AS SEEN IN THE SHOWTIME 4-PART SERIES!In 1958, nineteen-year-old
Charles Starkweather gained notoriety as one of the nation’s
first spree killers. He murdered eleven people in Nebraska and one
in Wyoming. After a week on the run, he was arrested, later
convicted, and sentenced to die in the electric chair.
Starkweather’s girlfriend, Caril Fugate, fourteen, was with him
throughout the murder spree. Was she his hostage or a participant?
This question still stirs debate more than sixty years later.
Fugate claims she was too terrified to attempt
escape—Starkweather had told her he would have her family killed
if she disobeyed him. Unbeknownst to her, he had already murdered
them. A jury found Fugate guilty of first degree murder. She was
sentenced to life in prison; however, in 1976 she was paroled at
age thirty-two. Now, in The Twelfth Victim, attorneys Linda M.
Battisti and John S. Berry, Sr. pull together years of research to
tell how Fugate was a victim of both Charles Starkweather and the
Nebraska justice system.

in ourselves and others.
It explains clearly and simply the liberating reality of what
the Bible tells us about doubt, assurance and the Christian
life.

Kodokan judo, one of the most well-known martial arts in the world
today, was originated by Jigoro Kano (1860-1938). Kano was a
martial artist and career educator who developed the art after
studying several types of jujutsu, sumo, and Western wrestling.
Openness and refinement were hallmarks of his personal and
professional style, and he relentlessly searched for the best way
to practice, teach, and perform techniques. This biography shows
how Kano saw judo as a vehicle not just for self-defence, but for
physical, spiritual, and moral development as well.
The "counterpoint" to The Art of War--an inspiring collection of sayings and teachings on the peaceful resolution of conflict. Unlike other popular Eastern philosophies which accept the inevitability of violence as a means to victory--such as Musashi's Book of Five Rings--Aikido fosters fearlessness, wisdom, and compassion and is based on the universal principles of harmony and love of life.
Many wild plant names are derived from early Greek, Latin, or Old
English and their antiquity can often cloud their original meaning.
As the names of some plants have passed through the ages, their
initial significance may have became distorted through mistakes in
spelling, grammar, translation or simply through misunderstanding.
In the eighteenth century the Swedish naturalist Linnaeus sought to
bring order to the confusion of botanical classification by
introducing a system of scientific names that would be universally
understood. This book traces the origins of both the popular
English names and the scientific names of many of the most common
species of wild plants and trees in Great Britain. With detailed
line drawings of some of the plants mentioned, John E. Stevens
provides a comprehensive glossary of plant names from 'Aaron's rod'
to 'Yew', making this a perfect pocket guide for keen gardeners and
plant enthusiasts.
"Long esteemed as one of the most valued works from the 19th
century on the art of mothering and the glory of the work of the
mother at home. For any girl who was raised without much discipline
and in need of instruction on proper discipline of her own
children, this is a superb guide. Rarely in print and worth
obtaining at any price. Christian mothers who want biblical counsel
on Christian child rearing will find this book valuable." -Grace
and Truth Books "The object of this book is practical utility, not
literary effect. It is written for mothers in the common walks of
life. There are many mothers, in every village of our land, who are
looking eagerly for information respecting the government of their
children. It is hoped that the following treatise may render them
some assistance." from the Author's Preface
