The summer of 1846 peaceful life in the Rio Grande Valley is disturbed by the arrival of the U.S. Army. Troops under General Zachary Taylor are marching toward the Mexican town of Matamoros, on the south shore of the Rio Grande. In Matamoros, General Mariano Arista is getting ready to face Taylor's army. The Mexican - American war is about to start.In a tale of rivalry, intrigue and passion, some strive for supremacy, some for honor, and some for their most basic human dignity. Is it that one man shall shape the destiny of his people? Or is it that his fable shall resonate through time, to touch their future kin, in the story of Juan Nepomuceno Cortina Goseascochea, the Saga of Cheno Cortinas.

"We are made of starstuff." This sentiment is echoed throughout each poem contained in Riley T. Evan's newest work, The Never Ending Cosmic Show. Whether he is capturing the innocent beauty of a lover, lamenting the damage man has inflicted on the Earth, or retelling the tale of the creation of our world, the undertones of each poem reflect the fact that everything here the Earth-humans, animals, and plants alike-all have their origins in the same elements that created the stars. The Never Ending Cosmic Show reflects upon our cosmic origins, documenting the beauty and the sadness of the many cycles of the universe-the creation and destruction of stars, the passing of seasons, and the never-ending circle of life perpetuated through man's birth and death. Ultimately, Evans reminds us that even the simplest creature here on Earth is a luminous reflection of the Cosmos. Riley T. Evans, a retired war veteran, served in the U.S. Navy during World War II. He spends his time now writing poetry and song lyrics. Previous works include Something from the Eaves, The Caretaker, and Echoes from the Universe, and his first album, All My Favorites, which released with Emerald Records in 2010. Evans continues to give back to his country today by donating all the money he earns with his literary and music career to his favorite charity, "Feed the Children."

Law school teaches you how to be a lawyer━not how to land a job as a lawyer. The Jobless Lawyer's Handbook: How to Get Hired as a Lawyer teaches you step-by-step how to land a job as a lawyer. When the book's author, Brian Potts, was in law school, he applied to work at every top 100 law firm in the U.S.-and he received form rejection letters from all of them. None of them even interviewed him. Now a partner at one of those law firms, Brian scraped his way to the top using many of the methods in this book. Be forewarned: this book is blunt. Some might call it crass. That's intentional. You might not agree with some of the book's recommendations and approaches, and that's fine. But hopefully you'll come away from this book having landed your dream job. That's the goal. In fact, this book comes with a guarantee: If you haven't gotten a job as a lawyer within a reasonable amount of time after reading his book (and you've passed a bar exam), Brian will give you your money back.

Whether by luck or through some kind of inner charm, Teagartin has managed to traverse the wilds, while unknowingly being pursued. Private investigator Sam Crowfeather, still unsure of why he was hired, is propelled into the back country in search of Teagartin.
