George Alfred Henty (8 December 1832 - 16 November 1902) was a prolific English novelist and war correspondent.He is best known for his historical adventure stories that were popular in the late 19th century. His works include The Dragon & The Raven (1886), For The Temple (1888), Under Drake's Flag (1883) and In Freedom's Cause (1885).G. A. Henty was born in Trumpington, near Cambridge. He was a sickly child who had to spend long periods in bed. During his frequent illnesses he became an avid reader and developed a wide range of interests which he carried into adulthood. He attended Westminster School, London, and later Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, where he was a keen sportsman. He left the university early without completing his degree to volunteer for the Army Hospital Commissariat when the Crimean War began. He was sent to the Crimea and while there he witnessed the appalling conditions under which the British soldier had to fight. His letters home were filled with vivid descriptions of what he saw. His father was impressed by his letters and sent them to The Morning Advertiser newspaper which printed them. This initial writing success was a factor in Henty's later decision to accept the offer to become a special correspondent, the early name for journalists now better known as war correspondents.Shortly before resigning from the army as a captain in 1859 he married Elizabeth Finucane. The couple had four children. Elizabeth died in 1865 after a long illness and shortly after her death Henty began writing articles for the Standard newspaper. In 1866 the newspaper sent him as their special correspondent to report on the Austro-Italian War where he met Giuseppe Garibaldi. He went on to cover the 1868 British punitive expedition to Abyssinia, the Franco-Prussian War, the Ashanti War, the Carlist Rebellion in Spain and the Turco-Serbian War. ...........
They heard from the headman that the whole country near the river was densely covered with bushes, and that the ground was swampy and very difficult to cross. They agreed, therefore, that they would form a strong intrenchment at the spot where they were to embark. It was unlikely in the extreme that the Romans would seek to penetrate such a country, but if they did they were to be opposed as soon as they entered the swamps, and a desperate stand was to be made at the intrenchment, which would be approachable at one or two points only

In the nowhere town of Ubiquity, a weird little kid called f.O.g, unwittingly challenges a terrifying alien invader to a duel, to decide the victor of half of the world's resources. Against all odds, f.O.g is victorious, and is hailed as "Forever, Our Greatest".f.O.g is at one level a simple tale of a weird little kid who saves the world from an alien invasion, just by being himself. At a deeper level though, this is a book designed to promote conversations, understanding and appreciation for those on Autism spectrum, and for those caring for them, living with them.The tale is told from the child's point of view, and develops a theme of transformation of perception, by changing the perspectives of others involved in the tale, and those reading it. The metaphor is the metamorphosis that occurs through the story of a 'grub' becoming a beautiful butterfly.My hope is that as grown-ups read f.O.g with kids, there will be a growing sharing and understanding that we are all on 'the spectrum'. It's just a matter of perspective and perception; of how we see situations and people, compared to who they really are. Also, that reading and discussing this story will enable some helpful and healing conversations for those of us on 'the spectrum'; the weird little kids, and those weird little kids who have grown up.

At last-the cure for anyone who has ever had 'boy' or 'girl' problems...Charles Kellam's The Book of G.A.M.E. takes the 'game' that has long been a household name-reinvents it, and makes it his own-an acronym for 'Getting a Major Edge.' This is The Universal Handbook of Dating and Life that is just as relevant as it is effective. A self-help/motivational piece, it rebuilds men from scratch and gives damsels insight on what to expect from a man with "edge". Covering the importance of fashion, confidence, chivalry, and many other overlooked blunders, the author, stand-up comedian, and humanitarian breaks the mold of what's been done before and builds a much better one. Painfully honest, yet refreshing. The goods are here-with the author's raw personal accounts spawned from travels, his entertainment career, and dating. The author is a polymath when it comes to dating & life-and it shows through the pages. His fearless and avant-garde approach of courting will reshape relationships as we know it. This book is one of one.Quotes from The Book of G.A.M.E: - "A damsel judges a man in the first 2 seconds based on his shoes."- "There's no cure for the insecure."- "Everything you want to know about a woman, you can learn from her feet."Tongue-in-cheek, raw, and inventive, Charles Kellam introduces a new way of thinking. His interactive voice will lure you in, entertain, and enlighten you. The Book of G.A.M.E. is also funny-a powerful and refreshing dating tool that will be a conversation piece for years to come."The Book of G.A.M.E. represents the creative genius of Charles Kellam. Finally, there is a work that helps us navigate the often murky waters of developing relationships and steers us away from the sea of books that often say the exact same thing. Kellam hits the bullseye on dating and he does it from a very practical, common sense perspective. Each chapter is loaded with invaluable advice that will aid not only in one's search for the right person, but also advice that helps the reader to be the right person as well."-Dr. Damone B. Jones, Sr., Senior PastorBible Way Baptist Church/Philadelphia
