She also happens to keep chickens and two milking goats, Snowflake and Eloise, and is regionally known as the passionate founder of the Goat Justice League. Since Grant began keeping milking goats several years ago, she has learned firsthand the remarkable benefits and beauty of keeping goats -- how much healthier and easier to maintain a yard with goats can be, the tolerance levels of neighbors, the health benefits of non-industrial foods, and how interacting with goats inspires a connection with nature.

Book Description
Life for me wasn't always easy, but I made the best of it. I grew up in two towns called Attapulgus and Bainbridge, GA. You probably never heard of them because they are so small. The population is less than 500 to this day. It's on Hwy 241 and off Hwy 27. It only has one traffic light. When you come through the town you will see all the houses on one side--that's about 15 houses. Most houses got cats and dogs in their front yard, but not this town. They have hogs, goats, cows, chickens and their bitties (baby chickens) following them. Now that's what you call country as hell. What I'm about to tell you will make you laugh and want to kill me for the things I did to people growing up? This book is mainly about four men. The first one: some people called him Fadlow and some called him Buddy. But, he had another name he was called. He hated it. The name was Booger Nose Mule Train. The second: ShakerHead. The third: Splinter. And last, but not least, myself, BAD ASS ROBBIE DUKE.

Book Description
Rotting Man Goes to Town deals with an adult relationship; which is in deep trauma from the outset of the story. Its technique is predominately dual narration, going from him to her vantage points. There are two sides to every story. Some of the language is hard-hitting, with angry scenes or mindsets, including some swearing. Political incorrectness exists in parts. The emotions are raw. It is a compelling and authentic read. It begins badly. How will it end? The initial setting is in America, with flashbacks to Britain, meant to counter the: hurt, sadness and anger, by the use of the device of injecting past comedic episodes. Levity and tragedy are seen in animal antics. Thus, the humorous scenes are meant to bring a balance to the novel overall. With the exception of the animals’ names, which remain true, all human names have been changed.

Book Description
The image that comes to mind when you think of big game hunters is of African safaris with men carrying enormous guns hunting exotic game. But there were women on those trips as well, and not just the trips to Africa, and they were often as successful at the hunt as the men. Women such as Lady Florence Dixie, Agnes Herbert, Osa Johnson, Grace Gallatin Seton, and Gladys Harriman hunted so well, they made names for themselves and wrote of their adventures. Divided into chapters detailing a specific time period, region hunted or individual woman, With Rifle and Petticoat explores the interesting women who hunted a variety of big game animals around the world.
