Arouse And Beware

by MacKinlay Kantor, Arouse And Beware Books available in Docs, PDF, EPUB, Mobi, Textbook, Kindle Format. Download Arouse And Beware book, This is the story of three strange companions who attain what seldom has been won by any escaping prisoners. Two Yankee soldiers escape from Belle Island, the Confederate Prison, in 1864. As they make their way northward to the Union lines on the Rapidan they are joined by a woman who is fleeing from Richmond. The hazards of their painful flight are tremendous as they travel by night on roads as ominous as the incredible future awaiting them. Starvation and feasting, the swift beat of love, the primitive encounter, the hot cry of triumph—these elements are combined in this bold and valiant tale of sacrifice and high devotion. Arouse and Beware, first published in 1936, was widely praised by the critics and became a best seller. Now with the success of MacKinlay Kantor's great novel, Andersonville, and the enormous interest in the Civil War period, it is being re-issued again to be enjoyed by a whole new generation of readers.

Signal Thirty Two

by MacKinlay Kantor, Signal Thirty Two Books available in Docs, PDF, EPUB, Mobi, Textbook, Kindle Format. Download Signal Thirty Two book, MACKINLAY KANTOR Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Andersonville The Twenty-Third Precinct of the New York City Police Department includes within its boundaries exalted penthouses and reeking slums. The story concerns three men in blue, their loves, their ambitions, their contentions-the cruelty they encounter, the courage they offer, the pity and aid they are able to give. It speeds through the reader's consciousness like a patrol car wailing in midnight traffic. In 1948 the Acting Commissioner of Police, the late Tom Mulligan, authorized MacKinlay Kantor to proceed on all police activities, accompanying the patrolmen in their work. Kantor learned the life of a policeman through first-hand experience. Such priv-ilege had never been granted to a civilian before. But this civilian happened to be the author of Long Re-member, The Voice of Bugle Ann, and many other famous books, as well as the original story of the great motion picture, "The Best Years of Our Lives." Thunder of feet on sagging stairways; a yell from behind a locked door; tears and oaths and-worse- the stony agony of women who stare in silence... The radio voice of CB declares flatly: "Two-Three Precinct. The address...on the roof...proceed with caution..." Is it rape, suicide, assault? Or merely a kitten cry-ing from its trap in a drainpipe? Or do we meet the glare of a razor, the stab of gunfire in a hall? Our fingers squeeze the siren button. This is a Signal Thirty-two...
