It is the year 1764 in a land far different from the Germany today, a land ruled by feudal princes and religious zealots. The terrible Seven Years' War is done, but the tales of religious atrocities from the long past Thirty Years' War are still fresh in the minds of all. No tolerance at this time; the Catholics and Protestants openly hate each other. A young Lutheran country couple, along with a strange new city friend, slowly travel from village Heilbronn north to Lubeck, one step at a time towards the "Promised Land." Sailing to, and walking across much of Russia, our couple arrives to help build the Volga Colony of Balzer.Over the next 130 years, they and their descendants triumph over evils and carve out a bountiful life, before again moving on to the new "Promised Land," AMERICA, settling in the San Joaquin Valley near Fresno, California. MARCH TO THE VOLGA is one in a series of historical fiction novels, each based on a different Deutsche family in the 1760's. www.MarchToTheVolga.com

The Final Chapter of the German-Russian Volga Colonies is filled with words like Starvation, Torture, Mass Murders, Deportation, Siberia, and GENOCIDE. Why? One would think that after all the trouble that Tsarina Catherine the Great went to get the Germans to come to Russia, and after living in the Volga Colonies for 100 years, they would be welcome forever. Not so: the Russians felt the German-Russians were still "Germans" at heart and not to be trusted. This book covers the increasing stranglehold that the Tsarist Government clamped on the Volga Colonies around 1860. This was the start of 81 years of Russian scheming to rid Russia of the German-Russians. Also covered is their deportation and life in Siberia, and Moscow's elimination of all traces of the German-Russians Volga Colonies. "GENOCIDE" This is my third book in a series on the German-Russian Volga Colonies. More information at www.DarrelKaiserBooks.com

What does the title mean? It is the idea that we can approach any electrical or electronic (and mechanical) fault using a basic logical or probability-based investigation to observe and correctly identify the significant indicators that will eventually lead us to the failure or failures. This is no different from the Detective Books you read or TV Shows you watch where the hero used a logical approach (while all those around him just ran around willy nilly) to identify the clues and catch the bad guy. This book is a complete course in Troubleshooting. Along with the written theory explaining my proven troubleshooting methods, there are over 80 diagrams and drawings, and 50 comprehension questions (with the answers) that will help you monitor how much you understand. Note: This is a Basic Troubleshooting course for Everyone; if you are already an experienced and competent electrical/electronics troubleshooter, it may to basic.

A while back, while meditating about God, I wanted to read more in the Scripture about Salvation and Eternal Life. I built this collection of 101 Scripture Quotes so that I could easily find, read and meditate on one each day, and if you use it that way, it will cover 101 days... I would then just start over again, but use it as works best for you. I have added my feelings about what each Scripture quote means to me; they are only notes to me and ignore them if you want, as my words may not correctly get the Lord's messages across. Freely use whatever you want, and then pray and thank God, but not me as I am only a channel for our Lord. I am at best only a very small and feeble beam of light pointing the way towards the Light of Christ... Copy and share this book with anyone to spread God's Word and His Kingdom. Remember, Choose God each and every day, for to Choose is Worship, and Worship is Love, and our unconditional Love is what our God always wants most from us. More at www.DarrelKaiserBooks.com
