There's a tree that takes anger. Trevor Baker is a big, heavy, and very angry nine-year-old boy who is the neighborhood and school bully.One night after his mother takes away his television, he storms out of the house, shouting, punching, and kicking anything in his path. Unsatisfied after acting out his violence, he comes across the only force that can change him: a large old maple tree next to his house that's tall enough to touch his bedroom window on the second floor.At first, Trevor challenges the tree. Then as his anger consumes him, he punches and kicks it, inflicting minor injuries (mostly to his pride), but it calms him down.Returning to his room, Trevor continues talking to himself, but is no longer shouting that nobody likes him, until he hears a voice. It is the tree that becomes his Anger Tree.The two become good friends, though only Trevor can hear its words, so he reads to the tree and it gives him advice, telling Trevor there's a bigger world for him to explore.This inspirational story will bring out emotions in everyone, and it's a book to be read over and over again.John H.

The 128-year dynasty of the Komneni (1057 to 1185) was the last great epoch of Byzantium, when the empire had to fend off Turkish and Norman foes simultaneously. Starting with the extremely able Alexios I, and unable now to count on help from the West, the Komneni played their strategic cards very well. Though the dynasty ended in cruelty and incompetence under Andronikos I (the Terrible), it fought a valiant rear-guard action in keeping eastern Christendom alive. The Komnene dynasty saw several changes in Byzantine military practice, such as the adoption of heavy cavalry on the western model, the extensive use of foreign mercenaries and the neglect of the navy (both of which were to prove a huge and possibly fatal disadvantage). A chapter is devoted to the famous Varangian Guard, which included many Saxons in exile following the Norman conquest of England. The terrible defeat at Myriokephalon in 1176 sealed the doom of the dynasty, preparing the way for the conquest of Constantinople by the Fourth Crusaders.

When John Carr published this book in 1891, he had already been a Californian for over forty years. His true tales of gold prospecting, gun fights, encounters with Indians, rough characters of the West, and politicos are amusing and highly entertaining. He knew many of the early big players in the state and provides an interesting view of the west during the American Civil War. Among his other employments, he sat as a police judge in Eureka, California and spent time in Tombstone, Arizona, during its wild west period. At the end of the book he provides short biographies of notables he knew. Every memoir of the American West provides us with another view of the movement that changed the country forever.

The little tour which gave birth to the following remarks, was takenimmediately after the exchange of the ratifications of a peace,necessary, but not inglorious to my country, after a contestunexampled in its cause, calamity, extension, vicissitudes and glory;amidst a people who, under the influence of a political change,hitherto unparallelled, were to be approached as an order of beings,exhibiting a moral and political form before but little known tothemselves and to the world, in the abrupt removal of habits andsentiments which had silently and uninterruptedly taken deep rootin the soil of ages.During a separation of ten years, we have received very little accountof this extraordinary people, which could be relied upon. Dissimilarsensations, excited by their principles and proceedings, ever partiallyand irregularly known, have depicted unaccording representationsof them, and, in the sequel, have exhibited rather a high-coloured,fanciful delineation, than a plain and faithful resemblance of theoriginal. Many are the persons who have been thus misled.These fugitive sketches, in which an attempt is made to delineate,just as they occurred, those scenes which, to my mind at least, werenew and interesting, were originally penned for the private perusalof those whom I esteem; and by their persuasion they are nowoffered to the public eye. Amongst them I must be permitted toindulge in the pride and pleasure of enumerating William Hayley,esq. a name familiar and dear to every elegant and polished mind.Enlightened by his emendations, and supported by the cherishingspirit of his approval, I approach, with a more subduedapprehension, the tribunal of public opinion; and to my friends Idedicate this humble result of a short relaxation from the duties of ananxious and laborious profession. If, by submitting to their wishes, Ihave erred, I have only to offer, that it is my first, and shall be mylast offence.Totnes, August, 1802. JOHN CARR.
