Book excerpt: This is the story of a most unusual hobo. His real name is Henry Best, but all those who know him call him by the moniker Lefty. In the beginning, Lefty is as emblematic a vagabond as thousands of others too, which roam the nation during the early parts of the twentieth century. That is, he was until time and a few particular experiences turn him into a remarkable hobo. He is a rather complicated character to begin with and also a shrewd and sharp one too. Lefty’s greatest enjoyment in life, besides traveling, is telling children tales of his travels while he and they are gathered around his campfires. Although it is great fun and entirely harmless, many adults frown upon this because they either see danger to their children from Lefty or generally dislike hobos. One day, Lefty discovers a box during one of his countless wanderings. It lay half-submerged in a creek and when he retrieves it he finds that he can’t open it because it is a so-called strong box. However, later on and with the help of some children friends, who brought him tools to his camp, he managed to get it open. To his and the children’s disappointment, the box only contains some pocket change and papers. He divides the money equally with the children and put the papers back into the box and hides it. Lefty went away after he got roughed up by some locals and travels thousands of miles, crisscrossing the nation. He goes through thick and thin during the following year. Lefty lives through numerous adventures and he is nearly killed a couple of times too. That strong box he had found will profoundly change his life and other people’s too. He just didn’t know it yet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poetry of Benoist Saul Lhoni is a commitment act and a pursuit of the absolute. This volume which is the sum of his poetic work, responds to a double paradigm, the exploration of form and that of meaning, to better bringing out the dazzling truth. The poetic structure chiselled, with minimalist footage that makes its intensity and which, thus collected and precise, says a lot without unnecessary chatter. Benoist Saul Lhoni's poetic art possesses a vivid aesthetic , a fiery metaphorical sense, ready to pounce... He opens the corners of his itinerary as a man, a son and a lover. Fragments of truths are hidden there that lead us back to our back roads.

Book excerpt: Take the worry out of parenting… These days, parenthood and anxiety seem to go hand in hand, especially given that it’s harder than ever to raise happy, well-adjusted kids in our complicated world. And all parents long to figure out just who their child will become when he or she grows up. But with websites, media, and other parents providing an endless stream of advice about how to raise a perfect and perfectly happy child, how can you really know whom to trust? Susan Engel draws on her years of experience as a developmental psychologist, educator, and mother to help parents stop worrying about their young children’s future and stop trying to control their formative years. Offering an intriguing new way of thinking about child development, she uses both personal and professional research to identify problematic behaviors that require intervention and gives reassurance about those that don’t. Unlike many parenting experts, Engel encourages perspective and acceptance: rambunctious children will calm down as they find activities to absorb their intellectual energy; similarly, as shy kids grow, they will learn how to reach out to others on a one-to-one level. Engel provides straightforward guidance about issues of major concern for parents—happiness, intelligence, love, and morality—while blending stories about real children with relevant and up-to-the-minute social and clinical research. This absorbing narrative is an indispensable tool that will restore your sanity, help you sleep better, and put the joy back in child-raising.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hegel and Manfried Grossbart may not consider themselves bad men -- but death still stalks them through the dark woods of medieval Europe. The year is 1364, and the brothers Grossbart have embarked on a naïve quest for fortune. Descended from a long line of graverobbers, they are determined to follow their family's footsteps to the fabled crypts of Gyptland. To get there, they will have to brave dangerous and unknown lands and keep company with all manner of desperate travelers-merchants, priests, and scoundrels alike. For theirs is a world both familiar and distant; a world of living saints and livelier demons, of monsters and madmen. The Brothers Grossbart are about to discover that all legends have their truths, and worse fates than death await those who would take the red road of villainy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by a friend's hypothesis - that great leaders or creative geniuses, apparently from humble backgrounds, may have royal ancestry in their distant past, which will 2flare up3 at the appointed time - Buchan creates 14 self-sufficient stories, each set at different historical periods spanning 1000 years, linked only by the passing down through the generations of a gold ring, and the common surname of some of the tales' heroes. Each story hints at one person who lives to continue the line through history; the tales range from the era of Norse legend, via Norman England, mediaeval Bruges (an English heroine, wife of a Flemish merchant), a French king's envoy undertaking a fearful journey to Tartar lands during the Crusades; the 100 years war (Maid of Orleans and her admirers,) exploration in Columbus' time, Huguenot riots in Paris, Walter Raleigh dying on a voyage to West Indies, Oliver Cromwell debating regicide with his legal advisor, Catholic/Protestant feuds in 1600's London, a spy in Jacobite Scotland, 3 trappers in Kentucky, and finally, the death in Indiana of Nancy Linkhorn, mother of a future leader in the 19th century, the 2first American3 but also 2the last of the Kings3.
