Meet Tahra Johansson, a pediatric nurse whose engagement comes to a sudden end when her beloved's mother decides she would not 'fit' into the wealthy Blake family. She is left with a two-carat diamond and a house she cannot afford alone. Then there's Mitch Kenyon, a major league baseball player still mourning the death of his baby daughter. He returns from Spring Training to his wife's luxury apartment in New York to find his wife Deidra absent with every bit of evidence of the little girl gone, as if she never existed. Mitch, furious, decides to leave and go back home to Utah. On his way to the mountain town of Deer Valley, he drives into a violent spring snow storm. While trying to help a stranded driver, he breaks his arm, and is taken to a hospital in Salt Lake City where he meets Tahra. Several months later, he is in Jackson Hole, Wyoming and again meets Tahra, whose nursing skills save his life. Soon, they begin a romantic relationship. Can they come together and heal each other's emotional wounds? Can Mitch learn to love again?
Aden, 20 June 1967: two army Land Rovers burn ferociously in the midday sun. The bodies of British soldiers litter the road. Thick black smoke bellows above Crater town, home to insurgents who are fighting the British-backed Federation government. Crater had come to symbolise Arab nationalist defiance in the face of the world’s most powerful empire. Hovering 2,000 ft. above the smouldering destruction, a tiny Scout helicopter surveys the scene. Its passenger is the recently arrived Commanding Officer of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, Lieutenant-Colonel Colin Mitchell. Soon the world’s media would christen him ‘Mad Mitch’, in recognition of his controversial reoccupation of Crater two weeks later.Mad Mitch was truly a man out of his time. Supremely self-confident and debonair, he was an empire builder, not dismantler, and railed against the national malaise he felt had gripped Britain’s political establishment. Drawing on a wide array of never-before-seen archival sources and eyewitness testimonies, Mad Mitch’s Tribal Law tells the remarkable story of inspiring leadership, loyalty and betrayal in the final days of British Empire. It is, above all, a shocking account of Britain’s forgotten war on terror.

A true field of dreams, legendary Mitch Stadium is where Matthew Cisco spent a decade coaching the youth of Ceredo and Kenova, West Virginia about the game of baseball. Along the way, he's created lifelong friendships and coached some pretty colorful characters, while maintaining his family's traditions--all documented in "My Life at The Mitch: A Little League Baseball Story." "This is a tribute to my family," Cisco says. "I wanted them to be aware of what a special time in my life this was. I also wanted to pass a story along to others so they could enjoy the experiences I've had as well as the importance of family and community."
Those who describe Ontario political leaders as bland or boring do not remember the days of Mitchell Hepburn. Premier of the province from 1934 to 1942, Hepburn was impetuous, exuberant, charismatic, creative, and, for a time, wildly successful as a politician. In this biography John Saywell presents the larger-than-life figure in all his contradictions. Here is a richly detailed account of the man, his career, and his times. Born in rural southwestern Ontario in 1896, he was first elected as a Liberal in the federal election of 1926. Four years later he was chosen to lead the Liberals in Ontario, and in a stunning victory in 1934, Mitch drove out the tottering Tory government. These were turbulent times in the province's political life. They saw the deepening of the Depression, the rise of the CCF, impassioned debates over prohibition and separate-school funding, and a bitter strike at General Motors in Oshawa. Mitch was at the centre of it all. Although a lifelong Liberal, Hepburn maintained a stubborn independence. He and Mackenzie King were on a collision course from the beginning. Over time relations between them deteriorated into open hostility and eventually all-out war, a war which Hepburn ultimately lost. The struggle between them weakened the Liberal party and took a toll on Hepburn's health. There were other factors at work on his health, of course. The pressures of politics never kept Mitch from enjoying himself. Saywell describes the late-night excursions to Hull during the Ottawa years, the bull sessions with cronies at Toronto's Kind Edward Hotel, and the numerous extramarital episodes that were never kept very secret. In his private life, as in his public, Mitch was often the victim of his own excesses. Replete with anecdotes and insights, both personal and political, 'Just call me Mitch' is the irresistible biography of an irrepressible character.
The Legacy of Hurricane Mitch

Around the world disaster vulnerability is on the rise. The incidence and intensity of disasters have increased in recent decades with lives being shattered and resources being destroyed across broad geographic regions each year. As it swept across the Honduran landscape, the exceptional size, power and duration of Hurricane Mitch abruptly and brutally altered the already diminished economic, social, and environmental conditions of the population. In the aftermath of the disaster a group of seven socio-environmental scientists set out to investigate the root causes of the heightened vulnerability that characterized pre-Mitch Honduras, the impact of the catastrophe on the local society, and the subsequent recovery efforts. Edited by Marisa O. Ensor, this volume presents the findings of their investigation. The Legacy of Hurricane Mitch offers a comprehensive analysis of the immediate and long-term consequences of Hurricane Mitch in Honduras. Based on longitudinal ethnographic fieldwork and environmental assessments, this volume illustrates the importance of adopting an approach to disaster research and practice that places ?natural trigger events within their political, cultural, and socio-economic contexts. The contributors make a compelling case against post-disaster recovery efforts that limit themselves to alleviating the symptoms, rather than confronting the root causes of the vulnerability that prefigured the disaster.

I live on the streets homeless and only want to find a way out. To know that my life is (important).To only want to be a part of life Not to be forgotten. To leave something behind after I'm gone. To see others enjoy my books, to give something back To let others know about me and how a person living on the streets would write books, that life is tough. So people will have an understanding a wake up call for those who have forgotten the values of what life is about help them find their way. -Mitch Crist, Chattanooga, Tennessee
