Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

In 1969, newlywed Dorothy Tucker envisions herself living with
her husband in quaint Minden, Louisiana, surrounded by their
families, raising a family of their own, and becoming part of
Minden history. The joy doesn't last long. After the birth of their
child, James Lee, Dorothy obtains a divorce from her abusive and
philandering husband, Fred. But Fred's parents are not about to
lose control of their grandson.
When Dorothy loses custody of James Lee through Child Protective
Services, she flees to California to start a new life, vowing to
reconnect with her son someday. While waitressing and attending
college, she meets and marries Jesse Barns, a black airman
stationed at LAX. Together, through the haze of racism fueled by
their mixed marriage, Dorothy and Jesse raise two children.
Twenty-five years later, she receives letter from James Lee, who
says he wants to meet with her. The letter reveals James Lee as a
racist who has just been released from prison. Dorothy must
determine if this man, her firstborn son, will be a positive
influence in her family's life, or if his racist attitudes will
bring them all down.
This book can be used individually or in groups. Readers will
first learn about the manifestations and dangers of unresolved
stress. How do we respond to stress? What causes the stress in our
lives and how did Jesus respond to stress? From the Sermon on the
Mount through the Lord's prayer learn healthier ways of managing
stress and helping others to do the same.
Blessed are the Peacemakers, for they will be called Children of
God. - Matthew 5:9 NRSV
"I highly recommend this book Praying Our Way through Stress:
Drawing Wisdom from the Lord's Prayer and Life. June Paul has a
passion for reaching out to all those suffering from the various
stressors in their lives. She uses her compassion and her intimate
knowledge of God's Word to share with the reader His love, grace
and mercy for them" -Ken Manthey, Portage Police Chief
"This book will touch a very important area in our current
society." -The Rev. U. Dean Hekel, VA Chaplain and Priest
This book seeks to leave the reader feeling optimistic and
forward-thinking about our collective ability to provide a better
educational future for all of our children. Rather than simply
recite problems, Unlearning Failure seeks to explore credible
solutions. If we are to fix the current urban schooling mess that
we find ourselves in, we might well need to reignite our collective
outside-the-box thinking as well as revisit measures previously
labeled controversial.

With its battlefields paved over and its bunkers crumbled, the
Third Reich of Nazi Germany nevertheless lives on in countless
photographs that record and chronicle an era whose powerful and
often seductive malevolence continues to enthrall international
audiences even as past perpetrators and survivors fade away. This
collection of more than 500 photographs taken by amateurs and
professional propagandists provides a panoramic overview of Nazi
Germany, offering intimate glimpses into living rooms and killing
grounds, kitchens and concentration camps, movie theaters and
battle fronts. The explanatory text explores the cultural and
historical context of the images, uniting them into a cohesive and
riveting narrative. Together, these photographs, most never before
seen, create a time capsule of indelible images that capture the
faces of the individuals who fell under the sway of the swatstika
as well as those who suffered under its onslaught on humanity.
