Isha fell to her knees knowing that he would call again for her even with the sound of his last breath still echoing in her ears. She thought there was no way her hero, husband, child's father and best friend could be gone. "But he's so strong." she whispered when nothing came but the reality of his death she yelled. "Soon you will all be deaaadd!!!" The tears streaming down her face and shrills from her cries began to quiet for a brief moment as she uttered, "I define Dro! So Roc without a doubt you will surely meet the definition of a man! 'Many chronicles of war are never told, for they are trapped within the minds of the dead men who carried them; but few to none there are some people who are strong enough to pick up where the dead left off to give the definition to what words could no longer explain...Vengeance.

A woman who was given up for adoption at birth, meets her biological family, only to discover her newfound brother, Scott Peterson, is a killer. Soon after her birth in 1965, Anne was given up for adoption by her mother, Jackie Latham. Welcomed into the well-adjusted Grady family, she lived a happy life. Then, in the late 1990s, she came back into contact with her mother, now Jackie Peterson, and her family—including Jackie's son Scott Peterson and his wife, Laci. Anne was welcomed into the family, and over the next several years she grew close to Scott and especially Laci. Together they shared holidays, family reunions, and even a trip to Disneyland. Anne and Laci became pregnant at roughly the same time, and the two became confidantes. Then, on Christmas Eve 2002, Laci Peterson went missing—and the happy façade of the Peterson family slowly began to crumble. Anne rushed to the family's aid, helping in the search for Laci, even allowing Scott to stay in her home while police tried to find his wife. Yet Scott's behavior grew increasingly bizarre during the search, and Anne grew suspicious that her brother knew more than he was telling. Finally she began keeping a list of his disturbing behavior. And by the time Laci's body—and that of her unborn son, Conner—were found, Anne was becoming convinced: Her brother Scott Peterson had murdered his wife and unborn child in cold blood. Filled with news-making revelations and intimate glimpses of Scott and Laci, the Peterson family, and the investigation that followed the murder, Blood Brother is a provocative account of how long-dormant family ties dragged one woman into one of the most notorious crimes of our time.
What will Roc do when he finally finds out the true identity of Solo? Will the bloodshed come from his own brother Lil Mac? Solo finally has to face his brother, and the consequences can be deadly.
In a personal memoir, the author describes her relationships with the two men closest to her--her father and his brother, Joseph, a charismatic pastor with whom she lived after her parents emigrated from Haiti to the United States.
Francis James Child's English and Scottish Popular Ballads, published in ten parts from 1882 to 1898, contained the texts and variants of 305 extant themes written down between the thirteenth and nineteenth centuries. Unsurpassed in its presentation of texts, this exhaustive collection devoted little attention to the ballad music, a want that was filled by Bertrand Harris Bronson in his four volume Traditional Tunes of the Child Ballads. The present book is an abridged, one-volume edition of that work, setting forth music and text for proven examples of oral tradition, with a new comprehensive introduction. Its convenient format makes readily available to students and scholars the materials for a study of the Child ballads as they have been preserved in the British-American singing tradition. Originally published in 1977. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
A NEW 2009 REVISED EDITION "Gorgeous commentary," according to Kirkus Discoveries in its review of Rabbi Halevi's work. "Halevi shines new light on a very old story, offering a brilliant interpretation of perhaps the most influential piece of scripture ever written... Her new tome is a targum -- basically a hybrid of translation and commentary -- of the opening chapters of Genesis. . .Halevi fills her elaborately footnoted expansion on the story of Adam and Eve (or Havah) with alternate translations, interpretive traditions, linguistic clarifications and explanatory dialogues. . .The author has an easy familiarity with modern biblical scholarship and willingness to parse stale orthodoxies. Her discussions of gender and theodicy are particularly piercing. 'Adam and Havah' offers a myriad of joys."
