Download or read book That Dog Don t Hunt written by Jim Newman and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2021-10-07 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jim Newman, a natural born story-teller, takes the reader through joyful and humorous stories about life at the hunt camp, hunting culture, and the joys of nature and wildlife. The stories are a mix of childhood memories, folklore, facts, fiction, and laughter, with the odd political rant thrown in. This book presents hunting in the light of the harvest of food, and the emphasis is on enjoying the beauty of nature in the company of family and good friends. The stories are very human, with lots of self-deprecating (sometimes laugh-out-loud) humour throughout. Readers will learn how not to choose a hunting dog, how to spend a lot of money preparing not to hunt turkeys, and how to find bears without even trying. On a more serious note, Jim talks about how to increase the longevity of a hunt camp through great communal meals, how to make hunting a multi-generational family tradition, and the importance of standing up for hunters in conversations about gun legislation. And to those already familiar with Jim Newman’s regular column in The Nipissing Reader, the wait is over!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cowboy drifter Rick Cooper is on the run in the California desert when he meets Gladys Ryan, an eccentric widow who offers him a ride in her classic 1970 Mustang. Before long she convinces him to accompany her to Northern Ontario to help refurbish her hunting lodge, promising him a share of the upcoming season's profits and hinting at more. The offer is too good to pass up. Rick takes to life in the bush, working hard to make the lodge successful. In his free hours he hunts birds, reluctantly taking Bucky, Gladys' ancient golden retriever along with him. But when the lucrative season comes to an end, Gladys refuses to share the profits, instead offering the hired man a few thousand dollars in wages. In the middle of a drinking bout, an argument ensues. Rick shoves Gladys and she falls and hits her head and dies. He takes her body into the remote bush and disposes of her trademark Mustang, telling anyone who asks that she has gone off on her annual snowbird vacation. No one seems suspicious and it looks like the perfect crime. Rick seems to have it all figured out...except what to do with Bucky...

Download or read book What s the Matter with Kansas written by Thomas Frank and published by Picador. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of "our most insightful social observers"* cracks the great political mystery of our time: how conservatism, once a marker of class privilege, became the creed of millions of ordinary Americans With his acclaimed wit and acuity, Thomas Frank turns his eye on what he calls the "thirty-year backlash"—the populist revolt against a supposedly liberal establishment. The high point of that backlash is the Republican Party's success in building the most unnatural of alliances: between blue-collar Midwesterners and Wall Street business interests, workers and bosses, populists and right-wingers. In asking "what 's the matter with Kansas?"—how a place famous for its radicalism became one of the most conservative states in the union—Frank, a native Kansan and onetime Republican, seeks to answer some broader American riddles: Why do so many of us vote against our economic interests? Where's the outrage at corporate manipulators? And whatever happened to middle-American progressivism? The questions are urgent as well as provocative. Frank answers them by examining pop conservatism—the bestsellers, the radio talk shows, the vicious political combat—and showing how our long culture wars have left us with an electorate far more concerned with their leaders' "values" and down-home qualities than with their stands on hard questions of policy. A brilliant analysis—and funny to boot—What's the Matter with Kansas? presents a critical assessment of who we are, while telling a remarkable story of how a group of frat boys, lawyers, and CEOs came to convince a nation that they spoke on behalf of the People. *Los Angeles Times

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Terrance Robinson is a well-known artist and professor among his peers and colleagues, his art exhibitions, production and research has never stopped, but it has intensified with writing being at the forefront. Thus, creativity is psychological freedom of the senses and spirit that one cannot control or shut down, which includes writing. With this being mentioned, it predetermined him to explore various genres of expression beyond a flat surface or mass of materials. Knowing these possibilities inspired him to write after orchestrating press releases and marketing materials for several decades. This new venture has led him to write an autobiography that was lost and never recovered at a public library in the Carolinas. He did not stop because of those circumstances, but it empowered him to become even more prolific in writing. This put him in a state-of-mind which there was no returning or surrendering; Robinson was strong-minded to write regardless of his difficulties, because this was what he wanted to achieve among many other accolades. Now, one year and some months later, he birth “Unapologetic” into the atmosphere of poetic literature and the spoken word that’s pressed between these covers; it’s simply breath-taking. The author takes the audience on a journey from positive junctures to real life-changing messages that uplift and even relate to life among masses. His poetic voice is strong but subtle and can touch the hearts, minds and souls of all ages; it is something in this book for all people, regardless of nationality or geographical location. Yes, this is the one poetry book that you must collect because it is amazingly rare among books of today!

Download or read book I Don t Smoke Enough to Quit An Epic of Diminished Proportions written by Robert Dreesen and published by Paul Dry Books. This book was released on 2023-02-07 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I’m still marveling at not only the artistry of this book, the playful erudition of it, the sheer entertainment of the storytelling, but also the life (harrowing and joyous) and place that inspired it. If that life wouldn't create a writer, I don't know what would. The details are terrific . . . Dreesen has captured a time and a place perfectly."—Ladette Randolph, Editor-In-Chief, Ploughshares “And what I’m about to tell you can’t be told straight, so needs to be contained by form, for the tale is messy and meandering, if not downright weedy and windy as all the characters who blew through our lives back then and who we had to bend into, grimacing and hunched over, holding hands so as not to lose one another, sieve.” In his imaginative memoir-in-verse, Robert Dreesen captures the stop-and-start rhythm of growing up in his family’s 24-hour truck stop and drinkin’ and dancin’ bar alongside the Pan-American Highway in northeastern Nebraska. In a life that can be described as picaresque, Kenny, Rose, and their eight kids make their way through a world rich with farmers and ranchers, writers and painters, drunks and ne’er-do-wells, horses and dogs, imagined visits from poet-sages, insufficient money (but not poverty), fights, siblings, honor, booze, and the Missouri River.

Download or read book I Heart Oklahoma written by Roy Scranton and published by Soho Press. This book was released on 2019 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A bleeding-edge contemporary novel that dives into the heart of Donald Trump's America. Three artists set out across the country to make a movie. There's Suzie, the jaded writer; Jim, a corporate suit-turned-video artist who survived 9/11; and a hipster videographer, Remy. They team up to make a piece of 'road movie' video/performance art about about 'freedom and democracy and starting over and making a clean break and moving forward and making America great again.' From that jumping-off point, Roy Scranton takes us on a provocative, genderqueer, shape-shifting response to our current moment. [This] is a non-linear, formally daring book about art, guns, American landscapes, American history, and American stupidity, that moves from a bleeding-edge look at our current moment to a furious, Faulknerian retelling of the Charlie Starkweather spree killings of the 1950s, capturing along the way in its fragmented, mesmerizing form, the violence that has always been near the heart of the American dream"--
