Download or read book Western Ranch written by Gary Toenges and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-03-27 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have revised my first publication to an 8.5" x 11" format. I have collected MARX Playsets for over thirty years. Until I retired they sat in my attic collecting dust. After I retired I dusted them off and set them up taking pictures which I then turned into books like this one. What I've learned from being a collector is this, at some point you have to do something with all this stuff. I've spent a lot of money over the years and in hindsight if a book like this one had been available I would have purchased it. It would have saved me money and work because setting these playsets were work and nothing like I remember as a kid playing with them. If you're a MARX toy enthusiast I believe you'll enjoy my books on these great toys. Thank you, Gary

Book excerpt: Despite being a pacifist, Wells masterfully explains and gathers all the prerequisites for waging a war... with toy soldiers. ‘Little Wars’ can be said to be the original instruction manual for how to run a tabletop battle. Satire and pacifist views blend in this narrative that expresses Wells' idea that wars should be waged on the dining room floor rather than among the corpse-ridden trenches of Europe. The book’s influence on modern warfare manuals and board games is indisputable, as tabletop conflicts are conducted to this day. Wells portrays the harrowing nature of war, but his humour ensures the book remains an entertaining read. The whimsical writing and stunning sketches create a book that should be read by all fans of tabletop war games. H. G. Wells (1866-1946) was a celebrated English writer, remembered mostly for his science fiction works. Often described as a futurist, H. G. Wells’ influence cannot be overstated for his works foresaw many technological innovations such as space travel, the atomic bomb, and the Internet. A four-time Nobel Prize in Literature nominee, Wells explored a wide array of themes in his works, from religion to social criticism and beyond. Some of his best works include the time-travel novel ‘The Time Machine’, the sci-fi adventure novel ‘The Island of Dr. Moreau’, and the mankind-versus-aliens novel ‘The War of the Worlds’. Wells occupies one of the central seats in the canon of science-fiction literature and his writing inspired other celebrated authors such as Ray Bradbury and Philip K. Dick. Wells’ stories are still widely read to this day and have had numerous cinematic adaptations including ‘The Invisible Man’ starring Elisabeth Moss.
