Download or read book Legends of the Wild West written by Robert Edelstein and published by Centennial Books. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For several hundred years, the West had been the land of dreams, an extraordinary region of hope, expansion and opportunity where European countries—and then the young USA itself—sent their finest explorers to plant seeds in a seemingly untapped, open landscape. This spirit captured the popular imagination in the Wild West, those raucous 30 years between the end of the Civil War and the beginning of a new century. Within these pages, readers will explore true tales of rebels and heroes such as General George Custer, Buffalo Bill, Billy the Kid, Jesse James, Annie Oakley, and Sitting Bull, among others. The Wild West was the American Dream on steroids. It was an age of gunfights and gold rushes, cowboys and Comanches, with the likes of Buffalo Bill, Jesse James and Billy the Kid making their names. It forged extraordinary legends and even bigger lies, with everything fueled by dime novels written back East that encouraged folks to grab their share of a promise that was difficult for this hard land to keep. This book looks at all these mythical characters, the start of the railroad across the nation, the cost it all dealt to the Native Americans whose land was lost, and the way Hollywood still keeps the dream alive. As historian Richard White says, “People could go west and no matter their failures elsewhere, they had an opportunity to remake themselves. It’s a symbol for a kind of individualism that actually doesn’t exist in the West, but mythically it does.”

Download or read book Women Weed written by Elana Frankel and published by Centennial Books. This book was released on 2020-03-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's easy to feel overwhelmed by the newfound power of buying and using pot. So, first things first - here's a basic look at the plant. What is it? Where has it been? And how do you use it? Even if you consider yourself a pro, a little refresher could not hurt. As cannabis moves towards legalization and declining social stigma, the green rush has ignited an entrepreneurial spark and that means blazing new trails, and inspiring others. Entrepreneurs are known for heading out into uncharted territory with superhuman dedication. Add to that the grey area of working in the cannabis industry and you’ve got possibilities…challenging but feasible. One thing is for certain, women are flocking to the industry and don’t mind working in high-risk, unchartered territory. Women are starting businesses, growing and extracting, working in real estate and the medical community. Today, at least 25% of executive-level roles in the industry are held by women and that is a slight edge over U.S. businesses as a whole (23%). However, when it comes to cannabis, it’s rarely obvious what to do next in the ever-changing political, social and medical scene, and, traditionally a woman would have relied on herself when challenges arise. In this premium book, the power of personal narratives brings a better understanding to these complex issues. When asked to share their own stories within the context of the industry, the women on these pages made connections between their own biographies and the industry, and happily pass on that knowledge. Maybe the reader will see herself in these pages or perhaps she is still learning and unlearning. (Don’t worry, we’ve got a primer for you!) Either way, readers will soon realize that they are not alone and there are resources to get more involved.

Download or read book Trivium 21c written by Martin Robinson and published by Crown House Publishing. This book was released on 2013-06-12 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Ancient Greece to the present day, Trivium 21c explores whether a contemporary trivium (Grammar, Dialectic, and Rhetoric) can unite progressive and traditionalist institutions, teachers, politicians and parents in the common pursuit of providing a great education for our children in the 21st century. Education policy and practice is a battleground. Traditionalists argue for the teaching of a privileged type of hard knowledge and deride soft skills. Progressives deride learning about great works of the past preferring '21c skills' (21st century skills) such as creativity and critical thinking. Whilst looking for a school for his daughter, the author became frustrated by schools' inability to value knowledge, as well as creativity, foster discipline alongside free-thinking, and value citizenship alongside independent learning. Drawing from his work as a creative teacher, Robinson finds inspiration in the Arts and the need to nurture learners with the ability to deal with the uncertainties of our age. Named one of Book Authority's best education books of all time.

Download or read book Haunted West written by Michael Fleeman and published by Centennial Books. This book was released on 2021-08-03 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The images are ingrained into the American psyche: cowboys and Indians, gunslingers and stagecoach robbers, lassos and saddles, six guns and nooses. It’s a time when freedom seemed as vast as the prairie -- and violence and death loomed behind every ridge. In Haunted West, we look at the ghosts and legends of an older time that are still with us today. Readers are fascinated by the Wild West and we take them on a journey that spans the past to the present looking at the spirits whose legends are still with us today. As the wind howls through ghost towns, haunted voices spook the saloons of Bodie and Deadwood, and spooky occurrences rattle the mine shafts of Virginia City and Silverton, you can still hear them, their rattle of spurs, the clink of their whiskey glasses, the crack of their Winchesters. Visit an era bathed in myth, dusted in desert sand, and whose tall tales may not be as wild as you think as we document a time where legends never die.
