Around the year 1740, 22-year-old Archibald McCollogh left his home in Northern Ireland, boarded a ship and sailed to a new life in America. In these pages we follow the lives of seven generations of McCullohs, starting with Archibald's 4,000-mile life-long journey across the ocean, through devastating Indian attacks in Pennsylvania's frontier, down the Shenandoah Valley on the Great Wagon Road to his final home in Lexington, Kentucky. His son George works as a tanner and then a Ranger leading pack trains through the wilderness of western Pennsylvania. George's son John, a shoemaker, lives his entire life in a mountain valley called Little Cove. John's daughter Mary Ann lives a mysterious life in this valley, giving birth to two children out of wed-lock and eventually marrying a successful ironmaster who may yet prove to be the father of these children. Her son, Amos, becomes a successful farmer, lives through the turmoil of the confederate invasion of southern Pennsylvania, and makes a supernatural appearance upon his early death. Amos's son William makes an extraordinary 700-mile journey on foot from Pennsylvania to western Illinois, loses a wife and six children, helps start an orphanage, becomes a minister, raises ten children with his second wife, loses everything he owns and finally, near the end of his life, returns to Pennsylvania, not far from where he first began. The author has spent hundreds of hours and has traveled thousands of miles to gather the facts, photos and details presented here. Fully indexed and filled with photos, maps and illustrations, this book brings this McCulloh line's story together like no other.

Mormonland is the raw confessional memoir of a Mormon boy who grew up in a small western town and pursued the Hollywood dream. He devoted five decades of his life to a church filled with highly questionable doctrine, troubling temple rituals, and never-ending expectations. His story may not differ from a lot of other Mormon boys, except for the fact that he's telling it.

In this research, I questioned if the education system in Trinidad & Tobago caters to students with special education needs. I begin with a brief description of the history of the education system in the country as a means of better understanding how we progressed to our present position. I then began seeking answers to if our disabled students' human rights are being violated.
