Trees Are Not Radishes

ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
The novel is set in the early 1970s in the fictional town of Rooster, Arizona. The narrator is Kipp, a college dropout from Ohio who travels to Rooster to live with his Uncle Balbinus, a navy veteran of the second world war and later a photographer of nuclear bomb tests. Carving out a life in Rooster as a young photographer and taxicab driver for the Hopeless Cab Company, Kipp deals with the madness of Lenni the Chicken, his uncle’s fierce obsession over the massive devastation that mankind can unleash, and the challenges of living in a tough, isolated town that defines ammunition and firearms as currency. While Kipp attends a funeral at Sailor Mountain, he becomes enamored with Lovely Sailor. The antagonist of the story is the power-hungry Orli Ordzhowikidzepyatakov and his callous partners who forever lay siege to the inhabitants of Rooster. Perhaps the safest thing we can say is that Rooster is in the desert and the desert is an ominous place for the guileless and the unprepared.

The Happiest Life
Author: Hugh Hewitt
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 159555579X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 207
Book Description
What's the secret to a life of happiness? "In this delightful book brimming with humorous and poignant passages, radio personality Hugh Hewitt provides the answer. The starting place is generosity, he says, and there are seven gifts that are sure to improve the lives of both giver and receiver: encouragement, energy, enthusiasm, good humor, graciousness, gratitude, and patience. Anyone can give these gifts, but Hewitt shows that some people are particularly well placed to offer them: parents, spouses, family members, friends, teachers, coworkers, and fellow church members. Channeling his skills as a broadcaster, journalist, lawyer, and teacher, Hewitt weaves stories about these seven gifts and seven givers with inspiring and motivating observations to help readers become generous in the ways that matter most. "The Happiest Life is not simply a delight to read, and not merely a glimpse under the hood of a remarkable man. It’s a map to what Robert Frost once described as the road less traveled—the road that leads to a life of meaning and gratitude and joy.” —Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap., Archbishop of Philadelphia "Reading this book is the next best thing to sitting down for a long conversation with my friend Hugh Hewitt.” —Dr. R. Albert Mohler, Jr., president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary “Wanna be a happier person? Know anyone else who does? What if this book could actually help with that? Cutting to the chase—it can. And it will." —Eric Metaxas, New York Times best-selling author of Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy and 7 Men: And the Secret of Their Greatness

Morning Glory, Evening Shadow

Publisher: Stanford University Press
ISBN: 9780804780896
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 596
Book Description
This book has a dual purpose. The first is to present a biography of Yamato Ichihashi, a Stanford University professor who was one of the first academics of Asian ancestry in the United States. The second purpose is to present, through Ichihashi’s wartime writings, the only comprehensive first-person account of internment life by one of the 120,000 persons of Japanese ancestry who, in 1942, were sent by the U.S. government to “relocation centers,” the euphemism for prison camps. Arriving in the United States from Japan in 1894, when he was sixteen, Ichihashi attended public school in San Francisco, graduated from Stanford University, and received a doctorate from Harvard University. He began teaching at Stanford in 1913, specializing in Japanese history and government, international relations, and the Japanese American experience. He remained at Stanford until he and his wife, Kei, were forced to leave their campus home for a series of internment camps, where they remained until the closing days of the war.

Unbreakable
Author: W. C. Bauers
Publisher: Macmillan + ORM
ISBN: 1466847298
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 381
Book Description
Unbreakable by W.C. Bauers is character-driven military science fiction featuring a female marine caught between two empires. The colonists of the planet Montana are accustomed to being ignored. Situated in the buffer zone between two rival human empires, their world is a backwater: remote, provincial, independently minded. Even as a provisional member of the Republic of Aligned Worlds, Montana merits little consideration—until it becomes the flashpoint in an impending interstellar war. When pirate raids threaten to destabilize the region, the RAW deploys its mechanized armored infantry to deal with the situation. Leading the assault is Marine Corps Lieutenant and Montanan expatriate Promise Paen of Victor Company. Years earlier, Promise was driven to join the Marines after her father was killed by such a raid. Payback is sweet, but it comes at a tremendous and devastating cost. And Promise is in no way happy to be back on her birthworld, not even when she is hailed as a hero by the planet's populace, including its colorful president. Making matters even worse: Promise is persistently haunted by the voice of her dead mother. Meanwhile, the RAW's most bitter rival, the Lusitanian Empire, has been watching events unfold in the Montana system with interest. Their forces have been awaiting the right moment to gain a beachhead in Republic territory, and with Promise's Marines decimated, they believe the time to strike is now.
