Bodies in Barrels: The Snowtown Murders by Jack Smith 3.8 Stars (156 Reviews)    Price verified 22 minutes ago

This gang of serial killers did unthinkable crimes. It's hard to believe that their story is not a work of fiction. But it's not... Download FREE with Kindle Unlimited Most serial killers work alone. Killing is usually a private crime, something that mass murderers are keen to keep hidden. But this is not always the case. During the 1990s, a small town in Australia witnessed first-hand how devastating, horrendous, and effective a gang of serial killers could be. Snowtown, South Australia, was a sleepy little community. After John Bunting convinced his accomplices to embark on a killing spree, however, it would never be the same. This is the story of the Snowtown Murders. It takes a particular kind of psychopath to not only carry out torture and murder but also to bring in others on the act. In this book, we will learn how one man was able to convince regular men that what he was doing was not only right, but also that they should join in. Together, the gang of four men became responsible for what was later known as the "bodies in the barrels" murders. How could seemingly ordinary folk be so easily convinced to commit horrific crimes? Brutal murder, the carving up of bodies, and the moving of corpses to stay one step ahead of the police. The series of homicides was one of the worst in Australian history. Usually, serial killers either operate in major cities or drift between smaller towns. But as we shall see, the men in this story moved and murdered in the same small community for an extended period of time. In a way, they believed they were helping. In reality, they were leaving a lasting impact that the community of Snowtown would remember forever. To this day, the town still has not recovered. But what could have left such a lasting legacy? How horrible were the murders? How convincing a man was John Bunting? This book aims to answer all of your questions.

Famous Landmarks of Ancient Rome: The History of the Colosseum, the Forum, and the Appian Way by Charles River Editors 3.9 Stars (15 Reviews)    Price verified 40 minutes ago

*Includes pictures *Includes accounts of the landmarks written by ancient Romans *Includes bibliographies for further reading *Includes a table of contents The Roman Empire is the most famous in history, and the center of the far-reaching empire's activities was located in the Forum, a low area between the Capitoline and Palatine hills in Rome. The topography held a great deal of significance for Romans, and consequently so many layers of myth were laid on top of the landscape and buildings that it is difficult to separate legend from actual historical fact. As a low-lying area near the Tiber river, the Forum was subject to much flooding, and even into the 20th century, the Forum area could flood upwards of over 40 feet above sea level. This would factor significantly in the imagination of Romans, who later ascribed the flooding with saving the city's founders, Romulus and Remus, from execution. However, in the 8th and 7th centuries B.C., this did not make for a good area for construction. Previous generations of excavators have concluded that in the beginning, there were waddle and daub huts in the Forum, as indicated by remains of organic food material, fragments of daub, and evidence of post holes dug in the ground for these structures. However, a recent environmental study has shown that such structures could not survive the flooding that was endemic to the Forum, suggesting that it took a few hundred years (during the period of the Roman kings) for the Romans to move up to 20,000 square meters of earth in order to reclaim land in the Forum, and a gravel pavement was placed on top of the landfill. If true, this project shows a high degree of organization and central planning. When the Colosseum was built in the late 1st century A.D., the Romans, a people known for their architectural acumen, managed to amaze themselves. Martial, a Roman poet writing during the inauguration of the Colosseum, clearly believed the Colosseum was so grand a monument that it was ...

Exploring the West: The History and Legacy of the Explorers Who Led the Way for America’s Westward Expansion by Charles River Editors 4.0 Stars (7 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

The Louisiana Purchase encompassed all or part of 15 current U.S. states and two Canadian provinces, including Arkansas, Missouri, Iowa, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, parts of Minnesota that were west of the Mississippi River, most of North Dakota, nearly all of South Dakota, northeastern New Mexico, Northern Texas, the portions of Montana, Wyoming, and Colorado east of the Continental Divide, and Louisiana west of the Mississippi River, including the city of New Orleans (parts of this area were still claimed by Spain at the time of the Purchase.) In addition, the Louisiana Purchase contained small portions of land that would eventually become part of the Canadian provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan. The purchase, which doubled the size of the young nation, comprises around 23% of current American territory. The purchase allowed Jefferson to plan something he had talked about since taking office: an expedition deep into the unmapped and largely unknown continent with the final destination being the Pacific Ocean. This could prove the most significant of the goals that Jefferson - a person who thought of himself as a scientifically-minded thinker - wanted to accomplish as president. Though he knew he had bought a huge amount of land, Jefferson wasn't entirely sure of what he had bought, so he asked a team led by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark to traverse the continent until they reached the Pacific, studying everything from the ecology to geography along the way to get an understanding of the country's new region. Lewis and Clark would find far more than they anticipated. The 33 men who made the trip came into contact with about two dozen Native American tribes, many of whom helped the men survive the journey, and along the way they met and were assisted by the famous Sacagawea, who would become one of the expedition's most famous participants. Though they suffered deaths on their way west, the group ultimately reached the Pacific coast and got back to St. ...

