Download or read book Nothing Concealed written by Jarrod Houston and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2022-12-16 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nothing Concealed: Veiled Secrecy Will Be Brought To Light By: Jarrod Houston When he was ten years old, Jarrod stood atop a bridge tug-of-warring with thoughts of jumping—years of sexual abuse and other generational curses had plagued him long enough. Nothing Concealed is an autobiography cataloging the trials and tribulations during the early years of Jarrod Houston’s life. The compelling, descriptive narrative is a coming-of-age story that meets a self-help book, offering a fresh prospective on the acceptance of trauma. Despite sexual abuse, domestic violence, suicide, Jarrod’s story is told through the lens of a child who miraculously maintains his sense of wonder through it all. With his three children and loving wife, Laura, to his daily coaching job, Jarrod Houston is bold, unapologetically authentic, and driven to make a mark on the world. He speaks directly from his heart and strives to be transparent about the struggles he faces. Through his memoir, Houston hopes to reach a larger audience to instill hope in the hearts of those who have endured trauma and allow all to take a moment of self-reflection. Houston believes everyone’s story matters and hopes to ignite a fire within the readers to share theirs. Adversity is inevitable, but Houston is living proof that life can—and will—carry on.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An irreverent black comedy about sex, drugs, murder… and children's baseball. Dwayne Devero is just like you and me, except he simply doesn’t give a s**t any more. He’s had enough. He’s done with people living life wrong. You’ll do it right, or he’ll bury you under the bases at the ballpark where he coaches. It’s just that simple. Tired of poor decisions being made all around him, from the politics of player positions on his son's little league baseball team to the philandering of his wife in his own bedroom, Dwayne decides that breaking is better than bending. What follows is a wild ride full of carnage and revenge, led by a man who will stop at absolutely nothing to bring honor back to his family, his community… and children's baseball. Baseball Dads is a pitch black comedy in which one man takes on the duty of bludgeoning honor back into a sometimes dishonorable world.
Download or read book Tafilet written by Walter Harris and published by . This book was released on 1895 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1895, this book recounts the author's 1893 expedition to the Tafilet oasis in Morocco, one of the largest oases in the world. Previously largely inaccessible (before the invention of the motor car it was at least 10 days' journey south of Fez across the Atlas mountains and the Sahara), Harris took advantage of the Sultan of Morocco Mulai el Hassen's decision to pay a visit to the oasis during the autumn of that year. Throughout the book the author describes in great detail the places he visited and the people he met along the way. There are detailed descriptions of Marrakesh and the villages of the Atlas Mountains, as well as ruminations on the differences between the Arabs and the Berber tribes, and the situation of the Jews. Crossing the desert, Harris reached the Sultan's camp at the edge of the oasis, and there follows a detailed description of the activities of the Sultan and his retinue, their dealings with the troublesome tribes of the area, and accounts of the history, geography and people of Tafilet. The book concludes with the author's return journey to the north, and an account of the events following the Sultan's own return from the oasis and his subsequent death. Painting as it does a vivid picture of the state of Morocco at the very end of the 19th century, Walter B. Harris's Tafilet is sure to be of great interest to all those fascinated by the history of this unique and diverse North African country.

Book excerpt: Meet the girl who’s “Most Likely to Make Everything Worse.” TV writer Ellie Jenkins worked her butt off to put her nerdy, outcast teen years behind her. So there’s a certain delicious irony in that she works for a hit show about popular high school kids when she was So. Not. Cool. And now she’s been offered the promotion of a lifetime—if she attends her reunion. But Ellie’s memory of High School Hell isn’t nearly as traumatic as the reality . . . No one at the reunion is what Ellie expected. Not her ex-best friend, who still has the ability to see right through Ellie. And not her secret crush, who has only gotten hotter, sexier, and way more complicated. The only way she’s going to survive this whole weird ordeal is by fixing her bad high school karma, kissing the boy who got away, and getting the hell out of Ohio for good. But Ellie’s discovering that in real life, she can’t just rewrite the script.
