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.

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.

Pee Wee Serial Killer or Homicidal Maniac
O. Grady Query
About the Book
Pee Wee Gaskins killed without hesitation and apparently without remorse over and over again. He did so as he meandered in and out of maximum security prisons where he spent more than half of his life. Sentenced to reform school at age thirteen he honed his skills in the use of extreme violence. The horror of his crimes is played out against the backdrop of one of the most rural areas of South Carolina during the tumultuous change from absolute segregation to forced integration.
In a lifestyle of absolute lawlessness Gaskins exercised a bizarre charismatic control over the women who surrounded him and ruled his little gang of miscreants with violence and murder. Sometimes driving a hearse and bragging of a private graveyard he maintained a macabre and confusing presence to those he encountered. Diminutive at five feet three inches and one hundred thirty pounds he feared no man and struck fear in most. Undaunted by arrests and imprisonment he conducted a crusade of murder
and mayhem over nearly three decades and killed more than fifty people. His motives were as varied as his methods.About the Author

Court appointed to represent Gaskins Query spent hundreds of hours in court, visiting crime scenes, interviewing witnesses and simply listening to his client.

Is This The End?
Dr. Dean Lang
About the Book
Dr. Dean Lang has been studying and teaching Bible Prophecy for more than sixty years starting as a teenager. He teaches these profound prophecies in simple and easy to understand language. People who have heard him speak say, “he paints word pictures that I can understand”. People feel that something is about to happen. Dr. Lang not only teaches you what, but how to prepare for it. “Signs of the end times” is that people will run to and from all over the earth and that knowledge will be greatly increased for example computers, smart phones, IPads and electronics. You may be reading this book in hard cover, paperback, or eBook anywhere in the world. Is this not a fulfillment of this prophecy? God destroyed the world with a flood, but had Noah build an ark. Sadly few people were on it. Don’t you make this mistake? Is there an ark for an escape this time? Yes, read about it in this book. Christians look for the second coming of Christ, referring to the rapture, seven years later when we come back with King Jesus Christ to earth. Moslems look for their coming Messiah Madhi. As I write Moslem countries are toppling the old leaderships and preparing for this new leader. He will take over the world; food shortages worldwide will kill millions and perhaps billions of people. Those who do not worship him and take his mark 666 will be beheaded. A time of hell on earth. The Jews look for their coming Messiah to bring in the thousand year millennium of paradise on earth and He will. Read this book and act upon it today. You can escape all of this if you will repent and accept Christ before the rapture. If the antichrist has already set up his new world order read and act upon it quickly. It will probably cost you your life for now but real soon you will come back to live with King Jesus. You will find out where we all came from. We started in the Garden of Eden which was in Babylon, now Iraq. The first world.

Vision Art and History of Art
Peter V. Moak
About the Book
This book describes a visual approach to art. It stands in contrast to the current linguistic approach. It is about looking at art rather than reading about art. Looking at hundreds of works of art from the whole history of art demonstrates that every work of art needs to be seen in a particular way, the way it was seen when it was made. We do not see the world directly. We see pictures of the world in our head. These are ten basic ways for looking at art based on the ways we look at the pictures in our head. These ten ways when applied to works of art from the stone age to the present reveal patterns in the ways of looking at art throughout history. They also reveal neglected masterpieces, famous works misidentified and how the misunderstood work of certain famous artists should be seen.
About the Author
I have been an art historian for forty five years. I have a Masters degree from New York University and a Doctorate from the University of Pennsylvania. I taught briefly at Villanova University and the University of Hampshire, but most of my life has been devoted to understanding the visual order that underlies a work of art. In addition to working in libraries I traveled extensively here and in Europe to see works first hand. Now that my traveling days are over due to age and health I am concentrating on writing about what I have learned and discovered. I want to pass this information on to future generations and hopefully to inspire others to see art as it was made to be seen. To see The Parthenon, the works of Michelangelo, Cézanne, Matisse and Picasso as they were made to be seen is very much worth the effort.

On The Inside
Carol Perrin
About the Book
On the Inside is a Memoir of my experiences inside the walls of the schools. I share stories, feelings, thoughts of students and staff members. I also share my life experiences to hope to inspire our youth to reach higher, love themselves for who we are and to never give up.
About the Author
I am 41 years old, a mother of two, and a grandmother of one. I grew up in a small town in Michigan. Although my childhood was a good one I made a lot of wrong choices. I was not good with peer-pressure and had little self-esteem. I have been married three times and have been happily married for the past 18 years. I am twice a breast cancer survivor.
When my children reached school age I had the opportunity to spend most of my time there with them. I started out helping the teacher and students needing help staying caught up. That led me to getting very involved in a mentoring program. I took students under my wing not only academically but also socially. It was hard not to spread myself too thin. There were so many students I wanted to reach out and help. I was surprised at what children were facing in their lives. The heartbreak was enormous and at times hard to endure.
After the second occurrence of breast cancer I took some time to do some soul searching. That is when I realized I was where I wanted to be; I loved being on the inside of the education system. I love to watch children smile when they are proud of their achievements. I also have loved helping build self-esteem and self-confidence.
I hope what I have written will inspire anyone who needs it to make better choices, reach higher, understand each other better and know we all have a purpose. -

Surviving to see another day was always the mission. Before she was able to hit puberty, Kwanna found herself making adult decisions. The pressure from the streets was on. While the pot of dysfunction was broiling at home. There was nothing else left for her to do but pack her bags and take that walk down the boulevard of broken dreams. After adopting the streets as her family she went on to become a notorious gang member who was well known all across the city. In the streets it was an accomplishment to be a female who was respected.Remaining loyal to the brotherhood, putting in the work to show and prove herself, Kwanna and the children she came up with were literally products of chaos, genocide, and self-destruction. They were a generation that was fearless, had no conscious, no direction and held no punches. The only thing they had was each other and that was enough.
After all the countless funerals and multiple trips to jail. Kwanna begins to reap all the seeds she had sown which had grasped her attention to change. Most children grow up preparing for which prominent university they plan to attend. That was not the case for Kwanna and majority of her peers.