American Legends: The Life of Natalie Wood by Charles River Editors 3.7 Stars (70 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

*Includes pictures. *Includes Wood's quotes about her own life and career. *Includes a bibliography for further reading. *Includes a table of contents. "Stardom is only a byproduct of acting. I don't think being a movie star is a good enough reason for existing." - Natalie Wood A lot of ink has been spilled covering the lives of history's most influential figures, but how much of the forest is lost for the trees? In Charles River Editors' American Legends series, readers can get caught up to speed on the lives of America's most important men and women in the time it takes to finish a commute, while learning interesting facts long forgotten or never known. Few actresses have ever gotten off to the kind of career start that Natalie Wood did during the 1950s. After appearing in film and on TV as a child, Wood broke out by appearing in the classic Rebel Without a Cause alongside James Dean in 1955, despite the fact she was still just 15 years old. She earned an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress in that role, one of three Academy Award nominations she would rack up before the age of 25. That included starring in Splendor in the Grass (1961), West Side Story (1961), and Gypsy (1962), and altogether, she was in over 50 films, . Given that she was a successful actress for several decades, it's no surprise that Wood generated a lot of press during her career, and her personal life was tabloid fodder in particular. When she married star actor Robert Wagner, they had one of Hollywood's most famous and most successful marriages. But Wood was also notorious for relying on psychoanalysts, to the extent that she would become heavily reliant on constantly having access to one. People were also caught by surprise when Wood retired after the birth of her daughter in 1970, and unfortunately, that has contributed to the fact that she is best remembered today for her mysterious drowning in 1981. Wood was on a boat with Robert Wagner and Christopher Walken when she ...

John Mosby and William Quantrill: The Lives and Legacies of the Confederacy’s Most Notorious Partisans by Charles River Editors 3.8 Stars (23 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

*Includes pictures. *Includes accounts of battles by the two partisan leaders and other important soldiers. *Includes footnotes and a bibliography for further reading. *Includes a table of contents. The Civil War is best remembered for the big battles and the legendary generals who fought on both sides, like Robert E. Lee facing off against Ulysses S. Grant in 1864. In kind, the Eastern theater has always drawn more interest and attention than the West. However, while massive armies marched around the country fighting each other, there were other small guerrilla groups that engaged in irregular warfare on the margins, and perhaps the most famous of them was Colonel John Mosby and William Quantrill. Mosby, the "Gray Ghost" of the Confederate lore that celebrates the Lost Cause, has an image that has proven nearly impossible to corrupt or change, and time has done little good against it. Unlike the vanished 19th century code of honor that he represented, Mosby has retained the image and all its connotations; evident in the pictures taken of him in his Confederate uniform and historical portrayals of him, whether they were written just after the Civil War or much later. But that image, which he helped fashioned, was mostly an invention. While the South would come to idolize "Southern gentlemen" as epitomized by Robert E. Lee, Mosby operated under a far different nature. Though he enlisted with the Confederate army in Virginia after Fort Sumter, he ultimately left the infantry to join J.E.B. Stuart's cavalry, and he later became infamous as an irregular scout leading a group of rangers around Virginia. Of course, the successful feats of daring that Mosby would accomplish during the war, which included capturing a Union general and riding around behind enemy lines to raid and destroy supplies, were supported by the people of Virginia, thus legitimizing his unconventional move to leave army life. Mosby not only earned the nickname "Gray Ghost" by being elusive, he ...

