Download or read book The Rage in Albion written by Cecelia Peters and published by Author House. This book was released on 2013-07-26 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carrying on from where she left of with The Muse, Cecelia Peters eagerly awaited collection The Rage in Albion ventures once more into the real, taking readers to another place with splendid fantasy, stark observations and uncompromising reality. With the title poem The Rage in Albion Peters pens eloquently her observations of the curious and enigmatic homeless man under the bridge, whose placards have become his voice, so far read in over 20 countries, this is Peters most famous rhyme to date. Thrillingly dark and evocative, she uplifts the reader giving a feeling of awe and enchantment, then gradually back down to reality with graceful melancholy. Peters introduces new characters to intrigue, such as the well publicised, The Woman Who Cried, and a tribute to Paul Sweeney, the London Hackney Carriage Driver, The Driving Seat of Knowledge, together with the un-noticing Janet, the much maligned Lizzie and the inimitable Cool Breeze. Similarly, with The Guide Peters takes readers to her most secret place. Part story and part rhyme The Guide shows a side of the Poet rarely seen, guiding you through each stage of her recurring dream, and spiritual encounter. Enchanting and thought provoking, The Rage in Albion combines the real with the surreal. Once again a fitting tribute to the Bardess of Langley whose fearless approach has become her trademark.

Download or read book Albion s Seed written by David Hackett Fischer and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1991-03-14 with total page 981 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fascinating book is the first volume in a projected cultural history of the United States, from the earliest English settlements to our own time. It is a history of American folkways as they have changed through time, and it argues a thesis about the importance for the United States of having been British in its cultural origins. While most people in the United States today have no British ancestors, they have assimilated regional cultures which were created by British colonists, even while preserving ethnic identities at the same time. In this sense, nearly all Americans are "Albion's Seed," no matter what their ethnicity may be. The concluding section of this remarkable book explores the ways that regional cultures have continued to dominate national politics from 1789 to 1988, and still help to shape attitudes toward education, government, gender, and violence, on which differences between American regions are greater than between European nations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a hero becomes a slave, his greatest enemy might be his only hope… Albion Rasendin, the renowned general known as the Winter Fox, has only one option to save the lives of his men: surrender. After a war that nearly ripped two nations apart, Albion knows he'll be executed. The victor, Prince Treynar Massan, has other plans. Locking a slave collar around Albion's throat, the prince hopes to sully the legend of the cunning and elusive Winter Fox. But Draven, the prince's bastard half-brother, sees only an act of dishonor and the undoing of the man he once secretly loved. It breaks Draven's heart to see Albion enslaved and humiliated. Before the war, he had studied tactics under the Winter Fox, until family honor demanded he use those tactics to defeat him. But family honor can be a slippery thing, and secrets don't always stay hidden. When Draven learns that the war against Albion might have been unjust, he uncovers secrets he was never meant to learn. Yet, his love for Albion cannot be destroyed by lies and obsession. He's forced to make choices that will shake his world to the core, creating both a nightmare and, just maybe, one final hope for a life with the man he loves... Reader note: this gay fantasy romance contains intense emotional elements, a trigger-warning scene, enemies-to-lovers themes, and reader discretion is advised.

Book excerpt: In this easy-to-read revised and expanded edition of Exit the Maze, Dr. Donna Marks makes the revolutionary claim that there is only one addiction with many faces, and the key to overcoming addiction is self-love. Millions of lives are lost to addiction every year, causing more direct and indirect deaths than any other illness. In a world where many things are uncertain, we do know this: There are many kinds of addiction, and in spite of treatment and everything else we’re doing, addiction is only increasing. Dr. Donna Marks, a renowned psychotherapist, addictions counselor, and teacher of A Course in Miracles for more than thirty years, merges her professional experience and her own personal history of substance dependency to offer a single revolutionary solution to all addictions in this expanded and revised edition of Exit the Maze. No matter what someone is addicted to—alcohol, prescription or illegal drugs, smoking, working, gambling, and so forth—loving yourself is the key to recovery. This doesn’t mean the road is easy or a few acts of self-care will do the trick; the journey to true self-love includes delving deep into your past trauma to understand where your addiction began, addressing those fear-based traumas with compassion and forgiveness, exchanging bad habits with beneficial ones, and staying committed to the recovery process. Allow love to guide you through the maze of addiction and back to living your best life.
