A church's lies, harassment, abuse, and deceit. A must-read true story of a girl who took a courageous stand against an empire. This is a true story of a second-generation Scientologist, born into the lifestyle and strict structure of this church, and the extreme harassment and abuse that followed the departure from this so-called religion. Many in this day and age have heard of the Church of Scientology, but are unaware of the true scope of its reach, and the depth of its grip in our society’s structure. With opinion leaders, like big-time celebrities, vouching for this organized religion, can one truly trust the hype? Once one joins, are you truly free to leave in peace? This book offers an eye-opening view of what it is to be raised in the religious lifestyle of a Scientologist. And should you decide it’s no longer for you, how this billion-dollar empire seeks to destroy you as an individual, your reputation, your personal relations, and all you hold dear.Zum Buch
These stories were told to me by my friends and family. I've had to struggle with my disability for a long time. I want to write this book, I hope you find it interesting. It's from parts of my life that I've treasured. Especially with my relatives that I didn't know because we lived so far away, 550 miles away, from Indiana to Iowa. I loved our family vacations. You will find some stories from the bible. I hope you will see how important that book is to me. I have trouble every day. but I know He's in my life and without Him, I would not live. I know you have times when you've needed help. For a while, I couldn't even pray. I knew better but I had lost hope. I've had such help from the Veterans. I have friends now. And I trust those whom I know will be O.K. Please read the Biblical stories thoughtfully. They are scriptures passed down from six or seven thousand years ago.Zum Buch
The Top 10 – The European 19th Century – an Introduction A century of change. Some catastrophic, some fantastical. Europe reaches out its national tentacles in a global grab for Empire. At home, revolutions erupt and decay. Literature gains a widespread audience through advancing technology. Here, in this volume, authors absorb and then reveal their wondrous stories. Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart. A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere. In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted ‘Top Tens’ across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions – Why that story? Why that author? The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme. Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature. 1 - Top 10 - The European 19th Century 2 - The Body Snatcher by Robert Louis Stevenson 3 - The Lady with the Dog by Anton Chekhov 4 - The Cloak by Nikolai Gogol also known as 'The Overcoat' 5 - The Necklace by Guy de Maupassant 6 - The Story of B24 by Arthur Conan Doyle 7 - The District Doctor by Ivan Turgenev 8 - A Fight with a Cannon by Victor Hugo 9 - A Legend of Old Egypt by Boleslaw Prus 10 - A Passion in the Desert by Honoré de Balzac 11 - The Bundle of Letters by Moritz Jokai 1 - Top 10 - The European 19th Century 2 - The Body Snatcher by Robert Louis Stevenson 3 - The Lady with the Dog by Anton Chekhov 4 - The Cloak by Nikolai Gogol also known as 'The Overcoat' 5 - The Necklace by Guy de Maupassant 6 - The Story of B24 by Arthur Conan Doyle 7 - The District Doctor by Ivan Turgenev 8 - A Fight with a Cannon by Victor Hugo 9 - A Legend of Old Egypt by Boleslaw Prus 10 - A Passion in the Desert by Honoré de Balzac 11 - The Bundle of Letters by Moritz JokaiZum Buch
