Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much has been written about war and remembrance, but very little of it has been for young children. As questions come from a young grandchild, his grandpa talks about how, as a very young man, he was as proud as a peacock in uniform, busy as a beaver on his Atlantic crossing, and brave as a lion charging into battle. Soon, the old man’s room is filled with an imaginary menagerie as the child thinks about different aspects of wartime. But as he pins medals on his grandpa’s blazer and receives his own red poppy in return, the mood becomes more somber. Outside, the crowd gathered for the veterans’ parade grows as quiet as a mouse, while men and women — old and young — march past in the rain. A trumpet plays and Grandpa lays a wreath in memory of his lost friend. Just then, the child imagines an elephant in the mist. “Elephants never forget,” he whispers to his grandpa. “Then let’s be elephants,” says the old man, as he wipes water from his eyes and takes his grandson’s hand. Proud as a Peacock, Brave as a Lion has relevance to a growing number of families, as new waves of soldiers leave home.

Download or read book Brave As a Lion written by J. Wade and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes, history just forgets people. Jefferson J. Standifer is one such person whom history has forgotten, but in the mid 19th century, his exploits were well known throughout the Western United States. He prospected for gold in California, British Columbia, Idaho, Wyoming, Nevada, and Montana. He spent time in Hawaii and made a very mysterious trip to Mexico. The man fought many engagements with natives, was shot several times, and even had time to own a saloon in an ill-fated railroad town. He traveled thousands of miles on horseback and helped men get from California to join the Confederate army during the War Between the States. Jeff was called the "Kit Carson of the Northwest", the "Daniel Boone of the mines", and a "Builder of Idaho." Despite these high praises, his name disappeared from discussions on western history in the 1950s. Perhaps it was his membership in the ultrasecret "Knights of the Golden Circle" that has helped erase his name from our memory. This is the first time Jeff's story has been told, a story that was almost lost to time. In part due to another shadowy organization known as the 21st Century Confederate Legion. Is this just a Southern heritage group, or is something more sinister afoot in the modern day?
