Beschreibung

In "Thomas Jefferson Brown," James Oliver Curwood weaves a rich tapestry of adventure and introspection, encapsulating the complex relationship between man and nature through the lens of the protagonist, Thomas Jefferson Brown. Curwood employs a lyrical narrative style that blends vivid descriptions of the wilderness with psychological depth, reflecting the burgeoning American ethos of exploration and self-discovery during the early 20th century. This novel not only serves as a microcosm of early American life but also engages with themes of identity, resilience, and the indomitable spirit of the wilderness, inviting readers to reflect on their place within the natural world. James Oliver Curwood, a dedicated naturalist and author, drew upon his extensive experiences in the great outdoors to craft this compelling tale. His upbringing amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Northern Michigan profoundly influenced his writing style and thematic choices. Through his deep appreciation for nature, Curwood emerged as a key figure in the early conservation movement, striving to inspire a sense of responsibility towards the environment and the raw beauty of the American landscape. Readers seeking a blend of adventure, thoughtful character development, and an exploration of the human spirit will find "Thomas Jefferson Brown" an enriching experience. Curwood's poetic prose and gripping narrative will resonate with those who appreciate tales of courage and self-discovery, making this a timeless addition to the canon of American literature.

    Captain Calder Velden, a ruthless seafaring servant of the Secret Dutch Allegiance, had been summoned to serve his state in territories unknown. 
    1586AD his beloved homelands were under Spanish Rule, there seemed to be no answers on how the resistance could end the tyranny. Backed by incredible wealth, King Phillip II of Spain had established a World Power hell bent on conquering all known territories. 
    The Dutch Allegiance knew the Spanish had discovered an untapped source of wealth in the territories of Nueva Guinea. It was time to send their cut-snake captain to disrupt and cripple the southern supply of gold to the Spanish Treasury. 
    Calder was in command of the new stealth ship, ‘The Kharon’, specifically made for the mission. Christened after the mythical ferry boat of the underworld, she was to pursue, raid and pillage enemy merchant ships along the trade route south of Bantam and leave no survivors! 
    However, the unpredictable cloak and dagger mission itself could not have foreseen the Captain and Crew being entangled in mass murder, hoards of treasure, discovery of new lands and revenge that would span the best part of twenty years. 
    Everyone knows you must be responsible for your actions; but when you mix gold fever, pride, revenge and the open seas then perhaps you may be forgiven for forgetting your responsibilities. 
    In the case of The Kharon and her crew’s greed, wealth may just play second fiddle to survival. 
    A tale entwined around historical events!

    Charlotte Browne could just kick herself. What on earth possessed her to tell the Duke of Rockford that she is a lady? But something about the duke’s handsomeness and kind intelligence makes Charlotte blurt out the teeniest, tiniest falsehood. Now it’s too late to admit she’s just plain Charlotte of no particular importance—with cinder-stained hands, a wretched stepfather, and no prospects for marriage. Rafe Dorchester, Duke of Rockford, has done what every self-respecting duke must do—avoid marriage at all costs. But the only thing stronger than the duke is his mother, and she lays down the highest ultimatum: he’ll need to find a duchess, immediately. Only, when he calls on a potential bride, he instead finds the pert, fresh-faced Lady Charlotte. Rafe was warned to never mix the business of marriage with pleasure, but when it comes to Lady Charlotte…oh, business would be a splendid pleasure. Except Charlotte knows that true life is nothing like the penny romances she reads. The duke can’t actually end up with a maid. When her vile stepbrother catches her coming from the gardens with the duke close on her heels, Charlotte knows just what he’ll do. And there’s only one way to save them all from scandal…

    Good Samaritan gunslinger Perley Gates returns for a new action-packed adventure from legendary national bestselling Western authors William W. Johnstone and J. A. Johnstone set in historic Texas. 
     
     
     
    Perley's elder brother, Rubin, who manages the Triple-G Ranch decides to try breeding some Hereford cattle with the ranch's longhorns. He asks Perley to deliver the contract for the Herefords, a simple task. But nothing ever remains simple when Perley is involved. And for the reluctant fast gun, it means a nightmare journey through hell itself . . .  
     
     
     
    The trouble starts when Perley and his sidekick, Possum, meet some damsels in distress—a lovely group of saloon girls with a broken wagon wheel. Being a good Samaritan, Perley feels honor-bound to help them. But when the travelers cross paths with an ornery gang of vicious outlaws, things turn deadly—and fast. It only gets worse from there, for Perley agrees to escort them to Nacogdoches—next to Angelina County, a section of which is infested with a special breed of vermin known as the Tarpley family. And this corrupt clan has a gunslinger—who'd love nothing more than to take down a living legend like Perley Gates . . .
