Skinheads were dead, man. Phased out. Home had never appealed. All his life he had dreamed about a plush flat somewhere in the West End of London. So now he would make the leap from poverty street into the affluent society. In one gigantic jump. Fresh out of stir after kicking a police sergeant's head in, former skinhead Joe Hawkins is heading for the big time - a job in a firm of stockbrokers, a swanky flat and (hopefully) plenty of money. A whole new style is called for - so Joe becomes a Suedehead. The hair is a few millimetres longer, the uniform a velvet-collared crombie coat, bowler hat and neatly-furled umbrella - with razor sharp tip. For while Joe might be playing the establishment pet, he remains the unrepentently vicious, cunning hooligan from Skinhead, intent on pulling women, stealing and putting the boot in. It's not long before he finds some other Suedes willing to commit mayhem under cover of respectability... but can Joe and respectability ever really get along? Suedehead is the second of Richard Allen's era-defining cult novels featuring anti-hero Joe Hawkins. First published in 1971, this new edition features an introduction by Andrew Stevens. "e;I did happen to read the book when it came out and I was quite interested in the whole Richard Allen cult... suedeheads and skinheads and smoothies were very much part of daily life. There was a tremendous air of intensity... something interesting grabbed me about the whole thing."e; Morrissey "e;(Richard Allen's) work shouldn't require a theoretical summing up, once enough of those to whom it appeals understand its attraction we will have superceded this society."e; Stewart Home

Witness the drama of World War I, which shaped the modern Middle East.Imagine what happens when you double the adage that "one man can change the course of history" by four.Imperial powers partitioned the Middle East into the nations we know today during and after World War I, and the region became the scene of several ongoing battles. In the midst of this chaotic period, the activities of four men - T. E. Lawrence, Curt Prüfer, Aaron Aaronsohn and William Yale, each on separate sides of the war, each with his own ambitions and sympathies - impacted the history of the region and the world.The story of these four men and their endeavors in the Middle East during World War I are told in the following chapters. These stories read like a true John LeCarré thriller, complete with spies, lies, and evil intents. It also tells the tale of how the Middle East came to be one of the most politically unstable regions in the world.This Book will provide information onWhy Lawrence's conquest of Aqaba turned out to be a bittersweet success; how Prüfer's ties in the Ottoman Empire influenced the Turks; and why the Sykes-Picot Agreement's effects are still being felt today.

Get the BEST mediterranean cookbook kindle version FREE when you buy the paperback "Diet" is a four-letter word. So many diets focus on deprivation, bland foods, and a laundry list of "don'ts". Don't eat fat, don't eat carbs, don't eat anything tasty. Mediterranean Diet for Beginners is for people who are tired of hearing "don't" and ready to enjoy flavorful, satisfying meals while increasing their health and shedding some pounds in the process. The Introduction Mediterranean Diet for Beginners starts off by describing the history of the Mediterranean diet. It was not "created," but rather evolved over hundreds of years in an area of the world known for wonderful food and a vibrant culture. Italian, Greek, North African and Middle Eastern cuisine all meet and blend for a diet full of variety. Next, we learn the health benefits of the Mediterranean diet. It is when American biologist Ancel Keys and his wife, chemist Margaret Keys, noticed that communities in the Mediterranean basin enjoyed better overall health, with lower instances of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, when compared to their American counterparts, that the Mediterranean diet first came to the public's eye. Several studies conducted on the Mediterranean diet have shown its ability to help people lose weight, lower their blood pressure, lower their blood sugar, reduce their risk of diabetes, take points off their cholesterol score, limit their risk of stroke, and more. The Diet Next, the book describes the diet in general. This includes the foods that make up the diet, including what to eat daily (whole grains, extra-virgin olive oil, fresh fruit and vegetables), what to eat a few times a week (fish and poultry, eggs, dairy, and shellfish), what to eat rarely (red meat, sweets), and what to avoid (processed flours and sugars, chemically-enhanced foods). Delicious and High Quality Recipes In the following chapters, we find healthy and tasty recipes. The recipes are divided into five chapters: breakfast, lunch, dinner, soups and stews (including some slow cooker recipes), and side dishes. These recipes, in addition to being delicious and filling, are highly adaptable to any tastes and styles of cooking. They can also be adapted into gluten-free, kosher and vegan meals with a few changes to their ingredients, making the Mediterranean diet suitable for just about everyone. Complete 7-day Step-by-Step Meal Plan Next, we find an example of a seven-day meal plan, detailing breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a snack. Both quick-and-easy and slightly more labor intensive meals are included. Everyone has different schedules and activities, however, so this section is highly adaptable. Conclusion and some more Finally, in the last chapter, we see some hints and tips for following the Mediterranean diet every day. Tips on shopping for groceries, eating out, and following the diet in general are included. "Mediterranean Diet for Beginners" is written for anyone who wants to lose weight and increase their overall health, but are wary of dieting. It is perfect for anyone who is looking for a diet where they do not need to feel deprived, but can enjoy incredible food and feel good about what they eat.

