A Little Light in the Darkness : The Life and Times of John Buddle...

By: by David Joseph Kidd

John Buddle was a local hero in North East England. When he died in 1843 his funeral procession was more than a mile long and thousands of pitmen lined the route to show their respect. He was a self made man who led his men from the front through floods, fires and explosions to get the coal Britain's industry depended upon. This book based on his unpublished diaries tells the story of his life in his own words, the drama, the tragedy, the lives of rich and poor in a way ...

For those on the surface that bright late spring morning, the twenty five pitmen who had escaped, others from the resting shift, and relatives of those still trapped underground the scene at the surface was terrifying. Within twenty minutes the water was sixty feet deep in the engine pit, the pit where the men were, and by the afternoon it was a hundred and twenty feet up the shaft...Buddle started pumping immediately, but the pumps at full capacity made no impression on...

Information Technology Tales

By: by Brad Bradford

This book also begins with that wondrous first Information Technology and then moves on to tales about the wonders of the written word—great stories, many of them likely new to most readers. In them, you‘ll find all the backgrounds, foregrounds, premises, conclusions, and surprises that make up the best and most valuable books.

In the Bible, God‘s first gift to man isn‘t a lesson about how to make a fire or fashion a needle, a knife, or a spear. He first blesses him with language. Even before He takes Adam‘s rib to make Eve, He tells Adam to name every living creature. Adam immediately understands God‘s words and enunciates his own.

Enrico el Matamoros : Escrito por Akbal Kan

By: by Akbal Kan

La historia de Enrico, el Matamoros, escrita de manera anónima por un tal Akbal Kan, forzado seudónimo en lengua maya de un conocido autor de letras hispanas, es, sin ningún margen de duda, la expresión literaria del descontento y la miseria que vive en conjunto el Pueblo de Honduras. En respuesta a tales desmanes, aparece esta pequeña pero divertida obra, que emplea el humor de las antiguas chanzas castellanas, aunque no su estilo, para ridiculizar, como en aquello...

Don Ibrahim, que se había apartado ya de la religión de sus padres y en cambio adoptado el cristianismo, llevó a casa a un pastor evangélico, “un apóstol” que era popular por aparecer en un espacio televisivo, para que viera a su desdichada y aquejada consorte. No obstante, con las visitas del apóstol el semblante de doña Mina, en vez de mejorar, empeoraba. No eran efectivos ya las tocaduras de los “mantos sagrados de Belén”, el beber de las “aguas traídas exclusivamente...
