Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to the inaugural edition of The Hilltop Tier: An Anthology of Youth and Young Adult Authors! This book serves as a showcase and testament to the power of words in creative and literary arts. While we're all familiar with how words can shape and reshape thoughts, canvases and outlooks; this book is a reminder that words can reshape lives, as well. Poetry and prose are not just a means of expression. Neither are they meaningless gestures or frivolous hobbies. Every business industry has need of creative expression. A product or service is nothing without creating buzz by word of mouth! There are entire marketing budgets dedicated to content that captures the imagination and attention of an audience. Who does that better than a well-written or well-spoken wordsmith?!! The ability to create worlds with words has literally been around since the beginning of time. So, when youth begin to showcase such a God-given talent, we owe it to them to not only give them our undivided attention, but to provide the resources, platforms and means to express it fully as a part of their destiny unfolds before our eyes! Writing poetry and fiction can become a source of income: a revenue stream that, like the words themselves, reshapes available landscapes for writers to sustain themselves. We owe it to our youth to give them the chance to take command of these streams of income as early as possible. This anthology is an open door for the featured authors to explore. Said door represents the beginning of endless possibilities for them as they see and own a published work with their names printed within its borders. What you are about to read is not just a collection of poetry; it is a collection of empowerment and employment poised to launch career paths and a business acumen that will steer them into adulthood. The format of the book begins with a poetic introduction followed by two sections featuring eight Youth and Young Adult Authors. Each contributor's featured suite will be introduced by a poetic prologue written by the publisher and inspired by each author's content. As you progress through the book, the final form of the publisher's poetic prerogative will serve as a complete epilogue to conclude the collection of poetry. Without further ado, Water2WinePress Publishing House is pleased to present to you: The Hilltop Tier: An Anthology of Youth and Young Adult Authors: VOLUME I!
Book Synopsis The Hilltop Writers by : W. R. Trotter
Download or read book The Hilltop Writers written by W. R. Trotter and published by . This book was released on 2003-03 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a railway line opened in 1859, cutting through the hills of south-west Surrey on its way from London to Portsmouth, it presented an enticing new possibility. Now professional people could choose to live among heather-covered hilltops, with their wide views and wholesome air, while still having access to the facilities of the capital, only an hour and a half away by train from Haslemere. Many did so, following the example of the poet laureate himself, Alfred, Lord Tennyson. In this book, rich in detail and yet thoroughly readable, Bob Trotter tells of sixty-five other writers who chose to populate the hilltops around Haslemere and Hindhead in the last decades of the nineteenth century.

Book excerpt: HELL ON A HILL TOP-for four months in 1970, Hell raged on the hill tops of Ripcord, 805, 902 and 1000, all just east of the A Shau Valley. HELL ON A HILL TOP Instead of backing away from the fight, the North Vietnamese mortar, recoilless rifle, heavy machine gun, sapper and regular infantry attacks increased. The last offensive around Ripcord was starting to look like the last stand. Unwilling to keep American soldiers at high risk at this stage of the war; Ripcord was evacuated on 23 July. The battle went unnoticed for 30 years until Keith Nolan's book, RIPCORD, was published. As powerful and gripping as was the story of great leadership and courageous fighting by our soldiers, the magnitude of the enemy force still remained unknown. The author, the 3rd Brigade commander during the siege and evacuation, made trips to Vietnam in 2001 and 2004 and interviewed the 324B Division Commander whose first-ever division sole mission, was to destroy Firebase Ripcord. The full story is now told.

Download or read book The Hilltop written by Assaf Gavron and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mordantly funny and deeply moving, this award-winning novel about life in a West Bank settlement has been hailed as “brilliant” (The New York Times Book Review) and “The Great Israeli Novel [in which] Gavron stakes his claim to be Israel’s Jonathan Franzen” (Tablet). On a rocky hilltop stands Ma’aleh Hermesh C, a fledgling outpost of Jewish settlers in the West Bank. According to government records it doesn’t exist; according to the military it must be defended. On this contested land, Othniel Assis—under the wary gaze of the Palestinians in the neighboring village—lives on his farm with his ever-expanding family. As Othniel cheerfully manipulates government agencies, more settlers arrive, and a hodge-podge of shipping containers and mobile homes takes root. One steadfast resident is Gabi Kupper, a former kibbutz dweller who savors the delicate routines of life on the settlement. When Gabi’s prodigal brother, Roni, arrives penniless on his doorstep with a bizarre plan to sell the “artisanal” olive oil from the Palestinian village to Tel Aviv yuppies, Gabi worries his life won’t stay quiet for long. Then a nosy American journalist stumbles into Ma’aleh Hermesh C, and Gabi’s worst fears are confirmed. The settlement becomes the focus of an international diplomatic scandal, facing its greatest threat yet. This “indispensable novel” (The Wall Street Journal) skewers the complex, often absurd reality of life in Israel. Grappling with one of the most charged geo-political issues of our time, “Gavron’s story gains a foothold in our hearts and minds and stubbornly refuses to leave” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).

Part II contains works for the stage. Part III contains stories that reflect a fictional character's encounter with Italy, either directly or through the travels of others.
