Summary

Helen Rowland's 'The Rubáiyát of a Bachelor' is a witty and insightful collection of aphorisms and reflections on the follies and joys of bachelorhood. Rowland's unique literary style combines humor with profound observations on love, relationships, and society, making this book a delightful read for those seeking both entertainment and meaningful insights. Set in the early 20th century, the book reflects the changing roles and expectations of men in a rapidly evolving society, offering a fascinating glimpse into the attitudes of the time. Helen Rowland, a prominent American writer and humorist, drew inspiration from her own experiences and observations of relationships and gender dynamics to create this work. As a columnist and social commentator, Rowland was known for her keen wit and sharp observations, which are evident in 'The Rubáiyát of a Bachelor'. Her writing style is marked by a clever use of language, irony, and satire, making her a popular voice in her time. I highly recommend 'The Rubáiyát of a Bachelor' to readers interested in humorous yet thought-provoking reflections on love and relationships. Helen Rowland's timeless wisdom and wit make this book a delightful and engaging read for anyone looking to explore the complexities of human emotions and behavior.

    Neighbors were unaware of what went on behind the tightly closed doors of a house in Fresno, California—the home of an imposing, 300-pound Marcus Wesson, his wife, children, nieces, and grandchildren. But on March 12, 2004, gunshots were heard inside the Wesson home, and police officers responding to what they believed was a routine domestic disturbance were horrified by the senseless carnage they discovered when they entered.By Their Father's Hand is a chilling true story of incest, abuse, madness, and murder, and one family's terrible and ultimately fatal ordeal at the hands of a powerful, manipulative man—a cultist who envisioned vengeful gods and vampires, and totally controlled those closest to him before their world came to a brutal and bloody halt.

    *When you set foot in an abandoned village, it can be quite a shock to realize you aren't quite alone...* 
Good news! Fun-loving, adventure-finding Steve is going on vacation! Bad news – *it's with the school!*  Not only will Steve have to endure the snore-worthy teachings of Mr. Notch, he also has to contend with Donnie Buggs – *the meanest school bully around*. Steve is heartened when his lady wolf Bob is able to go on vacation with them though – perhaps Buggs will be less likely to be so rotten with a full grown wolf staring him down. 
But, suddenly, Bob has gone missing, and it's up to Dork Steve and his loyal friend Alex to hunt her down. As much as he would like to avoid to go, Steve knows that Bob has gone missing in a creepy abandoned village not too far from the camp site. Little do Steve and Alex know that someone – or something – is also in the village... and they have a bone to pick. 
Abandoned Village is a page turning adventure that will engage any reader – whether they enjoy reading as a pastime or not. Just in time for the holidays, this book is a great read for children and an excellent way to spend the holiday vacation – on the edge of their seats!
