Orlando Firefighting

By: Ginger Bryant

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Mystery surrounds the origins of Orlandos name, but the most probable explanation for its moniker dates back to the exploits of Orlando Reeves. While guarding Central Florida forts against Native American attacks, Reeves was alarmed in the middle of the night. A log rolled toward Reeves in the darkness, and he knew it disguised movement by an opponent. After firing his gun to awaken his fellow soldiers, he was bombarded by arrows, which resulted in his death. Orlandos name was bestowed upon a local post office in 1857 and then on the city incorporated in 1875. Just like the brave solider for whom the city was named, firefighters of Orlando boldly risk their lives for the welfare of others. This volume commemorates those men and women and traces a rich history from 1883, when a devastating fire inspired William C. Sherman to start a volunteer fire company, to today.

Above The City

Hiking Hong Kong Island

By: Alicia M. Kershaw,Ginger Thrash

Above the City: Hiking Hong Kong Island is a unique comprehensive guide to walks and hikes on Hong Kong Island. Many Hong Kong residents and visitors enjoy a few famous hikes, but then are at a loss to find more routes. Above the City takes the walking enthusiast beyond the well-trodden paths and explores all the walks available on Hong Kong Island. Walkers can find outings to suit their every mood, and variations on well-known and well-loved walks. Every walking route on the Island is described in detail, including distance and difficulty ratings. The hikes are organized around “hubs,” allowing easy identification. They also are indexed by special interests, such as routes that can be run, that are suitable for families, or the most scenic. Directions to the walks by public transportation and by car are provided, and local amenities, such as rest stops, restaurants and local historical sites are listed. Local residents who are seeking more walking choices, walking groups, or visitors to Hong Kong will find Above the City an invaluable hiking companion. “Can beguiling, solitary hiking trails exist just kilometres from Hong Kong’s crowded streets? Or wild summit panoramas beckon ‘above the city’? Alicia Kershaw and Ginger Thrash know they do. With ample practical hints, and obvious delight in hiking, the authors guide us along the many wonderful trails on Hong Kong Island. Knowing the joys of hiking—and how steep Hong Kong hills can seem!—they encourage us to put on our hiking boots.” —Edward Stokes, Hongkong Conservation Photography Foundation “Even more helpful for residents than for visitors, Above the City offers clear, concise directions to places seemingly out-of-the-way, yet close to the city. Practical, helpful details, such as bus routes, points of access and places to eat or relax, are interspersed with out-of-the-ordinary elements of local history and ecology, all engagingly brought together in a chatty, enthusiastic style. Above the City should be an essential companion for any walk across ‘over-crowded’ Hong Kong Island’s beautiful open spaces.” —Jason Wordie, Hong Kong historian and author

Stolen

By: Ginger R. Brown

At the age of twenty-one, Kenny has not overcome the trauma of being kidnapped by a pedophile when he was a child. He vows to find and confront his kidnapper. Jimmy is nine years old and meets a man named Joe. He gets into Joe’s car and becomes the latest captive. Joe is a genius, well educated, and has an important job with a government contractor. He has passed numerous security clearances without question. He does not think he is a dangerous person. All he wants is someone to love him, the way any son would love his father. Kenny describes Joe to an artist friend who draws a remarkable likeness. Kenny turns to the Internet, creates a web page, puts the picture on it, and asks for people to help identify the whereabouts of Joe. He meets someone online who thinks he works with a man who looks a lot like the picture. He agrees to help. Sue is Jimmy’s mother. When a week passes and Jimmy still isn’t found, she gets actively involved in the search for her son. She initiates a fund-raising campaign to get money for a reward, gets posters printed and distributed. She goes on TV to plead for his return and gives interviews to newspaper reporters. Kathy is Joe’s ex-wife. She has maintained minimal contact with him over the years. Now that she is getting remarried, she is drawn back into his world again. Her guilty conscience bothers her because she never reported Joe’s fantasies to anyone in authority. The newspapers and television news programs report daily on Jimmy’s disappearance and she begins to wonder if her ex took him.

