This is a story of fantasy and hard cold facts beginning
with a pizza party given by the “Big Fat Cat” prima
donna of the microbe family.
The party was given in honor of Albus, the Colonel’s
offspring. Guests were the Streptococci, Pnemococci,
Gonococci, Meningococci, Diphtheria, E. Coli, Typhoid,
Dysentery, Tetanus and Botulinum. TB used a cellphone to
call in sick, because a human he had infected with TB
returned the favor as a carrier and infected TB with
Tuberculosis.
Music suddenly split the air with Beethoven’s 3rd Sonato
in Asia Minor. The Dayton Place Hot Tomato Philharmonic
Orchestra revved it up while the microbes did the ‘Hokey
Pokey’ and the intricate ‘Two Step’.
The young bacteria went to school to learn about
epidemics.
The book ends with two fine collections of microscopes
and bacteria.
If you are a high school or college student and are
interested in or are studying in the area of science
you should definitely read this book. You could use it
for help in writing reports and to become informed about
epidemics which attack everyone.
Public libraries could use this as a student reference.
Precautionary steps to prevent disease are mentioned as
important advice to every reader. These steps
recommended by the medical profession may save the
reader’s life. The warning steps should be practiced at
home and the constant sterilization of eating utensils
are of utmost importance, plus all other medical advice
published.
In this book you will find full chapters of information
on Smallpox, Polio, Bubonic Plague, Legionnaire’s
Disease, Cholera, Ebola, Marburg and AIDS.

This book describes some of our popular scientific
theories and their related problems. It also explains
additional aspects of current science issues so that
you, the reader, can decide what to believe. Scientific
theories and answers given by the news media to science
related questions are usually reported as accepted
facts, but what is reported is not always accurate. In
addition, most news services provide only the
politically correct views on most subjects (such as
global warming) and ignore other information about these
subjects.
The Introduction is an example of a house that is either
new or is 150 years old-perhaps you can determine its
age. This is followed by a description of the Big Bang
theory and its problems, the ages of the Sun, Earth, and
Moon, and another example of an object whose age is
difficult to define. Other subjects covered are global
warming, our energy problems, the ages of the dinosaurs,
evolution, intelligent design, the accuracy of the
Bible, and simple descriptions of some related natural
laws.

A History of the Fur Trade in South Dakota and the
Upper Missouri
In this fascinating study, Professor Aaron Woodard sheds
new light on an old subject - the fur trade in the Upper
Missouri. Concentrating particularly on his own state of
South Dakota, Woodard weaves a tale of international
intrigue, vicious Indian fights and heroic mountain men.
Woodard uses government documents and primary evidence
to illustrate the grave danger confronting the American
fur trading fraternity during the War of 1812. Woodard
notes that but for the resolute actions of individual
mountain men, the Upper Missouri could well have become
another English colony, while the United States as we
know it today would never have been created.
Woodard also examines the key role played by Native
Americans as the fur trade became big business. Indians
were not simply tricked into trading with whites -
Woodard notes that a complex relationship developed
between traders and their Indian partners, often
involving marriages and family interaction.
The book also profiles individual traders and Mountain
Men such as Pierre Chouteau, Manuel Lisa and the
legendary Jedediah Smith - all of whom had hair raising
adventures in the Upper Missouri. Readers will learn of
Smith’s narrow escape from a marauding Grizzly Bear, and
of early battles between trappers and Indian tribes.
Any reader interested in early American frontier history
or the fur trade and Mountain Men will find this an
excellent and exciting reading adventure as well as a
reliable and useful reference tool. The book is also
generously illustrated with maps, western art and
drawings by Frederick Remington and George Catlin.

The ultimate guide to bartending. While anyone can learn
the recipe for a cocktail and create a drink, that
doesn’t make them a bartender. Bartending is truly an
art form that encapsulates the mechanics of mixing a
drink, personality, appearance, understanding of
alcohols and how they relate to each other, customer
service and patience. This book will teach you about all
of those things.

Some have called him a slave, minister, a family man,
murderer, and a revolutionary. Nat Turner is the
controversial figure who rose from the ashes of
obscurity to leaving and indelible impression of
religious rigor and bloodshed on the very fabric of
America; and quite possibly the world. Here is the story
of a slave who was one of body but not of the mind and
the spirit. Nat Turner, a slave himself, who would lead
(60) other slaves to commit the unthinkable…the murder
of (55) white women and children during the slave
revolt at Southampton, Virginia in 1831. Even after his
eventual capture and subsequent execution, Nat Turner
stood by his actions and convictions because he believed
that he was an instrument of God, and if it required the
killing of white women and children to bring America
into the light that its own hands were purged in the
blood of the African slave; so be it!
In this book I plan to chronicle who the real Nat Turner
was…a slave, minister, and finally, an African American
hero. I will utilize scholarly books from noted authors
who proved that many of us have been mis-educated about
Nat Turner.
Patrick Henry who history scholars call one of the
Founding Fathers once said “Give me liberty or give me
death”. Nat Turner attempted to take liberty by force
for the freedom of all African American slaves, and in
the end welcomed death with open arms.
