Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Black Mountains of Pakistan, the discovery of an unconscious, unknown man is the first snowball in an avalanche of chaos. The head of the village is beset with problems – including the injured stranger – and failing to find his way out. His daughter receives a love letter and incurs her father’s wrath. A lame boy foretells disaster, but nobody is listening. Trapped in terrible danger, a wolf-dog is battling ice and death to save a soldier’s life. Beaten by her addict husband for bearing him only daughters, a woman is pregnant again – but can this child save her? As the elements turn on the village, can humanity find a way to co-exist with nature that doesn’t destroy either of them?

Download or read book An Abundance of Flowers written by Judith M. Taylor and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-08 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walk into any nursery, florist, or supermarket, and you’ll encounter displays of dozens of gorgeous flowers, from chrysanthemums to orchids. At one time these fanciful blooms were the rare trophies of the rich and influential—even the carnation, today thought of as one of the humblest cut flowers. Every blossom we take for granted now is the product of painstaking and imaginative planning, breeding, horticultural ingenuity, and sometimes chance. The personalities of the breeders, from an Indiana farmer to Admiral Lord Gambier’s gardener, were as various and compelling as the beauty they conjured from skilled hybridization. In Visions of Loveliness: Great Flower Breeders of the Past, Judith Taylor wrote engagingly about the vivid history and characters behind eighteen types of popular flowers. In this companion volume she uncovers information about another eight familiar flowers: poinsettias, chrysanthemums, gladioli, pansies, carnations, water lilies, clematis, and penstemons. Taylor has tapped into an enormous trove of stories about extraordinary people with vision and skill who added to our enjoyment piece by piece, starting about 150 years ago. This beautifully illustrated book will please flower enthusiasts, gardeners, and history buffs alike.

Download or read book Wild Rose written by Laurel June Thompson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2022-02-14 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The McAlister family story continues with Wild Rose, a sequel to Born for Adversity. McAlister Grange comes to life once more when Rose McAlister, a successful equine veterinarian in Southeastern Pennsylvania, makes a surprising discovery, awakening a new desire to delve into her past through a secret, hidden journal penned by her ancestor over a century before. Wild Rose explores Rose’s journey through the past, while taking some startling and sometimes dangerous turns in her present and future as well. Romance, adventure, heartbreak, sacrifice, and even a mysterious crossover into the Otherworld make for a dynamic and thrilling read, all leading to an epiphany of faith and understanding of what family truly means. Peek around the corner of time to reach into the lives of generations past, finding that those who have gone before are so much more than a dash between two dates on a gravestone. See how each generation helps to shape the next, both for good and ill, by every decision made, no matter how insignificant a choice it may seem at the time. Decide if fate or free will is the driving force in life, carving one’s family tree through the centuries into a thriving, towering elm or a stump of deadwood, only good for the fire. See how the families McAlister, O’Donnell, Riley, Campbell, DuBois, Reardon, and Livingston interact and intertwine to culminate in a God-ordained destiny for those who choose to follow His leading—for if one is open to divine guidance, there will be signs; only seek, and ye shall find.
