Download or read book Calvary Alley written by Alice Caldwell Hegan Rice and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-12-16 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'Calvary Alley', Alice Caldwell Hegan Rice paints a picture of a once-notorious Calvary Alley, now transformed into the clean and respectable Cathedral Court. However, a trace of its past remains in the form of a child's footprint in the concrete walkway leading to the cathedral yard. The novel follows the story of Nance Molloy, a young girl who is part of a group of children engaged in a long-standing feud with the choir boys. The conflict centers around the possession of a spade left in the alley by workmen, and tensions escalate as insults and mud balls are exchanged. Through the children's eyes, the reader sees the challenges of growing up in a tough environment and how they navigate issues of poverty, class, and social norms. Rice's storytelling captures the intricacies of human relationships, the struggles of life, and the hope of a brighter future.
Download or read book Phil s Favorite 500 written by Phil Berardelli and published by Mountain Lake Press. This book was released on 2015-08-10 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Phil Berardelli has been in love with movies ever since his first encounter as a little boy thrilled him and then scared the daylights out of him. In the intervening years, including a six-year stint as a TV movie critic, Phil has seen at least 5,000 titles. Here he has put together a list of his 500+ favorites, which he has separated into 50 categories. He has accompanied each one with informative, witty, and often insightful capsule comments along with bits of trivia, formatting descriptions and, where available, links to online trailers, clips and full-length versions. Newly updated for 2014 and containing 24 new titles -- plus a new section of recommended books -- Phil's Favorite 500 encompasses everything Phil has learned in over half a century of moviegoing. The list includes something for everyone -- adults, couples, children, teens and families -- and covers some of the greatest movies ever made, both in the U.S. and elsewhere, as well as some of the cinema's most entertaining clunkers. Many of his choices -- and omissions -- may surprise you. But in all cases, Phil makes compelling arguments for sampling these titles. If you do sample them, you might just find yourself adding many of them to your own list of favorites. Sampled, browsed, or read from beginning to end, Phil's Favorite 500 reflects a love of the medium that is contagious, and his descriptions will help you view even the most familiar movies in a new and very entertaining way.
Download or read book North Dallas Forty written by Peter Gent and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2011-06-28 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Bestseller: The “powerful novel” about the hidden side of pro football, written by a former NFL player (Newsweek). On the field, the men who play football are gladiators, titans, and every other kind of cliché. But when they leave the locker room they are only men. Peter Gent’s classic novel looks at the seedy underbelly of the pro game, chronicling eight days in the life of Phil Elliott, an aging receiver for the Texas team. Running on a mixture of painkillers and cortisone as he tries to keep his fading legs strong, Elliott tries to get every ounce of pleasure out of his last days of glory, living the life of sex, drugs, and football. Adapted for the screen in 1979, this novel, written by ex-Dallas Cowboy Peter Gent, is widely considered the best football novel of all time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Legendary Heroes of U.S. History—As You’ve Never Seen Them Before! Secret Lives of the Civil War features irreverent and uncensored profiles of men and women from the Union and the Confederacy—complete with hundreds of little-known and downright bizarre facts. You’ll discover that: • Mary Todd Lincoln claimed to receive valuable military strategies from ghosts in the spirit world. • Jefferson Davis once imported camels for soldiers stationed in the American southwest. • Ulysses S. Grant spent much of the Vicksburg campaign on a horse named “Kangaroo.” • James Longstreet fought the Battle of Antietam wearing carpet slippers. • William T. Sherman was the victim of two shipwrecks on the same day. • Harriet Tubman experienced frequent and bizarre hallucinations. • Stonewall Jackson was a notorious hypochondriac (he always sat up straight, fearing that slouching would compress his vital organs). With chapters on everyone from William Quantrill (a guerilla leader whose skull later ended up in the basement of a fraternity house) to Rose O’Neal Greenhow (perhaps the South’s most glamorous spy), Secret Lives of the Civil War features a mix of famous faces and unsung heroes. American history was never this much fun in school!
