Some of the people in the area, including Hastings, didn't believe that the crash was an accident. Jolene Hunt, a friend of Hastings, had emotional ties to the victim.

Book excerpt: On their way to fight in the Mexican-American War, a group of American soldiers are swept away to a strange and deadly alternate Earth in this thrilling new adventure set in the world of the New York Times bestselling Destroyermen series. The United States, 1847. A disparate group of young American soldiers are bound to join General Winfield Scott's campaign against Santa Anna at Veracruz during the Mexican-American War. They never arrive. Or rather . . . they arrive somewhere else. The untried, idealistic soldiers are mostly replacements, really; a handful of infantry, artillery, dragoons, and a few mounted riflemen with no unified command. And they've been shipwrecked on a terrible, different Earth full of monsters and unimaginable enemies. Major Lewis Cayce, late of the 3rd US "Flying" Artillery, must unite these men to face their fears and myriad threats, armed with little more than flintlock muskets, a few pieces of artillery, and a worldview that spiritually and culturally rebels against virtually everything they encounter. It will take extraordinary leadership and a cadre of equally extraordinary men and women to mold frightened troops into an effective force, make friends with other peoples the evil Holy Dominion would eradicate, and reshape their "manifest destiny" into a cause they can all believe in and fight for. For only together will they have any hope of survival.

Download or read book Yaguaret White written by Diego Báez and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2024-02-20 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Diego Báez’s debut collection, Yaguareté White, English, Spanish, and Guaraní encounter each other through the elusive yet potent figure of the jaguar. The son of a Paraguayan father and a mother from Pennsylvania, Baéz grew up in central Illinois as one of the only brown kids on the block—but that didn’t keep him from feeling like a gringo on family visits to Paraguay. Exploring this contradiction as it weaves through experiences of language, self, and place, Baéz revels in showing up the absurdities of empire and chafes at the limits of patrimony, but he always reserves his most trenchant irony for the gaze he turns on himself. Notably, this raucous collection also wrestles with Guaraní, a state-recognized Indigenous language widely spoken in Paraguay. Guaraní both structures and punctures the book, surfacing in a sequence of jokes that double as poems, and introducing but leaving unresolved ambient questions about local histories of militarism, masculine bravado, and the outlook of the campos. Cutting across borders of every kind, Baéz’s poems attempt to reconcile the incomplete, contradictory, and inconsistent experiences of a speaking self that resides between languages, nations, and generations. Yaguareté White is a lyrical exploration of Paraguayan American identity and what it means to see through a colored whiteness in all of its tangled contradictions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you ready for Jesus' Second Coming? I am utterly convinced that if Jesus returned today, most of the people who call themselves Christians would be lost. While they believe themselves to be saved, and are told by their church that they are saved, they do not pass the test the Jesus left for us. The Bible tells us that Jesus himself will judge us according to his words. But Jesus' words have been set aside by the church as the church points people to walk on the Broad way that will lead to destruction. Which road are you on? This book is a must read because your eternal life depends on your response to the the teachings of Jesus as I illustrate in this book. This book will show you where the 'church' has gone wrong and how to get through the Narrow Gate on to the Narrow way that leads to life. I will also share with you how the church today is Laodicea.
