Book Description
For four thousand years, the Guardships have ruled Canon Space—immortal ships with an immortal crew, dealing swiftly and harshly with any mercantile houses or alien races that threaten the status quo. But now the House Tregesser has an edge: a force from outside Canon Space offers them the resources to throw off Guardship rule. This precipitates an avalanche of unexpected outcomes, including the emergence of Kez Maefele, one of the few remaining generals of the Ku Warrior race-the only race to ever seriously threaten Guardship hegemony. Kez Maefele and a motley group of aliens, biological constructs, an scheming aristocrats find themselves at the center of the conflict. Maefele must chose which side he will support: the Guardships, who defeated and destroyed his race, or the unknown forces outside Canon Space that promise more death and destruction.

The City in Slang
Author: Irving Lewis Allen
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0195357760
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
The American urban scene, and in particular New York's, has given us a rich cultural legacy of slang words and phrases, a bonanza of popular speech. Hot dog, rush hour, butter-and-egg man, gold digger, shyster, buttinsky, smart aleck, sidewalk superintendent, yellow journalism, breadline, straphanger, tar beach, the Tenderloin, the Great White Way, to do a Brodie--these are just a few of the hundreds of popular words and phrases that were born or took on new meaning in the streets of New York. In The City in Slang, Irving Lewis Allen traces this flowering of popular expressions that accompanied the emergence of the New York metropolis from the early nineteenth century down to the present. This unique account of the cultural and social history of America's greatest city provides in effect a lexicon of popular speech about city life. With many stories Allen shows how this vocabulary arose from city streets, often interplaying with vaudeville, radio, movies, comics, and the popular songs of Tin Pan Alley. Some terms of great pertinence to city people today have unexpectedly old pedigrees. Rush hour was coined by 1890, for instance, and rubberneck dates to the late 1890s and became popular in New York to describe the busloads of tourists who craned their necks to see the tall buildings and the sights of the Bowery and Chinatown. The Big Apple itself (since 1971 the official nickname of New York) appeared in the 1920s, though first in reference to the city's top racetracks and to Broadway bookings as pinnacles of professional endeavor. Allen also tells fascinating stories behind once-popular slang that is no longer in use. Spielers, for example, were the little girls in tenement districts who danced ecstatically on the sidewalks to the music of the hurdy-gurdy men and, when they were old enough, frequented the dance halls of the Lower East Side. Following the trail of these words and phrases into the city's East Side, West Side, and all around the town, from Harlem to Wall Street, and into the haunts of its high and low life, The City in Slang is a fascinating look at the rich cultural heritage of language about city life.

Book Description
Praise for The Days I Dream of Chocolate... "The Days I Dream of Chocolate” is a cozy read. The overall thematics can be understood by and are relatable to anyone; any reader can find something to take away. The allusions and, often, the diction are quite charming and occasionally quite clever." ~ Matt, Editor, FlukyFiction "Unique, engaging and definitely a piece of work that is strong and memorable. Each poem here is different, not one even verges on being the same, and the contextual nature of the poems means there is so much more in the depths of these poems than what is first noticed when read. I think - and I hope - that this book will be a piece of work others reference when writing from different points of view." ~ Rhys Milsom, Poet Description: The Days I Dream of Chocolate is a collection of poems that focuses on the different facets of love, from falling in love to growing into self-love, and everything in between. Great for those moments of pure infatuation, or simply to relive the sensations of love all over again, this collection will leave you with a flutter in your heart and a deeper appreciation of what it means to LOVE. No assembly necessary, some chocolate required.
