  The poacher of these "Confessions" was no imaginary being. Following in his father's and forefather's footsteps, he learnt from an early age the practical skills of poaching and woodcraft. It was, however, Mother Nature that made old "Phil" a Poacher but she also made him a Sportsman and a Naturalist at the same time. Never did any man appear in closer sympathy with the wild creatures about him. Even when about eighty years of age, there was still some of the old erectness in his carriage; some of the old fire in his eyes. As a young man he was handsome, though in later years his features were battered out of all original conception. His silvery hair still covered a lion-like head, and his tanned cheeks were hard and firm. If his life had been a lawless one he had undoubtedly paid a heavy price for his wrong doings. Great as a poacher, he must have been great whatever he had been. (Confessions of a Poacher / TND)

  Throughout history, the world has witnessed discriminations, hostilities, and injustices. It seems that no matter how much human beings evolve, racism will always be manifested in societies, and the fight against it is far deeper and more complicated than what activists, movements, and organizations like to acknowledge. 
  In Maverick: A Biography of Thomas Sowell (2021), Jason L. Riley details the views and theories of Thomas Sowell, one of America’s leading conservative economists. Riley presents a thorough and meticulous account of Sowell’s skepticism about some widespread perceptions regarding blacks, such as the need for racial preferences. Sowell believes that these perceptions have harmed the black community more than they have helped it. His work also points out flaws in black leadership and movements. 
  Riley offers a deep look into the character of Sowell and his extremely controversial views on social issues and economic activity.

  Hard Times

  Charles Dickens

  Hard Times is unusual in several respects. It is by far the shortest of Dickens' novels, barely a quarter of the length of those written immediately before and after it. Also, unlike all but one of his other novels, Hard Times has neither a preface nor illustrations. Moreover, it is his only novel not to have scenes set in London. Instead the story is set in the fictitious Victorian industrial Coketown, a generic Northern English mill-town, in some ways similar to Manchester, though smaller. Coketown may be partially based upon 19th-century Preston. One of Dickens's reasons for writing Hard Times was that sales of his weekly periodical, Household Words, were low, and it was hoped its publication in instalments would boost circulation - as indeed proved to be the case. Since publication it has received a mixed response from critics. Critics such as F. R. Leavis, George Bernard Shaw, and Thomas Macaulay have mainly focused on Dickens's treatment of trade unions and his post-Industrial Revolution pessimism regarding the divide between capitalist mill owners and undervalued workers during the Victorian era.
