Download or read book Fingerprints Left Behind written by Heidi Bridges and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-06-13 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every one of us has a story to tell (a testimony) and a reason to praise God. You did not get this far in life on your own merit. You got this far by Gods Grace and Mercy. You got this far because God gave you what you did not deserve. Take a moment and look back at all the things in life you have done, (whether you got caught or not is not the importance), think about everything you have done, look at yourself in the mirror and be honest with yourself, then you will be able to see that you were given favor by God, and He did not give you what you deserved. If you still question whether God is real, look into the eyes of your children, your sisters, your brothers, your husband, your wife, breathe in and breathe out, if you woke up on this side of the dirt today, thats how you can know that God is real, you cannot sustain yourself, God sustains you. If you have read the poems in this book and you were affected by them, if they touched your heart and you dont know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, I encourage you to come into a relationship with him. Make God the Lord of your life, and watch things happen in your life that you cannot explain. . . . . . . . thats GOD!!!!!!!!
Download or read book The Crash of Delta Flight 723 written by Paul D. Houle and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2021-12-02 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the height of the Watergate scandal, Delta Flight 723 crashed into a fog-shrouded seawall at the end of Runway 4R at Logan Airport in Boston. While this incident and Watergate seemed unrelated at first, President Richard Nixon and his subordinates' actions during Watergate interfered with the ability of the National Transportation Safety Board to properly investigate the crash. It wasn't until three court cases, a federal investigation, congressional hearings, as well as a state investigation, when the true cause of the accident was exposed ten years later. This is also the story of Air Force Sergeant Leopold Chouinard and his incredible fight for survival. Chouinard survived the initial impact of the crash, only to suffer third and fourth degree burns on the majority of his body. Doctors fought against incredible odds to try and save Chouinard's life. For 134 days, Leo Chouinard defied all expectations as his doctors and nurses applied the latest advancements in burn treatments to save him from a non-survivable accident. They nearly succeeded. Through interviews with Chouinard's family, his physicians, and the NTSB's investigation, comes a story of corruption, determination, and vindication as well as the answer to what really caused that crash at Logan airport.

Book excerpt: Bobby-Jack Billings is a beer-guzzling, gut-bulging slipshod. He’s a drunk, a racist and a buffoon. He’s also the President’s brother-in-law. And he’s missing. The list of suspects seems endless. America’s number-one beer drinker and Presidential liability has been silenced, but by whom? The Bad Guys or the Good Guys? Terrorists or patriots? The Libyans or the Israelis? The Secret Service or the Mafia? The clock is ticking and the White House is grasping at straws. America’s last lines of defence, Chiun and Remo, are on the case. But teasing apart the twisted strands of international intrigue may demand more subtlety than the Destroyer commands. Particularly when signs suggest the involvement of the Commander-in-Chief himself . . . Breathlessly action-packed and boasting a winning combination of thrills, humour and mysticism, the Destroyer is one of the bestselling series of all time.
Download or read book A Miracle of Catfish written by Larry Brown and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2007-03-20 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Larry Brown has been a force in American literature since taking critics by storm with his debut collection, Facing the Music, in 1988. His subsequent work—five novels, another story collection, and two books of nonfiction—continued to bring extraordinary praise and national attention to the writer New York Newsday called a "master." In November 2004, Brown sent the nearly completed manuscript of his sixth novel to his literary agent. A week later, he died of a massive heart attack. He was fifty-three years old. A Miracle of Catfish is that novel. Brown's trademarks—his raw detail, pared-down prose, and characters under siege—are all here. This beautiful, heartbreaking anthem to the writer's own North Mississippi land and the hard-working, hard-loving, hard-losing men it spawns is the story of one year in the lives of five characters—an old farmer with a new pond he wants stocked with baby catfish; a bankrupt fish pond stocker who secretly releases his forty-pound brood catfish into the farmer's pond; a little boy from the trailer home across the road who inadvertently hooks the behemoth catfish; the boy's inept father; and a former convict down the road who kills a second time to save his daughter. That Larry Brown died so young, and before he could see A Miracle of Catfish published, is a tragedy. That he had time to enrich the legacy of his work with this remarkable book is a blessing.
Download or read book The Complete Polly and the Wolf written by Catherine Storr and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Catherine Storr’s daughter was very small, she was afraid of the wolf under her bed, so every night her mother would tell her a story in which Polly outwitted the wolf. These bedtime stories eventually became the collection Clever Polly and the Stupid Wolf, a wonderfully thrilling and reassuring series of adventures in which the clever, independent, and unstoppable Polly fools the persistent, hungry young wolf time and again. In a match much like Bugs Bunny and the Road Runner but more polite and quick-witted, Polly and the wolf develop ever-more complicated ways of turning the tables on each other as they grow older and, in Polly’s case at least, wiser. Three more collections of stories followed the original Clever Polly, all hilariously inventive variations on a much loved theme, and all of the stories are collected here for the first time.
Download or read book Colours in the Sky written by Graham M. Simons and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2018-05-30 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's impossible to tell the story of Court Line without telling that of Autair, founded by helicopter pioneer William 'Bill' Armstrong. Autair itself was an offshoot of his global helicopter operation, but Bill also had his finger in many aviation 'pies' including a multitude of operations in Africa, where so many aircraft and airlines were created, bought and sold with such prolificacy that even he could not remember the names and how many there were! There is also the background to Court Line's shipping concerns and the Caribbean operations of the hotel chains and regional airline Leeward Islands Air Transport which Court owned for a while.Covered in detail is the introduction, demonstration and use of the Lockheed TriStar wide-bodied airliner, the first of the type used in the Inclusive Tour business.Court Line Aviation and Tom Gullick's Clarksons Holidays brought to the forefront the concept of value-for-money Inclusive Tour holidays following the 'vertical integration' business model whereby owning and controlling each step of the holiday allowed the company to make a small profit at every stage.The orange, pink, turquoise and yellow jets brought flashes of color to dreary British airports, and quickly streamed a multi-colored rainbow across European skies to Mediterranean destinations and even further afield. Truly they did indeed put colors in the Sky!
