a potent voting bloc, which marked the beginning of his three-decade campaign for control of every political office in Duval County and the surrounding area. Archie’s son George, who expanded the Parrs’ dominion to include jobs, welfare payments, and public works, became a county judge thanks to his father’s influence—but when George was arrested and imprisoned for accepting payoffs, only a presidential pardon advocated by then-congressman Lyndon Johnson allowed George to take office once more. Further legal misadventures haunted George and his successor, Archer, but in the end it took the combined force of local, state, and federal governments and the courageous efforts of private citizens to overthrow the Parr family. In this first comprehensive study of the Parr family’s political activities, Anthony R. Carrozza reveals the innermost workings of the Parr dynasty, a political machine that drove South Texas politics for more than seventy years and critically influenced the course of the nation.

Book Synopsis When Force Meets Fate by : Jamison Hill
Download or read book When Force Meets Fate written by Jamison Hill and published by Inkshares. This book was released on 2021-01-26 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The gripping prose in this memoir describes a young man, whose life deteriorates from a healthy fitness trainer to the sudden depths of being sick and bedridden with a mysterious illness for years. Jamison’s dedication to life, however fragile, and advocacy, however impossible, have brought out this incredible story of survival." —Stephanie Land, New York Times bestselling author of Maid: Hard Work, Low Pay, and a Mother's Will to Survive At age twenty-two, Jamison Hill was a fitness instructor and competitive bodybuilder who could lift more than four hundred pounds. Five years later, after surviving a tragic car accident that killed the other driver, a rare disease left Jamison bedridden and too weak to hold a water glass. He spent every day lying motionless in bed, his body paralyzed by pain and weakness, his mind hijacked by flashes of crunched metal, broken windshields, and exploding gas tanks. After months of being too sick to express himself, Jamison’s health began to improve along with his ability to tell his story. When Force Meets Fate is an unflinching exploration of the human condition, notably how our limitations and strengths shape our identities and how unexpected events can inevitably alter those perceptions. It’s a story of perseverance—of sheer will and unrelenting fight—but also of overcoming life’s toughest challenges through the power of vulnerability, and how freeing it can be to surrender to the unpredictability of circumstances out of our control.

Book Synopsis Jesus' Mountain by : Betty Swan Luckey
Download or read book Jesus' Mountain written by Betty Swan Luckey and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2022-07-25 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the Judds recorded “Grandpa, Tell Me ‘Bout the Good Ole Days”, our whole family began singing the title around the glowing pasture campfires, and my late cattleman husband would do just that, telling about the colorful Luckey family history, and his personal hunting, fishing and cowboy stories. Sometimes, it was, “Grandmaw, tell us another one!” when I would once again share the adventures and miracles of my lifetime, the police stories and hunting tales, my true confessions and faith in Jesus and how He’d brought me through every low valley to the joyful, victorious mountain tops! I can still see, just like it was yesterday, the glistening of the tears on their cheeks by the firelight; but much more often, it was their hysterical laughter heard echoing through the woods on smoky nightime breezes....the happiest of times, and the strongest family love we’d ever know.
Download or read book The Book of Wag written by Paul Sidey and published by Unbound Publishing. This book was released on 2016-04-07 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: South London. 1915. Wag, the eldest of twelve in the eccentric, matriarchal Bourton family, sets off for war to escape trouble at home. After returning wounded, he embarks on a seemingly quiet career as an engraver and buys a house for himself and his enigmatic sister Ethel, who filled his thoughts as he was enduring war in the trenches. Decades later, Wag’s nephew Jack is also making his way in South London. After a short spell at Cambridge and a failed attempt to make it as a film producer, he finds himself a job reporting to the notorious Richardson Gang. As Jack is drawn deeper into the sinister and sadistic gangster underworld, he discovers that his Uncle Wag’s apparently tranquil existence may not be all that it seems. Although a generation apart, their paths are about to intersect... Narrated in alternating voices by Wag and Jack, The Book of Wag is a richly woven portrait of South London at a wild, lawless time that has now passed. Part fiction and part family memoir, it draws on the handwritten, unreliable war journal by author Paul Sidey’s own uncle, and other family stories. Dramatic, funny, tender and tense, it is the story of one family’s journey through the ever-evolving landscape of 20th-century London.

Download or read book Embed written by Nick Allen and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2014-10-06 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2007, journalist Nick Allen quit a secure job in Pakistan as a news agency writer to experience the life of foreign troops fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan. Over several years he journeyed as an embedded reporter with a dozen armies, working his way through placid backwaters to remote, savage hotspots where daily clashes with insurgent forces were the norm. Driven by a desire to himself live and then convey some of the drama, tragedy, farce and sheer frustration experienced by soldiers and marines from California to Copenhagen, Allen returned again and again for 'embeds' with different contingents to explore a multinational effort that will surely define NATO's future and events in South Asia, and the world, for many years to come. No other writer managed to gain such broad access to the forty-two-country Coalition that was deployed in Afghanistan, or produce an account that carries so much of the essence of soldiering in this inhospitable environment, where extremes of climate, treachery and enemy cunning have always defeated nations that dared to wage war in the 'graveyard of empires.' Embed explores the fragile calm of Bamiyan and its ancient sites and other low-intensity regions – usually ignored but a vital part of the overall picture – together with the ferocious clashes of Helmand, Kandahar, Kunar and other provinces. The author found that even the most sophisticated armed forces had been sucked into a fight they were ill-prepared for and, amid political uncertainty and dwindling public support back home, ultimately could not win.
