Ted Strong's Motor Car Or, Fast And Furious
Ted Strong's Motor Car: Or, Fast and Furious by Edward C. Taylor is an adventure novel that blends the classic Western genre with the emerging technology of the early 20th century. In this story, the hero, Ted Strong, faces new challenges involving motor cars-a modern innovation at the time. Ted, a skilled cowboy known for his bravery and resourcefulness, becomes involved in a high-stakes race or contest, combining his traditional Western skills with the fast-paced world of automobiles. The novel explores themes of adapting to change, as the old frontier lifestyle clashes with the rise of modern technology. Ted's mastery of the motor car symbolizes his ability to navigate this transition while maintaining his integrity and moral clarity. As in Taylor's other works, the story is action-packed, with clear distinctions between good and evil, and Ted's heroism driving the plot. Ted Strong's Motor Car provides readers with a unique, action-filled adventure that reflects the changing landscape of America at the time.

Ren says he's in love, but Colin knows better. Sure, he can't remember much about how it all began. But he remembers dancing at a club he and Ren were too young to dance in. He remembers the boys who harassed them on their way home. He remembers a ghost emerging from the trees, and a white hand reaching for Ren through a thick fog. What Colin can't remember is what happened next. Only two things are clear to him: Ren is different now, and the new guy vying for his heart is not who he claims to be.

Meanwhile, Tommy's best friend, Pel, is also going to his first tournament, and using his dad's old baseball glove is a punch-in-the-gut reminder that he's no longer here. Or, as Ma says, is he?
