Book Synopsis The Liar School of Herodotos by : W.K. Pritchett
Download or read book The Liar School of Herodotos written by W.K. Pritchett and published by BRILL. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professor Pritchett, questioning the patron-izing and dismissive tone which a group of scholars has reserved for Herodotos, devotes his attention to four works of the past decade which have to do with Herodotos' source-citations, his epigraphical listings, his record for Scythia, and the treatment of the topography of Thermopylai by a geomorphological survey team, as well as some miscellaneous writings. His procedure is to take up passage by passage the examples where Herodotos has been charged with falsification in an effort to show that there exists in the literature evidence which mutes the allegations. He concludes with sections on a general appraisal of Herodotos by specialists and a discussion of Herodotos' audience. The monograph is of general interest to students of Greek historiography. There is an index of the Herodotean passages which are scrutinized.
Book Synopsis All Fishermen Are Liars by : John Gierach
Download or read book All Fishermen Are Liars written by John Gierach and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For John Gierach, fishing is always the answer-even when it's not clear what the question is. He's fished for steelhead in the Pacific Northwest, bull trout in British Columbia, bonefish in Mexico, and pike in the Upper Midwest. He's even tried winter fly-fishing and braved the remote Alaskan wilderness. Through it all, he has nurtured his enduring love for the sport. In All Fisherman Are Liars, the ever-popular Gierach shares insights, musings, and countless stories from the profound to the funny to the downright absurd that he's collected over a lifetime of fishing. Traveling around North America, Gierach seeks out great fishing experiences with one goal in mind: to have a good time and maybe catch some fish. He talks about fashion in flies and fly-tying, about the mysteries of why certain flies work, and about the etiquette of fishing a popular spot. He reflects on how it feels to approach a new stream, acting nonchalant while experiencing intense excitement and anticipation. He also muses about fishing rods: "Although I own enough rods to build a picket fence around my property, I can sometimes be convinced that I need just one more." And though Gierach loses some fish along the way, he never loses his passion and sense of humour. Wry, contemplative, and as lively as ever, Gierach gives us a book as edifying as it is entertaining. All Fishermen Are Liars is a joy to read-and, as always, the next best thing to fishing itself.
Book Synopsis My Health Is Better in November by : Havilah Babcock
Download or read book My Health Is Better in November written by Havilah Babcock and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2020-05-07 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the early part of the twentieth century, Havilah Babcock hunted and wrote these and many other delightful sporting essays. In those years bird hunting was a social activity as well as a field sport. My Health Is Better in November, first published by the University of South Carolina Press in 1947, has remained popular primarily because Bobcock's stories describe the camaraderie of the hunt, bringing it to life. Readers can imagine themselves in the field, watching the dogs on point near an overgrown fence row. In recent decades hunting has become a more solitary pursuit, leaving many longing for the good old days. In these pages you will find that lost fellowship along with a bit of humor that will delight and amuse even those who have never shouldered a gun or cast a fly.

Raised on her father’s South Carolina plantation, Callie Parker wanted for nothing, and now she is about to marry wealthy local scion Wyn Archer. But her wedding wouldn’t be complete without the three people she grew up with under the sheltering branches of the angel oaks at Parker Manor. There’s Bode Jessup, part brother and part idol, who has become a wildly attractive man. Next is Brie Canfield, Callie’s freckle-faced playmate, now an FBI agent with a life of her own. Last is shy waif Sela Bronson, whose only reason for returning to Parker Manor is to escape an unhappy marriage. As Callie’s childhood companions gather to relive the charmed years they spent together, they discover how little they know of their beloved yesterday . . . and how one woman’s darkest secret can tear them apart.

Book excerpt: A fresh new take on Agatha Christie’s classic murder mystery The Mysterious Affair at Styles, with iconic detective Hercule Poirot recast as a brilliant, brash teen girl named Holiday, and narrated by her childhood friend Linden, an athlete-scholar who fits right in at his elite New England prep school—all the while hiding some secrets of his own. Michael Linden—or just Linden to his preppy boarding school pals—doesn’t belong in wealthy, storied Martha’s Vineyard. But when his roommate Jasper invites him to spend the end of summer at his massive beachfront home, August House, Linden tries his best to fit in. Linden wouldn’t call it lying, exactly. Though it turns out August House is full of liars. Then someone is found unconscious in Jasper’s pool, and everyone has something to hide—Jasper, his beautiful sister Eliza, their older brother Wells, and their friends. The accident is written off as just that—an accident—but Linden begins to wonder... Enter: Holiday Proctor. Linden’s childhood friend, and the one person on the island who knows the truth about Linden. There’s nothing Holiday loves more than a good old-fashioned mystery and she’s convinced there's a potential killer on the Vineyard. The only question is…who?

Book excerpt: From acclaimed author and screenwriter Derek Haas comes a unique and thrilling twist on a family story—what happens when an elite assassin becomes a father? Now a new dad, the infamous Silver Bear finds himself staying up late to give a bottle and changing diapers—all while leading the double life of a contract killer. The struggle is not with his conscience. He enjoys his gig. But a child forces him to weigh selfishness versus safety. Continue in his line of work, and he’ll always wonder if he's putting his child’s life at risk. When the next assignment comes, both Columbus and his partner Risina are surprised to find that the mark is another assassin: a brash, young man named Castillo. An assassin on the rise, he’s responsible for slaying a high profile CEO. As Columbus closes in on his target, he realizes that Castillo is a younger version of himself. It's almost like looking in a mirror. Castillo has even studied Columbus' work. Yet as much as Columbus sees himself in this young man, his assignment is clear. Then, Castillo learns that his hero and unwitting mentor has a family—a revelation with enormous ramifications. Now that he knows Columbus’s weakness, he will go after it and exploit it. Just as Columbus would have done...
Book Synopsis The Day of the Lie by : William Brodrick
Download or read book The Day of the Lie written by William Brodrick and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2017-03-28 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sleuthing monk travels to Poland to investigate a decades-old betrayal in this “dense, complex [and] fascinating” mystery (Publishers Weekly). Anselm Duffy was a brilliant criminal lawyer before he became a monk who probes the intersection of murderous deeds and moral questions. In The Day of the Lie, Father Anselm receives a visit from an old friend who needs his help with a deadly mystery—one that reaches back to Warsaw during the icy grip of the Cold War. As a young woman, Roza Mojeska was part of an underground resistance group in Communist Poland. Betrayed by someone close to her—someone still unknown—she was sent to a government prison and forced to make a terrible choice that haunts her to this day. Now, Father Anselm peels back decades of secrets and lies to expose a truth that both victim and torturer would keep hidden. A perceptive examination of guilt and redemption, The Day of the Lie is a gripping, intricate mystery. “Reminiscent of the early works of John le Carré . . . blending sharp suspense and literary resonance.” —Jeffrey Deaver
