Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Honorable Ira V. Davis and the Honorable Mrs Minnie M. Davis gave birth to 10 kids during their short life on earth. Their signature & greatest achievement was giving life to their children. Therefore, their legacy can be found by looking at the eyes & souls of Joyce Davis, Willie Davis, Bobby Davis, Albert Davis, Luther Davis, Dollina (Willie Evelyn) Davis, Lucy Davis, Kenneth Davis, Ira Davis, and Felix Davis. Furthermore, they closely cared for & loved their children....and provided great guidance & counsel along the way. They deserve at least a million pages highlighting everything they did for their family, community, friends, & others. However, this King & Queen were very humbled & spiritual people....and would not take very kindly to me bragging, publicly or privately, about them. However, today, I'm going to be hardheaded and shout to the world: 'Hello world! Hello world! The Honorable Mr. Ira V. Davis & The Honorable Mrs. Minnie M. Davis, from Sontag & Oma, Mississippi, are the greatest parents on earth....still....enough said'! We will see each other in due time....thank you!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An epic tale of revenge and survival, Only Killers and Thieves is a gripping and utterly transporting debut, bringing to life a colonial Australia that bears a striking resemblance to the American Wild West in its early years. It is 1885, and a crippling drought threatens to ruin the McBride family. Their land is parched; their cattle are starving. When the rain miraculously comes, it renews their hope for survival. But, returning home one afternoon after swimming in a remote water hole that had been replenished by the downpour, fourteen-year-old Tommy and sixteen-year-old Billy encounter a shocking tragedy. Thirsty for vengeance against the man who they believe has wronged them—their former Aboriginal stockman—the distraught brothers turn to the ruthless, cunning John Sullivan, their father’s former employer and the wealthiest landowner in the region. Sullivan gathers a posse, under the leadership of the dangerous, fascinating Inspector Edmund Noone, comprising members of the Queensland Native Police, an infamous arm of British colonial power charged with the “dispersal” of indigenous Australians to “protect” the rights of white settlers. As they journey across the barren outback in pursuit, their harsh and horrifying experiences will have a devastating impact on Tommy, one that will torment him for the rest of his life—and will hold enduring consequences for a young country struggling to come into its own. Re-creating a period of Australian and British history evocative of the violence of the American frontier era, Only Killers and Thieves is an unforgettable story of family, guilt, empire, race, manhood, and faith.

Book excerpt: The Works of Jack London: Novels, Short Stories, Poems, Plays, Memoirs & Essays is a comprehensive collection that showcases the diverse talents of the iconic American author. Jack London's works, known for their naturalistic themes and vivid storytelling, capture the essence of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This collection includes his well-known novels like 'The Call of the Wild' and 'White Fang', as well as his lesser-known essays and plays, providing readers with a complete picture of London's literary genius. London's writing style is engaging and thought-provoking, offering insights into the human condition and the wild beauty of nature. His works stand the test of time and continue to inspire readers around the world. Jack London, a prolific writer and adventurer, drew inspiration from his own experiences as a seaman, laborer, and gold prospector. His socialist beliefs and love for the wilderness shaped his writing, leading to the creation of some of the most enduring works in American literature. London's passion for social justice and exploration infuses his writing with a sense of urgency and authenticity. I highly recommend The Works of Jack London to any reader interested in literature that explores the depths of human nature and the untamed beauty of the natural world. London's timeless works continue to resonate with readers of all ages, making this collection a must-read for anyone looking to delve into the mind of one of America's greatest storytellers.

Book excerpt: "They were waiting inside for him-- five desperate men. When he entered, they were going to jump him! Hinges -- the man outside -- knew. He did not draw back. He was not afraid; for in spite of the fact that he was a brute and a bully, he was not a coward ... At twenty-one, his body had been almost perfect-- a legacy which he had squandered through drink and riotous living. Now, for the first time, did he know what it was to regret the past. He had need of his strength to-night. The girl he loved was a prisoner inside. Single-handed, he had come to take her away. To win, he had to strike first. A whisper, strangely like a prayer, escaped his lips, and then, with an angry roar, he hurled himself though the swinging doors." --

Download or read book Kristin Lavransdatter II The Wife written by Sigrid Undset and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1999-11-01 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “[Sigrid Undset] should be the next Elena Ferrante.” —Slate A Penguin Classic Kristin Lavransdatter interweaves political, social, and religious history with the daily aspects of family life to create a colorful, richly detailed tapestry of Norway during the fourteenth-century. The trilogy, however, is more than a journey into the past. Undset's own life—her familiarity with Norse sagas and folklore and with a wide range of medieval literature, her experiences as a daughter, wife, and mother, and her deep religious faith—profoundly influenced her writing. Her grasp of the connections between past and present and of human nature itself, combined with the extraordinary quality of her writing, sets her works far above the genre of "historical novels." This new translation by Tina Nunnally—the first English version since Charles Archer's translation in the 1920s—captures Undset's strengths as a stylist. Nunnally, an award-winning translator, retains the natural dialog and lyrical flow of the original Norwegian, with its echoes of Old Norse legends, while deftly avoiding the stilted language and false archaisms of Archer's translation. In addition, she restores key passages left out of that edition. Undset's ability to present a meticulously accurate historical portrait without sacrificing the poetry and narrative drive of masterful storytelling was particularly significant in her homeland. Granted independence in 1905 after five hundred years of foreign domination, Norway was eager to reclaim its national history and culture. Kristin Lavransdatter became a touchstone for Undset's contemporaries, and continues to be widely read by Norwegians today. In the more than 75 years since it was first published, it has also become a favorite throughout the world. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.
