Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Never trust a history lesson from an alien. First, they tend to ramble, and second, Xenonite translators aren't all that accurate. But when a Xenonite spy lands in a remote swamp of central Wisconsin, Yzarc and his crew are standing by, eager to grill it on such topics as "Is it dark in space?" and "Why, of all planets, did you choose to visit earth?" Since the alien's response was generally off topic as well as incomplete, here is told the history of our galaxy in a format that is a) concise enough to fit on your bookshelf and b) guaranteed to be at least as accurate as the universally regarded Instruction Manual for Xenonite Ciri. In this book, you will meet the characters who really mattered in ages past, including: A wise cabinet maker famed for exploding furniture. A hypochondriac ferryman lost in a swamp. A quirky yam farmer in search of adventure. Mad scientists who vanish, taking their cheese with them. An evil dictator who wants to take over the galaxy. And many more...
Book Synopsis Xenophon's Anabasis, or The Expedition of Cyrus by : Michael A. Flower
Download or read book Xenophon's Anabasis, or The Expedition of Cyrus written by Michael A. Flower and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012-06-19 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Xenophon's Anabasis, or The Expedition of Cyrus, is one of the most exciting historical narratives--as well as the most important autobiographical work--to have survived from ancient Greece. It tells the story of Cyrus, a young and charismatic Persian prince, who in 401 BC enlisted more than ten thousand Greek mercenaries in an attempt to seize the vast Persian empire for himself. Cyrus was killed in a great battle, most of the Greek commanders subsequently fell victim to treachery, and an Athenian aristocrat by the name of Xenophon found himself in the unexpected position of taking charge and leading the Greeks from the vicinity of Babylon in modern Iraq back to the Greek cities in Turkey. This book both places the Anabasis in its historical and literary context and, by employing a variety of critical methods, opens up for the reader different ways of interpreting its major themes. Interrelated chapters investigate Xenophon's self-representation as a model leader, his possible didactic and apologetic purposes for writing, the generic expectations of his contemporary audience, the factual accuracy of the Anabasis, and the ways in which the gods are depicted as intervening in human affairs. This book unveils the literary artistry and narrative strategies that have gone into shaping one of the greatest survival stories of all time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you read a book from an author who writes comedy, it’s a pretty good assumption you’re looking to laugh, not cry. Sometimes in life, though, there are far more tears than there is laughter. That’s true in the life of a comedy writer, too. In A “Very Special” Tale of Faith, Hope, & Hand Sanitizer, author Brandon Boswell writes about the personal struggles in his life. From the hilarious to the heartbreaking, Boswell strives to encourage his readers to not only trust in God, but to laugh when they can, cry when they need to, and say “I love you” to all the special people in their lives today ... because there may not be a tomorrow.

Book excerpt: Meet Dalton Moss: quick-witted, impulsive, aggressively unambitious; a halfhearted assistant to a Hollywood events planner, she has a penchant for dive bars and abusing her mother’s credit card. Meet Dalton’s boyfriend, Roman: charming, intellectual, worldly; he lands in L.A. just long enough to slip a two-carat diamond on her finger before flying right off again. Now meet Dalton’s other boyfriend, Jeremy: perfect in his imperfection, surly in his attraction to her and can match her beer for beer; she doesn’t want to love him, but can’t help herself, despite Roman—and despite Jeremy’s other girlfriend.

