A crayfish party is being held on a private island in the Finnish archipelago in honor of Ray Dunhew, who is an important customer of the party’s host and who is visiting Finland for the first time. Copious amounts of schnapps will be consumed and the host and his wife have solicited the help of Sophie, the attractive eighteen-year-old daughter of very good friends of theirs, to make sure the schnapps glass of each and every guest is topped up. All goes well until most of the crayfish have been consumed and Sophie is walking round the table filling up the glasses for the last time. As she stands beside Dunhew, filling up his glass, she freezes. She gives him a long hard look and then continues round the table filling up everyone else’s glass. She then goes back into the kitchen and, with tears in her eyes, reports that Dunhew had just molested her. The morning before Dunhew is due to fly back to England, he goes missing.
Aiming at supremacy in church and state, Henry VIII had destroyed regional pilgrimage shrines that drew both earthly and religious loyalty. Seeking a fairer image of God in Trinity, religious writers felt compelled to modify political concepts of authority, sovereignty, and assent already associated with Father, son, and Spirit. In the process, both God and the king were transformed.
Dr. Malcolm Harris' two-volume history and genealogy of "Old" New Kent County (the three present-day counties in the aggregate) is one of the great achievements of Virginia local history of the last century. Clearfield Company is honored to have been selected by the Harris family to produce this hardcover edition of "Old New Kent County." Privately published and out of print for many years, this work takes on even greater importance in light of the loss of county records in New Kent and in King & Queen counties and the survival of mere fragments for King William County prior to 1865.

Om den sorte, muslimske, politiske lederskikkelse Malcolm X (1925-1965), der efter en fattig barndom og en ungdom med kriminalitet, kæmpede for ophævelse af racediskrimination i USA, indtil han blev myrdet i 1965
Presents the major ideas expounded by the legendary leader of the Black revolution in America through selected speeches delivered from 1963 to his assassination in 1965.
A study of Malcolm X during the four years prior to his death, drawn from his speeches and documenting his changing attitudes, is accompanied by three speeches given at Harvard
Malcolm X gave black Americans not only their consciousness, but their history, their dignity, and a new pride. No single individual can claim a more important responsibility for a sociological and historical leap forward such as the one sparked in America in the 1960s. In 1965, when Malcolm X was gunned down on the stage of a Harlem theater, America lost one of its eminent political thinkers. Here in his own words are the revolutionary ideas that made Malcolm X one of the most charismatic and influential African-American leaders in American history. They are the thoughts of a determined leader during a turbulent, sometimes impossible time, and are invaluable in understanding not only the historical context of the Civil Rights movement but also contemporary identity and culture in the United States. These speeches document Malcolm’s progression from Black nationalism to internationalism, and are key to both understanding his extraordinary life and illuminating his angry yet uplifting cause.
