Download or read book The Silver Dollar Kid written by John Houston Batchelor and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-04-04 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is not another saga of the Old West or a who-done-it, nor is it a children's book, but simply the true story of my unusual life. It is as accurate, honest, and true as far as my memory permits. I will be judged harshly for some for my actions, but it is not about right or wrong or good or bad; it is only about what happened and led me to develop into the person that I have become through my many adventures and what I did about them. I have no intention of trying to flower it up, to be more appealing. It is not a fictional story. I have included situations that stick out the most in my mind and just omitted many other experiences that were interesting to me but probably not to others. I have also just omitted some names of those who do not wish to be identified. My intention was not to embarrass anybody else, but just maybe myself. It is all now just water under the bridge, and I couldn't go back and change anything, even if I wanted to, which I don't think I would, except for some very minor things that I regret. Since it is a true story, it is R-rated and not suitable for children to read. No, its not porn either!

Book excerpt: The Coin series continues It all started with a coin, but not just any coin.... For those struggling in the harsh frontier landscape a silver dollar can mean the difference between life, and death. The Coin series follows the epic journey of a single dollar as it passes from hand to hand changing lives. Some the coin will break, others it will enrich, at least for a time, but in every case the coin always moves on, because the coin was never meant for keeping. In Book Two we pick up the coin in the dusty streets of Omaha where it’s been keeping company with a lady of evening. Later the coin will travel west in the pocket of a cowhand, and onward to the village of a plains tribe, and finding its way into the hands of a Sioux warrior. Who the coin encounters and how they inevitably pass the coin along is all part of this unique tale. Fortunes will be won, lost and plundered, as the coin continues on its seemingly random path. The Silver Dollar, Book 2 is an exciting new episode in the tale of a coin and its owners throughout the wild west of the 1800's. It is unique, heartbreaking and packed with the historical details you have come to expect from best selling author, WR Benton.

Twelve-year-old Lowen Grover, a budding comic-book artist, is still reeling from the shooting death of his friend Abe when he stumbles across an article about a former mill town giving away homes for just one dollar. It not only seems like the perfect escape from Flintlock and all of the awful memories associated with the city, but an opportunity for his mum to run her very own business. Fortunately, his family is willing to give it a try. But is the Dollar Program too good to be true? The homes are in horrible shape, and the locals are less than welcoming. Will Millville and the dollar house be the answer to the Grovers’ troubles? Or will they find they’ve traded one set of problems for another?

His country burning with war, his family shattered, a young man strikes off on his own and builds a legend with his fists, a pistol, knife, and long gun. This collection includes the classic westerns Trail of the Mountain Man and Return of the Mountain Man, long unavailable and here together for the first time in one action-packed volume ... Where There’s Gold, There’s Blood, Bullets, and Smoke When the Missouri farm boy named Jensen came west, he started fighting, surviving, and learning every brutal step of the way. He learned from a mountain man named Preacher. He learned from Indians. And from outlaws. And he learned that nothing burns the souls of men faster than the lure of glimmering gold. From one ramshackle frontier mountain town to another, Smoke sees gold strikes—and gold fever—drawing crooks and cold-blooded killers from across the nation. Faced with an explosion of horrifying violence—along with some demons from his past—Smoke has no choice but to lay down the law. Once he does, it doesn’t matter how many men and guns the outlaws bring. Because if Smoke Jensen has learned anything, it’s this: in a vast, savage land, you don’t back down, don’t give up, and don’t stop shooting until the last bad man goes to his Maker.

Download or read book Collected Stories written by Martin Green and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-04 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories in this volume are in three sections. "Retirement Stories" are about senior citizens, such as a retiree prompted by a college survey to examine his past ("Mr. Maple's Good Life"), a retiree prompted to think about human connections after a chance meeting with "The Lady from Australia" and a retiree who sees a chance for revenge when the ex-boss who fired him moves next door ("New Neighbors"). "Left-Over Stories" are those I couldn't fit into Volume I. These include a story telling you how to make "Money", worth the price of the book alone, and a trilogy continuing the story of the young man in "Being in Love" with "Getting Married" and "Struggling On" in the early married years. The third section has stories written just for fun, which I hope, will be fun to read. There's a ghost story, a vampire story, a love potion story, a magic ring story and more. In the last story, "Unfinished Business", a writer tries to outwit death.
