The Story Of A Man
Marvin A. Hayes
About the Book
The Story Of A Man is a collection of poems that express emotions of love, pain, laughter, wisdom and self-reflection. Poetry has always been a passion of mine and it later became the avenue to express the memory of the comings and goings of my existence. This is the reason why I chose the title, “”The Story Of A Man.”” Many of the poems were written during my years in undergrad. My college years came and went; however years later I contemplated publishing them. It was then I decided to begin the journey to publish the story of my life.When thinking about the book cover and what I wanted to express to the reader, I chose to use my drawing of Muhammad Ali. Ali is one of my favourite hero’s and a poet himself. In fact the first poem in the book is about Muhammad Ali, a man with an amazing story of struggle and triumph. I selected his picture in hope of attracting the attention of readers who understand each person has an individual story. Just like Ali we all too may experience struggles, pain, and triumph. This book also includes photos that show that my life has been very full.
The photos in the book include pictures of my wife of 50yrs. Mrs. Geraldine Elaine Robinson Hayes, and our legacy which includes my two older children and our five children which makes for 30 grandchildren. I hope that each reader enjoys the poems and pictures and it encourages them to embrace the story of their own life.

The final section, “Animals with Attitudes”, features four humorous mini-plays with animals (elephants, lions, housecats, and rhinoceroses) taking on Jewish characteristics and even speaking some Yiddish (translations provided).

Keep on Paddling
True Adventures in the Boundary Waters Wilderness
Roy Cerny
About the Book
The events in these true tales of the canoe country of northern Minnesota and Ontario were compiled over the authors’ lifetime of experiences in the woods. Working with Boy Scouts and in his later years with employees, friends, family, and folks from his church, the author has led perhaps over 500 people on trips into the Boundary Waters. The experiences on these trips over the past 50 years have provided a wealth of material that the author has crafted into enjoyable stories.
Some of the stories are educational, many are hilarious, more than a few are inspirational, all of them are entertaining. Each story stands alone but the book is best read from the front. Words followed by asterisks are defined in a glossary for readers unfamiliar with canoeing or the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. After reading this book, the author hopes you will be better informed about the lake country, you will have a greater appreciation for the wilderness, and you might even be encouraged to take a canoe trip to see Gods’ country for yourself. If this is true, then the author has succeeded in his purpose.About the Author
Roy Cerny, the author of this collection of true tales, renews his love of the outdoors almost every summer, spending some time revisiting the canoe country that has become such a big part of his life. First paddling the canoe trails as a scout in the summer of 1959, he was awestruck by the beauty, the sounds and smells, the flora and fauna, and the immensity of the Quetico and Boundary Waters wilderness. It was so different from the South Dakota prairie where he grew up.
Just a few years later, he began summer employment at the Charles L. Sommers Boy Scout Canoe Base as a guide, taking Boy Scouts on eight-day canoe trips into the wilderness. It was the most fun and rewarding job he ever had and provided the background for majority of the tales in this book. He loves to see what is around the next point, what is beyond the horizon, what is over the next hill – and he loves to find out by paddling there in his canoe. In his later years, he is still taking church groups, friends, and family members into the North Woods that he has grown to love. He and his wife, Midge, and their families all live in the land of ten thousand lakes, Minnesota, residing near each other in South Saint Paul, just a four-hour drive away from the Bound. -
Thanks Be To God: A Minister’s Memoir
Larry LaPierre
About the Book
The author is a retired United Methodist minister and a former Department of Veterans Affairs Chief Chaplain. He writes about a series of people to whom he owes a debt of gratitude for the difference that they made in his life. When asked how he got to be a minister after working in laboratories for eighteen years, he responds, “It’s a long story but the short version of it is that I had a twenty-one year argument with God.” Most people pause and then say, “And God won.” Yes, God won! The book describes how God worked through many people to equip him to face changes in denomination, career path and education. The book originates with a desire to thank the people who helped him to make the changes that God called him to make. This, in turn, began with a decision by the United Methodist Church conference where he holds membership to limit retiring pastors to no more than a three minute talk at their retirement ceremony. He decided that there were far too many people to thank to even begin to try in a three minute speech. This book is the result of his desire to thank those who helped him as he struggled to become the person God needed him to be at each stage in his life.

The Secret of Life: Development of the Spiritual Consciousness
Sorocaima Salerno
About the Book
In this work, the concept of the spiritual search as an internal and individual experience is excellently reflected, without impositions or fundamentalism, from the first page to the last. The author expresses himself with great clarity, demonstrates extensive knowledge of the spiritual principles that he exposes, and manages to develop each topic in an organized and comprehensible way. He seeks to precisely convey and transmit these principles, in a way that captivates the reader. Sorocaima Salerno has been a student of the world’s Mystics for more than 50 years. The premature and tragic loss of loved ones deeply impacted his youth and launched him into a profound search for the meaning of the human experience that laid the foundation for this book. For thousands of years, religious teachings around the world have indoctrinated the belief in a God separate from us, watching and ruling from above, who does not exist. It is these misconceptions about God that are the cause of all the problems and misfortunes that human beings face every day. He challenges these notions using the core universal principles of the Mystics, from Jesus Christ to Gautama Buddha, emphasizing the common threads between their teachings and illustrating practical ways to apply them to develop our own spiritual awareness. The Secret of Life, as the title suggests, is showing us the door that must be opened to experience our eternity in harmony and Truth, and handing us the key to liberate ourselves. This book will give you not only an answer to the mysteries of human life but also the solution. “You shall know the Truth and the Truth shall make you free” (John 8:32)About the Author
Sorocaima believes helping others to develop their spiritual sense is one’s highest calling; the most important service one can give and receive. He currently resides in California, dedicated to his family, his export trading company, and his tireless endeavors to sow the Truth in the consciences of all those who seek it.
