Book excerpt: “An enthralling conclusion to this superb trilogy, displaying an exceptional combination of originality, magic, adventure, character, and drama.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) King Shrewd is dead at the hands of his son Regal. As is Fitz—or so his enemies and friends believe. But with the help of his allies and his beast magic, he emerges from the grave, deeply scarred in body and soul. The kingdom also teeters toward ruin: Regal has plundered and abandoned the capital, while the rightful heir, Prince Verity, is lost to his mad quest—perhaps to death. Only Verity’s return—or the heir his princess carries—can save the Six Duchies. But Fitz will not wait. Driven by loss and bitter memories, he undertakes a quest: to kill Regal. The journey casts him into deep waters, as he discovers wild currents of magic within him—currents that will either drown him or make him something more than he was.

Download or read book Southern White Ministers and the Civil Rights Movement written by Elaine Allen Lechtreck and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2018-05-29 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1963, the Sunday after four black girls were killed by a bomb in a Birmingham church, George William Floyd, a Church of Christ minister, preached a sermon based on the Golden Rule. He pronounced that Jesus Christ was asking Christians to view the bombing from the perspective of their black neighbors and asserted, "We don't realize it yet, but because Martin Luther King Jr. is preaching nonviolence, which is Jesus's way, someday Martin Luther King Jr. will be seen as the best friend the white man in the South has ever had." During the sermon, members of the congregation yelled, "You devil, you!" and, immediately, Floyd was dismissed. Although not every anti-segregation white minister was as outspoken as Pastor Floyd, many signed petitions, organized interracial groups, or preached gently from a gospel of love and justice. Those who spoke and acted outright on behalf of the civil rights movement were harassed, beaten, and even jailed. Based on interviews and personal memoirs, Southern White Ministers and the Civil Rights Movement traces the efforts of these clergymen who--deeply moved by the struggle of African Americans--looked for ways to reconcile the history of discrimination and slavery with Christian principles and to help their black neighbors. While many understand the role political leaders on national stages played in challenging the status quo of the South, this book reveals the significant contribution of these ministers in breaking down segregation through preaching a message of love.

Download or read book The Assassin s Doctor written by Robert K. Summers and published by Robert K. Summers. This book was released on 2014-01-29 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Samuel A. Mudd is famous for fixing the broken leg of President Abraham Lincoln's assassin John Wilkes Booth, and subsequently being convicted of conspiring with Booth, along with seven others, in a military trial. He spent four years in a military prison before being pardoned by President Andrew Johnson. Sam Mudd was leading a charmed life before becoming involved with Booth. He had been born into a prosperous Maryland tobacco plantation family, received an excellent education (except for one unfortunate incident at Georgetown College), married well, and received a farm, home, and slaves from his father as a wedding present. Then came the Civil War, the loss of farm income due to the emancipation of slaves in Maryland, two meetings with John Wilkes Booth, and then Booth's sudden appearance at the Mudd farm in the middle of the night seeking help for a broken leg. Booth was later shot and killed by Union Soldiers who had tracked him into Virginia. Dr. Mudd was convicted for aiding Booth's escape by misleading those hunting Booth, telling them he didn't know the man with the broken leg was Booth. But evidence at the trial showed he knew Booth well. The book explores why he misled the authorities. The book describes Dr. Mudd's time at Fort Jefferson, including his attempted escape that landed him in the dungeon, and his heroic work that saved many lives during a terrible yellow fever epidemic at the fort. He was pardoned by President Andrew Johnson in early 1869, in part for his work during the epidemic. After returning home to his wife and children, Dr. Mudd resumed his life as a country doctor and farmer, until passing away in 1883.
