Country road has always been one of Australia leading premium stockists of apparel and home wares. Country Road began as a small manufacturer but expanded and diversified to become a leading wholesaler/retailer of apparel and home wares in the Australian market.

Highways made a vast contribution on the geographic landscape of America in a multitude of ways. In the past, roads throughout the United States have been neglected since the rise of railroads. The only existing roads that were located outside the cities were farm-to-market roads, which were unpaved, poorly marked. During this time, specifically during the 1910s, automobiles were highly expensive and only bought by the rich. As time continued, automobiles prices began to decrease, which resulted in an increase the amount of cars bought. With a larger quantity of the population owning cars, highways had to be reconstructed. The rebuilding of highways affected the United States because it resulted in society’s ability to travel vast distances

Throughout the novel Three Day Road, by Joseph Boyden, the author takes readers on a journey through the brutality of war and the horrors of trench warfare during WWI. After Oji-Cree Xavier Bird, and his best friend Elijah Whiskeyjack are forced to join the army to help fight for the Southern Ontario Rifles Battalion, their reactions differ. Elijah is a curious young man who is excited to experience the rush of war and adrenaline of trench warfare. He is eager to fight for his country and to eventually come home and be recognized as a brave hero. However, Xavier has a much different perspective on war. He would prefer to stay home and live in the bush with his Aunt Niska hunting moose, and snaring small game. Although, he realizes that he too must go to war to protect his best friend Elijah from the dangers of the battlefield. After being at war for several months, tension begins to build between Xavier and Elijah due to Elijah’s strange liking for killing the enemy, and his strong addiction to morphine. Xavier soon realizes that he and Elijah are not the same people when they left for war several months prior and that their lives will be affected dramatically because of their changing personalities. Eventually, Xavier realizes that his best friend Elijah has become a wendigo and that he must do something to destroy the evil that builds inside of Elijah. Xavier truly finds difficulty with finding a way to appropriately stop Elijah, but knows that sooner or later, Xavier must become the next wendigo killer. Three Day Road is a novel which presents many secondary themes to the reader such as racism, friendship, and addiction. However, the primary theme in the novel is the impact of war on the overall human condition which is presented through the characters Xavier, Elijah and Aunt Niska.

As this article state about the cons of using modern ways of communication and lacking of feelings, I feel that at some extend, I agree with author’s opinion. As Jim Taylor points out, “Kids want to be hugged and touched; they don’t want to be texted. There’s basic need to fill that social bond” (Johnson, Chandra), this explains the truth. We can not always express the feelings of sympathetic and empathetic through texting or phone call. This modern technology did change our lifestyle. In addition, people do use texting or other messaging applications to avoid complications talks instead of talking to another person face to face and also create a language barrier between them.

As a result of this, my preferred method of communication when it comes to friends is texting because it is the fastest and most efficient form of communication. The other day, I was in a group text with a few of my close friends, Katrina, Lauren, and Angelica. Since Katrina’s 18th birthday is coming up, we elaborately planned to see each other in our group text. We are considerably close despite the distance, so our conversations are often easygoing and fun. Our tones are carefree and joyful because we are excited to see one another after such a long time.

This book is one I've been waiting ages for, and as soon as I got my hands on it at ALA, all I wanted to do was start it - TBR be damned. But, I had to hold myself back until now, and let me tell you, the anticipation only made getting my hands on the little beauty a million times more satisfying. Vengeance Road is one of the first Western books I've ever read, and I think it's the first young adult book of its kind - though Walk on Earth a Stranger is also coming out in September (but that is more paranormal than this one). This book was raw and real, and the sheer intensity of the events made it appear as if we were actually with Kate as everything was happening.

The style that The Devil’s Highway is written mirrors the language of fictional adventure novels more than encyclopedias. Urrea creates a mythical fantasy setting, writing, “Dawn came gradually to the Sonoran Desert. With the light, the heat started to fill the land. The promise of fire awakened alien noises all around them (115).” His descriptions of the land are poetic and beautiful; even when describing the extreme heat he uses descriptive language, saying “The next few nights would stall at ninety-four or ninety-five, and the days would explode into triple digits (116).” The language in this book is so colorful that the places and people described seem The risk of writing a nonfiction story as if it is a fantasy creation is that readers
