Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This Ruler is an allegorical story about veteran teacher Zack Tyndall and a group of immigrant and local students at Elysium Hills High School. The novel is a cutting exposé about the American education system written in a style that blends magical realism with philosophy with just a bit of satire. The story follows student characters Sialia Torres and James Malachite from their first day of high school to their last. The students and teachers navigate a school landscape in which private publishing companies and ambitious school administrators materially benefit from the constant churn of curricula and state-mandated standardized tests. The novel has two basic components: the story of teenagers and their journey through their high school years, and an exposé of the business plan of the publishing companies that make the standardized tests and curricula. The story is told in a non-linear order that alternates between the honest, humorous antics by the teenagers and dishonest actions by school administrators, an educational consultant, and the publishing companies that make the standardized tests and curricula. The stories are infused with life lessons, master art work, poetry, natural history, and history. A parallel story unfolds as two teenage Aztec Native Americans flee the conquistador Hernán Cortés during the conquest of Mexico some five hundred years ago. The students in the book are on their own personal journeys to overcome challenges of being immigrants and what it means to belong.…

Softcover. Zustand: New. This is a gun book. It is not simply a book of war stories, it is sixty-five interviews with soldiers and Marines who relate their experiences with US infantry weapons in combat during World War II and Korea. Each man had his own opinion on the weapon that he had used and relates those observations to the reader. The differing opinions of these men are fascinating. One man loved the M1 rifle and hated the M1 carbine, while the next loved the M1 carbine and hated the M1 rifle. Much of what collectors and history buffs think we know about the use of US infantry weapons in combat has been derived from movies and books. Some movies, like 'Bank of Brothers' are very accurate, others are not. The general history books rarely contain in-depth details of firearms usage. The stories about US infantry weapons contained in this book are the real hands-on experiences of the men who actually used them for their intended purposes. When I first read these interviews, I could not put the manuscript down.' - Scott Duff 6 X 9 inches, softcover, photos, illus, 237 pages.…
