Photos and maps for this edition of the book are in black and white. A color version is available and the ebook is a reproduction of the color version. Organ Mountains- Desert Peaks National Peaks National Monument is located in Do a Ana County in southern New Mexico. It covers close to 500,000 acres of the Chihuahuan Desert. Closest to Las Cruces are the fantastic spires of the Organ Mountains that rise close to a mile above the Rio Grande valley and the Tertiary volcanic cauldron of the Do a Ana Mountains. Though surrounded by desert grasslands and shrubs, the Organ Mountains are high enough to have small areas of pine and fir forest. There are three wilderness study areas within these units.The largest unit of OMDPNM contains much of both the Robledo Mountains and the Sierra de las Uvas, as well as parts of several smaller ranges. This is a land of steep peaks of both sedimentary and volcanic origin. Here, in the home of the Apache and the ancient Jornada Mogollon peoples, hidden rock art sites abound along side historic ranches, the Butterfield Trail, and World War II bombardier targets. Within this unit are the Las Uvas WSA, Robledo WSA and Prehistoric Trackways National Monument .To the southwest of Las Cruces is the remote volcanic landscape of the West Potrillo Mountains with cinder cones, volcanic maars, a shield volcano and lava flows. The steep igneous peaks of Mount Riley and Mount Cox and the intriguing overturned folds of the sedimentary East Potrillo Mountains are contained here also.Outside of the few official trails in the Organ Mountains, this is not a monument easily and safely explored. This book will take visitors to places that few people, even those who have lived in the area all their lives, ever see. Hopefully, it will give insight to even the most seasoned hiker, the challenges involved in negotiating this desert landscape. Many of the hikes are off trail and utilize abandoned roads, livestock and wildlife trails, and arroyo beds. Other hikes are completely cross- country. The sub-text throughout is urging the user to get out and explore, choosing their own destinations and pathways.

In 1773, John Frederick Whitehead and Johann Carl Büttner, two adolescent Germans, were placed on board the same ship headed to colonial America. With few options in Germany, each had been recruited by the labor contractors known popularly as soulsellers—men who traded in human cargo. On arrival in America they were sold to different masters, and, years later, each wrote a memoir of his experiences. These two autobiographies are valuable historical records of immigrant attitudes, perceptions, and goals. Despite their shared voyage to America and similar condition as servants, their backgrounds and personalities differed. Their divergent interpretations of their experiences provide rich firsthand insights into the transatlantic migration process, work and opportunity in colonial America, and the fates of former bound servants.Souls for Sale presents these parallel accounts—Whitehead's published for the first time—to illustrate the condition of German redemptioners and to examine the religious, economic, familial, and literary contexts that shaped their memoirs. The editors provide helpful introductions to the works as well as notes to guide the reader.

Charles Darwin pointed out that the future evolution of mankind cannot happen through the continuation of the "survival of fittest" ideology. It lies in the courage to stand up like the first animal did and move in a vertical dimension, whereas developing kindness, compassion, and empathy are the hallmark of evolution and truly an inward revolution. This goal can be achieved by delving deeper into ourselves through the simple process of meditation and mindfulness. In this book you will learn the pathway to your inner vastness (i.e., Samadhi, Enlightenment or the "Mercury space") and gain answers to becoming "Souls From Mercury."

The beginning of the twentieth century evolved out of an era of Freethinking atheists and agnostics who challenged the Protestant hegemony of the day. Key among these mavericks was author and filmmaker Rubert Hughes, uncle to Howard Hughes. In 1922, Hughes published Souls for Sale, his wickedly playful satire of the Bible belt and Hollywood, offering a mischievous snapshot of the film industry as it struggled against a conservative Zeitgeist. The novel follows the prodigal adventures of a clergyman's daughter as she stumbles into the movie industry and finds it to be a new and liberating moral universe. Hughes's adaptation of his sly work challenged the religious hierarchy of his day, but ultimately fell by the wayside, even with the support of Hollywood icons like Eric von Stroheim and Charlie Chaplin. Souls for Sale offers a glimpse into the emerging Jazz age of moviemaking against the backdrop of a country moving from its traditional roots into the kinetic ways of Hollywood.
