It is of vital importance that each individual soul recover this lost sense of sin and to begin the struggle to conquer the deadly sins that threaten his or her salvation. The Manual for Conquering Deadly Sin will help you do just that in your own life. As Fr. Kolinski makes clear, the truest medicine is found in the sacramental life of the church. But, in addition to the graces found in frequent confession and reception of the Eucharist, the Manual for Conquering Deadly Sin will be an indispensable aid in your fight.

I rather anticipate that superficial critics who do not like the argument of this essay will accuse it of pessimism, a charge which perhaps means little more than that they do not like it. If it is called "pessimism" to point out the methods by which men may escape destruction, because men do not care to adopt them, I suppose it must be "optimism" to rush violently and open-eyed down a precipice, and to expect to be saved by a miracle. Certainly such would appear to be the belief upon which human affairs are at present conducted.

This is a detailed biography of the life and adventures of Daniel Boone (1734-1820). Whilst he is often brushed over in American history classes, Boon was an important frontiersman, pioneer, and explorer, who played a decisive role in furthering European settlement in America. He was also a businessman, soldier and politician, taking part in the French and Indian War and contributing to the settlement of modern day Kentucky.

In this biography, John S. C. Abbott focuses on the infamous Scottish sailor turned pirate Captain William Kid.

David "Davy" Crockett (1786–1836) was a celebrated 19th century American folk hero, frontiersman, soldier and politician.
