Описание: I am the island of Niue, a small child that stands up to help the Kingdom of King George. Niue Island Council. The story of tiny Niues involvement in the Great War has captivated people since an account was first published by Margaret Pointer in 2000. In 1915, 160 Niuean men joined the New Zealand Expeditionary Force as part of the Maori Reinforcements and set sail to Auckland and then Egypt and France. Most had never left the island before, or worn shoes before. Most spoke no English. Most significantly, they had no immunity to European disease. Within three months of leaving New Zealand, over 80 per cent of them had been hospitalised and the army authorities withdrew them. Margaret Pointer became involved in research to trace the lost story of Niues involvement in World War I while living on the island in the 1990s. The resulting book, Tagi Tote e Loto Haaku: My Heart is Crying a Little, was published in 2000. Her research has continued since, and Niue and the Great War contains much new material together with new photographs. This moving story has now been set in a wider Pacific context and also considers the contribution made by colonial troops, especially coloured ones, to the Allied effort.

Описание:

William "Rooster" Brown is new in town. No family. No money. No prospects. And his first order of business is to kill the waitress who spurned his awkward advances.

But what starts out as the worst decision of his life leads to the best thing that ever happens to him-when his plan is interrupted by two thieves who are attempting to rape a young woman at the same truck-stop.

Rooster comes to the girl's rescue and shoots her attackers dead, launching him into the unexpected role of town hero.

The girl's grateful father stands up for Rooster and sets him on a path that could lead to a life he never imagined possible.

But not everyone is a fan. Sheriff Bill Hickey is suspicious from the start, when he notices the carved notches on the gun that belonged to Rooster's grandfather, a notorious outlaw.

One Lucky Fool tells the winding tale of a young man struggling under the weight of his family history as he tries to forge a new way for himself. With some fingers pointing toward his future and others toward his past, can Rooster figure out where to plant his feet today?
