His romantic exploits, gun battles with wild tribesmen, cattle rustlers and criminals, encounters with dangerous animals and eccentric settlers are a hair-raising and often hilarious adventure. Eventually, as a high-ranking officer he played a crucial role in the war against the Mau Mau. This is a thrilling story of the last days of Empire and one mana s account of his exploits in a beautiful, untamed land peopled by eccentric settlers and primitive tribes people. A story of the courage and tenacity of one rugged individualist and his part in bringing civilization to that land.
"Modelling on the stand is an essential technique for today's fashion designers and dressmakers. With step-by-step instructions and clear illustrations Dawn Cloake removes the mystique and shows that once the basic skills of modelling classic blocks are acquired, even beginners can progress quickly to interesting and challenging garment designs. The book concludes with extensive sections on clothes, for special occasions, including evening dresses, fishtail skirts, and strapless and ruched bodices, and the new stretch fabrics - modelling garments such as swimwear, crop tops and leotards - so reflecting the needs of modern designers." -- back cover.
Geography in America at the Dawn of the 21st Century by Gary L. Gaile,Cort J. Willmott Pdf
Geography in America at the Dawn of the 21st Century surveys American geographers' current research in their specialty areas and tracks trends and innovations in the many subfields of geography. As such, it is both a 'state of the discipline' assessment and a topical reference. It includes an introduction by the editors and 47 chapters, each on a specific specialty. The authors of each chapter were chosen by their specialty group of the American Association of Geographers (AAG). Based on a process of review and revision, the chapters in this volume have become truly representative of the recent scholarship of American geographers. While it focuses on work since 1990, it additionally includes related prior work and work by non-American geographers. The initial Geography in America was published in 1989 and has become a benchmark reference of American geographical research during the 1980s. This latest volume is completely new and features a preface written by the eminent geographer, Gilbert White.

Do you sometimes have doubts about your Christian beliefs and your spirituality? Are you confronted with questions of faith more often than you want to be? Does your heart yearn for the confidence and joy that come with the Lord's "second blessing"? If so, Patricia Hofer is offering you an invitation to travel along with her, to find new meaning and practicality in the Lord's sanctifying grace. Her short chapters offer readable, daily installments, some that will reassure you and some that will provoke further study. Each reflects how the Lord works in our hearts day by day, coming to us most often in the small moves of singly focused thoughts. Hofer's first book Power of Yielding was an inspiring mental pilgrimage, where she related her dramatic conversion experience and described the personal relationship with the Lord that resulted from it. Today Hofer continues to read widely, searching for similar spiritual awakenings in the lives of other Christians and for the most fundamental and essential Christian truths. Her earlier background in Christian Science and decades of research, study, and prayer since leaving that denomination give her writing a unique, refreshing perspective. Perhaps some of the Lord's answers to Hofer's many questions are meant for you as well.
Whispers of Windmore: The Guardian's Rise by Caterina Christakos Pdf
In the quaint town of Windmore, where history whispers from every corner, Tia Lancaster lived as an outsider, her heart tethered to the mysteries and tales of old. But the arrival of a mysterious new neighbor, Alex, sets her on a path that would unravel her very existence and reveal a destiny far beyond her wildest dreams. "Guardian of Windmore" is not just a story; it's an epic journey through the veiled layers of a town steeped in secrets, a family legacy of guardianship, and the unyielding power of magic that resides within and around us. As Tia's once ordinary life becomes entwined with ancient prophecies and dark forces, she discovers that she is the latest in a long line of guardians tasked with protecting Windmore from a malevolent darkness that seeks to consume it. With Alex by her side, Tia begins to unearth her powers, a force so potent yet so foreign, that it threatens to overwhelm her. But as she delves deeper into her family's past and the town's history, she realizes that the darkness is closer and more personal than she ever imagined. Betrayal comes from where she least expects it, shattering her world and forcing Tia to question everything she believed to be true. The betrayal not only leaves her heartbroken but also strengthens her resolve. Tia finds herself standing at the precipice of a battle that had been brewing for centuries, with Windmore and its people caught in the balance. Armed with newfound powers and a deep love for her town, Tia rallies the community, discovering allies in unlikely places—among them, the hidden mages of Windmore, and the ordinary townsfolk, whose spirit proves to be as indomitable as her own. The narrative weaves through Tia's struggles to master her abilities, the complexities of her relationship with Alex, and the tension that builds as the darkness draws closer. Each character she meets along the way is richly developed, adding layers of intrigue and depth to the story. From the wise old bookstore owner who knows more than he lets on, to the skeptical local sheriff whose loyalty to the town is unwavering, each adds a piece to the puzzle of Windmore's past and present. As the final battle looms, Tia is faced with the ultimate choice—sacrifice everything she loves or watch Windmore fall into shadow. The climactic confrontation is a testament to her growth, a fierce display of power and determination that binds the town together in a fight for survival. The darkness is relentless, but Tia's connection to the ley lines, the guardians before her, and the people of Windmore forge a weapon no evil can withstand. "Guardian of Windmore" transcends the boundaries of traditional fantasy, blending elements of mystery, historical intrigue, and magical realism to create a world that is as immersive as it is enchanting.

As the dust settles and Windmore emerges from the shadow, forever changed yet undefeated, Tia looks to the future with hope. The darkness may return, but she and her town are ready—together, they stand as a beacon of resilience, guardians not just of Windmore, but of the light that dwells within us all. "Guardian of Windmore" is a testament to the enduring power of love and the unyielding courage of the human spirit, a captivating tale that will linger with readers long after the last page is turned.
Charles Hudson VC was one of the twentieth century's outstanding fighting soldiers. His military career through two world wars and in Russia in 1919 earned him a host of medals. He was also a man of deep feeling, an accomplished poet and, in many ways, a rebel. In this compelling biography, the author skilfully interweaves his own narrative insight with his father's wartime journals and other unpublished material. The narrative includes detailed personal descriptions of the Battle of the Somme and other actions. It recounts the authoress Vera Brittain's bitter reaction to the death of her brother Edward when under Hudson's command in Italy in 1918 and tells how Hudson, out of compassion for her feelings, did not reveal the truth until he met her in 1934. It tells of the extraordinary affair in the summer of 1940, when the Secretary of State for War, Anthony Eden, asked a meeting of senior army commanders in the then beleaguered Britain whether, in the event of a successful German invasion, their soldiers would agree to be evacuated to Canada or whether they would insist on going home to support their families.
