"The Good Old Days"
Author: Ernst Klee
Publisher: Konecky Konecky
ISBN: 9781568521336

Pages : 344
Book Description
One of the most painfully riveting books of our time. A first hand account of the greatest mass murder in history as told by the active and passive participants in genocide. What is different about this book is that it contains carefully compiled letters, journal entries and voluminous correspondence that prove beyond doubt that more members of the German population than ever before admitted to, knew about the Holocaust while it was happening.

Farewell To The Good Old Days
Author: David R. Greatrix
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1525535757
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
Farewell to the Good Old Days is a lively and intimate tale by David Greatrix, a man who has lived a dynamic professional life, first as an aerospace engineer and then as a professor of the subject. The book, leaning heavily on the actual life experiences of Greatrix and a number of his academic colleagues close and far away, is divided into two discrete parts; the book’s narrator for both parts is nominally a fictional consolidated representation of Greatrix, drawing from various sources in addition to the author. Part One covers the narrator’s childhood and early adulthood, followed by his moving into his years of growth as a professional breaking into the challenging field of aerospace engineering. Part Two tracks the narrator’s subsequent twenty-five-year academic career as a professor of aerospace engineering at a university in a major urban centre. Prominent in this story are the many challenges the narrator encounters in his navigation of academe in a high-profile setting for engineering education. In an emotional narrative that never strays far from various shades of humour, the narrator shares the details of his teaching and research experience at his institution, frequently bumping up against the pointy bits of an evolving cosmopolitan academic culture. In colourful detail, the narrator reveals the small successes, notable failures, unexpected events, and crushing disappointments that describe his tenure at his university. The narrator is especially candid in his revelations about episodes of betrayal. He takes aim at big targets, including the Canadian government, university administrators, and the academic superstructure as a whole. The result is an enlightening view into an individual’s complicated experience in a demanding world that serves as a microcosm of society at large.

Book Description
Looking back on the past, it is often easy to remember the best of times and forget the worst. It is easy to overlook the harsh realities of life as it once was and take for granted things that were once seen as extraordinary. In The Good Old Days: A Reflection Upon What We Individually and Collectively Choose NOT to Recall, author Rick Spleen shares his perspective on the way the past is remembered and why we should respect those who came before us: their toils, efforts, and achievements. It is especially important to recognize those of the founding generation who made possible the rapid advancements for humanity in the last 250 years. From fashion to technology, from war to medicine, this book takes a closer look at our world, by reflecting upon the past to provide a better perspective of today. The world we live in, and humanity, may not be perfect, but we've come a long way from where we once stood, in a relatively very short period of time.

ISBN: 1663237174
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 388
Book Description
In his first collection of poetry, 2019: A Year in Verse, we saw writer Douglas Palermo deal with grief, depression, and spiritual rebirth as he was hurled unexpectedly into the chaos that would be the year 2020. Now in this new collection of poetic word portraits, 2021: A Year Inverse, we get to join him as he confidently marches back. He is still processing the grief, still carrying the depression, but he has matured in his faith through the mastery of his craft.

There will be no encore. There will be no curtain call. The cellar door has been closed. The author has seen his shadow and is ready for his soul to spring forth to higher dimensions and realities. So join him for this one last peek through his I of the Universe. Enjoy!
