Giveaway: Against All Odds

7 Mar

I will be giving away a copy of John Milton Langdon’s historical coming-of-age novel, Against All Odds.  Leave a comment on this post to enter to win.  The winner will be chosen by Random Number Generator.    Giveaway will run through March  18 when I will post my review.  Good Luck!

Step back in time – it’s the Victorian era, when Great Britain is at the forefront of industrial development.  Based loosely on fact, author John Milton Langdon weaves a tale of romance and adventure on the high seas. Against All Odds describes the early years of an average man.  Although he is born into humble circumstances, he shows how a combination of perserverance and intelligence, aided by a little good fortune, can help any child overcome the disadvantages of lowly birth status and a poor education.  If you long for a sense of wonderment in life, read this first volume of a set of four and discover how Jason Smiley Stewart transforms from callow village boy to a ship’s officer in Volume 1 of Jason Smiley Stewart – My Life Story.

    […] Well that’s easy, $160 worth of books!  There are never any specific titles I look for — I get those online.  But the hunt is on in a bookstore for authors I have heard about, new-to-me authors, and tantalizing covers!  Because you gave me $80 means I can spend double.  It’s an English major math thing!  Click on the icon below to check out how others would spend your money!  Also check out my giveaway.
