Book excerpt: After Aubrey Harrison wrecks her truck on a dark highway, an unexpected twist of fate catapults her from modern-day Texas to 1836, just weeks before the battle at the Alamo. She wakes up in the life of another woman, one who looks exactly like her. Determined to find a way back, Aubrey avoids the striking young cattleman, Tapley Holland, and the complicated past he’s convinced they share. But she finds herself unwillingly engaged to the town's wealthiest and most powerful bachelor, a man with a cruel vendetta against Tapley. The deeper she falls into the past version of herself, the less she can deny her connection to Texas history and the desire she feels for cattleman. At first, destiny seems to favor the lovers. But as the beautiful countryside prepares for one of the deadliest conflicts in history, Aubrey discovers that love is not bound by time.

This book was released on 2021-05-06 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1845, British Royal Navy officer and Arctic explorer Sir John Franklin (1786–1847) embarked on his third and final expedition into the Canadian Arctic to force the Northwest Passage. After two years with no word, a £20,000 reward was offered to anyone who could find the expedition, leading to many rescue attempts. Two such attempts were undertaken by Elisha Kent Kane (1820–1857), American explorer and United States Navy medical officer. Despite contracting scurvy and suffering greatly during his 1853 attempt, he continued on and went further north than any other explorer had managed. Kane was eventually forced to relinquish the icebound brig “Advance” on May 20, 1855 and spent the next 83 days marching to Upernavik carrying the invalids—losing but one man on the perilous journey. “Adrift in the Arctic Ice Pack” contains Kane's personal account of his courageous but ill-fated rescue mission, detailing the perilous conditions they had to endure and how they were able to survive against all odds in the Arctic wasteland. Highly recommended for those with an interest in Arctic exploration and history in general. Read & Co. History is republishing this classic memoir now in a brand new edition complete with an introductory biography by John Knox Laughton.

W. Bush, Dan and Marilyn Quayle, Henry Kissinger, Nelson Rockefeller, Gerald Ford, and would-be assassins. “A close-in view of how ‘the Great Communicator’ charmed critics and won loyal followers.” —The Christian Science Monitor “A fascinating portrait of Secret Service life.” —Library Journal
