Download or read book Seven Children of the King written by Woody Goodell and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2016-09-08 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The night before twenty-one-year-old Carly Shanahan takes her little brother and three friends on a three-day caving expedition, Sanford, the elderly eccentric owner of the cave, begins to quote quatrains written by Nostradamus. The next day, shortly after entering the cave, an earthquake traps the group inside with the old man and his notebook. Twenty miles away, a cluster of prisoners on a work release program inside a coalmine plans an escape. Just as the prisoners, led by a vicious psychopath, brutally murder two guards, the same earthquake also traps them underground. Days later, when both groups finally escape from their subterranean confinement, the world is a very different place. Is it possible Sanford is actually a conduit, prophesizing from the past? Did he somehow know that world-changing events were about to unfold? Carly must use Sanford and Nostradamuss quatrains as a guide to find a way to save her companions while also somehow preventing the extinction of mankind. She might not be prepared to play the role thrust upon her, but the fate of her friends and the world now depends on her ability to make the right decisions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nighttime is the best time for stories. And Lulu is the best storyteller. She knows about the three cross-eyed dogs at a fancy restaurant, about blue and green mountains where fish fly, about the family party where Maishel Shmelkin forgot to wear his pants and of course about the noodle woman the pointy red nose. The stories, told by a sister to her little brother, are short and sweet and make you remember things and forget things. Maira Kalman paints a wondrous and humor-filled world in a childs-eye view. It is full of wild invention, people familar and outlandish, bittersweet moments and flights of fancy.

But living in New York City isn’t so bad. Where else could he have friends like Bruno, with his invisible paintings, or Marcello, who builds upside down houses? And where else could he drop in at Baby Henry’s Candy Shop? It’s all possible in New York, a jumping jazzy city. And for Max, it’s a dog’s life that only Maira Kalman could invent.

Book Synopsis From the Mines to the Streets by : Benjamin H. Kohl
Download or read book From the Mines to the Streets written by Benjamin H. Kohl and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Mines to the Streets draws on the life of Félix Muruchi to depict the greater forces at play in Bolivia and elsewhere in South America during the last half of the twentieth century. It traces Félix from his birth in an indigenous family in 1946, just after the abolition of bonded labor, through the next sixty years of Bolivia's turbulent history. As a teenager, Félix followed his father into the tin mines before serving a compulsory year in the military, during which he witnessed the 1964 coup d'état that plunged the country into eighteen years of military rule. He returned to work in the mines, where he quickly rose to become a union leader. The reward for his activism was imprisonment, torture, and exile. After he came home, he participated actively in the struggles against neoliberal governments, which led in 2006—the year of his sixtieth birthday—to the inauguration of Evo Morales as Bolivia's first indigenous president. The authors weave Muruchi's compelling recollections with contextual commentary that elucidates Bolivian history. The combination of an unforgettable life story and in-depth text boxes makes this a gripping, effective account, destined to become a classic sourcebook.

Download or read book In The Service Of God and Evil written by Donald Britton Conrad and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-02-18 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the conclusion of the dinner, Chancellor Theobald Bethmann-Hollweg opened the congratulatory part of the program with a toast to His Imperial and Royal Majesty Wilhelm II Hohenzollern, by the Grace of God, German Emperor and King of Prussia. We, the assembled here, renew our faith in a man so various that he seems guided by the Grace and hand of God. Long live our Emperor!” “Hoch! Hoch! Hoch!” exclaimed the guests, each one clinking his neighbors’ wine glass. “Due to the long list of tonight’s speakers, it has been agreed that each personage will limit their speeches to five minutes. At the end of the ceremonies, guests are welcome to view the many gifts presented to His Majesty in honor of his twenty-fifth anniversary.” “With His Majesty’s permission, I wish to present Herr Andrew Carnegie from America. Herr Carnegie, a Scottish-born American is an industrialist turned philanthropist. As is well known worldwide, he built Pittsburgh’s Carnegie Steel Company. With his fortune made, the man of humble beginnings turned to philanthropy with special interests in education.” “With unselfish thoughts, he founded the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. From his adopted Pennsylvania home, he endowed the Carnegie University and Carnegie museums. Over the years, his generosity led to the establishment of many libraries, schools, and universities in America.” “In spite of his busy daily schedule, Andrew Carnegie found time to write several books, including the well received ‘Gospel of Wealth, and dozens of magazine and newspaper articles.” ‘It is with great pleasure that I offer the podium to Herr Andrew Carnegie.” “Thank you, Chancellor Bethmann-Hollweg.” The Chancellor who stood a foot higher than the American bent forward to shake Carnegie’s hand which led to a titter among the audience. After spreading his notepaper on the lectern, the philanthropist turned to the Emperor. “Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for inviting me here today.” Wilhelm nodded several times exposing a broad grin. Carnegie’s carefully trimmed white beard glowed under a dozen closely placed incandescent lights. The audience saw a kindly, old man’s face that looked more like a favorite uncle that a millionaire. “I bring greetings and congratulations to His Majesty from the great metropolis of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania populated by a half-million German descendents.” His voice revealed a hint of Scottish burr. “The world’s greatest steel producing center lies between the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers that join to create the great Ohio River that opened the West to adventurous Americans.” “At the time Germany was unified in 1871, Pittsburgh was a village of 75,000 inhabitants. Today, it is a thriving metropolis, the fifth largest city in the United States. It was steel that created work for thousands of families. Steel provided them with schools, hospitals, fine roads and tall buildings.” “At the same time we learned that Berlin was on a parallel growth pattern. I believe that such growth is the result of peace throughout both lands. We can all agree that war is absent as economic growth brings full bellies and general happiness to the people.” The audience shouted, “Hoch! Hoch! Hoch!” “I want to share with you a secret I’ve kept for many years. I am not only an industrialist, I am a preacher.” The audience fell silent awaiting an explanation from the diminutive elder. “Yes, dear friends I am a preacher, but a very special type. I preach peace. I preach the peace that our Lord Jesus Christ desired for all mankind. As I turn and face his Majesty Wilhelm II, I see a man who also preaches peace for the world.” “When I first met the Emperor a decade ago, he told me that Europe is too small to be divided into so many small states. He said that he had long considered a plan for a federation of Europe. I asked him what such a scheme would accomplish.
Download or read book A Way Up written by Paula Engborg and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2023-05-04 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There’s a Seattle urban legend about something rare and unusual in the snow at 14,000 feet — not a Sasquatch but a booted, nude woman atop Mt. Rainier. This is the story behind the legend. Paula Engborg is an energetic, 41-year-old divorced mom in search of Prince Charming when one day she finds a new sport: The Climb. Paula has barely ascended a stepladder, so why the desire to climb mountains? Unlike other books about climbing, A WAY UP isn’t about the highest mountains, famous climbers, or exotic locations. Instead, it’s the experiences of the feisty author, who, in middle-aged, finds a new rush. Here, the mountains in the Pacific NW and rock walls in the Southwest come alive. You’ll feel the bitter cold, the rigours of training, and share Paula’s dream of making it to the top. Along the way this self-proclaimed “climb-aholic” defies the odds to become a member of Mountain Rescue, makes and breaks friends, and falls in love with Clint, a man with a penchant for motorcycle rallies. Paula’s story is a literal tale of hard knocks, told with warmth and unflinching detail.
