The first of these two books covers J. J. Leahys generation. You need to read the story of the First Generation before you go no to read this book. It is the story of his youngest sons generation. Gerard is the only surviving member of J. J. Leahys nine children. His is a very different story as he was fortunate to spent most of his life on one property, working and bringing up his family in a small and isolated rural community. In the early days, few community members travelled far, but wars, improved transport, and communications gradually changed this sense of isolation and opened up the community. With the changes toward the centralising of the management of health services, bush fire management, and the many other services local communities managed in the past, it would now be difficult to be as involved in the community as the author was in this story. This Second Generation did not build up great wealth but possibility ended up better off in other ways. Gerard Leahy was born in 1930 and was educated at St. Ignatius College, Riverview in Sydney. He worked for a year in the International Harvester tractor factory at Geelong in Victoria. After a years jackerooing on his fathers property Oban in north western Queensland out from Mt. Isa, he spent all his working life on Burra Station near Tumbarumba in the Snowy Mountains of New South Wales. He was involved in many sporting and community activities in the Tumbarumba District. After selling his property, he moved to the Blue Mountains west of Sydney.
This loose history is primarily written for the descendants of Edward James Abbott. Specifi cally, it traces the path from Edward J. Abbott through William M. Abbott and his children. Along the way, side roads are explored about people in and about the town of Wilton, NH. The title refl ects an old Norwegian saying which conveys the thought that one generation works hard, the second lives off the fruit of that effort, and the third generation is back to working hard. The early parts of this piece are partly conjecture by the writer.
Building upon his previous books about Marx, Hayek, and Rand, Total Freedom completes what Lingua Franca has called Sciabarra’s "epic scholarly quest" to reclaim dialectics, usually associated with the Marxian left, as a methodology that can revivify libertarian thought. Part One surveys the history of dialectics from the ancient Greeks through the Austrian school of economics. Part Two investigates in detail the work of Murray Rothbard as a leading modern libertarian, in whose thought Sciabarra finds both dialectical and nondialectical elements. Ultimately, Sciabarra aims for a dialectical-libertarian synthesis, highlighting the need (not sufficiently recognized in liberalism) to think of the "totality" of interconnections in a dynamic system as the way to ensure human freedom while avoiding "totalitarianism" (such as resulted from Marxism).
A gripping tale of lust, love, lies, and murder.Sooner or later, in one way or another, everyone in this story lies. The result is a tangled web of envy, greed, and lust leading to misguided desires and murder. In her first novel Adriana Bright, daughter of the famous Elizabeth Bright, has produced a real can't-put-down page turner.
Ambivalent about returning to his NYPD precinct after a suspension, officer Jackson Steeg awakes suddenly one night to find his Hells Kitchen tenement embroiled in the investigation of a neighbors murder, a case that enmeshes Steeg in a sordid mystery involving his own family.
Another group of strange stories from my computer. As with everything I write there is a kernel of truth in the tale that is covered over with enough fiction that the people, places, and things mentioned are not easily recognized. Consider them all fiction, and you will sleep better at night, as well as be certain that any conspiracies truly do not exist.