A GREAT part of this work having been written many years after events actually took place; and as my memory could not exactly point out the exact time of many occurrences; they are, however, (as many as I can recollect) pointed out; some without day or date, which, I presume, will be of no material consequence, so that they are confined to the truth. Could I but recollect the half of my trials and sufferings in this life, with the many meetings I have held, and the various occurrences that have taken place in my travelling to and fro, preaching the Gospel of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ to Adam's lost race, they would swell this little book far beyond my inclination, and weary perhaps those into whose hands it may chance to come; and as I have been earnestly solicited by many of my friends to leave a small detail of my life and proceedings, I have thought proper, for the satisfaction of those who (after I am dead and in the grave) may feel an inclination to learn the commencement of my life, to leave behind me this short account for their perusal.

After escaping the clutches of his abusive ex-wife, John finds himself living a rather dreary and reclusive life in Eureka, California. By choice, he works at a menial job where he gets paid very little, and barely makes ends meet. One day he comes home after quitting his job during an altercation with his boss to find a strange note taped to his door, instructing him to check his email. Letting his curiosity get the best of him, he checks to find an email waiting for him from the international conglomerate known simply as The Company. The email offers him a chance to secure employment with one of the most employee friendly companies on earth so without delay, he replies to the email and provides The Company with all of his personal information. Within minutes, he is contacted by phone and an interview is setup. After securing employment, John coincidently runs into an emotionally odd, yet adorably quirky woman named Anna who is also employed by The Company and a friendship is quickly formed. As the days pass, John is forced to look inside himself and reexamine his life as he and Anna's relationship begins to morph into something much more than he expected. Weary of getting close to anyone, John struggles with his past. He ultimately decides to try to open himself up to new things, but little does he know his new companion is hiding something from him that will rock the foundation of their friendship and send him into an emotional tailspin. He also unexpectedly grows closer to the beautiful and intelligent Human Resources Manager Emily, his first contact within the company who appears to have only his best interests at heart. As he begins to trust this bold and confident woman with more, he finds that she too may not be exactly who she seems. Soon, John finds himself in a minefield of mystery and deceit and over time, he finds he must either deal with the gatekeepers of secrecy or devolve into lunacy as his past continues to haunt his thoughts and his life.

