Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Shadow of the Sheltering Pines: A New Romance of the Storm Country Another winter had lifted its icy fingers from the Storm Country and Lake Cayuga, and an early spring had brought from the south the redbreasted robins and thousands of other birds to build their homes in the Forest City, as Ithaca, New York, is called. No wonder the name had been given to the quiet town of people, for to the south, the east, the west, and even to the north where the lake cut sharply around a corner, broad forests stretched their lengths and heights of leaf and bough on miniature mountains.

Download or read book The Romance of Merry Maiden written by Walter R. Nursey and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romance of Merry Maiden: Or How the Farm Mortgage Was Lifted by a Jersey Beauty The following story as regards its main incidents is founded upon fact. Fictitious names have in most instances been substituted for the original ones. The dairy records of the cow, Merry Maiden, and those of the Jersey herd at the World's Columbian Exposition Dairy Tests, with the victory of the Jerseys in open competition against an equal number of Shorthorn and Guernsey cows - the pick of the continent - and the reference to the ultimate and present owner of Merry Maiden, Mr. C. I. Hood, and "Hood Farm" at Lowell, Mass., are historically correct. The story has been written with a view of showing what can actually be accomplished in the way of releasing a heavily mortgaged farm through the sale of dairy products and by the instrumentality of the most profitable and economical dairy animal in the world - The Jersey Cow.

Download or read book New Jersey Noir written by Jonathan Safran Foer and published by Akashic Books. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the darker side of the Garden State with this anthology of gritty mystery stories. Akashic Books continues its award-winning series of original noir anthologies, launched in 2004 with Brooklyn Noir. Each volume is compromised of all-new stories, each one set in a distinct location within the geographical area of the book. In New Jersey Noir, a star-studded cast of authors sifts through the hidden dirt of the Garden State. Featuring brand-new stories (and a few poems) by Joyce Carol Oates, Jonathan Safran Foer, Robert Pinsky, Edmund White & Michael Carroll, Richard Burgin, Pulitzer Prize–winner Paul Muldoon, Sheila Kohler, C.K. Williams, Gerald Stern, Lou Manfredo, S.A. Solomon, Bradford Morrow, Jonathan Santlofer, Jeffrey Ford, S.J. Rozan, Barry N. Malzberg & Bill Pronzini, Hirsh Sawhney, and Robert Arellano. Praise for New Jersey Noir “Oates’s introduction to Akashic’s noir volume dedicated to the Garden State, with its evocative definition of the genre, is alone worth the price of the book . . . Highlights include Lou Manfredo’s “Soul Anatomy,” in which a politically connected rookie cop is involved in a fatal shooting in Camden; S.J. Rozan’s “New Day Newark,” in which an elderly woman takes a stand against two drug-dealing gangs; and Jonathan Santlofer’s “Lola,” in which a struggling Hoboken artist finds his muse . . . . Poems by C.K. Williams, Paul Muldoon, and others—plus photos by Gerald Slota—enhance this distinguished entry.” —Publishers Weekly “It was inevitable that this fine noir series would reach New Jersey. It took longer than some readers might have wanted, but, oh boy, was it worth the wait . . . More than most of the entries in the series, this volume is about mood and atmosphere more than it is about plot and character . . . It should go without saying that regular readers of the noir series will seek this one out, but beyond that, the book also serves as a very good introduction to what is a popular but often misunderstood term and style of writing.” —Booklist, Starred Review “A lovingly collected assortment of tales and poems that range from the disturbing to the darkly humorous.” —Shelf Awareness

Download or read book Love in the Time of Serial Killers written by Alicia Thompson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-08-16 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Cosmopolitan's Best Romance Novels Ever Turns out that reading nothing but true crime isn't exactly conducive to modern dating—and one woman is going to have to learn how to give love a chance when she's used to suspecting the worst. PhD candidate Phoebe Walsh has always been obsessed with true crime. She's even analyzing the genre in her dissertation—if she can manage to finish writing it. It's hard to find the time while she spends the summer in Florida, cleaning out her childhood home, dealing with her obnoxiously good-natured younger brother, and grappling with the complicated feelings of mourning a father she hadn't had a relationship with for years. It doesn't help that she's low-key convinced that her new neighbor, Sam Dennings, is a serial killer (he may dress business casual by day, but at night he's clearly up to something). It's not long before Phoebe realizes that Sam might be something much scarier—a genuinely nice guy who can pierce her armor to reach her vulnerable heart.
