Download or read book The Crawfish Book written by Pitre, Glen and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2010-01-06 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Indians worshiped them as creators of the world, Napoleon ate them to celebrate his victories, Swedes have them shipped in from halfway around the world, and for Louisiana's Cajuns the humble crawfish is the centerpiece of cuisine, a symbol of ethnic pride, a staple commodity for thriving business ventures, and an inextricable part of folklore. Research and interviews spice this delightful book that details the relationship between crawfish and humans--from antiquity to the New York markets of the 1880s; from Depression-era pauper's feast to gourmet entree of the 1980s Cajun cooking craze; from spring afternoon pastime to modern aquaculture agribusiness. To get the reader's mouth watering, more than two dozen recipes from those who know crawfish best--both famous chefs and crawfishers--are interspersed throughout. Sections offer advice on catching, buying, handling, cooking, and, for those who wish to simplify their encounters with crawfish, ordering tasty dishes in restaurants. Included are also a bibliographical essay, an index to recipes, and a list of sources for spices, paraphernalia, and airfreight shipments of crawfish.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From two veteran ecologists comes a new and sweeping exploration of the natural history of Texas in all its biological diversity and geological variation. Few states, if any, can match Texas for its myriad species, past and present, and its many distinctive landscapes, from prairie grasslands and hardwood forests to coastal lagoons and desert mountains. Beginning with the stories of how biologists and naturalists have over time defined the ecological areas of this very big state, the authors visit each of the eleven regions, including the Texas coast. They describe the dominant flora and fauna of each, explain the defining geologic features, and highlight each region’s unique characteristics, such as carnivorous plants in the Piney Woods and returning black bears in the Trans-Pecos. Throughout, the authors remain especially conscious of the conservation and management issues affecting the natural resources of each region, revealing their deep affection for and knowledge about the state. Bolstered by a glossary, further reading suggestions, a description of state symbols, and an appendix of scientific names, this is an educational and essential volume for all Texans.

Book excerpt: NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE—The #1 New York Times bestselling worldwide sensation with more than 18 million copies sold, hailed by The New York Times Book Review as “a painfully beautiful first novel that is at once a murder mystery, a coming-of-age narrative and a celebration of nature.” For years, rumors of the “Marsh Girl” have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand. Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched and loved. When two young men from town become intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself to a new life—until the unthinkable happens. Where the Crawdads Sing is at once an exquisite ode to the natural world, a heartbreaking coming-of-age story, and a surprising tale of possible murder. Owens reminds us that we are forever shaped by the children we once were, and that we are all subject to the beautiful and violent secrets that nature keeps.

Book excerpt: Madder n Hell .org #3, An Alternative History What will be the future of America? Will the principles and ideals of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States still be America’s guiding light? Will America still be dedicated to “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness”? Will Americans still live in the “Land of the Free and Home of the Brave”? Or, will America’s citizens be dominated by a dictatorship, brutally crushed by martial law? Could that happen? Who could make such a nightmare become reality? What would motivate them? And, how can they be thwarted in their plans? If the history books, to be written in the future, are determined by the past, then that past is defined by the present. This ‘Alternative History’ is a warning. The future of America is in your hands. The decision is yours – TODAY.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The East Texas Connection By: Ronald Armstrong The East Texas Connection is about many of the people and friends that make up Ronald Armstrong’s everyday life. The antics and situations that they and he are flung into are sometimes of their own accord and sometimes by accident. There's nothing better than true stories except true stories from Texas and outlaw antics. The outlaw antics range from motorcycles to the Piney woods to the body shop. There are hundreds of thousands of people just like Armstrong and his Brothers and Sisters in this book who can relate to these stories and might even have better ones than he tells. What makes this book unique is that Armstrong is willing to allow everyone a peek inside his world which has a vast range of interests from his Motorcycle Club, his Bigfoot sightings, hunting mishaps, encounters with the LAW, workplace chaos, Jesus and a .45, black powder explosions, haint's and so many varieties of stories that it's like a buffet of entertainment. Armstrong hopes that everyone who reads his book laughs and that the stories help readers disconnect from the everyday struggles and stresses of life.

Now Jamie must rely on his powerful will to thrive as he attempts to discover who he is meant to be.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How much of ourselves do we disclose when we speak or write? A person’s accent may reveal, for example, whether they hail from Australia, or Ireland, or Mississippi. But it’s not just where we were born—we divulge all sorts of information about ourselves and our identity through language. Level of education, gender, age, and even aspects of our personality can all be reliably determined by our vocabulary and grammar. To those who know what to look for, we give ourselves away every time we open our mouths or tap on a keyboard. But how unique is a person’s linguistic identity? Can language be used to identify a specific person? To identify—or to exonerate—a murder suspect? To determine who authored a particular book? The answer to all these questions is yes. Forensic and computational linguists have developed methods that allow linguistic fingerprinting to be used in law enforcement. Similar techniques are used by literary scholars to identify the authors of anonymous or contested works of literature. Many people have heard that linguistic analysis helped to catch the Unabomber, or to unmask an anonymous editorialist—but how is it done? LINGUSISTIC FINGERPRINTS will explain how these methods were developed and how they are used to solve forensic and literary mysteries. But these techniques aren’t perfect, and the book will also include some cautionary tales about mistaken linguistic identity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Caryl’s Closet is the story of a young Guyanese-American immigrant, June Wood Agamah, coming of age in a changing society. Her story is set amidst the backdrop of a new political system that threatens the Guyanese way of life.
It unfolds as she grapples with the immigration systems of Guyana and Barbados in her search for prosperity. Her life changes with the reality of a heart-stopping loss that propels her on her journey to America. Her quest is fraught with stories of what happens to minorities who pay the cost of social assimilation and academic success. This focus and sacrifice robs her children of the knowledge of who she really is. June is unaware of her need to open her heart. Written treasures, tucked away in her closet are unearthed and become the catalyst for Caryl’s Closet.
