Of Human Bondage

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Maugham, W. Somerset, PUBLISHER: Ezreads Publications, LLC, The book begins with the death of the mother of the nine-year-old protagonist, Philip Carey. Philip's father had already died a few months before, and the orphan Philip is sent to live with his aunt and uncle. His uncle is vicar of Blackstable, a small village in East Anglia. Philip inherits a small fortune but the money is held in custody by his uncle until he is twenty-one, giving his uncle a great deal of power over him until he reaches his maturity.

Life Alignment: Walking in Step with God

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: James, William N., PUBLISHER: Wasteland Press, Life on earth exists by the laws of nature. A few minutes under water can mean death to humans. A fish on land cannot survive for long. The law of gravity has taken the lives of many. The lack of common sense has meant the demise of some. Just as the tires of a car wear out too soon when the wheels are out of alignment, even so a life lived out of alignment with God's principles will face early burnout. We are created in the image of God. We must know what these principles are and not ignore them. Authentic Christianity is to know, understand and practice the principles that God has given to us in His Word; the Bible. This book is a careful look at nine of these principles Psalm "BLESSED IS EVERY ONE WHO FEARS THE LORD, WHO WALKS IN HIS WAYS."

The Los Angeles Watts Towers

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Goldstone, Bud / Goldstone, Arloa Paquin / Goldstone, Arloa P., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, The Watts Towers, located in south-central Los Angeles, are the monumental work of one man: Simon Rodia. Born in Ribottoli, Italy c. , Rodia immigrated to the U.S. when he was about fifteen. In , he purchased a triangular-shaped lot at the end of a dead-end L.A. street and over the next thirty years he worked single-handedly--without machine equipment, scaffolding, bolts, rivets, welds, or drawing-board designs--to build the nine sculptures that constitute the Watts Towers. This book recounts the story of Rodia and his creation, as well as the considerable history of the Watts area itself. Other chapters discuss Rodia's building techniques and materials, as well as the conservation efforts underway at the site. Visitors to the Towers and the armchair traveler alike will enjoy this in-depth look at Rodia and his singular creation.

Apache: The Long Ride Home

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gall, Grant, PUBLISHER: Sunstone Press, "An Apache warrior bent down from his horse, its glossy black flanks still heaving from exertion, to pick me up. As his hand grabbed my arm I bit hard into the flesh of his forearm. It was a deep bite and he shouted with pain. The other Apaches laughed loudly at his discomfort. He reached down again. I tried the same tactic but this time he was too quick. He jerked me upwards onto his horse and sat me in front of him. I fought like a cornered bobcat, spitting, biting and clawing. He struck me on the back of the neck. A vivid flash, then darkness". Thus begins the saga of Pedro Bautista captured by the Apache Indians when he was nine years old after a raid on his Mexican village. Adopted into the tribe, he absorbed their culture and survived their eventual confrontation and defeat by American troops.

The Dovekeepers

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hoffman, Alice, PUBLISHER: Scribner Book Company, "The Dovekeepers" is Alice Hoffman's most ambitious and mesmerizing novel: "striking....Hoffman grounds her expansive, intricately woven, and deepest new novel in biblical history, with a devotion and seriousness of purpose" ("Entertainment Weekly").Nearly years ago, nine hundred Jews held out for months against armies of Romans on Masada, a mountain in the Judean desert. According to the ancient historian Josephus, two women and five children survived. Based on this tragic and iconic event, Hoffman's novel is a spellbinding tale of four extraordinarily bold, resourceful, and sensuous women, each of whom has come to Masada by a different path. The lives of these four complex and fiercely independent women intersect in the desperate days of the siege. All are dovekeepers, and all are also keeping secrets--about who they are, where they come from, who fathered them, and whom they love. "The Dovekeepers "is Alice Hoffman's masterpiece. Acquista Ora

Right to Arm Bears

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dickson, Gordon R., PUBLISHER: Baen Books, HUMANS OR HEMNOIDS: AN UNBEARABLE CHOICE Planet Dilbia is in a crucial location for both humans and their adversaries, the Hemnoids. Therefore making friends with the Dilbians and establishing a human presence there is of the utmost importance, which may be a problem, since the bearlike Dilbians stand some nine feet tall, and have a high regard for physical prowess. They're not impressed by human technology, either. A real man, er, bear doesn't need machines to do his work for him. But Dilbians "are" impressed by sharp thinking, and some have expressed a grudging admiration for the logical (and usually sneaky) mental maneuvers that the human "shorties" have used to get themselves out of desperate jams. Just maybe that old human craftiness will win over the Dilbians to the human side. If not, we lose a nexus, and the Dilbians will learn just how unbearable Hemnoids can be....

