Book Synopsis The Long, Hot Summer of 1967 by : M. McLaughlin
Download or read book The Long, Hot Summer of 1967 written by M. McLaughlin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-03-20 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It seemed at times during the 1960s that America was caught in an unending cycle of violence and disorder. Successive summers from 1964-1968 brought waves of urban unrest, street fighting, looting, and arson to black communities in cities from Florida to Wisconsin, Maryland to California. In some infamous cases like Watts (1965), Newark (1967), and Detroit (1967), the turmoil lasted for days on end and left devastation in its wake: entire city blocks were reduced to burnt-out ruins and scores of people were killed or injured mainly by police officers and National Guardsmen as they battled to regain control. This book takes the pivotal year of 1967 as its focus and sets it in the context of the long, hot summers to provide new insights into the meaning of the riots and their legacy. It offers important new findings based on extensive original archival research, including never-before-seen, formerly embargoed and classified government documents and newly released official audio recordings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charlie Draper has been struggling to be normal all his life. He's successfully hidden his extraordinary brain power until the 6th grade. One day in Mr. Twiddle's class, his boredom and frustration finally reach a boiling point. The in-class melt down results in his expulsion from 'normal school' - to date the best day of Charlie's young life. He was sent for a psychological exam. The results reveal his abnormal intellect and lead to his placement in a 'special' school for the gifted but behaviorally challenged, The Brain Learning Trust or 'BLT' for short. Here, Charlie finds a home - a place where he can be his brilliant self and not be scrutinized for 'cheating'. Charlie and the other BLT members are allowed to explore their interests with almost unlimited government funding. But there were strings attached ... and Charlie had no idea that his education would include risking his life! The summer of his entrance to the BLT has been extraordinarily hot - an unprecedented, world-wide, heat wave the scientific community can't explain as simple global warming. The BLT is called upon to travel to England (from which the heatwave seems to be emanating) on an 'undercover mission' to find the source and destroy it. An insane adventure begins involving all the assets of the BLT group and involves Charlie up to his eyeballs in telepathy, telekinesis, and the ancient power of Gia, Mother Earth as wielded by a modern, Druid Priestess! Can Charlie and his group save the Earth from destruction?!!

Book excerpt: In Au Revoir she ran away. In Last Tango her world turned upside down. Now, her relationships are about to reach boiling point.In the European summer of 2003 a deadly heat wave strikes France. To Mary Moody, living in her rural village in the south-west of France, it seems that the weather is merely imitating the stifling heat of her marriage, which is on the verge of collapse following the events recounted in Last Tango in Toulouse. But despite relentlessly hot days and an uncertain future, Mary's new-found passion for life cannot be suppressed. It is not long before she is once again torn between her two desires: for the independence of her life in France; and for the love and continuity of her marriage and family life in Australia. While Mary immerses herself in the pleasures of her second home - the food and wine, the markets, her colourful circle of friends - a shattering turn of events comes when she least expects it. Au Revoir and Last Tango in Toulouse have become national bestsellers and made Mary Moody one of the best-loved and most successful non-fiction writers in Australia. With all the warmth and candour we've come to expect, The Long Hot Summer explores the minefield of relationships and changing desires, set against the beautiful backdrop of rural France.
