    发生于1834年的"律劳卑事件",是中国对外关系史上的重要转折,它彻底改变了中英关系的性质,将两国关系置于双方政府层面之上进行交涉,并由此导致了当年的虎门之战和后来1840年的中英战争。如此重要之此一事件以往从未有过深入研究,大多是在相关书籍中被简单提及,而且往往是人亦云亦,以讹传讹,所有的引用、描述及结论都存在严重问题。甚至连伟大的马士也是如此,他在相关此处误引了被人篡改过的一段文字,被人误导和欺骗。本书是有关此一事件的第一部专著,读后给人以精彩、专业、深刻和尖锐的印象。书的专业性体现在它对于史料的引用和研究,在主要问题上都是直接引用原始档案来予以说明和论述,而非如以往那样间接引用,所以更加准确,由此而导致的结论也与以往截然不同,甚至可以说是彻底推翻了以往有关此一事件描述和结论,令人大开眼界。本书深刻之处在于它完美解释了满清王朝与现代中国之间的关联和发展,逻辑清晰,推论有力,对于想要更多了解中国历史和当今中国的人来说,它是必读之物。The event of 1834 is a turning point in the history of foreign relations with China. It fundamentally changed the nature of relations between China and the United Kingdom; the settlement between the British sea-traders and the Chinese authorities failed, which ultimately led to the Battle of Humen and later the First Opium War between China and the United Kingdom in 1840.Such an important event has hardly been studied in-depth; in most cases it is referenced in relevant scholarly publications; however, they just repeat what others say; the references quoted, the descriptions, the conclusions are flawed in many ways. Even as great as Hosea Ballou Morse was, he was deceived by others; consequently, in his publications he cited a passage which was distorted.This book is the first publication to address the event in 1834. It will impress readers with its rigorous use of words. In terms of references, the author uses direct citations and original documents to argue and explain the main question, comparing it with indirect references; this method is much more accurate. As a result, this book contributes to new historical thinking and gives different conclusions, and is an eye opener.This book is rare and valuable; it provides a plausible explanation of the link and development between the Chinese empire and modern China. The logic is clear and strong to support the conclusions. For those who want to know more about Chinese history, it is a must-read.

    A story is a pleasant way to learn something. What is this story trying to teach? Sometimes in life, the only way to achieve a goal is by telling yourself that you are going to keep trying and that you are not going to give up. This lesson can be learned at any age: a three-year-old child in a Montessori classroom trying to master the shoe-lacing dressing frame, or an adult working on a difficult assignment. The Determined Maple Leaf is a story of determination with a happy ending.

    The age-old question has always been, is a child's behaviour based on genetics or environmental factors? That question won't be answered here by O'neal because he is only two years old. O'neal the Observer is a short story about a Black boy who is paying attention to his parents' interests, and also what they are disinterested in, even if they are unaware. Like most children at that age, they are trying to understand a new world, and sometimes what a guardian displays is what a child will receive, and one day mirror themselves.

    "You made your bed, now lie in it, and I hope you go straight to hell..." Before Johnny could finish, he turned his back so his dad could not see his tears of rage.MeadowBrook is a picturesque town with rolling hills and meandering brooks. Weeping willows grace the streams winding through the farmland, and bands of elusive wild horses roam freely around the town's pasture lands. An unsolved missing-person case profoundly affects the citizens of this charming Canadian town. This entertaining story will resonate with any adult age group, engaging the question of whether a stereotype defines us or if we define it. Class of '78 is a nostalgic, twisting journey to a time when fashion, music, crushes and cliques shaped the characters and small-town gossip, rumours, and stereotypes influenced the relationships. In MeadowBrook, everyone knows each other's strengths, weaknesses, flaws, and secrets. The years following graduation reveal how their choices have impacted their struggles and successes. As the ten-year reunion looms, introspection and evaluation of the past become the main focus. Little do they know that reuniting will help them conquer beliefs that have held them back from realizing their self-worth and resolve the decades-long mystery of the disappearance of the town's founding father. Karen Harmon is the author of three award-winning memoirs, Looking for Normal, Where is My Happy Ending?-A Journey of No Regrets, and Fat and Beautiful-A Story of Love, Pain, and Courage. Class of '78 is Karen's fourth book and her first fiction novel.

    "Beard trimming is not for the faint of heart. Those razor-sharp hairs will fly out, hit your eyes, cut through your blouse into your bra and poke your nipples all day long."These words blew my friends away, when I divulged my dislike for beard trimming on our chat site, with them demandingly saying, "You need to write a book!" So get ready, I've spilled the beans!My obsession with scissors and hair was no accident. I had many experiences with them from a young age in the fifties and sixties, with some "hair-raising" situations that many of you may identify with. I was raised on a farm in Saskatchewan, and with this segregation from society, boredom had a way of escalating my need to do anything for excitement. There is a lot to be said about boredom-it pushes you to do and go places you never could imagine . . . the perfect recipe to be a hairdresser, don't you think?Because my life has had lots of twists and turns and ups and downs, you will feel my emotion and humour and be somewhat flabbergasted by what your own hairdresser may be dealing with. I bring a lot to the table, so prepare yourself. You may not agree with everything, but you will agree that this book contains everything we hairy humans should know about this categorically tumultuous trade.It's been a wild, chaotic ride, but one well worth taking! My biggest wish for my readers is to laugh, love, and understand your hairdresser just a little bit better. But for God's sake, don't pi_ _ them off!" Ha-ha!Rhonda E Neff