Until the lion learns to tell its story, the tale of the hunt will always glorify the hunter," - African Proverb. Imagine a small village somewhere in the middle of the African jungle, where hunters and gatherers live their best life: Waking up at sunrise; tilling the land till noon; lunch under a tree followed by hunting expeditions in the afternoon; sumptuous meals for dinner and 10 good hours of good sleep every day for a lifetime! Everyone knows each other. Everyone cares for each other. Everyone trusts each other. Until one day a white man shows up. Henry Morton Stanley meets Senior Chief Waiyaki wa Hinga for a chit chat. He takes a pen and doodles on a handwritten piece of paper. Waiyaki is intrigued: What magic is this! "It's not about the stick, it's about the mind... You too can do it! Here draw your own mark... " And just like that my people lost their land their freedom, their community, their voice, and ultimately, their identity. I believe I am on a mission to regain pride in my identity as an #UprightAfrican, and restore the lost familial bonds between the people of African descent. "Coming to Black," is as much a personal memoir as it is a historical narrative, striving to balance between the perilous danger of a single story and the tragedy of an erased memory. It is the story of my awakening as a black man in a colored world.

Far more than a memoir, Killing Justice is a beacon of hope, resonating with the universal message that our identity transcends the sum of our mistakes.

Was she ready to explore the heart of a warrior? Welcome to book 1 in the exciting new series Echoes in Time from New York Times Best Selling author Paula Quinn. After receiving a dragon brooch from a distant great aunt, twenty-first century historian Kestrel Lancaster finds herself in fifteenth century England. Smack in the middle of a war. Like... in the middle of a blood and guts spewing, heads flying around her war. With six armored men riding toward her, bloody swords raised high in the air, horrified looks on their faces, there isn't time to think. Only to scream. But like a dream, a dark knight rides into the fray and saves her from them all. When she realizes where and when she is, she doesn't know whether to thank him for keeping her alive or curse him for it. Sir Nicholas de Marre has seen many things in his years as military commander for the House of York, but he has never seen a woman appear right before his eyes -- and in the middle of the battlefield. Without thinking, he kills the Lancaster bastards closing in on her. Thankfully for her he is able to fight with her deafening screams behind him. He saves her from certain death, not knowing if she is mad, or he is, and carries her to safety. That's his first mistake. The second is showing her mercy when he finds out she's a Lancaster. But this odd woman who takes pictures with imaginary phones and teaches Cook to make cupcakes is easy to fall for, and before long, the heart of York's champion is captured by a Lancaster. England's throne is about to change. The House of Tudor will reign, and the War of the Roses will finally be won with the intimacy of a kiss, the tenderness in a touch, and love that will echo through time.

The Fall of America: Fatal Encounters (Book 2) by W.R. Benton 4.4 Stars (266 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

What if it all came crashing down? It started with the "Biggest" stock market crash in history. Banks shut down under the weight of their bogus investments, and the financial sector failed. People looked to the government to make it all better. They couldn't! Hyper-inflation, mass unemployment and infrastructure started to breakdown. The food trucks didn't show up at the stores and the shelves went empty. Things turned ugly fast when there was no power for long parts of the day... then forever. Things started falling apart quicker after that. Whole regions declared a "State of Emergency" in an effort to maintain order and civility, but it wasn't always enough. Starvation, looting and murder became the norm. Then, American civilization collapsed completely. The Fall of America: Book 2 continues John's story of survival and resistance after society breaks down. Russian invaders continue to try and pacify the areas of the South under their control. The American resistance groups divide their forces into small cells to better operate effectively behind enemy lines. But as their efforts begin to gain ground the Russians respond with harsh reprisals; mass executions become the norm and prison camps soon spring up in remote small towns. "Fear brings compliance," is their motto. The battle for control of Mississippi gets hot, and a violent world gets even more ugly. Can the U.S. partisans survive the overwhelming Russian Army and its thermal detection technology/helicopter gunships/and scorched earth tactics?