The Last Cannibals: A South American Oral History

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Basso, Ellen B., PUBLISHER: University of Texas Press, The Kalapalo are a Carib-speaking group of Brazilian Indians who live in the Alto (Upper) Xingu region around the headwaters of the Xingu River, a tributary of the Amazon. In this major discourse-centered study of their culture, Ellen Basso transcribes and analyzes nine traditional Kalapalo stories to offer important insights into Kalapalo historical knowledge and the performance of historical narratives within their nonliterate society. The stories focus on the biographies of exceptionally powerful warrior bowmen. Basso uses these stories to explore how the Kalapalo remember and understand their history and what specific linguistic, psychological, and ideological materials they employ to construct their narratives. This inquiry represents the first comprehensive study of Amazonian Indian ethnohistory using indigenous oral documents and the first attempt to understand, though indigenous discourse, the emergence of Upper Xingu society. It will be important reading in anthropology, linguistics, and South American studies.

The only survivor and witness to the murders is Anna, a nine year old child who is traumatized beyond belief by the bloodshed that she witnessed the night her family was slain in front of her. Hank Jordan, the lead detective in the case, follows clues left mistakenly by the killers and is led to an unimaginable network of international crime and destruction that has for years thrived and lived undetected or ignored in his small town.

A Crime in the Neighborhood

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Berne, Suzanne, PUBLISHER: Owl Publishing Company, An auspicious debut novel by a young writer who will remind readers of Anne Lamott and Anne Tyler Crime in the Neighborhood centers on a headline event-- the molestation and murder of a twelve-year-old boy in a Washington, D.C., suburb. At the time of the murder, , Marsha was nine years old and as an adult she still remembers that summer as a time when murder and her own family's upheaval were intertwined. Everyone, it seemed to Marsha at the time, was committing crimes. Her father deserted his family to take up with her mother's younger sister. Her teenage brother and sister were smoking and shoplifting, and her mother was "flirting" with Mr. Green, the new next-door neighbor. Even the president of the United States seemed to be a crook. But it is Marsha's own suspicions about who committed this crime that has the town up in arms and reveals what happens when fear runs wild.

The Edge of Marriage: Stories

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Kaplan, Hester, PUBLISHER: University of Georgia Press, In nine stories of tension-filled choices, difficult awakenings, and ironic twists, characters in The Edge of Marriage ride the wavering line between commitments and promises. Full of conflict, betrayal, illness, manipulation, and indecision, these stories portray men and women on the brink of defeat and drastic change. In "Claude Comes and Goes" a husband confesses his sympathy and affection for his wife's dying former lover. "The Spiral" captures the crippling effects of miscommunication and unresolved grief. In "Dyaesthesia" a wife and mother grapples with her feelings about her marriage and her husband after he is maimed in an accident. Characters trapped in troubled relationships and on the edge of society walk along Hester Kaplan's "edge": an out-of-wedlock child, a grown victim of child abuse, the male lover of a married man with AIDS. The title stoW confronts the complexity of friendship, love, and marriage, as a husband faces his wife's emotional breakdown and his own surfacing resentments. This sometimes startling, frequently poignant collection is illuminated by keen insight and tempered with somber hope.

Sea Sick: The Global Ocean in Crisis

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Mitchell, Alanna, PUBLISHER: Emblem Editions, All life -- whether on land or in the sea -- depends on the oceans for two things: - Oxygen. Most of Earth's oxygen is produced by phytoplankton in the sea. These humble, one-celled organisms, rather than the spectacular rain forests, are the true lungs of the planet. - Climate control. Our climate is regulated by the ocean's currents, winds, and water-cycle activity. Sea Sick is the first book to examine the current state of the world's oceans -- the great unexamined ecological crisis of the planet -- and the fact that we are altering everything about them; temperature, salinity, acidity, ice cover, volume, circulation, and, of course, the life within them. Alanna Mitchell joins the crews of leading scientists in nine of the global ocean's hotspots to see firsthand what is really happening around the world. Whether it's the impact of coral reef bleaching, the puzzle of the oxygen-less dead zones such as the one in the Gulf of Mexico, or the shocking implications of the changing Ph balance of the sea, Mitchell explains the science behind the story to create an engaging, accessible yet authoritative account. "From the Hardcover edition."
