Prohibition in the United States: A History From Beginning to End by Hourly History (429 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

Prohibition in the United States * * *Download for FREE on Kindle Unlimited + Free BONUS Inside!* * * Read On Your Computer, MAC, Smartphone, Kindle Reader, iPad, or Tablet. For thirteen years, from 1920 to 1933, the transportation and sale of alcoholic beverages were prohibited in America. This "Noble Experiment" was undertaken because its supporters believed that alcohol was the single major cause of both crime and poverty. They believed that prohibiting alcohol would lead to the end of poverty and slum housing in the United States and that prisons and jails would no longer be needed. However, the precise opposite proved to be true. Prohibition led directly to rising crime rates, widespread illegal behavior amongst ordinary Americans, and a loss of respect for laws, law enforcement, and for the apparatus of government. How could something based on such good intentions go so disastrously wrong? Inside you will read about... Alcohol in Colonial America Prohibition Propaganda The Noble Experiment Life under Prohibition Organized Crime and Corruption Repeal Day And much more! This book tells the story of the temperance movement in America, of its rise over a period of one hundred years to encompass the growing women's movement, and how it eventually attained its goal in 1920. It tells the story of Prohibition itself, of how people exploited loopholes in the law to continue drinking legally, and of how they simply ignored the law and drank illegally. It tells the story of the bootleggers and corrupt officials who made fortunes from Prohibition and the politicians who supported and attacked it. This is the story of a bold experiment undertaken for the very best of reasons which led to the worst of outcomes.

Escaping The World God's Way (Life in Christ) by Joan Boney (4 Reviews)    Price verified 7 hours ago

If someone offered you a lifetime guarantee of success in everything you do on this earth, would you be interested? Is this possible? Yes, definitely. For it is God who offers this to HIS people. Psalm 1... Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. Whatever we do will succeed, turn out well! if we will meditate in that WORD given to us by God by HIS Spirit, doing that shown us by God. It is amazing, but it does work. I saw this scripture shortly after I was born again in 1975, and have lived by it since that time. Jesus promised a similar thing in the following: Mt. 6... But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and HIS righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. This book presents many of the promises God makes to HIS people, starting with a chapter on the subject of God's guarantee for our success and the thing we do to enter into this covenant with God. II Peter 1... Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, According as HIS divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of HIM that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

But I'm Afraid of Spiders ... And, Mary from Ohio (The Pleasant Valley Novellas and The Silent Struggle Between Horror and Humor) by John McGinnis (1 Review)    Price verified 10 hours ago

Toshiro Watanabe: Do you have any childhood fears? By childhood fear, I mean a particular fear that stretches back to your earliest memories. A childhood fear is a fear that is so embedded in your childhood, that it becomes part of your childhood's very definition. Take my fear of spiders. It's a very primordial fear living within me. It's instinctual, but it's also kind of silly. I loathe spiders for the way they look, that's it. It's foolish, but I can't help it. It doesn't matter that most spiders are harmless. It doesn't matter that spiders are beneficial to mankind. I hate them. They are grotesque. You could say that I am being irrational, and you would be right. That doesn't change anything though. I am afraid of spiders, and I am in good company. Mild arachnophobia is common. It is easy to understand, and it is easy to explain. Spiders are frightful creatures. I have another childhood fear. It is not so easy to explain. My parents watched a television program called 'Mary from Ohio' when I was in kindergarten. It was about ten or eleven years ago, and most of my memories surrounding 'Mary from Ohio' are fuzzy and vague; however, I have certain memories of the show itself which are very sharp. I remember the opening scene showing a cozy looking home and soft, warm music played behind the voice of Mary's affectionate mother, calling her name. I remember that well. I also remember Mary herself. She was a fully grown, adult woman wearing a pinafore over a dress and pigtails. Mary wore childish clothes and childish hair. I can remember Mary screaming and crying. I can remember Mary's fear and Mary's horror (although, I never understood what had Mary, so terrified). - But most of all, I can remember one thing about Mary. It was forbidden for me to look at her. Mary was bad. Mary was dirty. Mary was frightful and frightful things were happening to her. I was never told what these frightful things were. That was left to my imagination, and that was left to my ...

The Blue Church: Or: The Only Home a Ghost Ever Had (The Pleasant Valley Novellas and The Silent Struggle Between Horror and Humor) by John McGinnis (2 Reviews)    Price verified 11 hours ago

Some say the El Dorado is haunted. I doubt that. Ghosts are not real. Hotels are not alive. They don't have memories. The El Dorado is just a dwelling of brick, wood and glass. In that sense, it is just like every other hotel in the world. It's just uglier. That doesn't mean it's haunted. The only home a ghost ever had, was in somebody's head. "There is a rational scientific explanation for everything and there are neither ghosts nor gods." That's what mom taught me, and I believe her. I know that there are many who disagree. Some even claim to have seen a ghost. I will not call them all liars. I do not doubt that many alleged hauntings are reported by those who truly believed themselves to be witnesses of the paranormal. Sometimes our eyes, ears and minds can deceive us. When this deception occurs it can be quite convincing. I should know, it happened to me. Without going into too much detail, I thought I saw a ghost myself when I was five. She was a little girl about my age dressed in white. This ghost looked just like a normal living being with one exception. Her mouth was missing. In its place was a gaping dark cavity. Upon looking directly into the brown eyes of this apparition. I heard her voice speak to me, inside my head. This voice spoke, "Children are better seen and not heard." I screamed and wet myself. My mother flew to me like a phantom. For the life of me I could not explain why I screamed, and I could not explain to mother why I had wet myself. Fear of the little girl without a mouth tightened my vocal cords. Fear of my mother froze my lips into silence. The smell of my urine burned the inside of my nostrils. A wooden spoon burned my ass. My encounter was nothing but a hallucination. It occurred during the night following my first day of kindergarten. My first day of school did not go so well. Even though I was afraid of my mother at that age, I was terrified at having to leave her side to spend the day among strangers. That one day in my life ...
