Download or read book English Schoolboy Stories written by Benjamin Watson and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A surprising number of classic English authors wrote school stories, from Mary Shelley and Maria Edgeworth through Evelyn Waugh and Stephen Spender. Coverage spans two centuries of fiction set in the endowed private schools called Public Schools in England. Famous works such as Tom Brown's Schooldays by Hughes and Stalky & Co. by Kipling are described, along with books of accomplished but lesser-known writers such as Charles Turley, Eden Phillpotts, Talbot Baines Reed, and Desmond Coke. In addition to their pure entertainment value, these novels preserve a wealth of cultural information: class attitudes, sexual development, sports history, consciousness of Empire, role of the Established Church, study of the Classics. Biographical sketches are provided for most of the authors.

Download or read book Thirteenth Kid Lucky or Unlucky written by Joann Ellen Sisco and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-05-21 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book of THE TRILOGY OF WHISBONE Hollow u.s.a. BOOK ONE: THIRTEENTH KID LUCKY OR UNLUCKY! Rowenna Moffat: Meets Angel BOOK TWO: GIRL WITH THE GUN Rowenna Moffat: Student Nurse BOOK THREE: LAND OF BARBED WIRE AND BLOOD Rowenna Moffat: World War One: Europe It might seem amazing that a small Arkansas girl could learn to attune herself to angelic assistance. There seems, however, that there is no minimum age for training to begin, and if angels can appreciate human traits, they might have approved of Granddads influence on Rowennas younger years. Her first true conversation with a heavenly being might have been the time when when she was in the top of a massive oak tree picking muscadine grapes but it was certainly not the last time.

Download or read book How to Get Lucky Harriman Classics written by Max Gunther and published by Harriman House Limited. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Max Gunther's lost classic, now in a new Classics edition. Some people think you're either born lucky or not. But what if you could actively get lucky? As Max Gunther shows in this page-turning classic, some people really are luckier than others - and not by accident. Lucky people arrange their lives in characteristic patterns. They tend to position themselves in the path of onrushing luck; they tend to go where events are moving fastest and where they can find their lucky break Lucky people take risks but not silly ones. They stick with a cause, a job, or a partner, but not when all hope is lost. In short, they move with life, not against it. This book gives you 13 different techniques by which you can discover and take advantage of life's good breaks, while minimising the effects of its bad ones.

Download or read book Evidence for Psi written by Damien Broderick and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-11-19 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Psi" is the term used by researchers for a variety of demonstrable but elusive psychic phenomena. This collection of essays provides a detailed survey of the evidence for psi at the level of scientific examination. Key features of apparent psi phenomena are reviewed, including precognition and remote perception (knowledge of future or distant events that cannot be inferred from present information), presentiment (physiological responses to stimuli that have not yet occurred), the effects of human emotions on globally dispersed machines, the possible impact of local sidereal time on psi performance, and the familiar feeling of knowing who is calling on the phone. Special attention is given to those phenomena that make it difficult for scientists to get a clear understanding of psi. The body of psi research, while complex and frustrating, is shown to contain sufficiently compelling positive evidence to convince the rational open-minded observer that psi is real, and that one or more physical processes probably underlie observed psi phenomena.

But hatred of the Irish runs deep, and the town's mayor and sheriff betray them. The outlaws escape, wounding Carlow and killing his lifelong friend.

Consumed by vengeance, Carlow rides off in a fury, throwing away both the stones and his Ranger's star. Returning to the hometown that had always resented him -- and ultimately betrayed him -- he is out for blood. And even his icy cool demeanor cannot quench his burning desire for revenge....
