Emerging from the dusty archives of early radio, "Death Valley Days" stands as a testament to the power of dedication and a well-spun yarn. In 1930, New York Vassar graduate Ruth Woodman, brimming with enthusiasm but lacking first-hand desert experience, took on the challenge of creating a show centered around the untamed wilderness and its hardy inhabitants. Back then, much of the area remained raw and untamed, traversed by more trails than paved roads.Undeterred, Ruth embraced the rugged landscape. Each year, she'd become a desert nomad, trekking to ghost towns, dusty saloons, and rugged campsites on the fringes of Death Valley. Gas station attendants, weathered bartenders, and small-town journalists became her storytelling heroes, their memories and lived experiences the raw material for her narratives. She wasn't afraid to get her hands dirty, delving into old newspapers, exploring dusty museum exhibits, and scouring the West for any tidbit that whispered a forgotten tale.This relentless pursuit of authenticity paid off handsomely. "Death Valley Days" captivated audiences for over two decades, its vivid portraits of the Old West unmatched in their realism and drama. Later, it even crossed the threshold into television, with none other than Ronald Reagan gracing the screen as its host. The show's enduring legacy is a testament to Ruth's dedication, proving that even with no initial desert grit, a thirst for authentic storytelling can carve its own path through history.

The Great Gatsby is a 1925 novel by American writer F. Scott Fitzgerald. Set in the Jazz Age on Long Island, near New York City, the novel depicts first-person narrator Nick Carraway's interactions with mysterious millionaire Jay Gatsby and Gatsby's obsession to reunite with his former lover, Daisy Buchanan. The novel was inspired by a youthful romance Fitzgerald had with socialite Ginevra King, and the riotous parties he attended on Long Island's North Shore in 1922. Following a move to the French Riviera, Fitzgerald completed a rough draft of the novel in 1924. He submitted it to editor Maxwell Perkins, who persuaded Fitzgerald to revise the work over the following winter. After making revisions, Fitzgerald was satisfied with the text, but remained ambivalent about the book's title and considered several alternatives. Painter Francis Cugat's dust jacket art greatly impressed Fitzgerald, and he incorporated its imagery into the novel.

كان شاهداً لجرائم قتل وخطف وابتزاز قام بها متخصصون خبراء عاشوا حياتهم وسط المؤمرات والمكائد. حاولوا التخلص منه، فاتهموه بأنه المسئول عن كل ما حدث. لفوا حول عنقه حبل الاتهام بأنه قاتل مطلوب القبض عليه وتقديمه إلى العدالة وليس مجرد شاهد على الأحداث. لم يجد وسيلة أمامه للنجاة إلا الهرب. وهو ينتقل بين ست دول فى أوروبا وشمال أفريقيا والشرق الأوسط.
اختبأ فى الظلام فإذا بالليل يضيء حوله ويكشف له عن أسرار لم يكن يعرفها وحق لم يكن يدركه. -

Heart of Darkness is a novella written by Joseph Conrad. Before its 1903 publication, it appeared as a three-part series (1899) in Blackwood's Magazine. It was classified by the Modern Library website editors as one of the "100 best novels" and part of the Western canon. The story centres on Charles Marlow, who narrates most of the book. He is an Englishman who takes a foreign assignment from a Belgian trading company as a river-boat captain in Africa. Heart of Darkness exposes the dark side of European colonization while exploring the three levels of darkness that the protagonist, Marlow, encounters: the darkness of the Congo wilderness, the darkness of the Europeans' cruel treatment of the African natives, and the unfathomable darkness within every human being for committing heinous acts of evil. Although Conrad does not give the name of the river, at the time of writing the Congo Free State, the location of the large and important Congo River, was a private colony of Belgium's King Leopold II. In the story, Marlow is employed to transport ivory downriver. However, his more pressing assignment is to return Kurtz, another ivory trader, to civilization, in a cover-up. Kurtz has a reputation throughout the region.
