DOWNLOAD EBOOKBefore Mad-Dog or his bodyguards could react fully, they were both cut down by the harsh crack-ling sounds of firing guns. Somehow mad-dog managed to pull out his matching sot of pearl handle 45s from his shoulder holsters, and fired off four wild shots at his assassins. But, his 45s were useless against the two death machines. Both barrels found their target, catching mad dog and his bodyguards high in their chests, flinging them violently back into the door. Bits and pieces of red flesh splattered against the door like a huge ink-blot as Mad-dog slid to the floor.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis fascinating book is the first volume in a projected cultural history of the United States, from the earliest English settlements to our own time. It is a history of American folkways as they have changed through time, and it argues a thesis about the importance for the United States of having been British in its cultural origins. While most people in the United States today have no British ancestors, they have assimilated regional cultures which were created by British colonists, even while preserving ethnic identities at the same time. In this sense, nearly all Americans are "Albion's Seed," no matter what their ethnicity may be. The concluding section of this remarkable book explores the ways that regional cultures have continued to dominate national politics from 1789 to 1988, and still help to shape attitudes toward education, government, gender, and violence, on which differences between American regions are greater than between European nations.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"The Red Debt" by Everett MacDonald is an absorbing work with intriguing characters and a gripping plot that keeps readers curious until the end. Excerpt: No imagery can adequately picture the profound grandeur and wide wild beauty of these Kentucky highlands. At the age when its purity was whitest, a great moon hung midway between Southpaw peak and Moon mountain. Its divine splendor, unalloyed with any tithe of partisanship, laved with a mystic luster these two primeval ranges that had scowled impenitently at each other, behind their mask of flowers and tinseled verdure, across the lethal gulch separating them, for fifty blood-touched, feudal years.
