Download or read book Sabal Palms and the Southern Squall written by Terry Overton and published by Ambassador International. This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elaine Smith lived in the small coastal town of Sabal Palms long enough to know when to worry about a squall and when to simply close the windows and wait for it to pass. This one would be significant. It would be significant in terms of damage, but that was to be expected. What no one expected was the profound effect it would have on the lives of people from the Texas coast to New York City. Positive qualities of humanity are often displayed during times of natural disaster. But a supernatural power had attached to this storm and subsequently worked within the hearts of the most needy, the most lonely, and the most sinister. The lives of four delightful women, a homeless teen, a rebellious son, a grieving lover who is at the bottom, a son who lost his faith, and a hired murderer are all intertwined in the aftereffects of a Category 3 hurricane thanks to a few passages written by one determined woman.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Betty is sure that Ida Lou does not belong in their church when the woman shows up to the Good Friday service with her small dog in tow. But before she knows what’s happening, Betty is pushed into helping the woman as she deals with the sudden hospitalization of her husband. Having lost her own husband just one year ago, Betty is chosen as the perfect person to help walk through this valley with the newcomer—along with the other women of the WUFHs (Women United For Him). Sarah McAdams knows her husband loves her. He just loses his temper sometimes. It comes with the stress of being a highly recognized police officer. But when Sarah makes the decision that this is not the life she wants for her young son, will she be able to get out alive? Where can she go? And who will help her? God works in mysterious ways—and through ordinary people. The town of Prosper is about to experience some drama—and it all starts with a dog who comes to church.

Download or read book Why I Write written by George Orwell and published by Renard Press Ltd. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Orwell set out ‘to make political writing into an art’, and to a wide extent this aim shaped the future of English literature – his descriptions of authoritarian regimes helped to form a new vocabulary that is fundamental to understanding totalitarianism. While 1984 and Animal Farm are amongst the most popular classic novels in the English language, this new series of Orwell’s essays seeks to bring a wider selection of his writing on politics and literature to a new readership. In Why I Write, the first in the Orwell’s Essays series, Orwell describes his journey to becoming a writer, and his movement from writing poems to short stories to the essays, fiction and non-fiction we remember him for. He also discusses what he sees as the ‘four great motives for writing’ – ‘sheer egoism’, ‘aesthetic enthusiasm’, ‘historical impulse’ and ‘political purpose’ – and considers the importance of keeping these in balance. Why I Write is a unique opportunity to look into Orwell’s mind, and it grants the reader an entirely different vantage point from which to consider the rest of the great writer’s oeuvre. 'A writer who can – and must – be rediscovered with every age.' — Irish Times

Book excerpt: Ernest Henry Shackleton's 'South! - The Story of Shackleton's Last Expedition, 1914-1917' is a gripping tale of survival and courage in the face of unimaginable challenges. Shackleton's literary style is both descriptive and heartfelt, allowing readers to vividly imagine the harsh conditions of the Antarctic landscape and the struggles of his crew. The book is a classic example of exploration literature, capturing the essence of the Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration. Shackleton's attention to detail and ability to convey the emotions of his crew make this book a truly immersive read. Ernest Henry Shackleton, a seasoned explorer, led the ill-fated Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition. His personal experience during the expedition, including the loss of his ship and the heroic rescue of his crew, inspired him to write 'South!' as a testament to the indomitable human spirit. Shackleton's determination and leadership qualities shine through in this vivid account of survival against all odds. I highly recommend 'South! - The Story of Shackleton's Last Expedition, 1914-1917' to readers who are interested in true stories of adventure, leadership, and resilience. Shackleton's narrative prowess and the incredible story of survival in the Antarctic make this book a must-read for anyone fascinated by the exploration of the unknown.
Download or read book Samedi s Knapsack written by Gaylord Dold and published by Gaylord Dold. This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hypnotic and gritty ninth Mitch Roberts Crime Novel. "Roberts lay in the dark, his mind running clocklike in nearly perfect and meaningless circles. On the floor beside his single bed was a leather suitcase bound by three leather straps, secured with a beautiful brass lock. He had packed the night before, five pairs of jeans, some hiking and fishing shorts, a pair of moccasins, one suit and a single dress shirt, assorted socks and underwear, two ties, now slightly soiled, his shaving kit and utilities, several paper novels, including most of Beckett in Pan editions, a Glock 9mm pistol stripped into six sections, each section well oiled and wrapped in heavy newspaper, each wrapped part then twined inside black plastic. He had broken down his rod and reel and had stored them in an olive-green carrying case, all of it ready for the long flight to Miami." After a long stay abroad and a love affair that fell apart, Mitch Roberts is headed home. Back to his ranch, his horses and maybe, to being a private eye again. But if Roberts is looking forward to an uneventful life, he has farther to go than a return to southern Colorado. His problems start when a beautiful flight attendant suggests he meet her for a drink at her favorite bar in a stopover in Miami. The bar’s parking lot, however, comes equipped with two thugs who knock Mitch out, take his passport, credit cards, and every cent in his pocket, and drive off in his rental car. Desperate, Mitch calls the only person he knows in Miami, a former college acquaintance named Bobby Hilliard, a rather sleazy character who has made a lot of money in questionable ways, and is now an art dealer. When Mitch finds the seductive flight attendant at the man’s mansion, he is quick to realize he has been set up. But an offer of a sorely needed big fee tempts him, and he accepts a job offer from Hilliard. Hilliard’s agent, sent to Haiti with money to buy a large number of Haitian paintings has disappeared. Mitch’s job is to find the agent and buy paintings to replace those that were lost. But Haiti is dismaying. Police officials openly scoff at Mitch. He is sickened by the tropical heat and by the atmosphere of poverty, fear and paranoia. When Mitch finds that the agent has been murdered he does what he must, aided only by a Haitian guide, poor but educated, and a loyal man with whom Mitch travels the country.
