Betsy and Catherine: An Uncommon Friendship
A Revised and Revisited Edition
Helen Gailey
About the Book
Set in eighteenth-century London, England. This fictional novel touches on the life of the upper crust and those who served them. As they both come together, foolish choices and harrowing consequences take two women—one an aristocrat and the other her servant—into a storm of trial, scorn, and tribulation. Stripped of title, recognition, and value, one wonders who the heroine really is, Catherine or Betsy? Catherine repeatedly asks, “How will Lord Edward find us?” A twisted and perverse judge condemns these two women to the Australian colonies. What is his motivation? Why would he want to hurt two women he’d never seen before? When everything about her life and station no longer has meaning, tears flow for Catherine. What has she done? Her foolishness has bought shame both on herself and her dearest friend, Betsy. How can she go on if they are parted? As Betsy looks back in time, her memories share love, concern, and deep anxiety. As she looks forward, she questions, “Am I worthy of kindness above my station?”

During a terrible storm, Audrey crashes through the old town bridge. Audrey is pulled from the wreck and is transported to the local hospital where she weaves the threads of her tortured childhood with the trials and triumphs of her new life.

Audrey also confronts her troubled home life, where after the mysterious death of their mother, James and Audrey endure an emotionally void home.
She also remembers her happier moments of lazy summers by the river, or snuggling in the hayloft with Frank, who becomes an invisible vessel for her ravings, to find peace in her tumultuous life.
Yet, Audrey must remember her unspeakably horrific relationship with Struan.About the Author

Then and Now
A Series Of Biographical Essays Portraying Changes In Culture Over Nearly A Century
Jo Ellen Oliver
About the Book
Sexual mores have changed drastically in my 84 years of life, as well as attitudes about family life, race and religion. I hope to explore changes in attitudes over my life span. This is not a research paper. I taught freshman English in two universities, where the students were required to document carefully. I don’t want to do that anymore. I may get a date or a name wrong. Some names I changed on purpose, to avoid embarrassing the children or grandchildren of people who behaved badly. Instead of factual research, I want to explore emotions and attitudes as they changed over the years. Why are emotions so important? We have just held a very divisive election. We are divided by politics and social mores. Yes, it is better if our emotions are grounded in actual facts; our recent election proved how dangerous feelings are when fed by lies, so I have tried to be as factual as my memory allows, but in the end, our behavior is shaped by how we feel.

I Believe in the Holy Spirit?
Arthur Deegan
About the Book
Saints and church leaders have stated that the Holy Spirit is the forgotten Person of the Blessed Trinity. We are not sure of who He is or what He does, or what we really believe about Him. The author here shares what may be considered a list of the Spirit’s attributes. He describes in detail the work of the Holy Spirit as Creator of life, as Consoler, as Protector of the Church. He encourages the reader to take comfort in recognizing that Jesus sent the Spirit as “another friend” to His followers. The intent is to help individuals and bible study groups to see more clearly what the Spirit means to our daily life. At the end of each chapter, there is a brief conversation with the Holy Spirit in the belief that the best way to deepen any relationship is one-on-one conversation.
About the Author
“Art” Deegan has had three careers. First, he studied theology as a professed religious seminarian with the Society of Mary (Marist Fathers), but left before being ordained a priest. Second, he earned a Master’s Degree and Doctorate in Business Administration, taught at the University of Michigan and had a successful consulting career specializing in strategic planning and Management by Objectives. Third, upon retirement he has authored several books in the genre of spiritual development, including The Bread of Life Discourse, The Appearances of the Risen Christ, The Hidden Life of Mary, and now I believe in the Holy Spirit? Along the way he spent three years as an officer in the Army’s Counter Intelligence Corps, and raised a family with his beloved wife of sixty one years, Patricia.

God and Human
Gregory L. Booth
About the Book
This book is a work which I started some years ago. It was compiled into the form which it is now. This book is about man’s true enemy; Evil.
I hope this book will be a serious message that may evangelize any person who will read it. My hope is it will stir anyone’s mind to ask questions people always have when searching for answers which trouble their lives. While investigating the information in this book, by doing the research in the reference section of this book; it may help in the understanding of what is written in this book: it may clear up some of those questions.
This book investigates the power evil has in the lives of people. Evil is one of Gods spiritual creations. This evil is present with man either dwelling in the mind or expressed by the presentations which men see and hear through their daily lives. It is the result of the fallen nature of man.
Many people are wondering why “this” is; (whatever that may be) happening to me. This is my attempt to show there is an enemy which is very capable of messing up anyone’s life. The good news is; there is someone that desires to make a way for you to be delivered from attacks in your life by taking you through whatever the enemy (the Devil) can throw at you. Without the help of God no one can overcome the whiles of the enemy to your soul.
The Gospel of Jesus; that being what he brought into the world through the teachings and healing which he did, as well as casting out evil spirits, and teaching his disciples to be able to do all the things which he did under the anointing of his Spirit. Jesus also paid a price for making a way for all men that would believe in him to have everlasting life through salvation. This price was paid on the cross by being falsely accused of sin which requires death to all who sin; Jesus was nailed to a cross and died to pay for the sins of the world. Again the good news is that the grave could not hold him, as he rose up from the grave three days later, and again ministered to his disciples. Jesus was also seen
of many people, and rose up into the heavens to be with the father and to intercede for our salvation. -
