      -- Seventeen seventy-six.
      By McCullough, David G
       c2005., Simon & Schuster Call No: 973.3 M133n    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Summary Note: Based on extensive research in both American and British archives, 1776 is the story of Americans in the ranks, men of every shape, size, and color, farmers, schoolteachers, shoemakers, no-accounts, and mere boys turned soldiers. And it is the story of the British commander, William Howe, and his highly disciplined redcoats who looked on their rebel foes with contempt and fought with a valor too little known. But it is the American commander-in-chief who stands foremost -- Washington, who had never before led an army in battle.

      -- Six twenty man
      By Baldacci, David
       2022., Adult, Grand Central Publishing Large Print Call No: NEW MYS Fic Bal    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Summary Note: Every day without fail, Travis Devine puts on a cheap suit, grabs his faux-leather briefcase, and boards the 6:20 commuter train to Manhattan, where he works as an entry-level analyst at the city's most prestigious investment firm. In the mornings, he gazes out the train window at the lavish homes of the uberwealthy, dreaming about joining their ranks. In the evenings, he listens to the fiscal news on his phone, already preparing for the next grueling day in the cutthroat realm of finance. Then one morning Devine's tedious routine is shattered by an anonymous email: She is dead. Sara Ewes, Devine's coworker and former girlfriend, has been found hanging in a storage room of his office building, presumably a suicide, prompting the NYPD to come calling on him. If that wasn't enough, Devine receives another ominous visit, a confrontation that threatens to dredge up grim secrets from his past in the Army unless he participates in a clandestine investigation into his firm. This treacherous role will take Travis from the impossibly glittering lives he once saw only through a train window, to the darkest corners of the country's economic halls of power-where something rotten lurks. And apart from this high-stakes conspiracy, there's a killer out there with their own agenda, and Devine is the bullseye.

      By David, Michel, 1944-
       2007., Hurtubise HMH Call No: FR Fic Dav    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Series Title: Amours interdites   Volume: tome IIISummary Note: Le printemps 1967 s'annonce et avec lui souffle un vent nouveau qui fera virevolter le destin de plusieurs des habitants de Saint-Jacques-de-la-Rive. L'heure est au bouleversement des mœurs et des valeurs. Ce que l'on nommera plus tard la Révolution tranquille s'est bel et bien installée, malgré les répliques acerbes du curé Savard, à qui Étienne Fournier et les autres membres de la fabrique répondront sur le même ton. Le maire, Côme Crevier, ne sera pas en reste, incarnant dorénavant l'autorité dans son village. Alors que tous les regards sont fixés sur Montréal et son exposition universelle, les jeunes adultes des familles Veilleux, Fournier, Hamel et Tremblay sont appelés à faire des choix. Bataille de coq, déception amoureuse, emplois prometteurs, grossesse honteuse, promesse de mariage, émancipation, perte d'enfant, tous sont emportés par le tourbillon de la vie. Nostalgiques devant tous ces changements, la génération de leurs parents se réfugie dans les souvenirs. Étrangement, la relation chaotique qu'entretiennent Bertrand Tremblay et d'André Veilleux leur rappelle celle, aussi houleuse, de leurs grands-pères Eugène et Ernest.

      By Attenborough, David, 1926-
       2018., Quercus Call No: 590 A883a   Edition: First paperback.    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Summary Note: "In 1954, David Attenborough, a young television presenter, was offered the opportunity of a lifetime--to travel the world finding rare and elusive animals for the London Zoo's collection, and to film the expedition for the BBC for a new show called Zoo Quest. This is the story of those voyages. Staying with local tribes while trekking in search of giant anteaters in Guyana, Komodo dragons in Indonesia, and armadillos in Paraguay, he and the rest of the team contended with cannibal fish, aggressive tree porcupines, and escape-artist wild pigs, as well as treacherous terrain and unpredictable weather, to record the incredible beauty and biodiversity of these regions. Written with his trademark wit and charm, Adventures of a Young Naturalist is not just the story of a remarkable adventure, but of the man who made us fall in love with the natural world and taught us the importance of protecting it--and who is still doing so today"--
