Download or read book The Mess in My Head written by Robert N Stephenson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-02-13 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of short stories captures a time when the author was at his worst with clinical depression (bipolar) and the medication levels were not quite right. All of these stories display more a state of mind rather than any visionary insights into the conditions and how the author dealt with problems arising from the illness. The interesting thing would be what was being imagined at a time when the mind wasn't working in a positive or even productive fashion. It isn't impossible to write fictions when your mind is in crash mode, but it is difficult. This collection features strange stories, mad stories, visions that are macabre and insights that are touching. 500 000 words were written in the short story format and while some are available in other collections, all these are unique to this collection. The Mess in My Head is a journey and one that unexpectedly delivers on its promise. To be strange.
Download or read book The Quick and the Fevered written by Heather Long and published by Heather Long. This book was released on 2015-01-13 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meet Jimmy—quiet brother, sharp shooter, the dangerous one. To save his family, he must leave them and undertake a mission where the only certainty is death. When it comes to hitting a target, he’s the man for the job… They know their enemies are coming for them, and the best course of action will send one of their own on a path for certain death. Jimmy Morning Star volunteers because unlike his siblings, he has no one waiting for him at home. Young Shane refuses to be left behind, so Jimmy must undertake the dangerous task while keeping the young man alive. Together, they leave Dorado and journey north—first to hunt the doppelganger then to kill Adam MacPherson. When a vision quest rousts her to hunt, she will never miss her target… Blue Eagle is one of the last of her kind and gifted with Shamanic magic. Plagued by dreams asking her endlessly for help and a vision quest that warns her destiny lies beyond the bounds of her tribe, she fights against the impetus to abandon those she cares for. When Blue narrowly escapes a slaughter, she understands the truth of her quest and strikes out on her own to place herself directly in the path of the hunters. The closer he looks… Quanto’s cryptic warning to keep the eagle alive is the only clue Jimmy has to the Cheyenne woman’s impact on his life, but it’s not her skills nor her magic worries him—not when need burns in his veins from the moment he sets his sights on her. He has to finish his task, but is he willing to sacrifice the one woman he could love to save everyone he cares about? His mission. Her magic. Their migration.

Download or read book CANNON FODDER written by Dr. Douglas M. Baker and published by Baker eBooks Publishing. This book was released on 2014-04-16 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CANNON FODDER - An English Boy Raised and Blooded in the Cannon's Mouth Like many English couples exhausted and disenchanted after World War One, Douglas Baker's mother and father emigrated with their children to South Africa searching for new opportunities to settle the restlessness that the war had engendered in them. South Africa itself was a potpourri of races and cultures which offered opportunities that favoured some, whilst allowing them to retain their very English culture. Douglas himself, born in England, had to contend with conditions in the foreign land in which his family had chosen to raise him. South Africa was a war torn nation where there had been 82 fiercely fought battles against indigenous peoples like the Zulus, more recent settlers like the immigrant Boers, German colonials and more recently rebellious elements bordering on civil war. Added to this furore, a mix of contending civilizations was the discovery of gold and diamonds on the Rand and at Kimberly which added to the excitement and competition. It was through the English residents and Empire builders like Cecil Rhodes that the curse of Apartheid and its stark regulations were challenged. Cannon Fodder is the prequel to War, Wine & Valour (published in 2005), and documents the author's childhood up to his volunteering to fight for king and country during the Second World War. "Douglas Baker is a remarkable man and has written a remarkable book. As an infantryman, he rescued a wounded comrade at Gazala while under intensive cross fire. In the carnage at Alamein a shell took away most of his right shoulder blade. He retrained on Sherman tanks. Near Florence an 88mm shell burst on his tank perforating his right lung and almost severing his left arm. He absconded from hospital and fought once more at the front. Although just one man's experience of the war it is a gift to the historian with its engrossing accounts and accurate detail. It is also a fascinating insight into day-to-day events and personal feelings during this difficult time. He is undecorated and receives no military pension from the British Government." William Roach MBE Douglas Baker, now in his eighty eighth year, is a medical doctor, academic and public speaker who has spent the past fifty years researching the hidden facets of human nature. The second volume of the author's autobiography, War, Wine and Valour describes in vivid detail the six arduous years he spent in the British Armed forces during World War Two. Born in England, but raised in South Africa, he responded to the threat of Nazism and barely sixteen years old enlisted in the Natal Mounted Rifles. His regiment faced Axis forces on five fronts, in Kenya, Central Abyssinia, Cyrenaica and with the British Eighth army he participated in the Battle of El Alamein in which he was dangerously wounded. During the Italian Campaign he fought with the United States Fifth Army and again suffered near mortal injuries when his Sherman tank was hit with enemy shell fire. Through six years of active service he came to understand the psychology of men at bay when confronted repeatedly with bombardment, direct attack and sustained terror. The experience of war evoked in him curiosity and discovery which led to the mastery of medicine at Sheffield University. Interweaving the narrative are detailed descriptions and maps, thoroughly researched, of the major battles that the author and his comrades participated in. Their first hand experience adds richness to these events. This is a remarkable story of a remarkable man.

Book excerpt: A Most Daunting Time is an epic tale of two families in the 1930s in the shadow of the Great Depression. Melvyn and Sally Bridges settled in Dodge City, Kansas, a mid-western town of renown, in 1919, and began farming. They farmed until the middle-'30s when the Dust Bowl rendered them penniless. Sally bore two sons and a daughter, the eldest of which, Mitchell, is a baseball player with remarkable skills and future ambitions. Charles Clark, an aristocratic oil tycoon, and his daughter, Holly, a "Belle of the South," live in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, and have lived quite well through the hardening times. But, fate has a way of evening out odds, and little did both families know they would be brought together in unforeseen circumstances.
