Download or read book What Shall I Call It written by Vernice L. Boone and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2003-02-03 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story is "What Shall I call it?" and that is the real story of a casket hunter who is looking for the coffins that floated away in the great flood of 1922. The boxes contain the remains of people who are insured for a million dollars... Wiley Tel Cleave is his name and he is what is known as an "exact". He has two right hands and he works for the Judges of The "Perfect" City of Villa Village located in the "Rain Forest" of Texas. He goes from Texas to California and on to Nevada and many other places all over the U.S. in the underground cavern of the nation. He is great at jumping out of windows and landing on his feet. He is sometime believed to be the killer of the people he is looking for in these floating caskets. He is a very mysterious kind of guy and some times really pitiful. He is not a great fighter and can dive off three hundred feet bridges and land on his feet but he is a little afraid of his girl friend. He will make you wonder if there is really a rain forest deep in the heard of Texas. And is there really a man traveling in the cravens of the U.S.A. looking for the people who were sat sail in the great flood? What is "Wind Bucket"? What are the other "exact" people like? Two heads, or lips? Did a man really make a billion dollars insuring these people already dead? So what is that under your feet? A bookworm or what are you anyway???
Download or read book The Roll Call written by Bennett, Arnold and published by Aegitas. This book was released on 2016-04-03 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fourth book, The Roll-Call, concerns the young life of Clayhanger's stepson, George. George Edwin Cannon - he soon drops the surname Clayhanger, given to him upon his mother's marriage - is an architect, and represents what his stepfather Edwin Clayhanger wished to become. The characters of Edwin and Hilda are not developed further in this book: Edwin - now elevated to Alderman - appears only briefly. The central character displays an unattractive arrogance because of the wealth behind him. In an early chapter, he thinks about adding electric light to his London dwelling, and decides that he - or rather, his stepfather - can well afford it. Bennett seems to have felt that the children of the successful bourgeoisie, unless their excesses are suppressed as Edwin's were, will become spoilt; this same theme recurs in The Old Wives' Tale.

Download or read book Call Me Sister written by Jane Yeadon and published by Black & White Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-10 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who'd have thought a missing bacon rasher and a teaspoon would play a part in advancing someone's career? It's the late '60s and Jane Yeadon has always wanted to be a district nurse. Staff nursing in a ward where she's challenged by an inventorydriven ward sister, she reckons it's time to swap such trivialities for life as a district nurse. Independent thinking is one thing, but Jane's about to find that the drama on district can demand instant reaction; and without hospital back up, she's usually the one having to provide it. She meets a rich cast of patients all determined to follow their own individual star, and goes to Edinburgh where Queen Victoria's Jubilee Institute's nurse training is considered the crème de la crème of the district nursing world. Call Me Sister recalls Jane's challenging and often hilarious route to realising her own particular dream.
