Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A Book for Non-Readers(Hammock not Included)People once viewed books as cheap entertainment. All that was required was a good book and a pair of glasses (if over forty). A plush hammock in the shade was an added luxury. Today people have neither the time nor the attention span to read a novel. The good news is that reading is like riding a bicycle; the skill will return. Short stories are training wheels for novels. They train the brain for larger projects such as a novel. The Amorous Spotted Slug consists of fifteen short stories in a variety of genres. Despite the similarities to Uncle Joe, they are works of fiction. The best way to read this book is to pick the stories that pique your interest.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - On August 30th, 1862 twenty-four year old William Goodman left his wife and three small children to join the 5th Michigan Cavalry. He participated in numerous conflicts under the leadership of George Armstrong Custer including the battles at Hanover, Gettysburg, and Monterey Pass. On October 11, 1863, he was captured near an obscure town on the James River and died nine months later at Andersonville Prison. Those battles as well as the depredations at Andersonville Prison are well documented. What lacks documentation are Goodman's emotions and inner most thoughts. William Goodman-Civil War Horse-soldier is a work of non-fiction in that weaponry, geography and individual troop movements are meticulously adhered to and provide an accurate historical account.It is also a work of fiction in that the novel fleshes out the participants and reminds the reader that these were real people whose endurance and resolve were pressed to the ultimate limits. The dialogue is sprinkled with humor, which may seem out of place, but it is the author's experience as a medic with the 4th Inf. Div. in Vietnam that humor is often all that maintains one's sanity during the stress of combat. New estimates now place the cost of the Civil War in terms of human life at three quarters of a million people. After observing the death toll at Gettysburg, Robert E. Lee was moved to tears and postulated that 'It is well that war is so terrible-lest we should grow too fond of it'. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Life is peaceful for twelve-year-old Chogan and his ten-year-old sister, Kanti, until Sioux warriors with hideously painted faces attack their village along the southern shore of Gitche Gumee. The raiders burn wigwams and overturn meat drying racks, and then escape by canoe-all except for one warrior who retreats into the woods with an arrow embedded in his thigh. Search parties find no trace of the missing warrior. While checking his snares, Chogan stumbles upon the missing warrior only to discover the warrior is Takoda-a mere boy no older than Chogan. With Kanti's help Chogan removes the arrow from Takoda's thigh, saving his life. Now Chogan and Kanti must conceal Takoda's presence from the angry villagers who seek revenge. To complicate Chogan's already complicated life, a traveling Winnebago merchant discovers the returning Sioux warriors have lied to their people. They claim they were victims of an Ojibway ambush, and that the Ojibway captured and tortured Takoda. Takoda's grandfather, who is chief of the Sioux, is now preparing to avenge his grandson's death. If Chogan and Kanti are to prevent certain war between two mighty Indian nations, they must deliver Takoda to his grandfather. They must paddle half way across Gitche Gumee in the dead of night while evading Sioux and Ojibway scouts (both of whom might kill them if captured) and then return Takoda to his grandfather. Their only assistance comes from the Gitche Manitou who provides a brilliant display of Northern Lights (waasanoode) to guide their way. Chogan and the Sioux Warrior is the third novel in the Chogan Native American Series. It has a Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level of 4.6.…
