Others put him up on a pedestal, and admire him for his courage. My opinion is that Chris was not crazy, he was just a stupid, inexperienced, arrogant boy who wanted to prove he could survive on his…

Rainsford is in awe of all of Zaroff’s possessions and wealth that he has acquired from his military accomplishments. He does not stop to think about the kind of person that Zaroff could…

Adversity is a necessary obstacle that creates a better person once overcome. Everybody has experienced adversity at some point in their lives, and I am no exception. Sitting propped against my bed, a disheveled form of myself, I allowed my paintbrush to stray to the muddy colors for the fifth time, now mingled with salty tears. I resignedly raised my head and sighed, hands dropping down as if paralyzed. Tomorrow. I would look at it again tomorrow. Adversities are thought of extreme…

These tribes were incredibly dispersed across the continent of North America, which resulted in Native Americans populating many different geographical regions. The introduction of settlers from Europe, especially Spain, caused the lives of these Native Americans to transform drastically. When analyzing the history of North American tribes, it is important to…

When I was very little, walking up the trail with a pack on my back and the dog at my side, I would reach out and pull leaves from the bushes and trees. I would tear off corners, smooth the edges, and they would be turned into spaceships, flying across a lush alien world.
