C. L. Sonnichsen, "Judge Roy Bean: Law West of the Pecos"
English | ISBN: 1932801359 | 2016 | 246 pages | EPUB | 5 MB
Roy Bean was one of the most colorful characters to inhabit the state of Texas, and he chose one of the state's most Godforsaken places as his personal dominion-the empty, dusty plains west of the Pecos River's junction with the Rio Grande, out near... well, not really near anyplace to speak of. Sandwiched between the banks of the Rio Grande and the Sunset Route of the Southern Pacific Railroad, Bean's corner of the world began as a rough railroad camp and went downhill from there. Bean named his town Langtry, after the famous and beautiful English entertainer Miss Lily Langtry. Adopting her popular nickname, he dubbed his notorious saloon and pool hall the Jersey Lilly (spelling was not Bean's greatest strength). The tales of his escapades are countless; Sonnichsen surely had to choose only the best to include in his book. Whether Bean was chaining a drunk to a half-tamed bear or claiming that the Jersey Lilly had a policy against making change (what you proffered, he kept), Roy Bean cut a wide swath through Texas folklore.It was his status as judge-or justice of the peace, to be more precise-that brought the greatest glory to Roy Bean. Should a bar patron complain of the no-change policy, Judge Roy Bean would announce himself the Law West of the Pecos and would fine the complainer, said fine being in the exact amount of the change claimed. And that was only the beginning. The stories go on and on; the reader will find dozens in the pages of this classic book.

Indian Ocean Region: Maritime Regimes for Regional Cooperation By Manoj Gupta (auth.)
2010 | 400 Pages | ISBN: 1441959882 | PDF | 7 MB
The Indian Ocean region is arguably one of the world's least understood, yet its importance in geopolitics and international relations is greater than ever before. This book explores the concepts of regime theory, regional orders and ocean governance to critically assess the effectiveness of maritime regimes, something that not been attempted before for the Indian Ocean Region. This study employs the theoretical framework of international regimes in the context of ocean governance by developing a new model, which is used to test the regimes' effectiveness.This book addresses the analytical gap in our understanding about the strategic importance of the Indian Ocean as a region in contemporary world geopolitics and international relations. Case studies display the groundwork for regional cooperation in the maritime realm laid by Indian Ocean countries, and the effectiveness of current political leadership is addressed. There is considerable value in looking at the Indian Ocean as a region for future analysis of maritime regimes, and this book proposes that international maritime regimes can expand regional cooperation in the Indian Ocean to create a new geopolitical region. The interdisciplinary approach presented draws on historical analysis, international maritime law, political science, international relations and the literature on regime theory and will be of interest to academics in those fields as well as policy-makers concerned with maritime issues.This book is original in many ways and makes a significant contribution to the knowledge on the Indian Ocean. The book is well researched and documented with a very creative approach in regimes to ocean governance and regional cooperation in international relations. This book is particularly eloquent and helpful in developing an understanding of maritime regimes in the Indian Ocean. The book offers a refreshing and original approach to overcoming the difficulties of developing Indian Ocean cooperation.Professor Dr. Hasjim DjalalThis book presents a thoughtful and careful analysis of regional Indian Ocean issues, based on extensive and difficult research. It helps readers understand what has been accomplished in the region, but also what remains to be done. The author provides a road map for the countries of this region to follow and challenges them to work together more effectively in the future.Professor Jon Van Dyke

Income Investing Explained: Your Questions Answered by Henry Mah CMA
English | August 20, 2020 | ISBN: 1777241022 | 140 pages | PDF | 2.81 Mb
After writing two books about Income Investing, I have been contacted regularly by readers with questions and requests for more information. It's not often one feels compelled to write a book because of questions from readers, but that's exactly how this book came about. It's not that readers didn't understand the process I described, it's just that people wanted more details, had specific suggestions and needed more information about making investing decisions, especially during different (and difficult) market conditions. In essence, people wanted an advanced outline to build upon the process described in my earlier books. So, the purpose of this book is not to repeat the process of stock evaluation, which is the foundation of my earlier books, but to provide further explanations and examples to help when making investing decisions. -Where to find ideal stocks for Income investing-How to determine under-valued stocks-How many stocks should you hold and in which sectors?-When to sell, even your long-time good stocks-What happens and how your decisions might change during a market crisis-Is it ever too late to start investing for income?I'll also introduce a new Excel worksheet to help readers determine under-valued or expensive stocks, directing you to a new website for obtaining dividend data, and even provide a list of 45 Canadian and 35 US stocks, from which to begin your selection of quality income growth stocks. As always, these are my opinions and not professional financial advice. So, if you have the time and want to learn more, let's continue talking about Income Investing!
