Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
The Amazing Tom Mix The Most Famous Cowboy of the Movies Tom Mix was a town marshal and cowboy in the Oklahoma Territory, a rodeo champion and a wild west show performer. With his devil-may-care attitude, quick wit and penchant for doing breath-taking stunts on his wonder horse, Tony, Tom Mix went on to become the #1 movie cowboy of silent films, earning millions of dollars at a time when movie tickets cost pennies. While he basked in this incredible acclaim, Tom Mix lived in fear that his deep, dark secrets would be discovered and his career and his cherished heroic image would be destroyed. Celebrated author Richard D. Jensen has spent more than 30 years researching the life of Tom Mix, the man hailed as "the idol of every American boy." With incredible detail, much of it gained from hundreds of original letters, records, documents and eyewitness accounts, The Amazing Tom Mix cuts through 100 years of public relations mythology, tall tales and outright lies to bring the true and inspiring story of a man whose Saturday matinee cowboy image would become the standard for all of the movie cowboys who rode the silver screen after him. "Here is Tom Mix as he really was...a captivating biography ... brilliant ... delightful ... It is a splendid book." -Richard S. Wheeler, five-time Spur Award winning author of Trouble In Tombstone. "... the most complete biography of Mix's life of trials, tribulations and victories." -John Duncklee, author of Bull By The Tale.

Plunge into the middle of dark and deadly places, and find yourself pitted against malevolent entities that lurk in the shadows! Colonel Tony Collins of Army Military Intelligence evolved into a NSA powerhouse and became well known and respected in the international intelligence community. The Cryptography System that he developed is now legendary in combating terrorism and crushing crime, and has been adopted by all of the American Intelligence agencies. His awesome and uncanny ability to decrypt the most sophisticated communications of al Qaeda and the top Russian criminal mastermind, has damaged the fabric of their dangerous and powerful organizations. Tony's strategies have been responsible for derailing their nefarious plans! The NSA has just received photos of a man who had been training al Qaeda insurgents to build Improvised Explosive Devices to kill American troops. No outsiders knew what this elusive killer looked like, he kept his face hidden from view! A Mossad agent paid for these photos with his life. Much to Tony's amazement, he is a striking mirror image to this high-ranking leader of al Qaeda! As a result of this revelation, Tony is trained for his first undercover mission. Now that al Qaeda possesses nuclear bombs and is preparing to unleash them on American shores, Tony must be inserted, replacing his Doppelgänger, who is the number four man in al Qaeda! Using this mysterious resemblance, he must glean their attack plan, and safely escape to try to stop them. During his mission, Tony discovers an unthinkable truth! The noble victories that he orchestrated were brilliant and were performed more smoothly than the maneuvers of a chess master. He was the guardsman at the gate, watching, listening and waiting. Tony's victories were achieved at a high price. The hunter will soon become the hunted! Both he and his family have been marked for revenge as he faces his enemies' relentless forces in a battle to the death!

From Androboros to the First Amendment
Author: Peter A. Davis
Publisher: University of Iowa Press
ISBN: 1609383117
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Androboros, A Bographical [sic] Farce in Three Acts (1715), is universally acknowledged as the first play both written and printed in America. Its significance stems not simply from its publication but from its eventual impact. Androboros was not just the first of its kind, it was also ahead of its time in many ways, preceding the harsh political satires and farces of the later eighteenth century by some fifty years. The play inadvertently laid the foundation for one of the defining rights of the nation that would eventually emerge some seventy-five years later - the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States. As a closet drama intended only to be read by close friends and political supporters, this play has languished as a minor footnote in American intellectual history. Scholarly research published to date has been, for the most part, inadequate and occasionally inaccurate. This study remedies that oversight, providing a full analysis as well as an annotated typescript and facsimiles of the original printing. -- from back cover.
