Download or read book Life Traces of the Georgia Coast written by Anthony J. Martin and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 715 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered what left behind those prints and tracks on the seashore, or what made those marks or dug those holes in the dunes? Life Traces of the Georgia Coast is an up-close look at these traces of life and the animals and plants that made them. It tells about how the tracemakers lived and how they interacted with their environments. This is a book about ichnology (the study of such traces) and a wonderful way to learn about the behavior of organisms, living and long extinct. Life Traces presents an overview of the traces left by modern animals and plants in this biologically rich region; shows how life traces relate to the environments, natural history, and behaviors of their tracemakers; and applies that knowledge toward a better understanding of the fossilized traces that ancient life left in the geologic record. Augmented by illustrations of traces made by both ancient and modern organisms, the book shows how ancient trace fossils directly relate to modern traces and tracemakers, among them, insects, grasses, crabs, shorebirds, alligators, and sea turtles. The result is an aesthetically appealing and scientifically grounded book that will serve as source both for scientists and for anyone interested in the natural history of the Georgia coast.

Download or read book Missing Saints written by Karen Mercado and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2019-05-05 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the Rapture occurs, the entire world will be in a state of panic. The ones left who will have the answers to what is really happening, according to the Bible, will be the ones preoccupied with their own challenges and not so eager to explain what they know out of fear of being captured, persecuted, or executed for their faith in God. Christians will turn into a self–sufficient society because of an inability to buy, sell, or trade, which will result from them refusing the 666 Mark of the Beast. The government will become so big that most people will depend on it and will blame the chaos on the disappearances of Christians. That will fuel the hatred of the ungodly toward the Christians. This book provides hope, according to the teachings of Jesus, to the people who remain after the Rapture. Even when God turns His back on this world, it will not be too late to come to Him, although time will be running out. Some people will successfully find ways to survive in the last days. It will be quite a survival game. Those who have it figured out will use Revelation as a guide to prepare themselves physically, mentally, and spiritually. I hope to paint a picture of what the world might look like in a fictional sense so that people can have hope for their future, know what to expect, and know that God still loves every one of us. He wants no man to perish. He came so that we may have life abundantly. What will that mean for the ones left behind?

Download or read book Panther Tract written by Melody Golding and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2011-04-11 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hunting wild boar is a keenly held tradition in the Mississippi Delta. Fraught with danger, it challenges the hunter, observer, wildlife enthusiast, and landowner alike. Panther Tract is an insider's observance of extraordinary hunting, southern hospitality, camaraderie, and the love of dogs, horses, and hair-raising excitement. The over 160 photographs are representative of a “day at the hunt,” starting at dawn and ending well after dark. The tales center on vivid hunting experiences, both at Panther Tract, a large wilderness paradise in Yazoo County, owned by legendary southern gentleman Howard Brent, and in other locations in the Mississippi Delta. The narratives come from men, women, doctors, lawyers, judges, businessmen, politicians, farmers, sharecroppers' sons, and even a Hollywood screenwriter. Melody Golding's photographs focus on the Delta landscape and on the people and animals involved in the hunt. Portraits of the hunters, and their interactions with one another and their dogs and horses, fascinate. An award-winning photographer and an expert horsewoman, Golding brings a knowledgeable and critical eye to these images. The stories she collects range from traditional often humorous hunting tales to more serious accounts of the history of hog hunting in America. Hank Burdine, a Mississippi native and hunter who has written for many statewide publications, lends a broad vision to the history, statistics, and lore of hunting wild hogs. An appendix features hunt recipes by Chef John Folse and philosophy on the stewardship of harvesting the hog. A colorful and diverse assemblage of beautiful photographs and tales, this book reveals a treasured regional tradition.

He pisses off ex-mobster Marty Gauer and collides inextricably with Black Nick Vasiloff, who has never lost a bar fight and has been in far too many. Matt falls in love with Nicks niece, the Russian-Aleut beauty Anna, but Anna may not be as smitten with Matt as he is with her. She seems in no hurry to leave Arnie, her highline fisherman boyfriend with his big paydays and his Silver Star from Vietnam.

Book excerpt: Trish Shallowman feels like her life has been put on pause. She has an ex-husband who doesn't understand the meaning of the word ex, a career that tanked before she ever worked her first day and a car that breaks down on alternating Wednesdays. When Trish's mother asks her to temporarily move to Possum Creek so she can take care of her ailing grandfather, Trish figures that a change of scenery can't make her situation in life any worse. She wasn't expecting to spend most of her days trying to prevent her grandfather from shooting at the mailman or that her impossibly gorgeous neighbor would decide he wanted to be her first ever one-night-stand. She definitely wasn't expecting that two months in Possum Creek would make her question whether the future she's spent so much time waiting for is really the future she wants.

I’m going to be very busy reading the next 98 weeks." -- B. DeAug ★★★★★ "This book continues with action, fast paced, twists and turns in the second book in the Invasion Universe. I love that the best laid plans always get screwed up. Again this plot has aliens, military, and everything else. I recommend this book." -- Shirley ★★★★★ "I greatly enjoyed this book right from page one and had a hard time putting it down- even to work! The pace was just fast enough to make book a quick read but not so fast that I felt rushed. It was great to see some humor and twists crop up that l expect to see from the authors of 'Unicorn Western’." -- SrikerX7 ★★★★★ "It's as exciting as the first. A real "page-clicker". Fast-paced and full of action, twists, and turns, it's sometimes even shocking. Several times I asked myself "did they really just go there?!" -- DBStevens ★★★★★ "I just finished this one and I already can't wait to get the next one! I just had a library book get yanked back unfinished because I couldn't bear to switch over from this one to that one! The story is related to the Invasion series, but this is a completely different story and perspective. The characters are witty and sarcastic and oftentimes hilarious. Its a fast paced and twisty ride that I definitely recommend." -- SLE Save the Girl is the second book in the complete Save The Humans trilogy.
