This Is my written book. Everything I share is true. Let Me Introduce Myself To vancouver BC My name is Nina McCutcheon and I came from London Ontario Canada. Hi Vancouver BC. I love your Mountains, you have beautiful Country here. I believe you do not know how blessed you are to have such beauty, though I also believe it is time you take better care of your City. Many people travel to BC and love it here, but they are not respected when arriving here. Your City is a resort City, with many people driving through from all over the world, they desire to see Vancouver BC people start being kinder and this way they may come back. Since I have been here, I have not been respected, the attitudes are ones to be acquired . Everyone needs a heart and attitude check. I am a lady who is going to be 50 years of age in June 2017 and I have been through more then my age. I had a councilor say to me when I was 18 years of age tell me that I have experienced 3 times my age. That would make me 150 years experienced. WOW EH? Experienced I am, and I am a Believer as well in Jesus Christ. I stand on His commands, Laws, and Statutes, Not Man Kinds Laws , Statutes and commands. Though I respect some of mans Laws , if they apply to what God expects of me only. For example a red light means stop, ill abide knowing it is for my safety. Though I do not respect any laws that Man Kind puts into place that causes unlawful conduct, like Poverty, slavery, killing, swearing, selfishness, unrighteous behavior , or anything that tells me I can not go to a washroom if I need to. My God Jesus Christ, who is God of everyone even if they do not agree, is the only one I Listen to. If you as a Government believe that Poverty is a right and okay with God, you are very wrong to think that.…

Summary
Chapters

The History of Galveston, Texas, begins with the archaeological record of Native Americans who used the island. The first European settlements on the island were constructed around 1816. The Port of Galveston was established in 1825 by the Congress of Mexico following its successful revolution from Spain. The city served as the main port for the Texas Navy during the Texas Revolution. Galveston was founded in 1836 by Matthew Sabo and served as the capital of the Republic of Texas. The Battle of Galveston was fought in Galveston Bay during the American Civil War when Confederate forces under Major General John B. Magruder attacked and expelled occupying Union troops from the city. Exploration and settlement Galveston Island was originally inhabited by members of the Karankawa and Akokisa tribes who used the name "Auia" for the island. In 1519, the Alonso Álvarez de Pineda expedition sailed past Galveston Island en route from the Florida peninsula to the Pánuco River. Pineda may or may not have actually seen the island, however, Spain lay claim to the entire Gulf Coast, including Galveston Island, based on the 1519 Pineda expedition. Soon afterward, Cabeza de Vaca and his crew were shipwrecked on the island (or nearby) in November 1528, calling it "Isla de Malhado" ("Isle of Doom"), and from there began his famous trek to Mexico. Various Spanish explorers charting the region referred to the island as "Isla Blanca" ("White Island") and later "Isla de Aranjuez" ("Aranjuez Island"). In 1685 French explorer La Salle named the island "San Louis" ("Saint Louis") and the name became fixed for some time. Golden era At the end of the 19th century, the city of Galveston was a booming metropolis with a population of 37,000. Its position on the natural harbor of Galveston Bay along the Gulf of Mexico made it the center of trade in Texas, and one of the largest cotton ports in the nation, in competition with New Orleans. Between 1838 and 1842, 18 newspapers were started to serve the island's rapidly growing population (The Galveston County Daily News is the sole survivor). A causeway linking…

When I toured across Europe for promotion of a recent published book, I anticipated some sort of confrontation between my own values of what a book launch should be, perhaps a theatrical presentation, and traditional publishing values alongside the usual audiences and critics. In fact, the book tour was a thrilling experience for me, the book sold well, the audiences were enthusiastic and everyone involved worked incredibly hard to present a structured launch in venues of varying sizes – even some of the critics liked it. Chris Henson travelled with me on the entire tour. This book is a record of it. We both hope you enjoy it.

Chapters

The American West was a notion, not a nation. It was a process, not a place. The native animal and human life of the West was displaced, replaced, and exterminated- sixty million bison to make way for European bog animals, billions of passenger pigeons for nothing, and ninety percent of aboriginal native Americans, out of an original population of possibly a hundred million, by accident and design. Late in the summer of 2013, I set out to find the Old West, what it had been, and what had replaced it. The quest for my own wild panorama would turn wheels of fortune into a movable feast of Wagon Days. And if this don’t get your fire started, your wood’s wet.

Most remote islands of the imagination conjure up paradise. Japan is an archipelago of puzzlement. From the sands that forged their swords and serenity, they traveled a Samurai Road of temples and shrines, feudal fortresses, and flowing mountain streams of wasabi. On sashimi and soy sauce, and green tea over rice, they lived a thousand years of pathos, under cherry blossoms and ephemeral moonlight, in Zen gardens and futon dreams. It was all so perfect.

It lives in the hole where the moon used to be. And for most of the worst part of the northern winter, over the last two decades, so have we. The real South Pacific was not a Bali Hai musical, but a drama of cannibals and castaways, headhunters and slavers, paradise and perdition. This is a book of saline psalms. This is water.