Book Synopsis Don’t Give up on Me by : C. Victorya Grace
Download or read book Don’t Give up on Me written by C. Victorya Grace and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2019-12-16 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Miguel walked into the house and didn’t smell the aroma of his mother’s cooking. He didn’t hear her humming as she cleaned, or his siblings playing loudly and running through the house. He stood at the door and listened for anything, any noise at all. He could not escape the feeling that something was wrong. He stood quietly and listened. Finally, he heard a plea in the kitchen, a small voice too afraid to speak louder because of what might happen if she did. Miguel knew that it was his mother and that she was in danger. He slowly moved toward the sound, his body against the cold concrete walls of his home. He knew he needed to not make a sound if he wanted to help his family. When he finally rounded the corner, the sight was horrifying. There, backed into the corner of the kitchen, was his mother crouched on the floor, cradling all seven of his brothers and sisters as they shook in horror. She was silently pleading as tears fell from her cheeks, her face wet, her dark hair sticky with blood and matted to her face. He saw the pan and what looked like oil and rice covering her bare feet. What he would remember most from that day was the terror in her eyes and plea from her lips to this man who stood over her with so much anger. She pleaded for him to leave the kids out of it, just leave her babies alone. She never understood why he did this to her. Miguel felt so much pain and anger in that moment that it blinded him, and his bravery took over. He immediately grabbed the only thing close, a butcher knife, and pointed it at the man who stood so tall and controlling over his mother—his father. He swung and attacked until his dad gave up and ran out the back open wall of the house. Miguel chased after him and screamed, “Don’t you ever come back here! We don’t need you! I am the man of this house now, and you are not welcome here!” From that moment on, he vowed to take care of his family, even if that meant leaving his home country and going to the United States of America. He had a dream, and he had a promise to keep to his family, himself, and his mom. Grace was facing something big. It wasn’t her first encounter with such a risk. She was surrounded by all her loved ones. She knew this day was coming, and she had dreaded it ever since her last doctor’s appointment. She also knew that she had to be strong for her sisters and brother. Unexpectantly, the nurse called her name. With great dread, she slowly stood, turned off her portable CD player, and lowered her headphones. She started to shake from anxiety as she went around the circle of her loved ones to hug them and tell them that she loved them. She would never forget the pain that she felt as she embraced her siblings; she couldn’t speak, couldn’t get the words out. When she finished with the goodbyes, her parents walked her into the pre-operating room to get her ready for the operation. Even when she was sedated, she still turned around on the stretcher as they wheeled her through the doors to stay looking at her mom and dad for as long as she could. Though her vision was blurry, her heart was lucid, and her emotions were high. She yearned to be anywhere but the hospital and wanted nothing more than to come back from this. They told her to count back from ten as they placed a mask that smelled like bubble gum over her face. She tried so hard to fight it but felt her eyes closing and her mind slipping away. Slowly, she counted, her eyes drooped, and she gave in. Two totally different worlds come together to form one in this novel that is based on true events. This is the love story of Miguel and Grace, one that shows a huge appreciation for life and the hardships that come with it. Love brought them together, and love will tear them apart.

Book Synopsis Communicating at the End of Life by : Elissa Foster
Download or read book Communicating at the End of Life written by Elissa Foster and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This enlightening volume provides first-hand perspectives and ethnographic research on communication at the end of life, a topic that has gone largely understudied in communication literature. Author Elissa Foster’s own experiences as a volunteer hospice caregiver form the basis of the book. Communicating at the End of Life recounts the stories of Foster and six other volunteers and their communicative experiences with dying patients, using communication theory and research findings to identify insights on the relationships they form throughout the process. What unfolds is a scholarly examination of a subject that is significant to every individual at some point in the life process. Organized chronologically to follow the course of Foster’s involvement with hospice and the phases of the study, the book opens with Part 1, providing background and contextual information to help readers understand subsequent stories about communication between volunteers and patients. Part 2 of the volume emphasizes the adjustments required by the volunteers as they entered the world of hospice and the worlds of the patients. Part 3 underscores the importance of improvisation and finding balance within the role of volunteer—in particular how to be fully present for patients as well as their family members. The volume concludes with Part 4, which addresses how volunteers coped with the death of their patients and what they learned from the experience of volunteering. Communicating at the End of Life is appropriate for scholars and advanced students studying personal relationships, health communication, gerontology, interpersonal communication, lifespan communication, and communication & aging. Its unique content offers precious and meaningful insights on the communication processes at a critical point in the life process.

Book Synopsis A Reformation Life by : David M. Whitford
Download or read book A Reformation Life written by David M. Whitford and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2015-08-28 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title presents the European Reformation as seen through the life of an important but little-known participant—Philipp of Hesse, a nobleman who became a Reformation leader in Germany. The Reformation was the most cataclysmic event in Western Christianity. An ideal resource for undergraduate history students and general readers, this title provides an accessible human narrative through the complex events of the period that many find bewildering. History comes alive and events unfold through the eyes of Philipp of Hesse, a German nobleman who ascended to becoming a key Reformation leader. The book begins with a detailed survey of the Holy Roman Empire at the turn of the 16th century and provides chronological coverage of Philipp's life and role in the Reformation through to after his death in 1567, after which Calvinism rose within the empire. The chapters document how Philipp of Hesse knew every major figure of the German Reformation; participated in every major Reformation-era imperial diet; was present at every important event in the Lutheran-dominated, foundational period of 1521 to 1555; and became a leading Lutheran prince in the Holy Roman Empire. Additionally, the work thoroughly documents the connections between religion, politics, and society and explains the important role of the German nobility in the development of the Reformation.
