Download or read book Mike: a Man for Others written by William Allen Quinlan Jr. and published by Abbott Press. This book was released on 2013-12-16 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Michael Andrew Quinlan entered the world in 1942 in Washington, DC, his birth was a miracle. According to at least one physician, his very conception was impossible. Twelve inches long, two-and-a-half months premature and weighing just over three pounds, Mike survived and thrived for the next sixty-six years. But in 2009, he died suddenly, just twelve days after being diagnosed with mantle cell B lymphoma, a virulent form of cancer that is difficult to diagnose. In Mike: A Man for Others, author William Allen Quinlan, Jr., Mikes brother, narrates Mikes story and the significant impact he had on those around him. The author presents a personal history that is part memoir and part biography, chronicling his brothers lifehis birth as the youngest of three boys; his parental background; his upbringing in Bethesda, Maryland; and his days as a student, US Marine, successful food and beverage manager, dedicated and accomplished golfer, certified member of the Golf Nut Society of America; and a loving husband, brother, father, and grandfather. Always heartfelt and sincere, and sometimes humorous, Mike: A Man for Others celebrates Mike Quinlans life, shares his stories, and teaches about loving life to the fullest, about giving, not taking.

Download or read book Man and Wildfowl written by Janet Kear and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2010-11-30 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The involvement of humans with ducks, geese and swans has probably been closer than with any other group of birds, today and for several millenia past. This involvement, in its many aspects, is the theme of this compelling and readable account by an Assistant Director of the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust. Dr Kear ranges widely, from a summary of the taxonomy and natural history of wildfowl, through a history of domestication world wide, to wildfowling, decoys, conservation and captive breeding, conflicts with agriculture, and wildfowl in legend and literature. Throughout, the text abounds with little-known facts and insights to intrigue the general reader and expert alike - a reflection of the author's wide reading and affection for her subject. Jacket illustrations by Joe Blossom.

Download or read book Gary the Goose Belonged written by Stephen & Karen Rusiniak and published by Pen It! Publications, LLC. This book was released on 2022-05-18 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There's a pond near the authors' West Ocean City, Maryland house where one morning they saw a goose limping, his one leg, twisted. Great gaggles of geese came and went daily on their autumn travels south, and try as he did, not one would allow this special goose to join their flock. For a time, he remained on the pond where his only friends were a duck and her ducklings. As we watched this special goose that we came to call, Gary, we couldn't help but to note the similarities between his struggles to fit in and present-day discrimination issues where being different too often means being excluded. One morning, the ducks were gone, and a few days later so too was Gary. For two years we wondered whatever happened to him until one misty morning we heard a flock of geese overhead and then watched as they gracefully glided onto the pond. And as they came ashore, we saw a goose struggling to walk. It was Gary! He was back, and now, was just another member of the flock. We decided to write a children's story about how inclusion champions exclusion; about a special goose who just wanted to fit in, and how, in the end, Gary the goose belonged.

Download or read book The Hiawatha written by David Treuer and published by Picador. This book was released on 2013-07-30 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An elegy to the American dream, and to the sometimes tragic experience of the Native Americans who helped to build it, The Hiawatha is both a moving portrait of a family, and a fast-paced, page-turning literary mystery of murder and redemption. Recently widowed, and encouraged by government relocation schemes to move Native Americans off their reservations, Betty takes her four young children from their Ojibwe roots to make a new life in Minneapolis. As Betty struggles to keep her family and her dignity intact, her younger son Lester finds romance on the soon-to-be-demolished train, The Hiawatha, while his older brother Simon secretly protects his mother by taking a dangerous job as a construction worker, scaling the heights of the skyscrapers that, once completed, will never welcome him. Twenty years later, Simon is released from prison for a horrible crime of passion. His return to Minneapolis sets in motion the dramatic, inevitable conclusion to one family's ceaseless fight to survive. David Treuer more than delivers on the promise he displayed in his acclaimed first novel, Little, and confirms his reputation as one of the most talented and original writers of his generation.
