Der Geist des Kriegers lebt in seinen Taten. Der junge Steinmetz Thomas Blackstone wird vor die Wahl gestellt: Entweder der Tod durch den Strick – für einen Mord, den er nicht begangen hat.

Although scholars have long recognized that local American parties play an important role in elections, surprisingly little is known about the individuals who lead these typically small, volunteer-based organizations. As Small Power shows, local party leaders influence the electoral process in myriad ways.

Doch Yoyo und Doc Croc ahnen bereits, dass der Prinz übermenschliche Hilfe braucht, um die unlösbaren Aufgaben der bösen Königin zu bewältigen.

Doc Croc und Yoyo können es nicht fassen: Kaum sind sie von dem schrecklichen Bauernhof geflohen, wollen der alte Esel, der krächzende Gockel, der zahnlose Hund sowie die gebrechliche Katze plötzlich Stadtmusikanten werden. Und dabei singen sie so, dass die Milch sauer wird! Auch die Räuber, denen die Stadtmusikanten ein hübsches Ständchen bringen wollen, sind wenig entzückt. Sie sehen in der Gestalt, die vor ihrem Fenster steht, nur ein kreischendes Monster mit acht Augen. Aber was ist, wenn die Räuber ihren Irrtum erkennen?

Eine Neuigkeit aus der Unterwelt: Der Teufel hat eine Großmutter! Sie ist fast so böse wie ihr berüchtigter Enkel, aber sie hat eine ganz große Schwäche: Das Rätsellösen. Gut, dass Yoyo und Doc Croc dies noch rechtzeitig herausgefunden haben, denn sonst hätten sie und ihr neuer Freund Kaspar ihr weiteres Leben in Ameisengröße fristen müssen.

It has long been maintained by many that the North wasn’t complicit in the horrors of slavery.