Thou Shall Decree a thing (Volume 1): Prayers to enforce your Protection by Christian Benjamin 4.7 Stars (148 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

AS YOU MAKE DECREES, HEAVEN ENFORCES THEM ON YOUR BEHALF "Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee,... Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee... " Job 22:27-28 Life is a contest like someone said, it is either you win or you are won! The daily occurrences we face seem to release fear and tension all around us as such, if we must live victorious lives, we must fight according to the rules. One fundamental rule of life is that everything is controlled by the word of mouth. According to Neurologists, the human speech organ possesses the greatest number of neurons in the body and dominates all other neurons in the human body. Further into their research, the speech nerve has been found to rule over other nerves in the body. This finding goes a long way to agree with the scripture that states thus: "Death and life are in the power of the tongue... " Prov. 18:21 God exemplified this when in creation he used the word of mouth to enforce his acts: "And God said, Let there be light: and there was light" Gen. 1:3 "And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so" Gen. 1:9 The above two scriptural verses and many others confirm the enormous power in spoken words. In the wake of all the evil news that we hear every day, rather than live in fear, this book comes to you as a voice of encouragement, calling you to stand your ground and enforce your protection as already put in place by the almighty. He says: "There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling" Psalm 91:10 "For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone" Psalm 91:11-12 To further reveal the power in the tongue, Jesus speaking says: "... Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the ...

Thick Red Line: Why Ending Redlining Can Fight Generational Poverty and Strengthen American Communities by Tory Haggerty (Tuscan Club Publishing) 5.0 Stars (1 Review)    Price verified 45 minutes ago

Best-selling author and fair lending expert, Tory Haggerty takes a deep dive into the history of redlining and racial housing segregation in the United States. He outlines and explains what most redlining cases have in common and gives financial institutions practical solutions on how to address these problems. Tory also breaks down several recent case studies, addresses appraisal bias, and so much more. "I was shocked by how much I learned, but more than that, his approach is non-threatening and the solutions are pragmatic. I have learned that the industry trusts him and relies on his education and solutions. Tory is passionate about fairness, but also about banking and the critical role it plays in our lives. His efforts bring value." -- MICHAEL L. STEVENS, President & CEO, Graduate School of Banking at Colorado "Discrimination in banking lending can have an effect on generations of Americans. Working to call attention to this and helping to end discrimination is an admirable cause. This is a cause that Tory Haggerty has been addressing for a long time. His new book, "The Thick Red Line" is another effort to push for fair lending practices. These efforts are to be applauded." -- GEOFF BACINO, Former National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) Board member, Former Federal Housing Finance Board member "Haggerty provides a passionate call to action and argues compellingly that through stronger anti-discrimination policies, improved financial education, and a collective commitment to expanding access to credit, we can finally start to unwind the harms caused by redlining. This is a must-read for anyone in the banking industry." -- MARK TREICHEL, Former Executive Director, National Credit Union Administration "Tory Haggerty is a true champion for helping community banks navigate the regulatory and compliance landscape in a way that serves the best interest of the public and community banks. Tory's passion for doing the right thing in the right way is ...

Bad luck and trouble are their business. And business is booming... When armed robbers deprive Eric Stanton of his boss' ten grand, he knows he is in big trouble. If he can't find the money before the end of the day, his vicious loan shark boss will demand he repay the debt - or take his kneecaps instead. Neither option appeals to him. Once Eric realises that the robbery is part of an elaborate setup and he's the fall guy, he does the one thing he can think of to even up the score and brings in his brother, Derek. What his man-mountain brother lacks in brains, he makes up for in muscle and brutality; just the right kind of partner for a trip around the seedier parts of Teesside. Who stole the money, and why? And can they get the money back before the deadline runs out? One thing's for sure, the Stanton brothers won't go down without a fight. Set within the rough, post-industrial landscape of Teesside, this fast-paced British crime thriller will keep you gripped until the brutal, action-packed finale. Bad Luck and Trouble is the explosive start of a bone-crunching series of crime thrillers featuring the wisecracking, foul-mouthed Stanton brothers.

The Experience of Alien Royal Servants in Thirteenth-Century England by Michael Ray 5.0 Stars (3 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

