Download or read book Luck in Little Joe written by Rose Green and published by Rose Green. This book was released on 2024-05-01 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Connors used to be lucky. People came from miles around to stay in their hotel and bask in the light of its luck-granting chandelier. But the family feuded over who would inherit the chandelier, and when Great-grandpa Edmonton died, it, too, was lost. Ever since that day, the Connors’ luck became a curse. For twelve-year-old Shiloh Connor’s family, this means having to move every year, and never getting to stay in a forever home. It means unexpected allergic reactions, like rashes around the color yellow, or bad spelling after eating cranberries. Worst of all, Shiloh herself is gradually becoming invisible. When word reaches them that the chandelier has been sighted, Shiloh sees her chance to lift the curse and get the luck back. That is—unless her no-good cousins get to it first. (For ages 9-12)

Download or read book Chicago Heights written by Charles Hager and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 2018-07-12 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner, ISHS Best of Illinois History Award, 2019 In this riveting true story of coming of age in the Chicago Mob, Charles “Charley” Hager is plucked from his rural West Virginia home by an uncle in the 1960s and thrown into an underworld of money, cars, crime, and murder on the streets of Chicago Heights. Street-smart and good with his hands, Hager is accepted into the working life of a chauffeur and “street tax” collector, earning the moniker “Little Joe College” by notorious mob boss Albert Tocco. But when his childhood friend is gunned down by a hit man, Hager finds himself a bit player in the events surrounding the mysterious, and yet unsolved, murder of mafia chief Sam Giancana. Chicago Heights is part rags-to-riches story, part murder mystery, and part redemption tale. Hager, with author David T. Miller, juxtaposes his early years in West Virginia with his life in crime, intricately weaving his own experiences into the fabric of mob life, its many characters, and the murder of Giancana. Fueled by vivid recollections of turf wars and chop shops, of fix-ridden harness racing and the turbulent politics of the 1960s, Chicago Heights reveals similarities between high-level organized crime in the city and the corrupt lawlessness of Appalachia. Hager candidly reveals how he got caught up in a criminal life, what it cost him, and how he rebuilt his life back in West Virginia with a prison record. Based on interviews with Hager and supplemented by additional interviews and extensive research by Miller, the book also adds Hager’s unique voice to the volumes of speculation about Giancana’s murder, offering a plausible theory of what happened on that June night in 1975.

Book excerpt: Chris Perez tells the story of his relationship with music superstar Selena in this heartfelt tribute. One of the most compelling and adored superstars in Latin music history, Selena was nothing short of a phenomenon who shared all of herself with her millions of devoted fans. Her tragic murder, at the age of twenty-three, stripped the world of her talent and boundless potential, her tightly-knit family of their beloved angel, and her husband, Chris Perez, of the greatest love he had ever known. For over a decade, Chris held onto the only personal thing he had left from his late wife—the touching and sometimes painful memories of their very private bond. Now, for the first time, Chris opens up about their unbreakable friendship, their forbidden relationship, and their blossoming marriage that was cut short. Chris’s powerful story gives a rare glimpse into Selena’s sincerity and vulnerability when falling in love, strength and conviction when fighting for that love, and absolute resilience when finding peace and normalcy with her family’s acceptance of the only man she called her husband. While showcasing a side of Selena that has never been disclosed before and clarifying certain misconceptions about her life and death, To Selena, with Love is an everlasting love story that immortalizes the heart and soul of an extraordinary, unforgettable, and irreplaceable icon. This commemorative edition includes photos and a special chapter detailing the author’s reflection since writing the book.

Book Synopsis Joe Gould's Secret by : Joseph Mitchell
Download or read book Joe Gould's Secret written by Joseph Mitchell and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2016-01-26 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of a notorious New York eccentric and the journalist who chronicled his life: “A little masterpiece of observation and storytelling” (Ian McEwan). Joseph Mitchell was a cornerstone of the New Yorker staff for decades, but his prolific career was shattered by an extraordinary case of writer’s block. For the final thirty-two years of his life, Mitchell published nothing. And the key to his silence may lie in his last major work: the biography of a supposed Harvard grad turned Greenwich Village tramp named Joe Gould. Gould was, in Mitchell’s words, “an odd and penniless and unemployable little man who came to this city in 1916 and ducked and dodged and held on as hard as he could for over thirty-five years.” As Mitchell learns more about Gould’s epic Oral History—a reputedly nine-million-word collection of philosophizing, wanderings, and hearsay—he eventually uncovers a secret that adds even more intrigue to the already unusual story of the local legend. Originally written as two separate pieces (“Professor Sea Gull” in 1942 and then “Joe Gould’s Secret” twenty-two years later), this magnum opus captures Mitchell at his peak. As the reader comes to understand Gould’s secret, Mitchell’s words become all the more haunting. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Joseph Mitchell including rare images from the author’s estate.

Download or read book Field Mice written by Emma Gonzalez and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-18 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emma's memories from age 5 to 15 allow us to share the ups and downs, the joys, the sadness, of the migrant life in the U.S. in late 1950s and 60s, through the eyes of a child. Her gifted use of imagery allows us to experience snippets of her life. Her later in life writing career was inspired by the Blessed Mother Teresa who guided her to write. American born Emma Gonzalez was trapped in the nomadic lifestyle which spiraled downward economically during those ten years. She was dragged from Ovid, Colorado to Texas. Ironically, her stability was in Ovid where her teachers, classmates, and the town "adopted" this lost migrant kid. Moving was a way of life for her naturalized migrant American family. Emma tells in short, vivid vignettes of her struggles to overcome the pressures to keep her as insignificant as the field mice she played with to persevere, educate herself, to succeed in multiple business ventures, finally discovering her calling in the criminal justice system advocating and assisting victims of crime. The only child of the later in life marriage, decades younger than her half siblings, Emma was an after thought, an encumbrance, something to be left at the edge of the field all day and picked up they went home. Yet, Emma had hope, symbolized by the wearing of her pearls, she focusing on a better life. She learned "your family doesn't provide a better life for you; you have to go out and make it yourself." These vignettes illustrate her strength of character, her determination for HER life. She used the family's Green Stamps, not for toys nor games, but for books. From these books she learned about other countries that were far beyond her reach. A whole world existed beyond the migrant life. She developed a sense of adventure and now loves to travel to these far off places. Emma's joy in her life is her husband and family. IN HER NEXT BOOK, "PATHS OF PEARLS," Emma writes about her life after migrating. From age 15 she struggled to shoulder the financial burdens after her father's death, to support her mother and herself, while pursuing her education. After 50 years, she travelled to Ovid, Colorado to revisit her childhood places and reunited with childhood friends and neighbors. She will share stories of other migrant children that overcame similar obstacles.

His path is by no means smooth as he maneuvers through racism, hidden agendas, unsettling self-discovery, life-threatening travel adventures, culture shock, the death of a loved one, and the challenges of friendship, family, and love. All along, he learns to views his life path through the lens of God’s faithfulness.
