Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: King of Heists is a spellbinding and unprecedented account of the greatest bank robbery in American history, which took place on October 27, 1878, when thieves broke into the Manhattan Savings Institution and stole nearly $3 million in cash and securities—around $50 million in today's terms. Bringing the notorious Gilded Age to life in a thrilling narrative, J. North Conway tells the story of those who plotted and carried out this infamous robbery, how they did it, and how they were tracked down and captured. The robbery was planned to the minutest detail by criminal mastermind George Leonidas Leslie—a society architect and ladies' man whose double life as the nation's most prolific bank robber led him to be dubbed the “King of the Bank Robbers.” The New York Times proclaimed the 1878 heist “the most sensational in the history of bank robberies in this country.” An absorbing tale of greed, sex, crime, betrayal, and murder, King of Heists blends all the richness of history with the thrills of the best fiction.

Huntington and published by Library of Alexandria. This book was released on 1895 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accounts of bank-robberies and other exploits of outlaws and desperadoes are usually supposed to belong to the criminal-news columns of the daily paper and to the writer of sensational literature. When the robber is the only or the principal actor in the scene, and his prowess or brutality the only feature worth mentioning, the less said of it the better. But when a great crime is the occasion of great heroism, courage, fidelity, intrepid resistance, and the triumph of virtue over violence, then there is a story worth telling, and a lesson worth learning. It is such a story that is unfolded in the following pages. The attempted robbery of the Northfield bank, the refusal of Mr. Heywood to open the safe, his brutal murder by the baffled robber, the brave and successful fight made by the citizens, the flight, pursuit and capture of the bandits,Ñall this was familiar enough to the whole nation eighteen years ago. But such events easily pass from the recollection of men; while to a generation of young people now growing up it has never been known. To some of us it has seemed, therefore, that the time has come to tell the story again, not from the sensational point of view, but from that of heroism and loyalty to duty. The aim of the author has been to give a correct account of the facts involved, and leave them to convey their own lesson and inspiration. Revolting details have been omitted. All important statements are made upon the authority of eye-witnesses, where such testimony was accessible, and in most cases by the collation of a number of independent accounts.

Book excerpt: Many Christians believe that Satan can easily implant evil thoughts in their minds and will capitalize on every opportunity to harm them. Eight five per cent of the Christian community is said to be under direct satanic bondage with only those who are spiritually and emotionally healthy being able to ward off the devil. But, is this really the case? Can demons implant thoughts and otherwise control Christians? Does God lift his protection when we are emotionally or spiritually unhealthy? In addition, are demons passed down from one generation to another? Can personal experiences of demonization be explained in other ways such as Multiple Personality Disorder? What role might suggestion play? Most importantly, what difference does the cross and the blood of Christ make? The Stronghold of Grace takes readers on a tour of spiritual warfare that includes a study of Scripture, experience, reason and tradition. It proposes that the predominant stronghold in our life is that bestowed by Jesus Himself - our stronghold of grace.
