On November 11, 1918, in a railroad car outside Compiegne, France, the guns on the Western Front fell silent and the first World War was declared over. Proclaimed by many historians as the Great War, or the War to End All Wars, the price to be paid for peace at the time was steep and left behind a horrific trail of suffering and death.Soldiers returning home discovered much had changed since their deployment. Indeed, a different America awaited them. The nation was still reeling from the Spanish Flu, a flurry of racial riots and labor disputes punctuated civilian life, and the Great Depression caused profound economic collapse. A decade later, the Second World War would begin.In the midst of such turbulence, runaway Henry Cameron finds a home at a remote Vermont horse farm. He soon discovers a true passion for working with horses and learning the craft of horsemanship from a retired calvary officer.When the calvary officer passes away and bequeaths his entire estate to Henry, the young man is faced with rebuilding the horse farm. His efforts are sculpted by those in his life: a protective pair of caretakers, a wounded World War One soldier, a corrupt sheriff, a gifted horse trainer, and a bitter and revengeful uncle. Each would come to shape the destiny of the horseman Henry Cameron.

Throughout my life, I've witnessed my mother's struggles as well as her healing. I believe my mom's life has been much like the growth of a flower--sprouting from the cold ground, weathering adversity, and blooming into new life.

I'm very proud of my mom! I hope you learn something from her story--I know I have.--Josiah SmalleyMental health professional and cover designer

Hard work and sacrifice do lead to success, but it comes with a price. Living in excess and three defining moments rocked Michael's world. Success could not fill the void in his life, not money, not homes, cars, food, alcohol, nor drugs. The first defining moment is a startling revelation of how living out of control is a path to destruction. This epiphany changed him spiritually from the inside out. The second defining moment was his impetus to change physically. His last defining moment came in November of 2021 during a propane grill explosion, burning both legs. This is a message of hope. No matter what you have done, you can overcome. He wrote this book for you.

It's the year 1817 when a quiet, peaceful town deep within the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina is attacked by a malevolent witch, a witch who will stop at nothing to tear away the people's faith and peace they all once had! It all started with the Edwards family, a peaceful family of farmers, who soon discover the withering of their crops, followed by missing cattle, and soon their youngest daughter goes missing. What started out with the Edwards family started happening to the rest of the town, leaving many to believe a curse has been placed on the Edwards family, and now most of the frightened town blames them! Soon a preacher named Hezekiah, who has experience with dealing with witch hauntings and demonic curses, sets out to help the family while learning many secrets along the way, such as a local witch who lived just outside of the town and the fact that eighteen years ago four elderly witches, who were responsible for many murders and blamed for the disappearing of many children throughout the Appalachian Mountains, were caught and murdered by a mob of vengeful people. And the night they were killed, the main witch left a curse! Could it be that they returned fulfilling their curse? Or could there be someone else lurking and picking up where they left off? So many secrets along the way of a long journey to discover who or where this witch is. A town that once had peace and fellowship with one another is now torn apart.

In the last few years, a considerable amount of invectives have been heaped upon this blessed nation by our own citizens that the USA is a nation with built-in systemic and institutionalized racism. According to the author, nothing could be further from the truth. He came from India, legally, pursued higher education, worked in industry, government and academia and, except for one minor incident in Canada, never encountered any barrier or discrimination based on his ethnicity, religion, country of origin, or the color of his skin in both his professional and his personal life. On the contrary, he was successful beyond his dreams.The book chronicles his leaving India for Canada in the pursuit of higher education and subsequent employment in the various sectors of American enterprise. He met his wife, raised three daughters, and lived the American dream to its fullest as the book describes. It also describes the various technical challenges that he encountered and met in his professional life that lasted over three decades in the US. His financial success enabled him to travel extensively to his native India and keep in touch with the family he left behind and see various countries in Europe. Hence, the many crossing of the Atlantic Ocean as the title of the book implies. It also enabled him to satisfy his love for the mountains, both within the American continent and the mighty Himalayas in the countries of Nepal and Tibet. Those adventures are also chronicled in the book. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on travel as the requisite formalities become more difficult is also alluded to. Now retired, he lives most of the year in a retirement community outside Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where assistance is provided as one ages and spends his winters in a condo in Florida.After his residence in the US, he also helped many of his close relatives to come here. The fact that every one of them is very successful is a further testament to the fairness and nondiscriminatory nature of this great nation. If this book convinces even one individual that this great nation is not a racist one, it would have accomplished its purpose.

As a child, how many times did someone ask you: "What do you want to be when you grow up?" Sounds like a simple question, but all too often, it is a hard question to answer. We think we know what we want to be when we reach adulthood, but the real question we need to ask is this: what does God want us to be? God knows our heart. He knows our passions. He knows all the qualities we have that will help us succeed in life. That's why prayer is so important. Prayer connects us to God. If we go to God in prayer and ask Him to direct our path, He will lead us to places we never dreamed possible!

This book was conceived on a dare from a good friend who was a senior pastor in his congregational church. He challenged me to write him something defending a woman's right to preach the gospel. Within an hour or so, the Holy Spirit spoke to me and said, "Is not God's Word the best defense and offense for any cause or proposed action of a human being?" I knew about 1 Timothy 2:12, which reads in part, "Suffer not a woman to teach." But I had never seen any expository research explaining this text in view of the fact that the Roman Empire was threatening to annihilate all of Christianity, so Paul did not want to further exacerbate the conflict by announcing a strategy for women to circulate the gospel. It is clear that women played a huge role in Paul's plan to spread the gospel clandestinely! So I went about reconciling the competing views of 1 Timothy 2:12 to our duty as Christians to spread the gospel as Jesus enunciated in Matthew 28:19 to "go ye therefore and make disciples of all nations." Secondly, my next task was to make a diligent search of the Old and New Testament of the women who furthered God's plan to protect Israel from its enemies and to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ! There were more women who had served as military leaders, prophetesses, ministers, and political leaders than I had realized! The life and positions of King Deborah, Esther, Ruth, Anna the Baptist, Priscilla, and Phoebe, to name a few, were revealing to the mindset of God and the plan of Paul. A familiar analogy of this book is to ask the question that if a woman was the pastor of a church and her husband was the head deacon, if both were solidly in Christ, what would be the conflict?
