Jonathan Goodfellow is an accountant. One day God looked down upon the earth and saw that he was meek and mild and thought that it was a good thing. This was the start of the disruption of Jonathan's quiet life and began the series of misadventures that then took place. Misadventures as varied as being hit on the head by a one legged, one eyed dwarf wielding a golf club, dying, meeting God in heaven and being offered the choice of carrying God's message and reforming the human race or going to hell.Jonathan becomes the new Messiah and makes desperate attempts to convince people of his bona fides. Ranged against him are a number of forces that include The Legal Ruler's Society, a group of lawyers who have been in league with Satan for many years and who are plotting to take over the world in the name of evil when the moment is right.Satan, like God, decides to leave human beings to their own ends and offers the world to the lawyers if they leave him alone to fulfil his twenty-year-old ambition to break one hundred and twenty at golf. Satan put the idea of the game into the heads of the Geordies as a means of driving people mad and getting them to do terrible things to one another. Hell has been converted into a golf course and everyone there must play two rounds a day. No one is allowed to break one hundred and twenty on pain of terrible torture.Along the way Jonathan does make converts. Most of them are the poor and downtrodden, the criminal and the insane. The one exception is his main disciple, Marcie Mabelgrove, chief investigative reporter with the Daily Bugle, and love blossoms in Jonathan's lonely life.In all of the mayhem that takes place, there remains the voice of sanity in the form of Jonathan's two white, albino, Himalayan, dwarf rabbits. Bugs and Thumper have been deputised by God as the communication point for Jonathan, and God has granted them the power to speak to Jonathan. Like all rabbits, Bugs and Thumper are practical and down to earth creatures who are not swayed by the tempestuous events around them.The book reaches its climax in the last battle of good versus evil on earth as the evil lawyers, led by the portly, cigar smoking, cask wine drinking, Jones P. senior, battle a group of aged pensioners on the banks of the Murray River.

Ballad of Steve Biker is the second volume of the Greatest Game series, which recounts an exciting overseas holiday of the Pack, who are friends of the central character Rupertheimer. There is the Englishman Nick Jarvis and Peter Khumalo the Zulu, along with an enigmatic Afrikaner named Hofmeyr, who travel abroad where they meet their future wives. Rupertheimer receives a harsh lesson in Ireland, from the media tycoon Darby O'Gill, while Khumalo falls under the influence of a mysterious motorcyclist named Steve Biker. This alter ego of the famous Steve Biko, has a profound impact on the Pack, especially on young Peter Khumalo who returns home to join the Struggle. Peter Khumalo joins up with his fiery Aunt Willie Khumalo and her husband Matthew, who lead an South African liberation group named AZIPPO, but Peter's liberation struggle ends abruptly at Rupertheimer's wedding. When a series of bizarre events culminate, in a fierce standoff with counterinsurgency forces, where freedom fighter Peter Khumalo surrenders to fearsome police Colonel Kokkenbull. So the Rupertheimer wedding ends with a message of hope for South Africa, that violence will be renounced and democratic negotiations will come about, which portends the pivotal rote that Rupertheimer must play in the future transition to democracy. These inexplicable events in Rupertheimer's life seem to point the way, to the vital contribution he will make to democratic negotiations, because Rupertheimer is destined to become a key player in the 1994 democratic elections. The South African liberal press has covered this historic event extensively, with hastily scrawled cover-ups, but unfortunately for the press there remain the newspaper archives. Where the craven journalistic scepticism is starkly portrayed, which impacted negatively on the transition to democracy, so it was indeed fortunate that our man Rupertheimer was there. To unerringly guide his troubled land, and steer the good ship South Africa to a democratic landing.

In a series of candid vignettes and one poem, Cynthia takes us into her family of origin to revisit her physician parents, whose lives were impacted in unexpected, far-reaching ways by her father's service in World War II, and into her life with them and her two younger sisters, covering several decades. We meet grandparents, lifelong friends, and mother substitutes. Dark family secrets are revealed. Questions are raised. Other tales explore Cynthia's work history in such divergent places as her father's medical office and a seminary. We are with her during the dissolution of two marriages and a nostalgic look back at a high school romance. Always honest, Cynthia tells it like it was-the good, the bad, and the very bad-with feeling and understanding, and eventually forgiveness.

*Includes dozens of pictures *Describes the construction of the Titanic, life aboard the ship during its maiden voyage, the sinking of the ship, rescue efforts, and the discovery and exploration of the wreck *Includes accounts written by passengers, crew members, White Star Line officials, and explorers of the wreck *Includes a bibliography for further reading "I cannot imagine any condition which would cause a ship to founder. I cannot conceive of any vital disaster happening to this vessel." - Captain Edward J. Smith Just before midnight on April 14, 1912, the RMS Titanic, the largest ship in the world, hit an iceberg, starting a chain of events that would ultimately make it history's most famous, and notorious, ship. In the over 100 years since it sank on its maiden voyage, the Titanic has been the subject of endless fascination, as evidenced by the efforts to find its final resting spot, the museums full of its objects, and the countless books, documentaries, and movies made about the doomed ocean liner. Thanks to the dramatization of the Titanic's sinking and the undying interest in the story, millions of people are familiar with various aspects of the ship's demise, and the nearly 1,500 people who died in the North Atlantic in the early morning hours of April 15, 1912. The sinking of the ship is still nearly as controversial now as it was over 100 years ago, and the drama is just as compelling. The Titanic was neither the first nor last big ship to sink, so it's clear that much of its appeal stems from the nature of ship itself. Indeed, the Titanic stands out not just for its end but for its beginning, specifically the fact that it was the most luxurious passenger ship ever built at the time. In addition to the time it took to come up with the design, the giant ship took a full three years to build, and no effort or cost was spared to outfit the Titanic in the most lavish ways. Given that the Titanic was over 100 feet tall, nearly 900 feet long, and over 90 feet wide, it's obvious that those who built her and provided all of its famous amenities had plenty of work to do. The massive ship was carrying thousands of passengers and crew members, each with their own experiences on board, and the various amenities offered among the different classes of passengers ensured that life on some decks of the ship was quite different than life on others. Almost everyone is familiar with what happened to the Titanic during its maiden voyage and the tragedy that followed, but the construction of the Titanic is often overlooked, despite being an amazing story itself, one that combined comfort and raw power with the world's foremost technological advances. Nonetheless, the seeds of the Titanic's destruction were sown even before it left for its first and last journey. Similarly, the drama involved with the sinking of the Titanic often obscures the important aftermath of the disaster, particularly the several investigations conducted on both sides of the Atlantic that sought to figure out not only why the Titanic sank but future changes that could be made in order to protect ships and passengers in the future. In fact, the course of the investigations was interesting in itself, especially since the British and Americans reached wildly different conclusions about what went wrong and led to the ship's demise. The Titanic examines the entire history and legacy of the ship, from its construction to its sinking, as well as the investigations and changes that followed, the discovery of the wreck in 1985, and even the current events surrounding the ship. Along the way, life aboard the Titanic is analyzed through passengers' accounts, as are the tales of survival and death that continue to resonate. Along with pictures of important people, places, and events, you will learn about the Titanic like never before, in no time at all.
