Languages : en
Pages : 125
Book Description
After becoming the top baseball prospect straight out of high School, Angel Parilla was so close to living out his childhood dream of becoming a Major League Baseball player. Making it to the bigs was so within his reach. He already began making arrangements to buy his mother the biggest house in all of Manhattan. But as luck would have it, during a regular pickup game, Angel suffered a career-threading injury that forced him to put his career on hold. As the months went by, Angel was determined to get back on point. Although he struggled, he worked extremely hard to get back on the road to success. Several more setbacks in his life made things even more difficult to carry out his mission, but Angel continued to fight. Landing a job to help his mother pay the bills was helpful; however, he was also trying to pay for the much-needed surgery as he continues his quest for success. His window of opportunity began to close as the months and years began to pass him by. The loss of his best friend changed everything, and yet he continued to push forward. Despite all his troubles, he did not give in. Angel would stop at nothing to make sure he was going to buy that house for his mother. Everything takes a turn for the worst when Angel losses everything. His toughness is put through the test like nothing he's ever seen or experienced. Life has a way of pushing when we are so close to the edge. For Angel, this was only the beginning.

Letters from the Trenches
Author: Jacqueline Wadsworth
Publisher: Pen and Sword
ISBN: 1473845297
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
A history of World War I—told through the letters exchanged by ordinary soldiers and their families. Letters from the Trenches reveals how people really thought and felt during the Great War, and covers all social classes and groups from officers to conscripts to women at home to conscientious objectors. Voices within the book include Sgt. John Adams, 9th Royal Irish Fusiliers, who wrote in May 1917: “For the day we get our letter from home is a red letter day in the history of the soldier out here. It is the only way we can hear what is going on. The slender thread between us and the homeland.” Pvt. Stanley Goodhead, who served with one of the Manchester Pals battalion, wrote home in 1916: “I came out of the trenches last night after being in four days. You have no idea what four days in the trenches means . . . The whole time I was in I had only about two hours sleep and that was in snatches on the firing step. What dugouts there are, are flooded with mud and water up to the knees and the rats hold swimming galas in them . . . We are literally caked with brown mud and it is in all our food, tea etc.” Jacqueline Wadsworth skillfully uses these letters to tell the human story of the First World War: what mattered to Britain’s servicemen and their feelings about the war; how the conflict changed people; and how life continued on the home front.

Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 9780738534381
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Custer County, South Dakota, is trees and prairies, Black Hills and buffalo, small towns and friendly people, mining and logging, farming and ranching, history and memories. It is the home of the Crazy Horse Monument. Custer State Park and Wind Cave National Park, where the Civilian Conservation Corps left many legacies, are here as well. But the individuals who did the everyday work are the ones who truly made a difference. These are the people who are celebrated within these pages, which contain over 220 vintage photographs, mostly from private collections. The only thing missing is the aroma of sawmills in operation that used to permeate Custer City. As the Custer Chamber of Commerce says, "You should see the Hills from here."
