Download or read book Northern Illinoise written by Dave Wischnowsky and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2004-11-12 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Northern IlliNOISE Tales of a Territory Theres noise. And then, theres Northern IlliNOISE the sounds of which are unlike anything else that youll encounter. Anywhere. Take Dave Wischnowskys word for that. Because, from August 2002 to July 2005, the author of the popular Wisch List column for The Daily Times a newspaper located in the picturesque town of Ottawa in the heart of North Central Illinois did nothing but listen to those sounds. And then wrote about every dang story he heard. In Northern IlliNOISE: Tales of a Territory, follow Wischnowsky as he chronicled life and the people who live it in and around La Salle County in north central Illinois. Featured in "Northern IlliNOISE" are 75 of the versatile Wischnowskys award-winning "Wisch List" columns, which cover any and every topic under the sun. From the inspirational to the silly, from the hapless Chicago Cubs to the University of Illinois rollicking basketball program, to the rich history and geography of Northern Illinois, it can all be found along with much, much more in "Northern IlliNOISE." Included among the books scads of terrific tales is the powerful legend of former Ottawa Township High School student Mark Wiebe, a young man diagnosed shortly after birth with the debilitating disease Spinal Muscular Atrophy, which left him for the most part paralyzed and his body weighing only 40 pounds. In spite of his limitations, however, nothing could keep the wheelchair-bound, but utterly-irrepressible Mark and his beloved marbles from carrying more weight in the hearts of others than an entire army of able-bodied men. Marks amazing spirit and story touched thousands both before and after his death at the age of 17 in June 2003. Through "Northern IlliNOISE," youre also invited to follow Wischnowsky, a former award-winning sports writer, as he followed his beloved Chicago Cubs on a wild, wacky, funny and (big surprise) ultimately fruitless cross-country journey through the 2003 and 04 Major League Baseball seasons. From Chicago to Miami to Atlanta to Milwaukee to Denver ... to Despair, Wischnowsky was there for the Cubs entire comitragic playoff run of 2003. And then back again for their high hopes and, of course, ultimate heartbreak during the wild summer of 2004. In addition to Wischnowskys array of "Wisch List" columns, "Northern IlliNOISE" also includes the remarkable tale of "Pilgrim George," a man with a gray, waistlong beard, denim robe and wooden staff who, for the past 34 years, has been walking the earth on a neverending pilgrimage in the name of Jesus Christ. An astounding story of faith, determination and courage, Pilgrim George who has no job, no money, no family and no home relies on the goodwill of others and the grace of God each day as he fulfills the calling he said he received from the Lord more than three decades ago. The 29-year-old Wischnowsky is the winner of a total of 18 editorial awards from 2001-05, including six first-places and one Top 10 National. Through his "Wisch List" columns and now through "Northern IlliNOISE" Wischnowsky has touched lives, moved hearts, and tickled funny bones with a style and passion for writing unlike anything youll find elsewhere. So, cmon ... feel the NOISE.

Download or read book Tales from the Territory Stories of Southeast Alaska written by Robert Kinerk and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2022-08-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Kinerk grew up hearing great Alaska stories. He has recreated many of them in Tales from the Territory. He lived in Alaska from when it was a territory, working as a reporter, as a logger, and an ambulance attendant. He labored in a pulp mill and moonlighted as a night-time disc jockey. His stories are of rugged and often solitary women and men driven by the demands of climate and of distance to rely mostly on themselves. On their own, they thread their way past life's snares and pitfalls. In Tales from the Territory, a reader will discover kids and grown-ups, priests and prostitutes, arsonists and artists working out the adventures and misadventures life presents them. Sometimes they tackle that job rightly, sometimes wrongly. But they always do it humanly, with all the bumps and warts and wanderings that being human entails. They bring to the task of living their accumulated stores of strength and their burdens of frailty. Those burdens and those strengths are at the heart of Tales from the Territory.

Book excerpt: It was a special treat for the passengers to remove themselves from the coach and stretch their legs. Mr. Riddle greeted each of them in spite of the late hour. He gave a bear hug and a pat on the back to Marshal Drew to whom he inquired. Hello Jon how is everything at Boggy Depot. I hear you caught up with the Jabo outt and brought in two of the gang to Judge Parker. I was interested in the state of the other three. Rachel was curious and walked to the water bucket setting on the wooden structure that was built over the well. The station as a courtesy to the passengers had just drawn it full from the well. He motioned to her to take the handle of the gourd that had been fashioned into a dipper. Grasping it she plunged into the bucket and drank from the cool depths of the well. She dipped a second time partly to enable her to hear what Marshall Drews answer was to his question. I had rather been able to bring in the whole lot but it didnt work out that way. I had Choctaw light-horse Captain Josiah Legend to accompany me to the hideout I had located and a shoot-out occurred. They were holed up in a cave with a cow hide covering the entrance. With our repeating ries we separated ourselves and pinned them down in crossre. Light Horse Lieutenant Chockie Billy came later to help us and it was a very short time when they made a break for it. We fatally wounded all but the two I brought in. They knew it was over and threw up their hands to give up. The gun ght itself was short but the tracking is what took so long. A person could get lost in those winding Stair Mountains and never be seen again. I started down In Texas and got some leads and it was a matter of tracking their movements and that is about all of it. You did the Territory a favor in breaking up that gang of thieves and murderers. Those bad men in north Texas come over the Big Red and hide out and we have to deal with them.
