Summary

The British statesman, orator and author Winston Churchill served as prime minister twice, achieving legendary status for rallying the British people during World War II and leading the country from the brink of defeat to victory. In addition to his careers of soldier and politician, Churchill was a prolific writer, starting with war journalism charting his adventures in British India, at the Siege of Malakand, at Sudan during the Mahdist War and in Africa in the Second Boer War. He excelled as a writer of history, producing multi-volume studies of grand subjects to critical acclaim. Many of his speeches and parliamentary answers were also published in pamphlets and collected editions. In 1953 Churchill was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature ‘for his mastery of historical and biographical description as well as for brilliant oratory’.

    Do you want to improve your life and be happy and successful? 
Do you want to use the law of attraction to live your wildest dreams?This amazing book is a collection of positive affirmations made specifically for my beautiful black queens! 
We often struggle with negative emotions like anxiety and low self esteem in our teens and adulthood when we have not done the work to heal our inner child and truly nurture our mental health. If you find that these sentiments resonate with you, you may have come to realize that its time to begin loving yourself. 
But how? 
Positive affirmations are incredibly underrated. What they do not do is radically transform your mindset overnight. What they do is bring a sense of intentionality into your self-love journey. They are a symbol of your intent to reach emotional freedom and peace. With consistency, you can and will reverse the thinking patterns that are causing you emotional harm. 
Why will this book help? 
The simple answer is that it will serve as a constant reminder of the power of words: the beautiful and affirming words you can tell yourself to raise your vibration. It will help you to stop getting in your own way. It will be there as your support as you go through your journey to achieve radical self-love and joy. Instead of self-sabotaging, pick up this book and give yourself a little reminder of who you are. 
This book is the first step to start living the life of your dreams, order your copy and make yourself a priority!

    They Called Us River Rats: The Last Batture Settlement of New Orleans is the previously untold story of perhaps the oldest outsider settlement in America, an invisible community on the annually flooded shores of the Mississippi River. This community exists in the place between the normal high and low water line of the Mississippi River, a zone known in Louisiana as the batture. 
 
 
 
Until now the stories of this way of life have existed only in the memories of those who have lived here. They Called Us River Rats also explores the troubled relationship between people inside the levees, the often-reviled batture folks, and the river itself. It traces the struggle between batture folks and city authorities, the commercial interests that claimed the river, and Louisiana's most powerful politicians. 
 
 
 
Today Fry is among the senior generation of "River Rats" living in a vestigial colony of twelve "camps" on New Orleans's river batture, a fragment of a settlement that once stretched nearly six miles and numbered hundreds of homes. It is the last riparian settlement on the Lower Mississippi and a contrarian, independent life outside urban zoning, planning, and flood protection. This book is for everyone who ever felt the pull of the Mississippi River or saw its towering levees and wondered who could live on the other side.
