Sinopse

This is a collection of biographies of valiant and daring adventurers, who were among the early settlers of the Wild West. These men were real scouts and trappers, for they lived in the wilds and had to know how to shoot a rifle; how to trap; and how to camp in whatever place night happened to overtake them. Biographies presented in this book are accurate histories of several important frontiersmen and heroes of the border. These stories are all true and are vouched for by early historians. Contents: Daniel Morgan: The Famous Virginian Rifleman, and His Adventures with the Indian Bear James Harrod: Founder of Harrodsburg, Kentucky, and Famous Scout of the Frontier Robert McLellan: Pluckiest of the Early Pioneers Colonel Benjamin Logan: The Intrepid Fighter of the Kentucky Frontier George Rogers Clarke: Famous Leader of the Borderland of Kentucky John Slover: Scout under Crawford and Hero of Extraordinary Adventures Lewis Wetzel: Heroic Virginia Frontiersman and Implacable Enemy of the Redskins Samuel Colter: And His Wonderful Race for Life Meshack Browning: The Celebrated Bear Hunter of the Alleghanies "Bill" Bent: Hero of the Old Santa Fé Trail Thomas Eddie: The Last of the Old School Trappers Jim Bridger: Founder of Bridger, Wyoming, and Famous Indian Fighter "Old Bill" Williams: The Famous Log Rider of Colorado "Big Foot" Wallace: Noted Ranger on the Texan Frontier Captain Jack Hays: Famous Texan Ranger and Commander of Valiant Border Fighters Bill Hamilton: Famous Trapper, Trader, and Indian Fighter Uncle Job Witherspoon: And His Exciting Adventures with the Blackfeet Henry Shane: Heroic Scout of the plain of Teas Poor Jerry Lane: The Lost Trapper of Wyoming The Song of the Moose

  • Black History is for Everyone - cover

    Black History is for Everyone

    Black history is under attack from powerful right-wing forces that seek to excise it from classrooms and libraries. Its opponents fail to understand a simple truth: the best education challenges our assumptions and demands we keep at it. It makes us uncomfortable, helps us see larger forces at work, and gives us glimpses of alternate futures. 
     
     
     
    In Black History Is for Everyone, award-winning educator and scholar Brian Jones offers a meditation on the power of Black history, using his own experiences as a life-long learner and classroom teacher to question everything from the meaning of race and nation to the radicalism of the American Revolution. We see that "race" took centuries to get defined; we follow Frederick Douglass as he grapples with how to relate to the United States and, later, to Haiti; we compare the American, French, and Haitian revolutions; and we learn why the study of Black history has always been threatened. 
     
     
     
    In these pages, Jones offers a persuasive case for Black history and a celebration of the rewards of education. With warmth, immersive storytelling, and good cheer, Jones encourages us to delve deeper into our collective history, explores how curiosity about our world is essential—and reminds us that with stakes so high, the effort is worth it.

    A man who rose from nothing. A duchess with everything to lose. One irresistible transaction that exposes the truth behind luxury and desire.
    In this witty and incisive short story, Virginia Woolf peels back the glittering surface of high society. Oliver Bacon, London's most successful jeweller, is courted by a desperate duchess who tempts him with jewels, promises, and the illusion of acceptance among the elite. As their dance of ambition and vanity unfolds, Woolf reveals the insecurity, longing, and moral compromise hidden beneath wealth and status.
    
    Praised as "a brilliant satire of class and desire," this story sparkles with Woolf's psychological insight and elegant prose. Readers love its crisp tension, vivid characterization, and the quiet sting of its final revelations.
    
    If you enjoy sharp social commentary, compact storytelling, and Woolf's unmistakable narrative voice, this classic is a gem.
    
    Turn the page—and witness a world where temptation gleams brighter than truth.

    A Fascinating Exploration on Why the Darwinists' Theory No Longer Explains Everything 
     
     
     
    Everywhere there are characteristics of animals that do not want to fit into the theory of evolution anywhere. And man? Are we really the most adapted life-form on this planet? Today, more and more scientists who contradict the previous theory of evolution speak out. The theory fits the changes within the species, but it can no longer be reconciled with the inner workings of the cell. Some other influence that has so far escaped us is affecting evolution. It is called "Intelligent Design." Intelligent planning is suspected behind this. Anyone or anything—a spirit of the universe? aliens?—could be behind this planning. 
     
     
     
    In this must-listen book, Erich von Däniken uses countless examples to demonstrate the impossibility of the previous evolutionary idea. He quotes scientists who argue against the previous teaching, but also those who defend it. Unfortunately, established science still refuses to look at discrepancies and holes in the theory of evolution, even though it is quite obvious that there is more going on with regard to the development of all species, as well as human culture, than could be explained by the theory of evolution alone.
