When the bubble bursts : surviving the Canadian real estate crash / by MacBeth, Hilliard,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Starting in 2008, investors upset by the stock market collapse started to see real estate as a "safe haven" investment. While talking with numerous clients, investment manager Hilliard MacBeth realized that Canadians have far too much of their investment capital and savings tied up in expensive real estate when better opportunities are about to appear in other asset classes. He argues that Canada is in the midst of a real estate bubble, and there will soon be a crash in house prices. What can Canadians do to prepare financially for retirement and take advantage of the "once in a lifetime" buying opportunity that will follow the bubble bursting? All these answers can be found in this newly updated edition of When the Bubble Bursts."--

Red trail : a Ralph Compton western / by Shirley, John,1953-; Compton, Ralph.;
An outbreak of hostilities with Comanches has disrupted the usual trail routes. But Mase Durst must get his cows from his Texas ranch to the railway up in Wichita, Kansas, or face losing his land, which the bank is fixing to foreclose on. He's forced to take his herd on a little-used route called the Red Trail--little used for good reasons. It's a tough trek: dangerous, narrow, and fraught with banditry. Along the way, Durst and his men face numerous obstacles thrown up by Mother Nature, cattle rustlers and crooked lawmen. But even their safe arrival in Wichita will offer no relief if he can't make it home in time to save his ranch from the bank--and his wife from the predations of their rapacious neighbor.

Wings : the story of a band on the run : an oral history / by McCartney, Paul,author.; Widmer, Edward L.,editor.;
As the Sixties came to a close, Paul McCartney was faced with the daunting prospect of being a solo artist for the first time. Wings' ascension to the top of the charts with classic albums including Band on the Run, Venus and Mars and At the Speed of Sound, along with the band's stadium-filling live shows, would prove to critics and fans that not all great acts are impossible to follow. Drawn from over 500,000 words, based on dozens of hours of interviews with McCartney and numerous key players in the band's orbit, this book weaves together the improbable trajectory of Paul McCartney and his newly formed band (featuring co-founding members Linda McCartney and Denny Laine) across the technicolor 1970s until their dissolution in 1981.
