This is the graphic, authentic and often humorous autobiography of a young man's journey into Melbourne's underworld and nightclub scene in the recent past. <br /> <br />'The Hammer' was a feared enforcer capable of inflicting indescribable pain on anyone that stood in has way. Supreme violence and a manipulative calculating streak were tools of the trade. <br />This story gives the reader a rare insight into addiction, the dark art of violence and ego involved in the world of a drug dealer, debt collector and stand over man in Melbourne's underworld scene. <br /> <br />An embracing family background and unwavering ability to believe he was destined for redemption allowed 'The Hammer' to claw his way back from the darkness and use his hard-earned experience to assist men to break the cycle of addiction and crime and re-discover their own power and spirit. <br /> <br /><i>Nice work mate! Proud of you and glad to call you my friend. </i>– Trevor Hendy AM

Daddy Who? is the story of a phenomenon, a band that in eighteen short months changed the course of Australian rock history.Author and musician Craig Horne was with Daddy Cool every inch of the way. With an insider's view, he tracks the journey from when they burst onto the scene in October 1970, with their infectious doo-wop mayhem, and follows their rapid rise to the top—when they were on the front cover of every newspaper and rock magazine in the country, and when radio churned out hits like 'Eagle Rock', 'Come Back Again' and 'Hi Honey Ho!' virtually nonstop.The book reveals the madness of Daddy Cool's three US tours, from their showcase performance at LA's Whisky A Go Go, to New York's famed Madison Square Garden, and supporting the likes of Elvin Bishop, Fleetwood Mac, Deep Purple, Little Feat and Captain Beefheart. &quot; Daddy Who? is the first book to tell the complete story of the enduring legacy of one of the most unique and much loved bands Australia has ever produced. Daddy Cool are one of the most impressive bands I've ever heard … And 'Eagle Rock' is one of my favourite tracks of all time.&quot; – Sir Elton John, 1975

Он командовал Парадом Победы и умел побеждать НЕ любой ценой. Его по праву величают «Багратионом сталинской эпохи». В его биографии, как в зеркале, отразилась судьба страны: он участвовал в четырех войнах, был трижды ранен и тридцать месяцев отсидел в «Крестах», прошел боевой путь от царского унтер-офицера до Маршала СССР, став дважды Героем Советского Союза и кавалером ордена Победы. «Только тот народ, который чтит своих героев, может считаться великим», – говорил К. К. Рокоссовский. Эта книга чтит память великого полководца, прославленного военачальника, военного гения, чье легендарное имя стало ИМЕНЕМ ПОБЕДЫ.

Аннотация

Where mankind&rsquo;s history began impacts how our future will end! The biblical answer to the question: Were Adam and Eve real people or just generic references for all of mankind? Explains the connection between original sin and the gospel Emphasizes the importance of Adam and Eve as literal history to young and old alike When you unlock the door to biblical compromise, the door gets pushed open wider with each generation. The Church is now debating the validity of Genesis as actual history, the reality of hell itself, and even if Adam was a real person. Trying to change the biblical time-line to fit with the secular concepts of millions of years has led many in Christian academia to reject the literal interpretation of the Bible itself. Perfect for children, the book helps them discover the truth about the first man and woman, and how their disobedience led to the need for Jesus Christ.
