This is a true story. It relates to the author's stay at the Protestant Children's Home, Detroit, Michigan, referred to in this book as "The Home." The book deals not only with the children living at The Home during WWII, but also with their experiences in Detroit at that time.

"'C.G. Mitchell's account of his childhood days growing up in The Protestant Children's Home is a vivid peek into Detroit's past through the eyes of a child who lived there. Mitchell expertly weaves the historical tidbits of a bygone era with the touching story of a boy and his brother doing their best to bring a measure of joy and comfort in a potentially joyless existence.""

C.G. Mitchell is the author of "I Quit-I Promise," "Storytime Anytime," and "Marching to an Angry Drum." Recently, the author has compiled a DVD of Camp Tinega from three 16mm films made between 1939 and 1941.

"Marching to an Angry Drum" deals with the difficulties encountered by both gays and lesbians who are required to lead a double life while serving in the military. The "Angry Drum" is that aspect of the military that destroys lives not only through combat but also through the hostility of purges, intolerance and prejudice. "Mitchell has written a fine addition to the turbulent history of gays in the military. It's star-spangled summer reading, replete with guts, romance, and gay patriotism and, importantly, the loyalty of straight friends."--Charles Alexander, "Between The Lines," Farmington, Michigan, July 2000

Marching to an Angry Drum "is a story that needs to be read by anyone apt to turn a blind eye to gays and lesbians in the military. March to the bookstore and get this one--double-time."--Ken Marten, editor, "The Mirror," Royal Oak, Michigan, January 2004

First printed in 1934, this book gives a critical survey of the principles and limitations of methods for studying resonance radiation that is the re-emission of absorbed radiation without change of wavelength and of the theoretical interpretation of the phenomenon. At the time of first publication, physicists had come to the limit of the then existing techniques in the field and the book was more useful to astronomers who were interested in line shapes existing in the spectra of stars. In past years other fields and techniques have developed for which the information in this book is of interest. These fields are: (1) those having to do with the determination of spins, magnetic moments and hyperfine structure separations by the methods of 'optical pumping' and 'optical double resonance': (2) optical MASERS; and (3) nuclear resonance absorption of gamma rays.
