Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "You want to know what you're dealing with here," Lumpkin's tone became serious but very quiet. His words were barely audible as he spoke sternly about Poche. "You want to know what you're after.a pathological liar, with no morals or sense of right and wrong; pure evil. Children stop smiling when they see him, priests feel the blood freeze in their veins as he walks past, and us.the police, we pull the hammers back on our guns anytime we know he's near. He's a vicious shadow of a snake that breaks all Ten Commandments by just waking up in the morning. I know. I've had to look him in the eyes, all alone." New Orleans's famous detective, Cal Panterra, haphazardly finds himself moving too fast through a case that's had years to misleadingly create its own immunity. One that's entrenched his mind to the point he ignores his own skilled instincts. Driven with passion to resolve a case his late Chief and mentor left behind, he doesn't realize there'll be lessons to learn. When it comes to murder, the most obvious of motives can quickly change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beautifully drawn comic book inspired by Japanese manga and Indigenous art and legend This powerful story about a brave hummingbird shares a message of environmental stewardship Hummingbirds have long been a symbol of wisdom and courage. In this breathtaking book, a hummingbird makes a valiant effort to put out a raging fire that threatens her forest home. She makes many trips over the burning woodland because her tiny beak can only hold one drop of water at a time. Her efforts show the other creatures in the forest that doing something—anything—is better than doing nothing at all. Will they join her in her fight to save their home? The hummingbird parable, which originates with the Quechuan people of South America, has become a talisman for environmentalists and activists worldwide committed to making meaningful change. This retelling, enlivened by Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas’ fabulous Haida-Manga illustrations, is suitable for all ages of would-be activists. Although environmental responsibility often seems like an overwhelming task, The Flight of the Hummingbird shows how easy it is to start and how great the effect could be if everyone just did what they could.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Henry Miller's most luminous statements of his personal philosophy of life, Stand Still Like the Hummingbird, provides a symbolic title for this collection of stories and essays. Many of them have appeared only in foreign magazines while others were printed in small limited editions which have gone out of print. Miller's genius for comedy is at its best in "Money and How It Gets That Way"--a tongue-in-cheek parody of "economics" provoked by a postcard from Ezra Pound which asked if he "ever thought about money." His deep concern for the role of the artist in society appears in "An Open Letter to All and Sundry," and in "The Angel is My Watermark" he writes of his own passionate love affair with painting. "The Immorality of Morality" is an eloquent discussion of censorship. Some of the stories, such as "First Love," are autobiographical, and there are portraits of friends, such as "Patchen: Man of Anger and Light," and essays on other writers such as Walt Whitman, Thoreau, Sherwood Anderson and Ionesco. Taken together, these highly readable pieces reflect the incredible vitality and variety of interests of the writer who extended the frontiers of modern literature with Tropic of Cancer and other great books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Jim Crow world of 1920s Greenville, South Carolina, to Greenwich Village's Café Society in the '40s, to their 1974 Grammy-winning collaboration on "Loves Me Like a Rock," the Dixie Hummingbirds have been one of gospel's most durable and inspiring groups. Now, Jerry Zolten tells the Hummingbirds' fascinating story and with it the story of a changing music industry and a changing nation. When James Davis and his high-school friends starting singing together in a rural South Carolina church they could not have foreseen the road that was about to unfold before them. They began a ten-year jaunt of "wildcatting," traveling from town to town, working local radio stations, schools, and churches, struggling to make a name for themselves. By 1939 the a cappella singers were recording their four-part harmony spirituals on the prestigious Decca label. By 1942 they had moved north to Philadelphia and then New York where, backed by Lester Young's band, they regularly brought the house down at the city's first integrated nightclub, Café Society. From there the group rode a wave of popularity that would propel them to nation-wide tours, major record contracts, collaborations with Stevie Wonder and Paul Simon, and a career still vibrant today as they approach their seventy-fifth anniversary. Drawing generously on interviews with Hank Ballard, Otis Williams, and other artists who worked with the Hummingbirds, as well as with members James Davis, Ira Tucker, Howard Carroll, and many others, The Dixie Hummingbirds brings vividly to life the growth of a gospel group and of gospel music itself.

Book excerpt: This is a fascinating encyclopedia comparing the most important adaptations and evolutions in the natural world with the most important discoveries and inventions of human history. Welcome to the amazing world of adaptations, where species—including humans—develop fascinating new capabilities to ensure a competitive edge in their environment, or in some cases, survival itself. Encyclopedia of Adaptations in the Natural World is a wide-ranging catalog of the most important of those adaptations—from photosynthesis to the the peculiar "vampire"-like behavior of the tiny life form called the prion. The seven chapters in the Encyclopedia cover the key survival challenges all organisms face. Entries within those chapters cover specific adaptations from all forms of life, including animals, plants, bacteria, algae, fungi, and viruses. For each adaptation, the book also describes a related technological breakthrough in the human world, showing how engineers today study natural processes to help them develop new inventions.

Book excerpt: If you are looking beyond the ordinary for a true sense of adventure, let the mirage of animals between the covers of this book share their unique experiences with you. Once you climb on board, they will compel you into a world of primal contacts with nature that will broaden your perspective on life. As I became more absorbed in their individual encounters with nature and what each had to endure, I couldn't help but feel increasing respect for all of them. The thought occurred to me that they had a hand in writing this book as much as I did. May their discoveries become yours as well.
