The Pacific Northwest was one of the most populated regions for
Native Americans before the coming of the white man. By the
mid-1800s, measles and smallpox decimated the Indian population,
and the remaining tribes were forced to give up their ancestral
lands. This book tells the story of these tribes' fight for
survival.

Knight Views are poems mostly from my experiences and emotions
while I spent time on the streets of Birmingham, Alabama in and out
of missions, sleeping in the parks, on benches, tables and
sidewalks, walking 30 minutes to an hour for regular meals in the
cold and in the heat. I call them knight views because they were
formed in my mind and heart in the middle of the night and I would
have to wait till daylight to write them down they are also called
knight views because Jesus Christ in all kinds of ways saved my
life like a Knight and quite often in the night I hope that Knight
Views helps you to either form or enhance your Faith in God
In the summer of 2005, three friends and I took an eight month
journey across the two continents of America and Europe. We were on
a mission: - to get ten of the world's most famous recording
artists to record a tribute album to an unknown songwriter; - And
that songwriter would be me. And as we travelled we were going to
make a road movie; an epic chronicle of our quest, and a testament
to our friendship. We made it and we called it, Tribute This The
adventures we had and the people we met changed my life profoundly.
Not only its present but also how I viewed its past. Apart from our
struggles with managers, publicists, security and even one or two
of the artists themselves, we ran into so many people from ordinary
walks of life; cab drivers, hotel porters, fans standing in line to
see their heroes, who couldn't do enough to help or encourage us on
our journey. For one long summer, we lived life so brilliantly; so
full of laughter and a gathering sense of achievement that I
wondered if the artists we were pursuing ever got to see life in
anything like the same way. In contrast they seemed so protected,
so hidden away, so cut off from the world that, towards the end of
our travels, the thought occurred to me that, at that point in
time, I wouldn't swap one year of their lives for one day of ours.
My hope is that, in reading my account of those heady days, you
will understand why. Billy Franks .
