"A rollicking adventure!" The trilogy is now complete. I plan to publish Jack: Book 3, by August 1, 2017 as well as a separate volume with all three parts. Until then enjoy Books 1-3 here on Wattpad. I completed the trilogy on May 30, 2017. The cover (left) is a possible cover for Jack 3. Book 3 opens with Jack and his companions in control of the slave ship, The Helena, renamed The Midnight Raider, having tricked the pirates and slave traders that were chasing them after they stole the ship. Jack has ordered the Helena's captain - kidnapped in Cuba - imprisoned below deck. Despite his friend Jeremy's reluctance to go along with him, Jack invites the captain to help them and the 110 now-freed slaves to sail back to Senegal and Guinea in West Africa to return the ex-slaves home. Captain Pendleton agrees. But will this slave trader - whose dream is to buy the Helena to make enormous profits blockade-running when the American Civil War begins - keep his word? Jack believes he can continue to outsmart the captain. He also believes the captain wants to do the 'right thing'. It's a combination of trust and mistrust but Pendleton may be the only person aboard who has the longtime experience crucial to crossing the middle Atlantic Ocean to Africa. Jack and Jeremy have another problem: Two young Jamaican women are aboard ship and are scheming to make sure that they stay together with Jack and Jeremy who plan on leaving them back at their homes after returning from the African mainland.

Forging Ties (Ties, Book 3) | ✓ by overlordpotatoe

It's a time of rebuilding and change, but for some it's time for a long overdue holiday. Hamish, Duran, Slone, and Cookie head out on an adventure to see the world and make new friends in their own special ways. One thing's for sure, nothing could possibly go wrong.

The first agricultural revolutions began about 10,000 BCE in Egypt, China and Mesopotamia (Iraq). Trading require counting and the first written language; in general use by 2600 BCE. The first epic poem, Gilgamesh, was written in cuneiform. The first alphabet assigned Semitic characters to Egyptian hieroglyphs about 2000 BCE. It was adopted by the Greeks about 800 BCE and later modified for the Roman Latin alphabet. The Chinese built the first blast furnaces (using piston-bellows driven by waterwheels) and cast iron farm tools and weapons were common by 500 BCE. Austronesians sailed outrigger canoes over 6,000 kilometers from Taiwan to reach New Zealand from about 3000 BCE. About 100 BCE the Malays of Indonesia traded between China, India and Africa in sailing ships carrying 1000 people and a 260 ton cargo. The Greek navigator, Pytheas, sailed to the north Atlantic about 325 BCE where he recorded polar ice, the Midnight Sun and lunar tides. The Roman Prefect of Egypt (26-24 BCE), Aelius Gallus, noted 120 trading ships leaving Myos Hormos for India. WHO THE HELL ARE WE? is a series of short books and videos describing the evolution of civilization. Almost everyone on the planet is five times wealthier than their ancestors only 50 years ago. This astonishing phenomenon has also improved health, education, and longevity. The cause; an explosive growth in ideas and productivity. It began when we learned to control fire, evolved articulate speech and stumbled onto the way to create infinite wealth; free trade. The discovery of agriculture made us richer but we also learned how to destroy wealth. Great civilization grew up but then disappeared leaving only incredible ruins and ideas. Later books detail some of the ideas and developments that increased the average life span from about 40 years to more than 80 and the average world income from less than $3 to more than $33 per person per day (and to $140 per day in some countries).

Red Vs Blue season 11 male oc by Garydeansonic

The assholes you all know are shipwrecked. They have to try and survive and deal with there normal hilarious trouble. They also have a giant pet killer robot that could kill them all.

we all knew the risk. Looking back at it now it was something we shouldn't have done. Now, what I was looking at was full explanation why. The dead bodies floating in the water washing up to the beach's shore the cruise ship burning in the distance sinking into the Caribbean Sea. I guess we should have just left that day to rest. It all started in the slums and that's where it ended

Minority's Voice: A Novelette by MiaSword

On December 16, 1773, the colonists were sick of the British rule. So late at night, they went to the Boston Harbor, boarded the 3 ships, and dumped the tea into the water. This event, commonly known as "The Boston Tea Party," led to the fight for independence in America. The colonists who participated in this event were all white americans. But- what if they weren't?
