Analyzes the modern myth of the cowboy as it appears in movies, advertising, the rodeo, and fiction, and gauges its effect on American thought
Deze auteur begon in zijn pensioen met het schrijven van detectivefictie om zijn geest actief te houden. Door zijn liefde voor geschiedenis te combineren met het mysteriengenre, heeft hij twee series moordmysteries gecreëerd die zich afspelen in Norfolk tussen 1760 en 1800. Dit tijdperk in Groot-Brittannië werd gekenmerkt door constante oorlogen en revoluties. De ene serie volgt de heer Foxe, een boekhandelaar en stadsfunctionaris, terwijl hij zaken in Norwich oplost. De andere serie introduceert Dr. Adam Bascom, een jonge arts wiens nieuwsgierigheid hem voortdurend in intriges verwikkelt tijdens de Napoleontische oorlogen aan de kust van North Norfolk.

This is a book about a child that has come through the life of physical and mental abuse and has learned through a lot of soul searching, that life doesn't have to be that way.

I am hoping my story will reach out to people and open there eyes to what is going on around them and their precious children.
