""No Dudes, Few Women: Life With A Navaho Range Rider"" is a memoir written by Elizabeth Lester Ward about her experiences living and working on a Navajo reservation in the 1970s. The book details Ward's move from the East Coast to the Southwest, where she takes a job as a teacher on a Navajo reservation. She soon meets a Navajo range rider named Ben, and the two begin a romantic relationship. Ward's memoir provides a unique perspective on Navajo culture and daily life on the reservation. She describes the challenges she faced as a white woman living in a predominantly Navajo community, including learning the Navajo language and adapting to the local customs. Ward also discusses the gender roles and expectations within Navajo society, as well as the impact of the government's forced relocation of Navajo families in the 1960s. Throughout the book, Ward reflects on her personal growth and the lessons she learned during her time on the reservation. She also provides insight into the Navajo people's connection to their land and the importance of preserving their culture. ""No Dudes, Few Women"" is a captivating and thought-provoking memoir that offers a unique perspective on Navajo life and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A Letter from Frank is the story of Frank, a German from Czechoslovakia who served as a German paratrooper in the Second World War, and Russ, a small-town Canadian kid who was a tank commander in a Canadian armoured division. On the last day of the war, Frank and Russ fought each other. In the days after, they became friends.
This is the remarkable tale of a long-forgotten letter. It was written from Germany in the aftermath of the Second World War to a Canadian in a peaceful Southern Ontario town. Both had been soldiers and had met on a German battlefield. The letter lay unseen for years and was found by the Canadian's son long after the old soldier's death. This book tells how that faded letter led to the discovery of the one-time German paratrooper who became his father's friend in the immediate aftermath of the war. A Letter from Frank is part war story and part biography, following the lives of Russ Colombo, the Canadian soldier, and Frank Sikora, the German paratrooper. One grew up during the Depression in Ontario, the other was a German in Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia. This non-fiction narrative also chronicles author Stephen J. Colombo's struggle to come to terms with a father haunted by the war. Their recollections provide insights into the events that shaped the generations that forged a modern Canada and rebuilt Germany after its near-total devastation.In a surprising twist, this book also provides previously unknown historical details of later NHL president Clarence Campbell at war (Campbell was Russ Colombo's commanding officer).
An Emmy Award-winning writer for The Colbert Report follows in the (big) footsteps of Bigfoot: I Not Dead. Monsters have it tough. Besides being deeply misunderstood, they suffer from very real problems: Mummies have body image issues, Godzilla is going through an existential crisis, and creatures from the black lagoon face discrimination from creatures from the white lagoon. At heart, these monsters are human; after all, you are what you eat. Quirkily illustrated, Sad Monsters hilariously documents the trials and tribulations of all the undead creatures monster-mad readers have grown to love, from vampires and werewolves, to chupacabras and sphinxes, and even claw-footed bathtubs.

The candid, poignant, unforgettable writing of the young girl whose own life story has become an everlasting source of courage and inspiration. Hiding from the Nazis in the "Secret Annex" of an old office building in Amsterdam, a thirteen-year-old girl named Anne Frank became a writer. The now famous diary of her private life and thoughts reveals only part of Anne's story, however. This book rounds out the portrait of this remarkable and talented young author. Newly translated, complete, and restored to the original order in which Anne herself wrote them in her notebook, Tales from the Secret Annex is a collection of Anne Frank's lesser-known writings: short stories, fables, personal reminiscences, and an unfinished novel, Cady's Life.
"The chief part of the New Testament and the perfect gospel." -Martin LutherNew believers may find it difficult to understand scripture, and at times, this would discourage them from reading and studying the Word of God. Even seasoned Christians tend to use different terminology that is unfamiliar to new believers. This can make it difficult when we are trying to disciple a new believer. With this book, I wanted to make it easier for both parties to engage the Word of God and to be able to teach the Word of God in a simple fashion. The Book of Romans is one of the most powerful books in scripture, and this Bible study commentary can make the Book of Romans intellectually and spiritually stimulating to the new and seasoned believer. May God bless and keep you. Amen.
A contemporary thriller pitting a lowly reformed hacker against an FBI/Secret Service task force. Set in the Texas Hill Country, the novel interweaves the seemingly incongruous worlds of the computer underground with the fate of abandoned Southeast Asian conflicts American prisoners of war, building to a denouement that ties in with real world political events.
