Book Description
John "The Stranger" Brockman is back by popular demand! It will take more than his fists and a colt .45 to beat these killers. At twenty-one, Paul Brockman is the newest deputy U.S. marshal in his father's arsenal of lawmen. Bold and courageous, Paul proves to be every bit as skillful with a revolver as the chief U.S. marshal, John "The Stranger" Brockman. Five ruthless outlaws escape Yuma Prison but are soon captured, and Paul must transport them back to Arizona in an iron wagon. During the hazardous journey, Paul encounters Lisa Martin, whose parents were murdered by renegade Indians. The lovely young woman desperately needs his help and Paul is just the deputy to deliver Lisa to her destination. Could she be the answer to his prayers for a wife? But when the wagon comes under attack from Apaches, Paul is forced to think beyond his physical strength to get everyone out alive.

Book Description
An evocative murder mystery set in the Norwegian countryside, this story, like all good murder mysteries, is a stew of passion, buried past crimes, revelations, and sharply defined characters who remain ambiguous to the very end.

Now, using a striking two-color drawing style and re-casting the story with his iconic animal characters from his previous graphic novel Sshhhh!, the acclaimed cartoonist Jason has adapted The Iron Wagon into an original graphic novel that will appeal not only to fans of his work but also to mystery fans who will finally have a chance to experience Riverton's clever story.

Wagons and Wagon-graves of the Early Iron Age in Central Europe
Author: C. F. E. Pare
Publisher: Oxford University School of Archaeology
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 544
Book Description
This book concerns the four-wheeled wagons of the Early Iron Age and particularly the practice of wagon burial in Central Europe. First offering a typological classification of the material from the Urnfield and Hallstatt Periods, Pare then examines the technical aspects of wagon construction, and the information that may gained about the role of the wagon through other sources - including pictorial representations, wagon models, and horse-gear. His study brings to light a wealth and variety of evidence for the ceremonial use of the wagon, and places the wagon burials of the Hallstatt Period within a long European tradition of the use of wagons in cult.

Buda's Wagon
Author: Mike Davis
Publisher: Verso Books
ISBN: 1784786640
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
On a September day in 1920, an angry Italian anarchist named Mario Buda exploded a horse-drawn wagon filled with dynamite and iron scrap near New York's Wall Street, killing 40 people. Since Buda's prototype the car bomb has evolved into a "poor man's air force," a generic weapon of mass destruction that now craters cities from Bombay to Oklahoma City. In this provocative history, Mike Davis traces the its worldwide use and development, in the process exposing the role of state intelligence agencies-particularly those of the United States, Israel, India, and Pakistan-in globalizing urban terrorist techniques. Davis argues that it is the incessant impact of car bombs, rather than the more apocalyptic threats of nuclear or bio-terrorism, that is changing cities and urban lifestyles, as privileged centers of power increasingly surround themselves with "rings of steel" against a weapon that nevertheless seems impossible to defeat.

What I Did
Author: Jason
Publisher: Fantagraphics Books
ISBN: 160699414X
Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
This is an omnibus of three of the acclaimed cartoonist’s earliest graphic novels, which are about Scandinavian mysteries, childhood stunts gone wrong, and much more. What I Did collects Hey, Wait..., the first of Jason’s books to be translated to English, which tells the story of two childhood friends. A dreadful event midway through the story changes their lives forever; The Iron Wagon, an ingenious, atypically (for Jason) talky murder mystery set in early-20th-century Norway, adapted from a classic Norwegian novel by Stein Riverton―albeit starring Jason’s patented blank-eyed animal-headed characters and told in moody two-color panels.
