Book Description
My name is Rashid King. I was born on a Plantation in the environs of Biloxi, Mississippi, in 1839 and ran away in 1859. Back then, Biloxi was definitely no place for a Black man. While fleeing the American Civil War, I met Farouk, a powerful Vampire of Persian lore. He turned me into one of the Undead. Well over a century later, I live in the City of Toronto, Ontario, and I've become a leader among the local Vampire Community. With my lady Dominica Alvarez and my good friend Alexander Poe, two extremely powerful Vampires, by my side, I fear nothing. Unfortunately, these are dark times, as the humans are now hunting us. They've recently discovered our existence after centuries of secrecy and want to eradicate us. If the Vampire Community is to survive, I must make some hard choices. Wish me luck. Peace.

The Snakes of Ontario
Author: E.B.S. Logier
Publisher: University of Toronto Press
ISBN: 1487586272
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 153
Book Description
Many people have a great fear of snakes. This fear affects their peace of mind, their enjoyment of a holiday in the country, and even their pleasure in their own suburban gardens. It leads to the senseless destruction of one of our valuable natural resources. The morbid fear of snakes can only be dispelled by learning the true facts about these fascinating creatures. This book is addressed to anyone who wishes to learn about the natural history of snakes, or to identify those found in Ontario, but the author speaks particularly to young people, who, unless they have been prejudiced, have a natural interest in all living things. In an easy, conversational manner, the author gives a general account of snakes--what they are, how they travel, their instinct and intelligence, how they feed, their reproduction, hiberation, shedding of the skin, defences usefulness--and discusses popular beliefs and fear of snakes. The separate species are fully described in a simple, non-technical and readable style. The author is also an artist, and the book is illustrated with his own wash drawings and line sketches. There are two beautiful colour plates. Distribution maps show the range of species. For those wishing to pursue the study of snakes more fully, an appendix provides a list of snakes with scientific names, a key for the identification of the snakes, directions for determining their sex, directions for collection and preserving, directions for determining their sex, directions for keeping snakes as pets, diagrams giving anatomical names of parts of snakes, a glossary, and a concise and up-to-date outline of rattlesnake bite and first aid treatment.
