Book Synopsis Getting off the Fence Post by : William P. Nelson
Download or read book Getting off the Fence Post written by William P. Nelson and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2022-04-27 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God has acted and Jesus has acted ... but what are we doing? Jesus wants us to act. That is one of the insights in this book of devotions that William P. “Buddy” Nelson wrote during the COVID-19 pandemic as a way to stay in touch with his faith and to reimagine the future of the church. While writing, he discovered that when living through a pandemic—or a crisis of any kind—God is there to provide a refreshed understanding of His revelation. In fact, God’s message is exactly what we all need to hear in times of personal or professional crisis. While these devotions highlight numerous topics and challenges, the overarching theme focuses on how everyday events can help us understand God’s Word. In doing so, we can learn how to face and overcome challenges with faith rather than fear. Remember when the world is at its darkest place, God challenges his children to shine the brightest!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestselling graphic memoir from actor/author/activist George Takei returns in a deluxe edition with 16 pages of bonus material! Experience the forces that shaped an American icon -- and America itself -- in this gripping tale of courage, country, loyalty, and love. George Takei has captured hearts and minds worldwide with his magnetic performances, sharp wit, and outspoken commitment to equal rights. But long before he braved new frontiers in STAR TREK, he woke up as a four-year-old boy to find his own birth country at war with his father's -- and their entire family forced from their home into an uncertain future. In 1942, at the order of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, every person of Japanese descent on the west coast was rounded up and shipped to one of ten "relocation centers," hundreds or thousands of miles from home, where they would be held for years under armed guard. THEY CALLED US ENEMY is Takei's firsthand account of those years behind barbed wire, the terrors and small joys of childhood in the shadow of legalized racism, his mother's hard choices, his father's tested faith in democracy, and the way those experiences planted the seeds for his astonishing future. What does it mean to be American? Who gets to decide? George Takei joins cowriters Justin Eisinger & Steven Scott and artist Harmony Becker for the journey of a lifetime.

Book Synopsis Thief-Taker General by : Gerald Howson
Download or read book Thief-Taker General written by Gerald Howson and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 1985-01-01 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The historical literature of political deviance is sparse. This unusual work, chronicling the history of Jonathan Wild, represents an effort to come to terms with one of the more amazing characters of English social history. Wild was both part of the policy system in eighteenth-century England, and also one of the most adroit criminals of the age. In the 1720s, London suffered the worst crime waves in its history. Civic corruption took place on a staggering scale. The government's answer was to pay a bounty for the capture of robbers, thus creating a class of professional informers. Wild was applauded as the most efficient thief hunter and gang breaker in British society; but his own posse of thief catchers was basically a front behind which he was able to control the underground world, through a complex system of blackmail, perjury, and terror which the book details. All who opposed him were betrayed to the law, and in the struggle for power Wild sacrificed several hundred of his own people to the hangman. No one since his time, with the exception of Lavrenti Beria of the late Stalin era GPU so nearly succeeded in bringing the underworld under the control of one system of power. At one level, this is a biography of the world's first supercriminal. At another, it is a sociology of criminal behavior and its political consequences. Howson sheds fresh light, not only on a figure who has become famous in literature, but more important, on the entire structure of gang life. The book is written "as a "terrifying and fascinating study of a historical epoch; it also offers a completely fresh picture of the birth of modern organized-crime families as part of modern organized political systems.
