Download or read book Alexander s Amazon Adventures written by Paul Gopal and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-09-22 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was inspired by my six-year-old son Alexander. He likes the stories very much and thinks that other children will too. As a result, I decided to write this book so that it could be enjoyed by children around the world. Information about the wildlife is factual, and the stories are based on the Author’s experiences growing up as a boy in Guyana in the nineteen fifties. A lot of the wildlife in the book are becoming extinct, and I encourage children to talk to their parents and do whatever they can to preserve our environment for future generations. This book is both entertaining and educational, and I hope that your children enjoy it as much as Alexander!

Download or read book The Lives and Extraordinary Adventures of Fifteen Tramp Writers from the Golden Age of Vagabondage written by Ian Cutler and published by Feral House. This book was released on 2020-02-25 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The combined events of the end of the American Civil War in 1865, the first transcontinental railroad opening in 1869, and the financial crash of 1873, found large numbers—including thousands of former soldiers well used to an outdoor life and tramping—thrown into a transient life and forced to roam the continent, surviving on whatever resources came to hand. For most, the life of the hobo was born out of necessity. For a few it became a lifestyle choice. Some of the latter group committed their adventures to print, both autobiographical and fictional, and together with their British and Irish counterparts, whose wanderlust was fueled by an altogether different genesis, they account for the fifteen tramp writers whose stories and ideas are the subject of this book. The lives of some, like Jack Everson, Jack Black and Tom Kromer, are told in a single volume, others, like Morley Roberts and Stephen Graham, have eighty and fifty published works to their credit respectively. Some remain completely unknown and their books are long since out of print, others, like Trader Horn and Jim Tully, were Hollywood celebrities. Others yet, such as Black, Tulley, Horn, Bart Kennedy, Leon Ray Livingstone, and Jack London, had their stories immortalized in film.
