Fannystelle n'est pas tant le récit détaillé de la fondation de Fannystelle, au Manitoba, que la narration des manigances et des escroqueries d'un personnage fort singulier, le chanoine Rosenberg, qui fut impliqué dans les tout débuts du village. C'est une histoire véridique et distrayante. Elle débute par l'altruisme, la générosité, le soutien à l'émigration francophone et à la pratique religieuse, mais bifurque ensuite vers un mélange de cupidité, d'abus de confiance, de mensonges flagrants et de détournements de fonds.

Riding Through It is a collection of stories written by equestrian women who have shown up openly and honestly. We describe ourselves as "horse people" and sometimes we describe ourselves as crazy too. Perhaps that goes hand in hand with deciding to love something so deeply. That love has the potential to make or break us- depending on how open we are to learning the lessons horses teach us. We are proud to be among the world's horse people, and the stories we share with you on these pages will show you why, strengthen your pride as a horse person, or maybe even make you wish you were one too.In this book, you will read stories of loss, heartbreak, grief, fear, pain, and rock bottom, but because of horses, you will also see them transform into stories of hope, resilience, love, awareness, self-acceptance, confidence, compassion, and awakenings. No two stories are alike. Each writer and the experiences they share with us are as unique as they are, but there is a thread that weaves each story together and connects every equestrian in the world: Horses test and transform us.

The Adventures of Philippine Maximine, P.I. is your modern equivalent of old radio shows that were heard over a radio wrapped in oak with its humming tubes filling the room with the wafting scent of electric ozone. Join Philippine Maximine in a series of unique situations that start as she investigates the disappearance of a brother in a nearly life-ending week in the scenic and beautifully dangerous Boundary Waters Canoe Area. Follow her back to the concrete terra firma city scape for an investigation into a husband's wrongdoing that turns into something much more. Philippine's set of adventures bring her to a situation far from standard as she investigates reports of two disappearances in a declining urban mall, events which will leave you questioning reality. Finally, journey back to Philippine's childhood with The Skeleton Man, where she meets the dreaded Rougarou and matches wits with the patently evil voodoo master of the dead, Baron Samedi.

Six nights in the Northwoods, two best friends, and one big secret. What could possibly go wrong? In her ultra-competitive family, April Beckett is used to taking last place. She's put up with years of jabs about her modest job and her pathetic love life. Especially after she tried to impress her older sisters with a fake boyfriend in college and failed miserably. But now she has a smoking-hot date for her brother's wedding, guaranteed to wow them. Until he bails. Cue total desperation. Without April's friendship, Brody Blackwood wouldn't have survived his last breakup. So, if she needs a plus-one for a family wedding, he's all in. Even if it means pretending to be her boyfriend. And committing to a week of activities at a wooded resort in Wisconsin. But how hard could a fall getaway with your best friend be? Too bad there's a grueling 10K race and a cutthroat trivia night to endure. Not to mention a massive secret to protect. But will the biggest secret of all be that this fake relationship feels more real than April or Brody ever imagined?

Caesar Ascending-India Limited Edition is the third volume of the bestselling alternate history series in which Caesar survives the assassination in March of 44 BC and carries out his planned invasion of Parthia. Now that Parthia has been pacified and turned into a Roman province, Julius Caesar sets his eyes on India, the mysterious land that the Macedonian King Alexander could not subdue. Determined to surpass Alexander's achievement, Caesar leads his vast army out of Parthia, and marching with him as always is Titus Pullus and his Equestrians, the famed 10th Legion. Landing on the western coast of northern India, what Caesar has never divulged, even to his most trusted officers, is that he is not going to be satisfied with anything less than reaching the eastern boundary of India, the River Ganges, Alexander's objective three centuries earlier, but which the Macedonian king failed to attain. In order to achieve this feat, his Legions must first face the famed war elephants of the Indian kingdom of Bharuch, but Caesar faces defeat not only from his enemies, but from the men of his own army when they finally learn that his intention is not to return to Parthia at the end of the fighting season. This campaign in India will prove to be Caesar's most challenging yet, and will be a test for his Legions as they stand and fight the armored behemoths that are the most powerful weapon of their time.This Limited Edition contains a Bonus Chapter and a montage of covers featuring Titus Pullus, Legionary of Rome, and the characters who impacted his remarkable career.

In many ways, Ebrahim Raisi epitomizes the religious fascism ruling Iran; a tyrannical regime that for more than four decades has inflicted immense suffering and pain on the Iranian people, the region, and many other countries, using the two instruments of domestic repression and export of terrorism and deadly conflicts abroad. This book may help introduce Ebrahim Raisi and explain the significant moment that his rise to the presidency of Iran represents. Raisi presided over the 1988 massacre of over 30,000 political prisoners in Iran, over 90% of whom were members, supporters, and family members of the PMOI (MEK). Raisi is known as the "Executioner of 1988" by the Iranian people for this horrific act of mass murder, genocide, and crime against humanity.

History is like tapestry. History is like compost. History is like a roadmap through time, only seen in reverse; or a thoughtmap laid over time (whatever that is) in retrospect. There are lines, there are paths, there are tangled threads, but there is also compaction and lithification. And there is also space. Five hundred years of time is vast and vacant. It is full of forgetting. Forgetting is the erosion of the matter of the world in a process sympathetic to the erosion of matter in the brain. History is a certain kind of space, then, with certain paths through, certain threads, with certain compaction simultaneously. Heidelberg is the third book in Holly Myers series, including the titles Road Noise and Wild Rough Country all from then/and.
