Download or read book Poor Boy from West Virginia written by Jack Brannon and published by Publishamerica Incorporated. This book was released on 2006-02-01 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a true accounting of my growing up very poor in a poor state. It tells how we managed to survive times when we did not have enough to eat or enough clothes on our backs to really keep warm in winter. It shows the great fun we had with literally nothing. If we had a toy, you can bet it was homemade or a discard found in the town dumpmostly homemade because there werent people with enough money to throw anything away until it was completely worn out or broken. Things got a little better when some of my older brothers and a sister were married and left home to start their own families, but we still did not have as much as some kids had. The puzzling thing is, I dont remember suffering or being envious from this sometime lack of basic necessities. We were having too much fun to even notice.

Book excerpt: An impressive contribution to the annals of 20th Century American Political History, West Virginia Tough Boys: Vote Buying, Fist Fighting, And A President Named JFK by journalist F. Keith Davis is an amazing collection of reminiscences of West Virginia political kingpins and civic leaders during the heady 1960s.

Download or read book A Poor Boy’S Odyssey written by Joe White and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2014-06-20 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a memoir about my ninety-three years on this earth and the good luck I have had. It borrows from previous self-published memoirs about growing up on a farm during the depression of the 1930s, about real estate investments, and about a career in governmental service. That started with an entry grade of GS-6 trainee in the Border Patrol and ended with retirement twenty-one years later in grade GS-15. After retirement I was executive assistant to the CEO of the National Rifle Association, followed by two years as Deputy Executive Vice President (CEO) Good luck was a major factor in my success, but the luck was helped by the capacity for hard work developed on the farm as a teenager. Other factors in my successes were my natural ability for pistol marksmanship and my experience as an airplane pilot in World War II.

Download or read book The Price of Justice written by Laurence Leamer and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A nonfiction legal thriller that traces the fourteen-year struggle of two lawyers to bring the most powerful coal baron in American history, Don Blankenship, to justice Don Blankenship, head of Massey Energy since the early 1990s, ran an industry that provides nearly half of America's electric power. But wealth and influence weren't enough for Blankenship and his company, as they set about destroying corporate and personal rivals, challenging the Constitution, purchasing the West Virginia judiciary, and willfully disregarding safety standards in the company's mines—in which scores died unnecessarily. As Blankenship hobnobbed with a West Virginia Supreme Court justice in France, his company polluted the drinking water of hundreds of citizens while he himself fostered baroque vendettas against anyone who dared challenge his sovereignty over coal mining country. Just about the only thing that stood in the way of Blankenship's tyranny over a state and an industry was a pair of odd-couple attorneys, Dave Fawcett and Bruce Stanley, who undertook a legal quest to bring justice to this corner of America. From the backwoods courtrooms of West Virginia they pursued their case all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, and to a dramatic decision declaring that the wealthy and powerful are not entitled to purchase their own brand of law. The Price of Justice is a story of corporate corruption so far-reaching and devastating it could have been written a hundred years ago by Ida Tarbell or Lincoln Steffens. And as Laurence Leamer demonstrates in this captivating tale, because it's true, it's scarier than fiction.