At the beginning of the thirteenth century, King John lost his Norman and Angevin lands to the King of France. The Anglo-Norman nobility had to choose which King to support and accept the loss of their lands under the rule of the King they had disowned. However, John continued to rely on his trusted Normans as soldiers and officials, many of whom were instrumental in preventing the son of the King of France from seizing the throne, first from John, and after his death in 1216 from his son Henry III. Despite their service to the crown, many of these aliens were disenfranchised during Henry's minority as the English baronage and clergy whipped up hostility against them. Henry later encouraged the arrival of two further groups of aliens into England, the Savoyards and Poitevins, who were relatives of his mother and wife. He lavished patronage on them as a way to consolidate his power both at home and abroad. In 1263 Simon de Montfort revived hostility against aliens in his war against the King. This whole period marks a pronounced awareness of the Englishness of those born in England. Henry's successors continued to employ and foster the careers of aliens but the Montfortian wars taught them to tread carefully. The chapters in this book cover the reigns of John, Henry III and the first three Edwards. They show how some families accumulated considerable rewards. Some weathered prejudice and became fully assimilated. Some did not and never established firm roots in England. What stands out is that all of the aliens studied repaid the Kings with loyalty and efficiency.

Holly Holmes Cozy Culinary Mystery Series: Books 1-4 Collection (Holly Holmes Cozy Culinary Mystery Sets Book 1) by K.E. O'Connor 4.6 Stars (473 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

With its stunning turrets and beautiful rose gardens, I always thought Audley Castle was perfect, set in the idyllic English village of Audley St. Mary. It's a place I love to call home. But behind the trimmed hedgerows, stately gardens, and birdsong, a killer is waiting... If you enjoy beautiful English settings, twisty murder mysteries that leave you guessing until the big reveal, and adorable dogs, this series is for you. Book 1 - Cream Caramel & Murder After being forced to close my charming café in this quaint little village, I'm thrilled to get a job in the Audley Castle kitchens, making divine treats for visitors and serving the Audley family who live in the castle. The joy fades when I take my beloved dog for his daily walk, and he leads us to the body of a family friend, Kendal Jakes. Seemingly caught in the act of tampering with evidence by the castle's security team, I become the number one murder suspect in their investigation. It'll take more than my skills with a piping bag to solve this crisis. Book 2 - Chocolate Swirls & Murder When I get involved in volunteering at the prestigious annual food fair in the castle grounds, I'm shocked to learn about the death of a visiting pie seller. And it was no accident. When the castle's head of security tells me to keep my nose out as I ask a few questions, I know I should listen, but I can never resist a puzzle. Rather than focusing on perfecting my entry for the Audley Castle baking contest, I ask how a pie slicer got stuck in a man's back in a crowded food fair! As I investigate the victim's life (and death) I learn about his shady business dealings. Could that be the reason he was killed? Or does the presence of an ex-girlfriend have something to do with it? Book 3 - Vanilla Whip & Murder When the loveably eccentric Lady Philippa predicts that Blaine Masters, a guest of the Audley family, is about to die, I need to listen. It's eerie how she seems to see the future. I'm determined to warn Blaine, ...

Busy: A Manifesto for Distracted Times by Carl Phillips 4.6 Stars (3 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

Look up for a moment, take in what is happening around you. What do you see? A sea of calm, happy faces perhaps. All focused on helping each other make the world a better place, in some small but meaningful way. Trying their best to leave positive footprints on the earth. Working hard but balancing that with ample time to rest. Making time for those that matter most. Being present and grateful for this moment. Totally in tune with life. Or is the picture a little different? Is everyone rushing around? Hustling and bustling. Running from commitment to commitment. Complaining they 'don't have time'. Not at all present, always thinking ahead, to whatever they are rushing to next. I'm guessing the picture you see is closer to example two. Everyone seems so busy. Busy on the phone. Busy juggling and multi-tasking. Busy trying to keep up. Busy trying not to drown under the mountain that is the latest 'urgent'. Mostly it seems, busy being busy. How many of us find ourselves fighting this daily battle with busyness in our lives? Feeling like all our time is accounted for, before we really get started with our day. Busyness, it seems, has reached epidemic proportions. We're busy, but what is getting done? So where is all this collective busyness getting us? Are we making the world a better place? Is all this busy meaning we get to spend quality time with our friends and loved ones? Is being busy meaning we get to make time for our hobbies and passion projects? Is busy meaning we get more quality work done? Quality, not just sheer quantity. Is busy leading us to less stress? Is it meaning we live healthy, balanced lives, full of adventures and positive challenges? If the answer is yes, great -- let's celebrate and keep on with all this busyness. Let's keep engaging with it. Let's keep chasing it. If the answer is no, perhaps we need to step back and ask a bigger question: Why are we spending time invested in busy, ...
