The Stolen One's
The Stolen One's
This book, The Stolen Ones, by Brian E. Hickey Sr., is a book of an alien abduction that happened to a young farm boy from the years between 1700 and 1800.The years of gun fighters fighting in the street and the OK corral. These were the days of saloon girls, steam trains. Women didnt drink or smoke nor were they allowed in the saloon unless they were saloon girls. These were the days of unlawful streets in many small towns. These were the days of the Wild West. This poor unfortunate farm boy doing his job on the farm and trying to keep peace with the Indian tribes around his homestead was abducted by aliens. During the time he spent unwillingly with the aliens, he went through horrible exams and tests of his body. Then he was unwillingly forced by the aliens to do unthinkable things in order to gain his escape and freedom back to Earth. After he fulfilled his duties and jobs, the aliens kept their promise and returned him to Earth. Regretfully, he was left unclothed and two hundred years ahead of his own time. He was found by EMS and the law. He was taken to an emergency room. Later the government took him from the hospital. Later he was updated, trained, and made a government agent who goes through deadly missions. His job caused him a problem of his own. He missed his past loves and life. He worried about his future. This book has some adult matter in it. This book should not be read by small children or those who would not understand the content due to age or disability.

Atlas of the Dragonflies of Britain and Ireland
Atlas of the Dragonflies of Britain and Ireland
This volume contains a complete set of distribution maps, and information on all the resident and more frequent immigration dragonflies in Britain and Ireland. It takes a look at the present and changing status of dragonfly species, provides insight into their distribution, gives descriptions to aid recognition, and summarizes aspects of behaviour and details of habitat. The information for the atlas comes from the Recording Scheme set up at the Biological Records Centre 25 years ago which, apart from deepening our understanding of dragonflies, has focused attention on the need for conservation measures. This book includes important and notable discoveries made in the course of the research, and provides a history of conservation in Britain and Ireland and the context and rationale for future efforts. It is a book which should be of interest not only to amateur naturalists and fieldworkers but also students and professional biologists.
