Download or read book Craigslist Confessional written by Helena Dea Bala and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Touching.” —The New York Times For fans of Humans of New York and PostSecret, a collection of raw, urgent, and heartfelt stories, shared anonymously. Helena Dea Bala was an exhausted and isolated DC lobbyist, suffocating under the weight of her student loan debt, when she decided to split her lunch with a man who often panhandled near her office. They chatted effortlessly as they ate; there were no half-truths or white lies, and no fear of judgment. Helena felt connected and unburdened in a way she hadn’t in years. Inspired, she posted an ad on Craigslist promising to listen, anonymously and for free, to whatever the speaker felt he or she couldn’t tell anyone else. Emails from people desperate to connect flooded her inbox, and she listened. Within months, Helena quit her job, deferred her loans, and dove into listening full time. The forty first-person confessions in this book are vivid, intimate, and real; they range from devastating traumas, to lost loves, to reflections on hard choices. Some accounts are quotidian, like that of one increasingly estranged husband: “I want to feel that we’re not just roommates—that we’re not just waiting for the kids to grow up so that we can move on.” Others are deeply disconcerting, like that of a sex addict employed by a religious organization and several are heartening, like that of a mother who dares to hope that her daughter, born with life-threatening heart defects, will one day walk down the aisle: “Sometimes you need to have the audacity to believe that it will all be okay, that it is okay to have the same kinds of dreams as everyone else.” In its complex portrayal of the common human experience, Craigslist Confessional challenges us to explore the depths of our vulnerability and expand the borders of our empathy.

Download or read book Lincoln Assassination Series Box Set written by Sidney St. James and published by BeeBop Publishing Group. This book was released on 2020 with total page 1430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lincoln Assassination Series Books 1 – 5 Written as Creative Historical Nonfiction BOX SET President Abraham Lincoln said, "It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt!" President Jefferson Davis said, "I worked night and day for twelve years to prevent the War, but I could not. The North was mad and blind, would not let us govern ourselves, and so the War came." BOOK 1 – THE LOST CAUSE – The Lincoln Assassination The assassination of Abraham Lincoln on April 14, 1865, and his death at 7:22 am on April 15 is covered in this first novel. His funeral train back home is narrated along with the ending punishment phase of the conspirators. Much of the life of Jefferson Davis is brought to life, including how the United States didn't fly a flag at half-mast honoring him. He was the only former Secretary of War not given this respect in the history of the United States. BOOK 2: PURSUIT AND CAPTURE OF JOHN WILKES BOOTH General Robert E. Lee said, "There's a terrible war coming. These young men who have never seen War can't wait for it to happen. But, I tell you, I wish that I owned every slave in the South, for I would free them all to avoid this War!" This novel will follow John Wilkes Booth and the federal forces' extensive manhunt to capture him. Still, there are questions. In the memoirs of one of the soldiers who captured the assassin, said the man they killed had a "red" mustache. Booth's, of course, was black. BOOK 3: LEWIS THORNTON POWELL – The Conspiracy to Kill Abraham Lincoln Winston Churchill once said, "History is written by the victors." From all indication, enough preliminary witnesses placed Lewis Thornton Powell in the same room with Secretary of State Seward. William E. Doster took over representation for the defense of Powell. Doster was a graduate of Yale and Harvard and the former provost marshal for the District of Columbia. BOOK 4: KNIGHTS OF THE GOLDEN CIRCLE – A Most Secretive Organization This book is more of a reference manual for writing the other four novels in the series. You can't understand the Lincoln Assassination without an understanding of the Knights of the Golden Circle, the most powerful and secret society in all America at the time of the Civil War. The organization grew out of Southern Rights Clubs in the South who were mostly interested in opening up more territory to slavery. The actual words written in this reference novel were written by a member of the Order who never revealed his name. BOOK 5: MARY ELIZABETH SURRATT – First Woman Executed by the Federal Government The entire court case for Mary Elizabeth Surratt is depicted in this novel, the fifth novel in the Lincoln Assassination Series. The reader can follow the trial and determine for themselves from the evidence and the testimony of the witnesses if she should be found guilty or innocent. A military tribunal, rather than a civilian court, was chosen as the prosecutorial venue. Why? President Andrew Johnson did not declare an end to the War Between the States until August 1866. Was Mary Elizabeth Surratt in the wrong place at the wrong time? Was the United States Government out for revenge… out for blood! President Andrew Johnson said, "Mary Elizabeth Surratt kept the nest that hatched the egg!" This quote suggests that Johnson was bolstering his belief that she was guilty and deserved the harshest sentence allowed. An exciting conclusion in this five-novel series on the Lincoln Assassination…

The Johnstown Flood is the classic history of an American tragedy that became a scandal in the age of the Robber Barons, the preventable flood that destroyed a town and killed 2,000 people. Mornings on Horseback is the brilliant National Book Award–winning biography of young Theodore Roosevelt’s metamorphosis from sickly child to a vigorous, intense man poised to become a national hero and then president. Path Between the Seas is the epic National Book Award–winning history of the heroic successes, tragic failures, and astonishing engineering and medical feats that made the Panama Canal possible. Truman is the Pulitzer Prize–winning biography of Harry Truman, the complex and courageous man who rose from modest origins to make momentous decisions as president, from dropping the atomic bomb to going to war in Korea. A special bonus is included: The Course of Human Events. In this Jefferson Lecture in the Humanities, David McCullough draws on his personal experience as a historian to acknowledge the crucial importance of writing in history’s enduring impact and influence, and he affirms the significance of history in teaching us about human nature through the ages.
