My partner in crime posted a video of her introducing a three day old baby goat to her pup on Facebook the other day. It was filmed in her backyard, so I assumed she got a baby goat. Naturally my first reaction was, if she gets a baby goat I get a baby goat! Do I have any place to keep a baby goat? No, but that didn’t seem to be an issue with me. I would figure out a place to put the baby goat. It’s just like a dog, right? It turned out the baby goat was just visiting, and once I realized that, I didn’t want the baby goat anymore. I mean seriously! Where would I even put a goat? My poor hubby. This is what he has to deal with on a daily basis.

History comes alive!
What was it like to live through the most tumultuous period in recent European history? This book shows how an ordinary German family, the van Dornbachs, goes from prosperity to poverty as Hitler and the Nazi party come to dominate Germany. Beautiful young Grethe leaves for Amsterdam and Paris to live the Bohemian life. Brilliant young Siegfried seeks business success in Kentucky and Shanghai, but comes to a tragic end. Their parents and younger brother, left in Germany, do their best to try to survive the storm.
We experience life in the tobacco industry of Kentucky in the 1920s, see how the student radicals of Paris coped with the movements sweeping through Europe in those years, and how the political and economic events of the 1930s and 1940s devastated everyday life. The shadow that was cast over the whole of Europe affected each member of the Dornbach family in a different way.
An authentic account
Based on and inspired by authentic documents and correspondence brought out of Germany by the author’s father just after Kristallnacht, the pogrom of November 1938, the book provides a searing personalized account of the events of that period.
A happy ending?
Chapters near the end of the book depict life in the south of France under German occupation. As the book ends we find ourselves in wartime London, in a hostel for refugee children who have been able to escape from Europe on a Kindertransport train. The children are in turn affected by the trauma they have undergone having been obliged to leave their homes and families, not knowing if they will ever see them again. The story of one particular child depicts the unique way he copes with his experiences. An epilogue describes subsequent events and what eventually became of the various protagonists.
A vivid account
Anyone who is interested in history, and likes a vivid account of what it was like to live through it, should read this book.

The Real Estate Rookie
by Bob Boog
(2 Reviews)
Genre: Contemporary Fiction | Humor & Satire
FREE for a limited time
When Bob Boog finally escaped his family home and the constant chatter about Real Estate, it was to attend UCLA on a merit scholarship. Finally, he thought, he was free from a business he had no desire to be a part of.
But on one of his frequent ‘laundry visits’ to the family home, he was suddenly presented with a ticket for a Real Estate seminar and felt compelled to attend. It was something which changed his opinions, his plans for the future and his life.
Inspired by the words of Real Estate guru Tom Hopkins, Bob decided to get his licence and studied harder for the exam than he did for some of the ones on his course, passing it on his first attempt.
And then, armed with this new-found ability and a desire to become the ‘Rookie of the Year’ he entered the world he had sworn he never would.
The Real Estate Rookie is the often ridiculous, sometimes absurd and always hilarious account of his journey from someone who would cringe at the very mention of Real Estate, to one who lived and breathed every moment of it.
