Book excerpt: In this unique and innovative debut novel, a diverse group of teens meet in the Canadian Rocky Mountains for a ten day hiking excursion. They take only their backpacks and a sense of adventure. Danny Michaelson, nearly sixteen, just wants to get away from his mother's boyfriend, the very man who paid for the trip. Though Danny seeks adventure, what he really must discover is man inside himself. Breyona Lewis, sixteen, wants to leave behind the dark memory of an assault she's never told anyone about. Though she seeks escape, she'll find she's a prisoner of more than her past. Em Michaelson, seventeen, was sent along by her mother to make sure her brother Danny doesn't get into any trouble. But in the backcountry, all Em really wants is a cell phone signal. Joachim "Wa" Martin, nearly sixteen, came from the streets of LA, a skateboard hero and parkour daredevil. While he loves the wilderness, the main attraction for him is Em. Shiv Malgaonkar, sixteen, pursues his passion for learning, eager to study every plant, tree and animal dropping he can find. But a terrible tragedy in his home life haunts him, leading to the toughest decision of his life. Bronson Gerk, seventeen, came because his dad forced him to. Overbearing and rude, he tells outrageous lies to boost his own ego. And when things go bad, he does his best to make them worse. Harvin McTavish, sixty-three, leads the youth excursions into the mountains. He knows every peak and valley like the back of his hand. Over the past forty years he's seen things ... strange things. But nothing has prepared him for what he'll see on this trip. The hikers arrive exhausted at camp six. But Harvin sends Danny and Breyona to collect water. Despite his weariness, Danny is excited to get some alone time with Breyona. The hike turns into a race for their lives when the two teens encounter a creature of legend—an eight foot tall beast they tag as "bigfoot". Swept to the secret city of Undermountain, Danny, Breyona and their friends find themselves caught in the middle of a war—between their bigfoot captors and horrific creatures called tangoga. Seperated from Breyona and frustrated with the intrigues of the bigfoot leadership council, Danny realizes he must act. During his desperate search for a way out, he uncovers the terrible plans the tangoga have for Earth. Plans that will only go into effect if they win the war against the bigfeet. Breyona, held in a bare "meditation cell," realizes she's being brainwashed by the bigfoot leader, Hanameesovenama. She's realizes she's being trained like a dog, all part of the leader's plan to bring the bigfoot race into the open, and to take over the Earth ... if they can withstand the final tangoga assault. To escape, to survive, to save the Earth, Danny, Breyona and friends face an impossible task. They must end the war ... and make sure neither side wins.

Download or read book The Anarchy of Nazi Memorabilia written by Michael Hughes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-02-08 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Out of the numerous books and articles on the Third Reich, few address its material culture, and fewer still discuss the phenomenon of Nazi memorabilia. This is all the more surprising given that Nazi symbols, so central to sustaining Hitler’s movement, continue to live long after the collapse of his 12-year Reich. Neither did Nazi ideology die; far-right populists would like to see the swastika flown over the White House or Buckingham Palace. Against a backdrop of right-wing extremism, military re-enactors think nothing of dressing up in Waffen-SS uniforms and romanticising the Third Reich in the name of living history. Auctioneers are prepared to hammer down Nazi artefacts to the highest bidder, but who is buying them, and why do they do so? Should collectors be allowed to decorate their homes with Nazi flags? The Anarchy of Nazi Memorabilia begins by examining the creation and context of Nazi artefacts and symbols during the volatile Weimar Republic to their wider distribution during the Third Reich. There were few people in Nazi Germany who did not wear a badge or uniform of some sort. Whether it be mothers, soldiers or concentration camp inmates, they were all branded. The chapter on the Second World War demonstrates that although German soldiers were cynical about being given medals in exchange for freezing in Russia. They still continued to fight, for which more decorations were awarded. A large proportion of this book is therefore given to the meaning that Nazi symbols had before Nazi Germany was eventually defeated in May 1945. Equally important, however, and one of the characteristics of this book, is the analysis of the meaning and value of Nazi material culture over time. The interpreters of Nazi symbols that this book focuses on are internationally based private collectors and traders. Sustained attention is given in a chapter outlining the development of the collectors’ market for Nazi memorabilia from 1945 onwards. No matter how much collectors go out of their way to paint the hobby in a positive light, their activities do not fully escape the troubled past of the material that they desire. So contested are Nazi symbols that another chapter is devoted to the ethics and morals of destroying or preserving them. The issues surrounding private versus public custody and ownership of Nazi artefacts are also discussed. So far, in this book, the examination of Nazi artefacts has been restricted to physical objects within societies that are generally aware of the consequences of Hitlerism. As we increasingly move into the digital age, however, and there are few survivors of the Second World War left to relay their horrific experiences, the final chapter contemplates the future of Nazi symbols both digitally and physically, fake or real. This book will appeal to all those interested in the Third Reich, Nazi ideology, Neo-Nazism, perceptions of the Nazis post-1945, modern European history and political symbolism. It will also hold particular appeal to those interested in the collecting and trading of contested and highly emotive artefacts. It considers aesthetics, authenticity, commodification, gift exchange, life histories of people and objects, materiality and value theory.
