Download or read book Tales from the Tiger s Den written by Stuart Lloyd and published by . This book was released on 2022-01-28 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stuart Lloyd's most important and entertaining undertaking yet -- to capture the colourful lives of 21 expats and foreigners who lived at a turbulent and transformational time of that country's history. A 100-year period full of seismic shifts as Asia went from colonial to post-colonial to being the epicentre of the 21st Century.You'll meet: A White Russian in swinging Shanghai in the 1920s, whose father supplied trucks to Chinese warlords. A Frenchwoman who lived in Indochina (Vietnam) who was evacuated as the French were defeated. A Czechoslovakian pair who were confronted by the Partition riots in India in the 1940s. An American GI landing on Okinawa during the kamikaze bombings and later escaped from Communist China. A German couple who lived it up in Bangkok after the war, and saw the Dutch exported from independent Indonesia. An American who was a truck driver and crocodile hunter in the Philippines. A British tea trading family caught up in a Tamil Tiger attack in Sri Lanka. An East End boy caught up in the horrors of building the Thai Burma Death Railway as a POW. A Christian missionary who witnessed political uprisings in the Philippines plus other adventures in Papua New Guinea, Burma and Vietnam. A British ambassador evacuated from Japan during the War, who had death threats during the Burmese junta. Plus many more.With dozens of amazing, graphic photographs from private albums. The spectrum of Tiger's Den is immense: chronologically, geographically, and experientially. From mercenaries, misfits and missionaries, to penniless panhandlers and ambitious ambassadors.It's like reading The Year of LIving Dangerously, The Quiet American, The Honourable Schoolboy, The Empire of the Sun, The Bridge on the River Kwai, Slumdog Millionaire, and several Somerset Maugham books. The difference is that these are the real people who saw and lived through the real events. They tell it as it was, in their own voice, so you can really feel their story and the amazing times they lived through.

Book Murder in McComb

  • Author : Assistant Professor of American Studies Trent Brown
  • Publisher : LSU Press
  • Release : 2020
  • ISBN : 0807173657
  • Pages : 318 pages

Download or read book Murder in McComb written by Assistant Professor of American Studies Trent Brown and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2020 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "On August 13, 1969, two men picked up Tina Marie Andrews, a twelve-year-old girl, in downtown McComb, Mississippi, a city with a notorious history of racial violence. The men took Andrews and a friend just outside town to an oil field, where they shot her. Andrews' friend escaped and later identified the two killers as McComb police officers. A grand jury indicted both for the murder, but no one was ever convicted of the crime: one officer was acquitted; the other had charges against him dropped. Other than in contemporary local newspaper coverage, the story of Andrews' murder has not been told. Indeed, to this day, many people in the community hesitate to speak of the matter. Trent Brown's 'Murder in McComb' is the first comprehensive examination of the crime, the lengthy investigation into it, and the two extended trials that followed. Brown also explores the public shaming of the state's main witness - a fifteen-year-old unwed mother - and the subsequent desecration of the victim's grave. His study deftly reconstructs various accounts of the murder, explains why the juries reached the verdicts they did, and explores the broader forces that shaped the community in which Tina Andrews lived and died. One of the features that distinguishes Brown's work from other accounts of civil rights era violence is the fact that the murder of Tina Andrews was not a racially motivated killing. Everyone involved in this story was white. However, Tina Andrews and her friend Billie Jo Lambert, the state's main witness, were 'girls of ill repute,' as one of the defense attorneys put it. To some people in McComb, they were trashy children of undistinguished families who got little more than they deserved. In the end, Brown suggests that Tina Andrews had the great misfortune to be murdered in a town where local people were eager to support law and order and stability after the challenges of the civil rights movement"

Yet without a single piece of physical evidence materializing in at least thirty years, it appears the sheriff has his job cut out for him. As Touch begins to unravel the tangled web of details around Barnett’s shooting, he discovers links to a long-running drug ring in Cooper tied to the Dixie Mafia. After he decides to partner with the FBI to bust the drug ring, the choice both helps Touch and places him in extreme danger. Now the sheriff must blend his compassion and affection for his small town with his action hero-like abilities in order to take down Cooper’s biggest drug dealers and hopefully solve the town’s longest running cold case in the process.