Springfield

Springfield

By: Ginger Cruickshank

Situated at the crossroads of New England, Springfield, Massachusetts, was founded in 1636 by twelve families led by William Pynchon, who named the settlement after his birthplace in England. This book, the first of a two-volume set, is a collection of many never-before-seen photographs that tell the story of this citys history. Springfield is a city of firsts. The first successful gasoline-powered engine was built by the Duryea brothers here; the first U.S. musket was made at the Springfield Armory; and in 1891, resident Dr. James Naismith invented the game of basketball. The citys ties to the U.S. military are illustrated here, as are its many religious and ethnic communities. Within these pages, we can see images of a very different Springfield, including buildings much changed or long gone, and people remembered now in family albums.

Yosemite's Songster

One Coyote's Story

By: Ginger Wadsworth

Coyote is separated from her mate by a rockfall and searches the park to find him. Sometimes silent, occasionally observed, always watchful, Coyote makes her way from one memorable site to another, singing a lonely song of yips and yowls. Gorgeous watercolor paintings of Yosemite illuminate this ultimately satisfying story, while the text closely observes one of the park's most familiar kind of wild resident. Young readers will discover much about coyotes, and will also delight in spotting the places they too have visited—Half Dome, Sentinel Bridge, Stoneman Meadow, the Ahwahnee, and more.

日本語NOW! NihonGO NOW!

Performing Japanese Culture – Level 2 Volume 2 Textbook

By: Mari Noda,Patricia J. Wetzel,Ginger Marcus,Stephen D. Luft,Shinsuke Tsuchiya

NihonGO NOW! Level 2 is an intermediate-level courseware package that takes a performed-culture approach to learning Japanese. This approach balances the need for an intellectual understanding of structural elements with multiple opportunities to experience the language within its cultural context. From the outset, learners are presented with samples of authentic language that are context-sensitive and culturally coherent. Instructional time is used primarily to rehearse interactions that learners of Japanese are likely to encounter in the future, whether they involve speaking, listening, writing, or reading. Level 2 comprises two textbooks with accompanying activity books. These four books in combination with audio and video files allow instructors to adapt an intermediate-level course, such as the second or third year of college Japanese, to their students’ needs. They focus on language and modeled behavior, providing opportunities for learners to acquire language through performance templates. Online resources provide additional support for both students and instructors. Audio files, videos, supplementary exercises, and a teachers’ manual are available at www.routledge.com/9781138305304. NihonGO NOW! Level 2 Volume 2 Textbook is ideally accompanied by the Level 2 Volume 2 Activity Book.

Double Grudge Donuts

By: Ginger Bolton

The countdown is on as Deputy Donut Café owner Emily Westhill gets ready for married life. But before she takes the plunge, she’ll need to poke a hole in a deadly criminal’s plans . . . When the Fallingbrook Arts Festival rolls into town weeks before she’s set to tie the knot, Emily expects talent and friendly competition at the week-long summer series to go together like coffee and double fudge. But the fun crumbles fast after a lively bagpiper takes first place on day one and turns heads for the wrong reasons—all before Emily and her tabby cat find him dead in a clear case of murder. Along with a distinctive weapon at the crime scene, several strategically placed items leave disturbing clues about the killer’s identity, including a broken piece of a Deputy Donut mug . . . While detectives aren’t sure who silenced the bagpiper’s music, they don’t trust Emily or her family to tell the truth. With her nuptials and career on the line, Emily launches an unsettling investigation to save herself from trouble and bring a dangerous figure to justice. The search not only brings too many suspects into the picture, but also leads to a strange discovery on Deputy Donut’s rooftop. A discovery that tells Emily she better get cooking, because someone may be watching her every move . . . and carefully plotting to turn a wedding into a funeral!
