High in the eastern Himalayan foothills, people had a unique
vantage point on the British Empire. The Mizo Discovery of the
British Raj presents a history of Mizoram in Northeast India told
from historical Indigenous perspectives of encounters with empire
from the 1890s to the 1920s. Based on a wide range of research and
enriched by sources newly digitised by the author through the
British Library's Endangered Archives Programme, Kyle Jackson sheds
new light on the complex and violent processes of how and why
diverse populations of highland clans in the Indo-Burmese
borderlands came to redeďŹne themselves as Christian Mizos. By
using historical Indigenous concepts and logics to approach early
twentieth-century imperial encounters, Jackson guides readers into
a decolonial history of Northeast India, demonstrating the value of
thinking not just about the histories of colonized peoples and
concepts but also with them.
Track and field season has arrived, and Mac is ready to report.
Between last year's returning stars and standout newcomer Aleesha
Ramos, the Predators are poised for an even better year at the
state championships. That is, until practice ends, and meets begin.
When the bleachers fill, Aleesha's sprinting is unremarkable. While
the other sprinters warm up, Aleesha looks down. During races, she
clips hurdles and loses speed. And afterward, she simply
disappears. Mac is determined to find out why. Can Mac find out the
cause behind the sprinter's poor performance? Or will the Predators
lose their chance at a championship win? Stewart "Mac" McKenzie is
THE sports expert at Coyote Canyon Middle School, and its best
sports reporter. While he scores big on the court with his
wheelchair basketball team, his love for all sports is equally
epic. There isn't a stat he doesn't know, a player's name he
doesn't recognize, a big game he hasn't seen.
Mac loves uncovering stories, but ever since the arrival of new
student Roe Danner, there's one story he just can't figure out. The
introverted tennis prodigy may make herself known on the court, but
off the court, she's a total mystery. And before long, Roe's
playing starts sparking rumors too. Even though she's right-handed,
she plays with her left. And instead of sticking to the baseline,
she charges the net. She even replaces her state-of-the-art
graphite racket with an old wooden one. It's up to Mac to discover
the truth behind Roe's odd antics. If he can do that, he might be
able to stop the rumors and help bring Roe the fan support she
needs. Stewart "Mac" McKenzie is THE sports expert at Coyote Canyon

The Predators are on a hot streak, but their star shooter is in a
slump. Drew Borders isn't putting up the numbers, and no
one--except Mac--wants to go on record as to why. It's obvious to
Mac that Drew's overly critical and loud father, powerful attorney
Larry Borders, is the root of the problem. When Drew is benched,
and the sideline commentary from Mr. Borders doesn't stop, Mac
decides to take matters into his own hands. Will the Predators miss
out on the conference final with their sharpshooter riding the
pine? And what happens when Mac uses his investigative reporting to
call Mr. Borders' behavior into question? Stewart "Mac" McKenzie is

When the Predators' starting quarterback, Ryan Mitchell, gets
sacked at the end of a game, Mac seems to be the only one concerned
about the hit . . . at first. And even though Mac does not report
his off-the-record talk with Ryan, Mac--and his reporting--has a
lot to do with Ryan being sidelined with a concussion. When Ryan's
starting spot gets bumped by a replacement, Ryan is furious with
Mac. What will it take to get Ryan back in the game? And what will
