Since its inception in the 19th Century photography has been a trusted source capturing both truth and reality. It cannot lie. Our eyes may deceive us, but the camera cannot. In this volume whilst our classic authors are at the early edge of photography’s development, they use it in ways that are both innovative and atmospheric as very often the camera and the photographer become a central part in many fascinating stories.

In this third adventure, the brothers search to find the traitor who has put their father and brother as well as the cause of independence in jeopardy. As they bravely, and sometimes impetuously search for the culprit, hoping to make him pay, they must also make a life-changing decision—to follow Major Tallmadge’s lead and train as Dragoon’s in the Continental Army or accept scholarships to Yale, leaving behind the danger of war and spy intrigue.

Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart. They can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere. In this volume the Mad Scientist takes centre stage. Naturally the stories come in all shapes and sizes and in the pens of our classic authors the scientists more usually arrive as dark, twisted and evil as they go about their work illuminating humanity as only a mad scientist can.

The Modern Age is one of information overload. Bombarded, surrounded, and battered by facts, figures, opinions and seemingly whatever else comes out of anyone’s head from all directions at all hours of the day and night. It’s exhausting.

Treestand Chatter invites you to head out with the author to his treestand. Though the treestand is typically used for archery hunts for whitetail deer, it is so much more than that. The more hours spent gawking at all that makes up nature itself leaves one in awe, appreciation, and worship of the God of the Word unfolded before your very eyes. Chatter can refer to your inner thoughts, your prayers, the fowl speech of geese, turkeys, chickadees, eagles, hawks, owls, and more. Accompanied by a number of good books is his pocket-size New Testament with Psalms and Proverbs.

In The Warwolf, Hermann Löns's acclaimed historical novel, the tragedy and horrors of war in general, and these times in particular are revealed. The Warwolf, based on the author's careful research, traces the life of Harm Wulf, a land-owning peasant farmer of the northern German heath who realizes after witnessing the murder of neighbors and family at the hands of marauding troops that he has a choice between compromising his morals or succumbing to inevitable torture and death.

Learning from Strangers is the definitive work on qualitative research interviewing. It draws on Robert Weiss's 30 years of experience in interviewing and teaching others how to do it.

October 25, 2023 was just an ordinary night in Lewiston, a small, working class city of 37,000 in central Maine. Friends and families had gathered to do what they loved to do with the people they wanted to be with at a bowling alley called Just-in-Time Recreation Center and Schemengees, a popular sports bar and restaurant. They felt immune from the violent crime that seemed to wrack the rest of the country in a state that the FBI had just named the safest in America.

Si consola con le tante delizie che l’isola offre anche agli stacanovisti come lei: granite, gelati, cannoli e menu di pesce. Nel frattempo, seduta a cena col laptop aperto, guarda distrattamente Nisso, diminutivo di Dionisso, chef belloccio e un po’ arrogante che le ricorda un giovane Antonio Banderas e manda avanti due ristoranti. Lui ha vissuto sempre in Sicilia, lei è cittadina del mondo. Lui ha poco più di trent’anni, lei poco più di cinquanta.

A criminal tax investigation is an unique white-collar case that only the IRS can investigate. For criminal defense attorneys to represent their clients well, they need to know a mixture of accounting, business law, and tax law. They also need to know how to deal with the IRS, its criminal investigators, and federal prosecutors who use IRS-Criminal Investigation in their prosecutions. When negotiating deals in criminal tax violations, the government will have their financial and tax expert—so should the defense attorney.
