True Crime - History Occam's Razor and the Event's of November 22, 1963 A seemingly insignificant element of the crime scene suggests that the fatal head shot did not follow the trajectory assumed by the Warren Commission and others. This crucial observation demonstrates how a single shooter was likely responsible, not only for the shots fired from the sixth floor of the schoolbook depository, but also for the witness accounts of gunfire from the area known as the grassy knoll. This entirely new approach to the subject goes on to demystify the appearance of the puff of smoke that reportedly...

Alpine
ISBN: 9780738578941 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Alpine was born a railroad town, but long before the whistle of the steam locomotive broke the silence of Alpine Valley, the nearby spring was a favored campground for prehistoric nomads and later for Spanish explorers and freighters along the Chihuahua Trail. When the Southern Pacific unfurled its line down from Paisano Pass in 1882, landowner Thomas Murphy saw opportunity and platted the town. In 1887, Alpine was chosen as the county seat, and with the opening of Sul Ross Normal College in 1920, the town became the academic hub of the region. Following a decade of prosperity, the Great...

Here the land assumes a certain primacy, defined not by the ephemera of plants and animals but by the very bedrock that rises far above the silvery flow of Pinto Creek— looming masses that break the horizon into a hundred different vistas. Yet, over time, people managed to survive and sometimes even thrive in this harsh environment. In the...
