Philo of Alexandria exercised through his ideas and language a lasting influence on the development and growth of Christianity in the New Testament period and later.
This is the story of a young Royal Artillery officer, Lieutenant Ronald Williams, who was held as a prisoner of war in the Japanese-occupied Dutch East Indies from 1942–45. It is a true account of the alternate horror and banality of daily life, and the humour that helped the men survive the beatings, deprivation and death of comrades. Told through the diary and papers of Williams and others, Jungle Journal includes many cartoons and poems produced by the prisoners, as well as extracts from the original Jungle Journal, a newspaper created by the men under the noses of their guards. Ronald Williams was the ‘editor’ of this potentially fatal ‘publication’. Jungle Journal describes the survival of hope even in desperate straits, and is a testament to those men whose courage and fortitude were tested to the limit under the tropical sun.

Loyalties Part 2 is a continuation of an intricately woven plot of mystery, mayhem, and deception. Bonds have been broken and alliances have been formed, but the remaining question is.......who will they continue to be loyal to?
Andreas Prescod is a disgraced archeologist when he discovers a hidden civilization in Antarctica. It turns out this discovery was predicted by prophecy, but it also initiates conflict between the world above and that in Antarctica. Realities collide as the prophecy, directed by three superior beings worshipped as gods, starts to be fulfilled. That development places Andreas and his wife Eurydice at the center of the impending conflict as a three-way battle begins between gods and two worlds. Third in the First People Saga, Outside the Gates of Eden continues the story of Andreas and Eurydice's struggle to save a world threatened by war and very powerful gods.

In 2020, the world seemed afflicted by a plague, not only medical but political. The Covid pandemic and the virulence and uncertainty in the United States political system felt apocalyptic. And maybe it was. Elliott Graves, a former college president and writer, is now a successful international consultant who works for companies opposed to the environmentalist movement. Unexpectedly, a huge two-headed raven lands on his driveway. It does not take long for him to realize that the raven is a visitor from another dimension, and overnight, Elliott is reluctantly transformed into a crusader. The country is in a low-grade civil war, and he gets dragged into a world of violence. As the events of the day unfold, he finds himself a part of them, but he is also pulled into another world where gods appear to be directing humans' fate. He discovers that he is what they call an aguu, a being created by the supreme god to go between worlds, effecting the will of the gods. Elliott has no preparation for this, and as the two-headed raven drags him from city to city to right wrongs, he becomes a target for the government, which places his family in danger. Soon, he is fighting on three fronts-against the government, against the many creatures he discovers in the fugue world, and against a major company that seeks to make use of his powers. In all this, it is never entirely clear whether he is fighting for good or evil, or whether those categories even exist.
