He who knows when he can fight and when he cannot, will be victorious. --- Sun Tzu

The Nexus Volume Three are remastered classics that engage their readers with insights into their own lives which both inform and entertain.

Each book in The Robin Hood Factor series is related to various elements of the Legends of Robin Hood and his history as a role model for countless generations. The Flames category within this series features works from the middle third of the Nineteenth Century through first third of the Twentieth Century ----- One hundred years that shaped contemporary American society and government.

Volume Three of the series focuses on two works of Mark Twain and one by a forgotten domestic sciences expert (Mrs. Peter A. White).

Throughout the Twain entries in Volume One, Robin Hood is a role model whose legend influences the behavior and goals of the main characters. Tom adopts, or tries to adopt, some of Robin's less than reputable acts out of the context of the reasons that prompted them and without considering the outcome that could be expected of those often ill-informed acts.

Tom Sawyer's romantic interest, Becky Thatcher, was on the cusp of her preparations for adulthood. We included a remastered version of The Kentucky Housewife ---- A popular cookery during the period of Tom's and Becky's youth --- to provide a glimpse into the feminine side of society.
