Download or read book Wilson the Wizard written by Mark J and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-02-13 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book Wilson the Wizard, as the title suggests, is about a wizard named Wilson and his familiar demon helper, a demon dog named Jacob. It contains heaps of action and humor and very much takes the mickey out of (makes fun of) sacred cows. Nothing is sacred. The book has an annoying character who pops up, often right in the middle of action, called the Elf Editor, who defines words and sometimes refuses to if they are rude. It also has a very peculiar immortal spirit in a light bulb called Albert who is partial to 1970s hard rock music. Wilson and Jacob are very tough and are both augmented physically in addition to having magical powers, so they are not to be taken lightly by any enemies, which they have many of.

Download or read book Wilson written by A. Scott Berg and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-09-10 with total page 678 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the #1 New York Times bestselling author, "a brilliant biography"* of the 28th president of the United States. *Doris Kearns Goodwin One hundred years after his inauguration, Woodrow Wilson still stands as one of the most influential figures of the twentieth century, and one of the most enigmatic. And now, after more than a decade of research and writing, Pulitzer Prize–winning author A. Scott Berg has completed Wilson—the most personal and penetrating biography ever written about the twenty-eighth President. In addition to the hundreds of thousands of documents in the Wilson Archives, Berg was the first biographer to gain access to two recently discovered caches of papers belonging to those close to Wilson. From this material, Berg was able to add countless details—even several unknown events—that fill in missing pieces of Wilson’s character, and cast new light on his entire life. From the visionary Princeton professor who constructed a model for higher education in America to the architect of the ill-fated League of Nations, from the devout Commander in Chief who ushered the country through its first great World War to the widower of intense passion and turbulence who wooed a second wife with hundreds of astonishing love letters, from the idealist determined to make the world “safe for democracy” to the stroke-crippled leader whose incapacity—and the subterfuges around it—were among the century’s greatest secrets, from the trailblazer whose ideas paved the way for the New Deal and the Progressive administrations that followed to the politician whose partisan battles with his opponents left him a broken man, and ultimately, a tragic figure—this is a book at once magisterial and deeply emotional about the whole of Wilson’s life, accomplishments, and failings. This is not just Wilson the icon—but Wilson the man. INCLUDES PHOTOGRAPHS
Download or read book The Wizard s Son written by Violet Wilson and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-04-29 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fourteen-year-old Jake is used to being on his own. He hasn't heard from his father since he was seven, and he doesn't really remember him. His mother has two jobs and night classes, so he is usually alone at home. The independence is nice, but he gets scared in the empty apartment, especially at night. Jake often goes alone to see his eleven-year-old sister, Sarah, who has early-onset schizophrenia and lives in a residence for severely disturbed children. He knows that his mother doesn't have much time, but it bothers him as she comes with him less often. He still holds out hope that a drug will come along to make Sarah okay. Besides Sarah, his closest friend is JT, a retired music teacher for whom he does errands and a few odd jobs. When she ends up with a half-wild, half-grown cat, Jake is immediately drawn to it. He is the first person to be able to pet the cat, who can't stay with JT and has nowhere else to go. Afraid his mother won't let him take the cat, he decides not to tell her, and smuggles Star into his room while she's at work. At JT's prodding, he starts writing down one of the stories he's thought up, a fairy tale about a teenage boy who must free his young childhood friend, now a queen, from a wizard's curse. Scenes and characters are inspired by events and people from Jake's own life. When Sarah gets worse and has to be hospitalized, Jake worries that she will never get better. Then he starts to fear that he is going insane, too.
Download or read book Sporting Supermen written by Brendan Gallagher and published by White Lion Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Brendan Gallagher wrote a feature on theTelegraph's sports pages about his favorite sporting comic heroes, the response from readers was unprecedented: hundreds of e-mails from nostalgic readers. Now he has turned his research and enthusiasm into a unique celebration of these prodigious characters. He devotes separate chapters to the three greatest heroes: Wilson of the Wizard; Alf Tupper, the "Tough of the Track;" and Roy of the Rovers. Then he covers the best of the rest, includingnbsp;men like Skid Solo, Johnny Cougar, and Raven on the Wing. He also tells the story of the remarkable Gilbert Dalton, author of the Wilson stories, a writing machine who wrote millions of words in his lifetime and whose productivity put Dickens to shame, and has talked to the BBC's Stewart Storey for a modern (and entirely serious) analysis of some of Wilson's most amazing feats (like a three-minute mile). Here, then, are such truly extraordinary feats as bowling out Australia twice in a day with 120mph deliveries in a 1953 Ashes Test, a professional soccer player still playing in the top flight at the age of around 75, not to mention running 20 miles cross-country innbsp;two hours to warn the Duke of Wellington of Napoleon's advance.

Book excerpt: The Tomb kicks off the Repairman Jack series that Stephen King calls "one of the best all-out adventure stories I've read in years." Much to the chagrin of his girlfriend, Gia, Repairman Jack doesn't deal with appliances. He fixes situations—situations that too often land him in deadly danger. His latest fix is finding a stolen necklace which, unknown to him, is more than a simple piece of jewelry. Some might say it's cursed, others might call it blessed. The quest leads Jack to a rusty freighter on Manhattan's West Side docks. What he finds in its hold threatens his sanity and the city around him. But worst of all, it threatens Gia's daughter Vicky, the last surviving member of a bloodline marked for extinction. "One of the all-time great characters in one of the all-time great series." --Lee Child At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Download or read book Wilson s Creek written by William Garrett Piston and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2002-05-01 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 1861, Americans were preoccupied by the question of which states would join the secession movement and which would remain loyal to the Union. This question was most fractious in the border states of Maryland, Kentucky, and Missouri. In Missouri, it was largely settled at Wilson's Creek on August 10, 1861, in a contest that is rightly considered the second major battle of the Civil War. In providing the first in-depth narrative and analysis of this important but largely overlooked battle, William Piston and Richard Hatcher combine a traditional military study of the fighting at Wilson's Creek with an innovative social analysis of the soldiers who participated and the communities that supported them. In particular, they highlight the importance of the soldiers' sense of corporate honor--the desire to uphold the reputation of their hometowns--as a powerful motivator for enlistment, a source of sustenance during the campaign, and a lens through which soldiers evaluated their performance in battle.
