If this book were made into a movie‚ I would choose Viggo Mortensen as the squire. He starred in "The Lord of the Rings" series‚ and I felt that he did a good job. He looks athletics‚ is youthfully handsome‚ and curly hair. "He was embroidered like a meadow bright And full of

ENG.2 5/23/2011 The Road The Road was both a phenomenal book and film. While reading The Road I was both intrigued and interested as to how Hollywood would portray this story‚ and after seeing the movie I was impressed with how closely the film followed the book. Though the book was enticing and unusual the movie quickly surpassed the book in my opinion. Though the movie followed the book closely‚ there were some differences such as the amount of flashbacks the father has‚ the illusion of hope

What is a Country to Do? In recent times‚ the throne of Scotland has been filled with very small men. These so-called sovereigns have abused their God given power to their own pitiful ends instead of using it the way it was meant to. They spend our taxes foolishly so that they can live in splendor‚ chase their enemies to the grave‚ and insure that the common man cannot rise against them. They live in fear of falling from power to the point where any who question them are imprisoned‚ killed

What is the Road Not Taken At first glance when reading Robert Frost’s poem "The road not taken‚" one might think that the traveler is deciding which road to take in hoping to not make bad decisions in life.

It all started in wake of the Caribou Gold Rush. But was it really a war or just a confrontation? I believe that the Chilcotin War was not a war at all‚ but a confrontation between members of Tsilhqot’in people and a work party cutting a road through their territory. The Tsilhqot’in people attacked the road workers because they were trying to protect what was theirs. They were trying to protect their land‚ their people and their way of life. The newcomers did not ask the aboriginals’ permission to

In my opinion‚ Tambu was neither seduced nor brainwashed by the "Englishness". Tambu had grown up in an African society whereby women were fighting for the effects of patriarchal traditions in the history of their culture. Women in Tambu’s society struggled to find their voices in this male dominated world. Tambu did not want to be like one of these African women‚ being trapped in traditional roles and could be nothing more but just a good housewife. She realised at a very young age that perhaps

You see I never really had an actual vacation‚ since my father had been gone for eight long‚ dreadful years.

My father was back home and he was as healthy as a young doctor. It was now summer of 2010‚ and I
