Sinopsis

The Man Who Knew Coolidge, written by Sinclair Lewis, is a satirical novel that presents a humorous and critical view of American life in the 1920s. The book centers around the character Lowell Schmaltz, who claims to have personal acquaintance with President Calvin Coolidge. Schmaltz, a boastful and self-aggrandizing narrator, is a typical Lewis character used to expose the pretensions and follies of middle-class America. Lewis uses sharp wit and irony to explore themes such as the American Dream, the pursuit of success, and the emptiness of materialism. The book is also notable for its commentary on political and social issues of the era, including business ethics, corruption, and the influence of media.

    ***NEW ZEALAND’S LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE*** 
    Two New Zealand Classics—now available with an introduction by Amberley Ember. 
    The year is 1865. 34-year-old Annie, freshly married, sets sail for New Zealand where she will serve as a helpmeet for her second husband, Fred. They live in Christchurch until they can build their house in the sheep-farming Canterbury High Country. Soon, Lady Annie Barker is tending to dogs and chickens, learning how to boil potatoes and galloping side-saddle on her horse through the fresh, miasma-free air. Just when the newlyweds begin to feel settled, they are caught in a great snowstorm, and swindled in a land deal. 
    This is two books in one: Station Life in New Zealand (1870) and Station Amusements (1873).

    ""The Black Candle" is a significant work by Emily F. Murphy, also known as "Janey Canuck". This early exploration of the illegal drug trade in Canada was initially published in 1922 based on earlier articles in Maclean's Magazine. Let's delve into the details:    Summary  Topic: The novel sheds light on the evils of the drug trade.  Setting: It focuses on Canada during the early 20th century.  Content: Murphy's exposé delves into the impact of drugs, including opium, heroin, cocaine, and marijuana.  Legacy: Her work led to laws governing narcotics in Canada, which remained largely unchanged until the late 1960s.  Emily Murphy's courageous exploration of this pressing issue remains relevant, and her efforts paved the way for greater awareness and regulation."

    From World War Two to the Jet Age, Ian Mackersey charts the thrilling and personal accounts of airmen who have jumped from their planes and survived. 
     
     
     
    Since the test pilot Harold Harris became the first man to save his life with a parachute in 1922 there have been over 120,000 air force pilots and crew who owe their lives to their parachutes. 
     
     
     
    Into the Silk is full of astounding tales of people who against the odds bailed out of their planes and were therefore able to enter the annals of the Caterpillar Club, a society open only to men and women who survive aviation disaster with the aid of a parachute. 
     
     
     
    Mackersey records dramatic moments during the Second World War when pilots leapt from their burning planes while still being shot at by enemy fighters. He uncovers the descent of the extraordinarily lucky man who jumped from his damaged bomber but had to put his parachute on while falling through the sky and the pilot who found himself attached to a moving train and was dragged along for miles. 
     
     
     
    The book highlights the debts that all of these survivors owe to people such as Leslie Irvin, who invented the modern parachute and Sir James Martin, the great designer of ejection seats.
