  Famous Men of Greece

  John Henry Haaren, A. B. Poland

  • 0

  • 0

  Greeks were history’s great men of thought. John Haaren has collected stories from the lives of thirty famous Greek men, detailing the rise, Golden Age, and fall of Greece. Among these men are Aristotle, Ptolemy, Ulysses, Pericles, and Alexander the Great. Children will be delighted to read and understand why the scope of Greek accomplishment is still known today as the “Greek Miracle.” 
  This book provides a great introduction to ancient Greece, not only for children, but for adults who missed out on a classical education. The title (originally given when the book was first published in 1904) is a little misleading, as the book introduces gods and goddesses, as well as talking about the famous heroes and leaders of the former nation. However, the book is a very good resource to help both adults and children understand references in literature and elsewhere to these individuals who have had influence on our own stories and government.

  Short story written by Jack London The Son of the Wolf consists of a single man who is known as Mckenzie or "Scruff". The story tells of the hardships of what single men had to endure on the frontier. Often men would venture on journeys that may consist of months or even years just in order to find the right suitor. Scruff had been the toughest of the tough and had lasted the longest on the frontier without the company of a woman. 
  This story connects with naturalism by showing that nature can be just as cruel as it can be forgiving if someone is alone on the frontier.

  A powerful story of struggle, survival, and hope for the future is told by one of Denmark's most successful artists. The violent, compelling debut, co-written with journalist Dart Adams, provides a complex portrait of one man and the various ways in which every social system that was supposed to help him failed him, while also delving into the psychology of immigrant gangs and the young men who fall into them. But ultimately, it's a narrative about tenacity, survival, and optimism for the future. Sleiman was born in Lebanon during the 1982 bombardment and is a Palestinian. His family eventually moved to Denmark, but their new life there was far from perfect. Sleiman was subjected to domestic violence as well as social rejection as a Muslim immigrant. Angry and powerless, he found himself drawn to gang life.Sleiman had dropped out of school and was one of his gang's most feared and revered members as a teenager. He was involved in hundreds of crimes during his peak, but after surviving an attempted assassination, he addressed his demons and permanently abandoned the gang life. Sleiman is now narrating his story in his own words in the hopes of discouraging others from following in his footsteps.

  For the Grace of Joe

  Vickie Morgan and her partner Josh had a wonderful relationship and were simply enjoying life with their son when they found out they were expecting again. Things were near about perfect and with an impending visitor coming in from North Carolina, Vickie scheduled her 20-week ultrasound a little early so they could have some privacy from her mother-in-law. 
  The scan showed a list of abnormalities and doctors at Maternal Fetal Medicine in Portland, Maine swarmed the room suggesting medical termination. Vickie asked the gender of the baby so she could at least pick a name for the baby they wanted her to say goodbye to. 
  The gender could not be determined so early and the couple assumed they were having a girl and picked the name Grace. Vickie had often seen families with children who had special needs and said “there but for the Grace of God go I” and apparently hers had run out. 
  After a non-invasive prenatal testing called the MaterniT21, Josh and Vickie found out they were in fact having a boy who had Trisomy 13 which shows up approximately 1 in 10,000 babies. 
  The strain on their marriage and their relationships with family and friends reached a breaking point over and over again. Navigating medical opinions and the stigma around children and people with special needs was at times, too much to comprehend. 
  This story cowritten by Vickie and Josh Morgan is one of hope and healing, pain and recovery. It explores the fractured relationships and brutal reality that expectant parents face when making life altering decisions that are often misunderstood and sometimes not supported by loved ones. 
  It’s a prenatal guide that goes so far beyond ‘What to Expect When You’re Expecting.” It’s one brave couple’s account of how they handled challenges they never could have imagined.
