Legacy
Legacy is about loss of inheritance and what we can do to reclaim it. The introduction summarizes the psychological tyranny inflicted on Africans and their descendants over the course of enslavement and Jim Crow. Legacy brings the past into the present with the story of Jeff Carter, a Black man born during "slavery" who, by 1916, acquired over 800 acres of mineral-rich land in the Middle District of Georgia. In this particular region, a mineral known as "chalk" to the locals, has produced a multi-billion dollar, foreign-owned and operated industry. Kaolin, as it is officially known, is predominately used in the paper and paint industries (National Geographic is about 30% kaolin), but is also...
Criterion
Criterion is the world’s mightiest hero. His sidekicks just found his body. The Cadets are shattered by the death of their idol. Unable to maintain their brave and plucky façade, they are consumed by strife and jealousy. The only thing keeping them together is terror. Once protected from on high, they are now isolated and vulnerable. Can they cover up Criterion’s death and avoid a global meltdown while his murderer is still on the loose? What hope do they have against an enemy that can kill anyone? Who killed Criterion? Who will die next?
The Catch
In every coastal town in Australia, there's a bait shop and a boat ramp, and, in garages around the country, fishing rods are strung up waiting for their next outing. Many of us have a special fishing spot, and families pass on tips from generation to generation and exchange fishy tales of amazing catches and near misses. Bringing her personal passion for throwing in a line, author Anna Clark celebrates the enduring pleasure of fishing in "The Catch: The Story of Fishing in Australia". This book charts the history of fishing, from the first known accounts of Indigenous fishing and early European encounters with Australia's waters to the latest fishing fads; from the introduction of trout and fly fishing to the challenges of balancing needs of commercial and recreational fishers. Fishing personality Rob Paxevanos, host of "Fishing Australia", says that "The Catch" is 'by far my best fishing read to date'.
The Literary Legacy of Jimmy Carter
Jimmy Carter’s expansive body of writing ranges across the genres of memoir, commentary, children’s literature, poetry, and a novel about the Revolutionary War. Editors Mark I. West and Frye Gaillard have assembled a group of award-winning journalists, poets, historians, and literary scholars to reflect on this substantial – and to some, unexpected – dimension of Carter’s legacy. Collectively, these essays, including several by the editors themselves, document a through-line of ethical integrity, perspective, and insight that runs through Carter’s writing – from his controversial trilogy on peace in the Middle East to his personal reflections on his Georgia boyhood. Carter never used a ghost writer. As a result, his distinct voice and point of view comes through in every book that he published.
Crowning Glory
Experience again the Los Angeles Kings’ amazing journey to the Stanley Cup Final: an unprecedented 2012 postseason run that culminated in the first Stanley Cup trophy in the franchise’s 44-year history. As the eighth seed in the Western Conference, the Kings delivered the surprise championship in dominating fashion, storming past Vancouver, St. Louis, and Phoenix to set up a final matchup against future Hall of Famer Martin Brodeur and the New Jersey Devils. Led by one astonishing performance after another by goaltender Jonathan Quick and timely scoring from Anze Kopitar and Dustin Brown, coach Darryl Sutter’s team dropped just two games to their higher-ranked opponents in the play-offs before ousting the Devils in six games. From the off-season trade for Mike Richards to the late-season acquisition of Jeff Carter through the final seconds against New Jersey, this commemorative book also includes in-depth profiles of Quick, Kopitar, Brown, Sutter, Richards, Drew Doughty, and Dustin Penner.
