Hell Riders

On 25 October 1854, during the Crimean War, the Light Brigade of the British Cavalry Division made the most magnificent and most brutal charge in military history. Almost 700 men armed with sabre and lance, charged straight at the muzzles of Russian cannons. This vivid and extraordinarily detailed account of the charge and the bloody mêlée that followed, by an author with unique access to regimental archives, is told largely in the words of the survivors themselves. Terry Brighton takes the reader closer than ever before to the experience of charging down the Valley of Death.

Thirty years ago, they came together on a war-torn frontier. Now, they’ll stand together once more—to honor one of their own... It’s a thousand miles from snowbound Montana to the Arizona Territory. But for Trap O’Shannon and Clay Madison, it’s a journey they’re duty bound to make—for the bravest man they’d ever known had made it clear: Captain Hezekiah Roman wanted to be buried in Arizona’s dusty red soil. A train takes the fallen hero south, along with his two fellow Scout Trackers and a Nez Perce woman who once fought by their side. But as the veterans recall a tale that begins with a moment of blood and agony decades before, they cannot know that death is stalking this train... or that to a bury a hero, they’ll have to risk their lives one more time. Mark Henry brings the violence and raw beauty of the frontier to life in a bold and brilliant new saga that takes us on an unforgettable journey across the American West. "Crackling with authenticity and page-turning tension. Mark Henry will become a legend." —Richard S. Wheeler, 2005 Spur-winning author of Vengeance Valley

Hero or Villain? There's no question that Glenn Curtiss was one of the most significant figures in the early development of motorcycles, aviation, and engine development. This book will take you on a journey through both his life and his innovative technological developments. And what a life it was. Descriptions of this man prove to be contradictory and controversial. He was quiet, yet dashing. Kind, yet stern. Uneducated, yet a technological and entrepreneurial pioneer. He began his inventing career by building and racing motorcycles, while creating new internal combustion engines, then moved on to work with dirigibles, airplanes (particularly seaplanes), community development, and travel trailers. In the end, Glenn Curtiss - a man respected by contemporaries for his character - went to his grave accused of fiduciary irresponsibility and patent theft. His bitter patent disputes with the Wright Brothers leave many wondering whether Curtiss should be seen as a hero or a villain when his place in history is considered. Hell-Rider to King of the Air examines Curtiss's life, career, and accomplishments in an engaging and accessible way, so that readers can answer that question for themselves.

Two friends engage on a seemingly boring road trip to visit a dying family member. Little did they know they would be thrust into the fight for their life. A fun "Fictional Autobiography" about the lengths that someone will go to for the people that they care about, and the bonds of friendship.
