The Lies of Sarah Palin
Author: Geoffrey Dunn
Publisher: St. Martin's Press
ISBN: 1429929324
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 465
Book Description
In The Lies of Sarah Palin, Geoffrey Dunn provides the first full-scale and in-depth political biography of the controversial Republican vice-presidential candidate and former governor of Alaska. Based on more than two-hundred interviews---many of them with Republican colleagues and one-time political allies of Palin's---and more than forty-thousand pages of uncovered documents, Dunn chronicles Palin's troubling penchant for duplicity in grim detail, from her dysfunctional childhood in Wasilla through her contentious run for mayor and her failed governorship of Alaska. He also provides the shocking inside story of her betrayal of running mate John McCain during the 2008 presidential campaign and her self-serving resignation as governor in July of the following year. Dunn deftly places Palin in the American tradition of right-wing demagogues---from Huey Long to Joe McCarthy---and details her troubling obsession with Barack Obama as it fuels her own political ambitions and a potential run for the presidency in 2012. The Lies of Sarah Palin is a journalistic tour de force that vividly reveals the Queen of the Tea Party movement as a vengeful and manipulative empress without clothes. This is the definitive book on Sarah Palin.

Book Description
In this second book in the Lynburn Legacy, the sorcerous roots of Sorry-in-the-Vale have been exposed. Now no one in the town is safe, and everyone has to choose sides. Will the townspeople (magical and not) become "owned" by the sorcerers who believe it is their right to rule? Or will it continue in a more modern vein, with the presence of the sorcerers playing a quieter--and much less violent--role. If Kami Glass has anything to say about it, evil will not win. Despite having given up her own piece of magic, she is determined to do everything she can to make a difference. And whether they want to or not, her circle of friends (and potential boyfriends) will not be able to help but follow her and go along with her unusual schemes and battle tactics.

Book Description
Writing has come naturally to Ashley Crystal Lili Bueche since about sixth grade, Mrs. Dauber's English class to be precise. Her first poem described her thoughts and observations of a Salvador Dali painting. In her memories, it is as if it was yesterday, a farm-like landscape with decaying animals and such. From that day forward, words seemed to pour out from deep within her soul, creating migraines if she doesn't write each and every letter quickly enough. These words she has written as her own journal, a diary if you will, of her thoughts, feelings, words, and experiences. Those who truly know her will recognize some of the stories that provide the background for each poem. She must always keep a pen and paper close and available at all times, for her deep thoughts strike at any moment! A few strokes of a pen let out all of the emotion and stress that is pent up within her, waiting to be released. Once she has committed her thoughts and words to paper, she is able to insure her peace of mind and soul. To write for her is to breathe fresh morning dew air, a pleasure and a must for survival.
