"Keep The Peace At All Cost," was a deep-seated conviction held by a soldier who had gone through hell and back in World War One. He was a brave machine gunner who carried out orders as he witnessed the worst of man's inhumanity to others. This is a must-read for peace-loving readers
What would you do if you woke up one morning to find yourself in hell, disguised as the church world? Fatherless is the riveting saga of how God used a deeply embedded love for praise and worship to revive a strong-willed visionary and enable her to see that His unconditional love and fatherhood transcends any measure of conditional human love.
This book recounts Annette Jackson's North Woods experiences during the 1930s when she, her husband, and their children lived in a small cabin on the shore of Umsaskis Lake. Jackson, an avid sportswoman and nature lover, writes of hunting, fishing, campfire cooking, and the sounds of the wilderness through the seasons. She visits trappers and woodsmen, and tells what it's like to sleep on a bed of pine boughs under the stars that shine on the legendary Allagash. This new edition expands on Jackson's original, including not only new photographs, author biography, and foreword, but also new material from Jackson and revisions she made following its original publication.

For what is food but the greatest expression of joy and hurt in the world, Annette Januzzi Wick writes in this blending of history, memoir, and cooking. In response, readers are taken to the cherished place where her Italian ancestors and immigrant grandparents meet her mother's recipe binders written by hand-the family table. Three decades following Italy's 1861 reunification and subsequent fallout, members of four Italian families, two in Abruzzo and the others in Calabria, cross the Atlantic Ocean. In America, they work the coal mines, railroads, and steel mills. They establish shoe stores and bakeries, churches and social clubs. Along the way, they face poverty and tragedies, Mafia temptations and labor recruiters, knowing that forging ahead is their means to survive. In Lorain, Ohio, these dynamisms finally collide. What does food signify on their journey? What does it mean to the father left behind in Calabria, who writes to his shoemaker son in the States, "if not for you, your mother and I would be beggars"? To the first-generation Italian American mother who holds tight to tradition, annotating recipes di dolci with commentary like, "my mother's recipe, use this one"? And to her daughter, the author, as she touches down on Italian soil to consume abundant, rustic meals prepared with love by newly discovered cousins? When ancestors disappear, die, or declare themselves missing, food is the impetus for subsequent generations to gather at the family table and become something Italian again.
As you read this manuscript, remember that I am a Black woman who went through many challenges in life. I have faced prejudice. I encountered it from both the Black race and the White race. I re-emphasize though that I experienced prejudice more from the Black race - my Black race - than from the White race.Remembering that I was a kid who hated school one of my former teachers found it hard to believe one day that I was in college, even though I was thirty years old. However, I tell all that I converse with that you can't judge a book by its cover. You have to look inside.
