Download or read book Drive Me Out of My Mind written by Chad Faries and published by Emergency Press. This book was released on 2013-10-18 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drive Me Out of My Mind is a coming-of-age story of wildness and wandering set primarily in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan—its abandoned iron mines, desperate small towns, and heart-breaking bars. It’s the memoir of a boy raised by lawless and itinerant women and how he was cultured—and corrupted—by their hard-living, hard-drinking, and hard-loving ways. Given this lot in life, Faries tells how one boy was hurt into becoming a poet at the ripe age of two—to imagine another world other than the daily madness in front of him—a world where violent stalkers hovered over the hospital beds of women as they gave birth, where father figures also copulated with Gramma, where a worn Barbie doll was a main source of comfort, and where home meant 24 anonymous hovels in 10 years.

Book excerpt: Fraternal twins Nels and Suvi move beyond their royal heritage and into military and magical dominion in this flintlock epic fantasy debut from a two-time Campbell Award finalist. Prince Nels is the scholarly runt of the ancient Kainen royal family of Eledore, disregarded as flawed by the king and many others. Only Suvi, his fraternal twin sister, supports him. When Nels is ambushed by an Acrasian scouting party, he does the forbidden for a member of the ruling family: He picks up a fallen sword and defends himself. Disowned and dismissed to the military, Nels establishes himself as a leader as Eledore begins to shatter under the attack of the Acrasians, who the Kainen had previously dismissed as barbarians. But Nels knows differently, and with the aid of Suvi, who has allied with pirates, he mounts a military offensive with sword, canon, and what little magic is left in the world.
Download or read book The Iron Path written by Conor O'Flynn and published by . This book was released on 2019-08-02 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you lift the barbell, you set foot on the Iron Path. Setting foot on the Iron Path means opening yourself up. It means knowing what the barbell is and what the barbell can do for you. It means knowing who and what you are, and knowing what you'd like to become.The Iron Path is the path we all walk as we use the crucible of iron to build the body, mind, and life we've envisioned for ourselves. We know this path requires our focus, dedication and effort. We know that moving along this path requires encountering resistance, and pushing back. What we may not know when we first set out is just how much of this journey takes place in the mind. We lift our physical weights, using our physical body, in the physical world. The reasons we lift, our passions, motivations, faults, desires, strengths and weaknesses all come from the mind. The way we think about our training is just as important as the training itself...you can't have one without the other.Many trainees train hard for years without seeing the results they so desperately want to see. They know there's a problem with their process, but they don't know how to fix it. They don't even know where to look to find the problem. The Iron Path is a book of barbell philosophy. It's a guide to the Iron Path itself. The lessons, thoughts and exercises in the book come from years in the trenches, under the bar. These lessons have been earned the hard way, through countless hours of hard labour and an equal number of hours devoted to reflection and contemplation. Without considering the lessons in the book, it's possible to spend a lifetime spinning your wheels and getting nowhere. The book lays out a series of lessons, each describing a specific obstacle along the Iron Path. Each lesson will ask you to think about your training, your vision, and yourself. Through the lessons and the exercises, you can refine your mindset. You can learn to put in the work necessary to get where you need to go. The body may lift the bar, but the mind lifts the body. Get your head in the game. Walk the Iron Path.

Book excerpt: 1675 -- Plymouth Colony -- Verity Parker promised to look after her family. Raised among the bookshops and turmoil of Reformation London, Verity now finds herself in Puritan New England, where she must learn to keep her head down and her mouth shut, or risk dire consequences. The only person who values her tenacity is Kit, the heretical ironworker she has been forbidden to see. When King Philip's War breaks out, Verity must stay silent as the Puritan elders spread hateful rhetoric about the "savages" in the forest. When she witnesses a young girl die in childbirth, Verity must stand by as neighbors blame God's vengeance. But when tragedy strikes her own home, Verity must choose between her duty to her family and her love for Kit. Will she choose to keep the peace, or will she defy the leaders of the colony for a chance at happiness? Set against the backdrop of King Philip's War, the bloodiest war per capita in American history, Iron & Fire explores the experience of a clever, educated woman at a time when being so often resulted in death. Perfect for fans of Amy Belding Brown's Flight of the Sparrow, or Elizabeth George Speare's The Witch of Blackbird Pond, Iron & Fire was written for those who read the original American Girl series as children and are now all grown up.

Book excerpt: The classic account of an unforgettable endurance test, now updated with a new introduction The 1989 Ironman World Championship was the greatest race ever in endurance sports. In a spectacular duel that became known as the Iron War, the world's two strongest athletes raced side by side at world-record pace for a grueling 139 miles. Driven by one of the fiercest rivalries in triathlon, Dave Scott and Mark Allen raced shoulder to shoulder through Ironman's 2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike race, and 26.2-mile marathon. After 8 punishing hours, both men would demolish the previous record--and cross the finish line a mere 58 seconds apart. In Iron War, sports journalist Matt Fitzgerald writes a riveting epic about how Allen and Scott drove themselves and each other through the most awe-inspiring race in sports history. Iron War goes beyond the pulse-pounding race story to offer a fascinating exploration of the lives of the world's two toughest men and their unquenchable desire to succeed. Weaving an examination of mental resolve into a gripping tale of athletic adventure, Iron War is a soaring narrative of two champions and the paths that led to their stunning final showdown.
