The Kennedys Are Driving Him Crazy!
Author: John Randolph Parker
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 059501058X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
A man has always thought the Kennedy Camelot was, in fact, a public relations driven myth. He thinks Jack Kennedy was a do nothing Congressman and Senator, not to mention priapic. Because of this he believes "ask what you can do for your country" is a joke. And yet, everytime he turns on the television he sees a retrospective of Jack or Bobby and, frequently, an update on Teddy and what a great senator he is. John Maxfield, the protagonist, has had it. He literally can't stand hearing all of that praise for those he feels are not worthy of that praise. This is a work of fiction, but every charge made my John Maxfield is documented in numerous other biographical works, many of which are annotated in the bibliography.

Pages : 324
Book Description
The landmark history of France and French culture in the eighteenth-century, a winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize When the apprentices of a Paris printing shop in the 1730s held a series of mock trials and then hanged all the cats they could lay their hands on, why did they find it so hilariously funny that they choked with laughter when they reenacted it in pantomime some twenty times? Why in the eighteenth-century version of Little Red Riding Hood did the wolf eat the child at the end? What did the anonymous townsman of Montpelier have in mind when he kept an exhaustive dossier on all the activities of his native city? These are some of the provocative questions the distinguished Harvard historian Robert Darnton answers The Great Cat Massacre, a kaleidoscopic view of European culture during in what we like to call "The Age of Enlightenment." A classic of European history, it is an essential starting point for understanding Enlightenment France.

Wild Ride Home
Author: Christine Hemp
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1950691330
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 334
Book Description
** "This memoir seems written directly from Hemp’s soul, as she beautifully shares her moving story of learning to love and trust again after loss."--Booklist ** Christine Hemp's debut work of nonfiction, Wild Ride Home, is a brilliant memoir, looping themes of finding love and losing love, of going away and coming home, of the wretched course of Alzheimer's, of cancer, of lost pregnancies, of fly fishing and horsemanship, of second chances, and, ultimately, of the triumph of love and family--all told within the framework of the training of a little white horse named Buddy. Wild Ride Home invites the reader into the close Hemp family, which believes beauty and humor outshine the most devastating circumstances. Such optimism is challenged when the author suffers a series of blows: a dangerous fiancé, her mother’s dementia, unexpected death and illness. Buddy, a feisty, unforgettable little Arabian horse with his own history to overcome, offers her a chance to look back on her own life and learn to trust again, not only others, but more importantly, herself. Hemp skillfully guides us through a memoir that is, despite devastating loss, above all, an ode to joy.