Fantastic Income Investment Praise for Master Limited Partnerships by Richard Stooker: "This book provides a rational alternative to bonds, CDs and money market funds." "There is a lot of information on why Master Limited Partnerships are a great income investment." "Comprehensive, correct and timely." In a low yield world where government bonds pay next to no interest, S&P 500 stocks pay little more than that in dividends, the Canadian government is on the threshold of taxing income trusts, and even real estate investment trusts are suffering cash flow problems, one type of security still stands as a beacon of hope to income investors. Master Limited Partnerships or MLPs 9% yields . . . that increase 9% annually . . . quarterly distributions almost guaranteed . . . capital gains that leave the S&P 500 in the dust . . . tax protection . . . business profits protected by federal government regulation . . . profit from the energy sector without the volatility of market prices because MLPs are paid by volume not final price. Until now, the information available to investors has been scanty. There've been only chapters in books. One prominent financial advice company recently launched a newsletter devoted to them, but the price tag is $399 annually. The Internet contains summary but incomplete articles and snatches of advice (some good, some inaccurate). Finally, investors can learn all about these terrific investments -- their rewards and risks; the paperwork hassles and how to get around them; and how to invest in them using both taxable and tax-deferred accounts. In one convenient volume for one low price. This book is the first and only devoted solely to Master Limited Partnerships. You'll discover: The incredible benefits of Master Limited Partnerships Why they're still incredibly cheap How their legal rules and business structure combine to send you lots of cash Why they'll continue to generate lots of cash for the foreseeable future Information on every company Information on every MLP index Information on every MLP closed-end fund What MLP i-units are and how they can skyrocket your IRA portfolio How to understand and complete MLP tax forms Everything you need to know to get started to enhance your current income or save for your financially secure future. I cover a lot of material that applies to all energy-related MLPs, but my strong recommendation is you confine your investment dollars to those in what are called "midstream" MLPs. I'll start off with a chapter that explains the many benefits of investing in midstream Master Limited Partnerships. Followed by a chapter on the "catches" -- the aspects that individual investors sometimes stumble over. Followed by information on the business risks of MLPs. Then information on their history, structure and businesses both from the financial side and the petroleum industry side. This includes why businesses convert their assets to MLPs. And why such high yielding investments are still available in today's otherwise low-yield financial marketplace. Then we'll cover everybody's favorite topic -- taxes. The tax and tax filing consequences of owning MLP units. I'll also cover the various tax forms and how to complete them. Then ways of investing in MLPs that, in terms of tax paperwork and filing, are the same as investing in stocks. So you can add MLPs to your tax-deferred accounts or simply avoid the extra paperwork created by direct ownership of MLP units. There're chapters on MLP i-units, on each MLP-related closed-end fund and MLP Exchange Traded Notes. Then there're chapters on all MLP indexes. 33,000 words. So download Master Limited Partnershi

Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, Richard Allen could have just been another statistic. But faith in Yahweh (God), coupled with hope and perseverance has allowed him to thrive amid arduous circumstances.In a cautionary retelling of his personal experiences penned from a prison bunk, Allen shares insight into his path through life with the hope of helping the urban, at-risk population to both navigate (and stay on) the path to success by identifying the potential pitfalls that may hinder progress. While sharing lessons learned and wisdom intended to guide others to adequately prepare for the future, Allen encourages those at risk to be proactive while facing challenges, to find the hidden blessings, transform their mindset, and pay attention to the little details and subtle compromises that are not conducive to forward progression in life.Rich in Purpose, Poor in Pride is an inspirational handbook filled with personal stories and practical wisdom shared to guide and keep those at risk on the narrow path to success.

Down below, like some gigantic monster from Earth's dark past, a moving van waited in the mist. Judging the distance as best he could, Joe leaped into space . . .Get Joe Hawkins!

The driving force of this book is the author's lifelong fascination with human nature. Forty years in the law brought him into contact with a broader cross-section of society than most people would normally experience, or even wish to, and it is their strengths and weaknesses, values and doubts that shaped these poems. The majority of these poems were written well into the author's retirement. As we know, the ageing process involves a shift in values, priorities and challenges. He faces these head on: dementia, faith, physical decline, even falling in love. Nothing is spared. A word of caution. Many of the poems are simple and straightforward. And why not? Poetry is for everyone. Some appear simple and straightforward but have a twist or secondary current below the surface. Look out for them. In others the author sets out his views and throws down a gauntlet. In doing so he commits the cardinal sin of the modern age: he asks us to think.

The Western District of Victoria. Even the name conjures up establishment families, history, and grandeur. This area, extending from the Grampians region in the south-west of the state to Geelong in the east, and stretching as far north as Ararat, has some of the most productive land in Australia and some of its most renowned homesteads and gardens. In this revised edition of Richard Allen and Kimbal Baker's fascinating and beautiful book, we are taken into the private world of twenty of these most notable properties. Through their early histories we follow their fortunes and see the splendour of these great homes. It is a tribute to the past, when fortunes built elaborate mansions and grand gardens, and to the present owners who have so lovingly preserved their properties' architectural heritage. This revised edition brings the history of the estates up to date, including five new chapters and new photography scattered throughout.
