Live the extraordinary adventure of the gold rush, to span the gorges of the Klondike, to face the rapids of the Yukon, to spend months in solitude and silence to pan with bare hands in icy waters and to sleep, camping in the open near a fire, for fear of bears. On horseback, between the XIX and the XX centuries, it was the destiny of thousands of men disposed to do everything in order to achieve their dream of wealth. Felice Pedroni, later known as Felix Pedro, was one of these legendary seekers. An introvert mountaineer that in 1881 left the Modena Apennines (Italy) to seek a better life in America, and in 1905 he returns to Trignano di Fanano to get married, with a belt full of gold nuggets instead of bullets. The world seems to be at his feet, and the future too. But like the gold vein, sooner or later it runs out...On the trail of this hero of the past, two mystery lovers fascinated by the life of Felix Pedro and curious about the obscure circumstances which envelop his death, willfully undertake obstinate research and an astounding investigation (even exhuming the body) to reconstruct an impressive story of great allure, an epic and, at the same time profoundly human.

Vivere la straordinaria avventura della corsa all’oro, attraversare le gole del Klondike e affrontare le rapide dello Yukon, passare mesi in solitudine e silenzio a spadellare con le mani immerse nell’acqua ghiacciata, accamparsi le notti all’addiaccio vicino a un fuoco per paura degli orsi. A cavallo fra il XIX e il XX secolo è stato il destino di migliaia di uomini disposti a tutto pur di realizzare il loro sogno di ricchezza. Felice Pedroni, poi diventato Felix Pedro, è stato uno di questi leggendari cercatori. Un introverso montanaro che nel 1881 lascia l’Appennino modenese per andare a cercare una vita migliore in America e nel 1905 torna a Trignano di Fanano per prender moglie con un cinturone pieno di pepite al posto dei proiettili. Il mondo sembra ai suoi piedi ma anche la fortuna, come i filoni d’oro, prima o poi si esaurisce… Sulle tracce di questo eroe d’altri tempi, due amanti del mistero che, affascinati dalla vita di Felix Pedro e incuriositi dalle oscure circostanze della sua morte, si impegnano in ostinate ricerche e mirabolanti indagini (riesumandone persino il corpo), per ricostruire una storia di grande fascino, epica e profondamente umana al tempo stesso.

The baby grew up in the orphanage where the Nuns discovered he had a brilliant mind and a uncanny gift of being able to duplicate any great artist. What they didn't discover is his lack of compassion and his fascination with death. He honed the skills of a killer during his period in the orphanage. He went on to become a serial killer where he took his vacations on the luxurious cruise ship Ellen Jean.

This book offers biographical aspects of the authoress and a selection of her conferences on the revolution in Nicaragua and the foreign politics of the United States in the 80s. The conferences were given to religious leaders, university students, the Reagan administration, and the Congress and leaders of diverse organizations in the United States. It helps us to visualize the process of internal transformations that Maryknoll, the most revolutionary missionary order of the United States, experienced at that time and the participation of many of its members in the processes of change of Central America. Through her interesting annotations, the authoress helps us to visualize the process of internal transformation that Maryknoll suffered, and the participation of many of its members in that process of change given a quote of martyrdom. One of the nuns who worked in Nicaragua with the authoress, Sister Maura Clark, was murdered later in El Salvador together with others nuns as well a lay volunteer. The book also offers a vision of the popular participation in the Nicaraguan revolution of 1979, an aspect little known and that the authoress was touched by. In 1992 she had to leave of Nicaragua and live in exile.

On a bright autumn afternoon in Truro, the Napier family celebrates one couple’s golden wedding anniversary and another’s marriage. But for one member of the clan, the day turns dark. Chris Napier, prodigal son, suddenly spots the ragged specter of a former friend, Nicky Lanyon—a man whose own family was ruined by the same twist of fate with which the Napiers were blessed. And the next morning, Chris is horrified to find Nicky dead, hanging from a tree where the boys once played…. For Chris, the suicide opens a floodgate of doubt and suspicion. How did his family’s wealth slip out of the hands of a great-uncle, brutally murdered before he could change his will? Were the men convicted of the crime truly guilty? And who is the mysterious, seductive woman who claims to know the Napiers’ darkest secrets? As the crimes of two families are exposed, a series of violent acts shadows him and suddenly Chris knows he’s in uncharted waters…until a killer drops one last disguise—for the ultimate act of revenge.

In this humorous and upbeat memoir, James Wickersham describes his career as a pioneer judge and later as a congressional representative assigned to a vast, snow-covered district, extending over 300,000 square miles in the undeveloped Alaska Territory. Wickersham’s many adventures include traveling by dogsled over hundreds of miles through snow-covered mountains; serving as judge for the trials of many famous outlaws in the midst of the gold strikes; and hunting, mining, and climbing in his local Alaska wilderness. Though he was instrumental in the early history of Alaska, and his legacy is evident throughout the state—for example, he named the city of Fairbanks—this is the first and only work to focus on Wickersham’s life during this pivotal time in Alaska’s history.
