Book excerpt: Often times it is so difficult that it becomes a 'do or die' game. Running for office and staying there becomes personal. So much so, that it isn't uncommon to be courted by higher ranking members of political parties. This is how fair warning for repercussions occurs. This is what often times happens behind the scenes of the political machine. It is the give and take methodology to holding public office. However, the message may seem simple, a politician either does what they are told, or risks losing it all. For many in politics, it becomes difficult to maintain a "no strings attached" philosophy to governing when being a member of the political machine. Breaking away is risky. Although it is the political reformer who is able to break the ties that binds politicians. These are the politicians, the modern day Abraham Lincolns that are able to hold to an oath. For the very few in public office that follow this way of thinking, this is what is known as the solemn vow.

Book excerpt: A search for a man armed with a rifle that hasn’t been shot since the war of 1812 leads to an investigation that takes Marc Edwards from a newspaper office into the mansions of the Family Compact, and even to the local brewery, as the clues he uncovers point closer and closer to home. Now lieutenant in charge of security at Government House in Toronto, Marc Edwards is eager for action in both his personal and professional life. His letters to Beth Smallman in Crawford Corners have gone unanswered and writing speeches for Lieutenant Governor Francis Bond Head is not the stuff of excitement. Then, during an election speech by Bond Head, a shot fells a government minister sitting just behind him and Marc on the hustings. Marc’s troop gallops after an armed man who flees the scene, killing him when he points his rifle at Marc’s chest. Then they discover that the rifle has not been fired since the war of 1812. Mortified by his troop’s mistake, Marc accepts the help of Horatio Cobb, one of Toronto’s three constables in its brand new police force. He also accepts the affections of Eliza Dewart-Smythe, who is almost, but not quite, as beguiling as Beth. His investigation takes him from William Lyon Mackenzie’s newspaper office into the mansions of the Family Compact, and to the local brewery, as the clues he uncovers point closer and closer to home.

Download or read book The Spirit of the Vikings written by Anonymous and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-05-18 with total page 3108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the pages of 'The Spirit of the Vikings' lies a comprehensive compilation of Norse literary works, providing a profound insight into the formidable and enigmatic world of Viking culture. This anthology brings together an array of epic narratives, including the sagas of kings and heroes, tales of voyages, familial conflicts, migrations, and the feats that define the ancient Nordic tapestry. Interwoven into these narratives are the Elder and Younger Eddas, presenting an invaluable perspective on the Norse mythological canon and elevating the reader's understanding of texts that are integral to the historical and literary context of the Viking Age. The inclusion of Norse ballads and mythology further illuminates the cultural ethos and spiritual beliefs that powered the Vikings' lives and afterlives, capturing the raw essence of a people steadfast in their convictions and honor. In an enigmatic decision befitting the lore it contains, the author of 'The Spirit of the Vikings' has chosen anonymity, yet the work speaks volumes of a keen editor with a profound understanding of Norse antiquity. The amalgamation of the sagas and Eddas suggests a dedication to preserving collective memory and a deep respect for the storytelling tradition that has kept these tales alive through the ages. The author may have deliberately faded into obscurity to highlight the collective voice of the Norse people, ensuring that the focus remains squarely on the content rather than the compiler, an act that mirrors the Norse veneration for their shared heritage and lore over individual celebrity. 'The Spirit of the Vikings' is an indispensable literary odyssey for enthusiasts of epic literature, historians of medieval Scandinavia, or anyone fascinated by the fabled Viking era. It is not merely an anthology but a bridge across time, connecting modern-day readers with the ancient sagas and myths that shaped a civilization steeped in bravery, exploration, and spiritual depth. This tome is a treasure for those seeking to imbue their intellect with the profound narratives that are as much a part of the Northern landscape as the fjords and the midnight sun. Join the odyssey, embrace the ethos, and allow the spirit of the Vikings to resonate through the corridors of time.
