Author John Barber brings adventure to every bookshelf as he
releases through Xlibris the first installment of the Mole Trilogy.
Readers are taken to the most dangerous zones of Vietnam as they
follow one man's exploits in First Mole. Captain John Baker aka The
Mole has put himself in danger. After deploying himself to operate
alone as a forward observer, he has been the target of all the
local Vietcong units. The attention to detail of all his movements
is very critical to his continued existence. A young man in his
twenties, Baker has with him a good record of commendable
achievements while in the military. He has exterminated a good
number of Vietcong units with his artillery and kept almost all of
his allied units from running into ambushes during the last six
months. He got his nickname not by the many impressive feats he has
but by his habit of digging a six-foot-long foxhole shelter to
sleep in every night, and of course, his cunning and alertness even
in the dark. Now, all by himself in his chosen special mission,
Capt. Baker believes what he is risking his life for will atone his
shame and guilt from a "friendly fire" incident that resulted in
the deaths of two of his soldiers. Amid threats, traps, and
espionage, he takes on the challenge only to discover that what
appears to be a highly complicated task is just in fact the
beginning of a more tumultuous ride. Propelled with humor, action,
and romance, First Mole will leave readers entertained from the
first to the very last page. For more information on this book,

The ongoing battle between free individuals and our moribund
institutions for the control of information resources, information
technology and information systems began with the sexual gods.
The chief god Atum, controller of Cosmos, declared sex ungodly
and messy, outcomes unpredictable. A sexless god, Atum, though
supreme, was unable to control Ra, Thoth, and the seven other
sexual gods. With Atumic frustration Atum confined the sexual gods
to the Solar System, but with a dire warning: if their activities
destabilized the Cosmos they would feel the full force of Atumic
wrath.
Sibling squabbles between Ra and Thoth spawned endless conflict.
Fear for their godly survival forced Ra and Thoth to confine their
fight to the Earthly environment. One outcome: Homo Saps, a unique
species combining Thought-processing with godlike features and
hominid-animal sexuality.
Both Ra and Thoth used Homo Saps as foot soldiers. Thoth
invented Information Technology/Information System or ITIS
(pronounced 'eye-tis) tools as weapons to help them free themselves
from Ra's inhibiting controls.
Homo Saps used the ITIS tools in establishing, controlling and
stabilizing the first Earthly civilizations: Ancient Egypt,
Mesopotamia, Ancient India, and Ancient China at the direction of
the gods.
Homo Saps' increasing skills with the ITIS tools allowed them to
develop independent Thought processing and break free of godly
controls. The Ancient Greek Homo Sap Aristotle and his philosopher
predecessors captured the moment by developing their own ITIS
applications and demonstrated Homo Saps' Thought processing
freedoms. They developed the first user-friendly ITIS tool that
would change their Earthly reality forever: the 22-letter
alphabet.
"Dear Jim: Our History of IT IS" traces the development of the
ITIS tools OralITIS, ImageITIS, CalendarITIS, WritingITIS, and
AlphabetITIS and their impact on civilizations before the death of
Aristotle.

Synopsis: The book you hold in your hands says that our churches
and our nation are in desperate need of biblical awakening and
revival. It begins with the churches. In stark opposition to the
quest to give our utmost for God's glory, as a whole, the modern
evangelical movement has settled for a compromised form of
Christianity. The book exposes the roots of this compromise,
analyzes keys areas of church life where we have abandoned the
biblical record, and offers a roadmap for revival and reformation.
Author Biography: John Barber has served the Church as an
evangelist, church planter, broadcaster, educator, and now is a
pastor in the Presbyterian Church in America. He is also involved
with missionary work in Uganda and helped to start a seminary in
Kenya. His other books include The Road From Eden: Studies in
Christianity and Culture, Art to the Glory of God, Earth Restored,
and America Restored.
Emily Dimmock was born in Standon, Hertfordshire. She followed the
fate of so many poor working class girls, by working as a domestic
servant, and then becoming a prostitute in London's Kings Cross.
Witnesses last saw Emily alive on the evening of September 11th
1907. On the morning of September 12th, 1907, the body of Emily
Dimmock was found in her rented rooms in Camden Town, London. The
murderer has never been identified. This is the story of the
victim; along with an account of the times in which she lived, and
the circumstances surrounding her death. Is this another crime of
the imagination? Recent books have seen parallels between The
Camden Town Murder, the Whitechapel killings of Jack the Ripper,
and The Peasenhall Mystery of 1902. This is also a social history
and an account of the human condition of the people living in the
Victorian and Edwardian eras; the upper classes and their domestic
servants, the 'fallen women', the music-halls, the artists, and the
demi-monde. All these moving against alternating backgrounds of
greys, black and crimson, and enraptured with the vapours of
wormwood.
