Book excerpt: From the award-winning author of The Great Trouble comes a story of espionage, survival, and friendship during World War II. Bertie Bradshaw never set out to become a spy. He never imagined traipsing around war-torn London, solving ciphers, practicing surveillance, and searching for a traitor to the Allied forces. He certainly never expected that a strong-willed American girl named Eleanor would play Watson to his Holmes (or Holmes to his Watson, depending on who you ask). But when a young woman goes missing, leaving behind a coded notebook, Bertie is determined to solve the mystery. With the help of Eleanor and his friend David, a Jewish refugee--and, of course, his trusty pup, Little Roo--Bertie must decipher the notebook in time to stop a double agent from spilling the biggest secret of all to the Nazis. From the author of The Great Trouble, this suspenseful WWII adventure reminds us that times of war call for bravery, brains and teamwork from even the most unlikely heroes.

Book Synopsis They Became what They Beheld by : Edmund Carpenter

Download or read book They Became what They Beheld written by Edmund Carpenter. This book was released on 1970. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Through text and photography, They Became What They Beheld brings into vivid focus the changed sense of self and world that now marks modern life—most expressively in the young. Why long hair? Why the turn to drugs and the inner trip? But the changes do not only affect the young, they are part of all of us. Why the new, intense concern with fashion? Why the rapid expansion of the old limits of what was "proper"? Why that "gap" that divides the generations? The book takes the form of a notebook of images and commentaries juxtaposed in dramatic contrasts and continuities. Its rhythms are more concentrated and more violent than those experienced in conventional work. They belong to the world of icon, graffiti, cartoon—our world."--

Book Synopsis You Become What You Think About by : Vic Johnson

Download or read book You Become What You Think About written by Vic Johnson. This book was released on 2014-05-17. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buddha declared that, "The mind is everything. What you think you become." "You become what you think about all day long" is how Ralph Waldo Emerson expressed it. In "The Strangest Secret," the only personal development recording ever to receive a Gold Record, Earl Nightingale reveals that the secret is "You become what you think about." Using that principle, you can create an entirely different world than you live in today. Bruce Lee returned to the United States at the age of 18 with $100 in his pocket and the idea he often quoted that "As you think, you become." By the time of his early death a scant 14 years later, he had become a major motion picture icon and the father of mixed martial arts. Your subconscious mind is responsible for just about every major thing in your life. You don't have to consciously think about breathing, your heart beating, walking, or how to properly digest and metabolize the food you eat. Without the cooperation of your subconscious -- the deep recesses of your inner self -- change can be difficult to impossible. You might consciously have tried to lose weight. But if your subconscious mind was fixated on fattening food and how difficult exercise was, the experience was probably a challenge or a dismal failure. Therefore, changing one or more aspects of your life can't occur until you affect change on your subconscious. In "You Become What You Think About: How Your Mind Creates The World You Live In," Vic Johnson will take you step-by-step as he shows you how to harness and use the power of directed thought in your life.
