In 1969, the Chicago Seven were charged with intent to "incite,
organize, promote, and encourage" antiwar riots during the chaotic
1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago. The defendants
included major figures of the antiwar and racial justice movements:
Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin, the madcap founders of the Yippies;
Tom Hayden and Rennie Davis, longtime antiwar organizers; David
Dellinger, a pacifist and chair of the National Mobilization
Committee to End the War in Vietnam; and Bobby Seale, co-founder of
the Black Panther Party, who would be bound and gagged in the
courtroom before his case was severed from the rest. The Chicago
Conspiracy Trial is an electrifying account of the months-long
trial that commanded the attention of a divided nation. John
Schultz, on assignment for The Evergreen Review, witnessed the
whole trial of the Chicago Seven, from the jury selection to the
aftermath of the verdict. In his vivid account, Schultz exposes the
raw emotions, surreal testimony, and judicial prejudice that came
to define one of the most significant legal events in American
history. In October 2020, Aaron Sorkin's film, The Trial of the
Chicago Seven, will bring this iconic trial to the screen.

At first glance, the biblical book of Leviticus appears to be a
metic- ulously boring delineation of ancient tribal superstitions
in the Mideast. Concealed under the multiple details, however, are
spar- kling gems never discovered by the cursory reader. This is
the reason I am excited about this new volume. The bib- lical book
opens up with new luster. Pearls smile at us from every stone the
author turns. Jewels leap up with wisdom for our minds and richness
for our lives. Here we glimpse something of the orna- mental nature
of God and His relation with humankind. Nuggets of gold await those
who read John Schultz is uniquely equipped to be the author. He is
a scholar, a linguist who is fluent in several languages, a teacher
of pas- tors and Christian workers in Asia, Europe and America. The
saga of his life trails through Nazi occupation in Europe and
illiterate stone-age people groups in the South Pacific. Schultz'
earlier books have brought special blessing to many persons.
John was born in Haarlem, The Netherlands in 1930. He suffered
starvation during Nazi occupation of Holland during World War II.
His father was imprisoned by the Nazi's for six weeks for supplying
the ten Boom family with ration cards, though they never found this
out. John felt the call to ministry, went to Bible School in
Brussels, Belgium, and met and married his wife there. They both
felt a strong call to the mission field then Dutch New Guinea
(later Irian Jaya - Indonesia) and left for the mission field (with
The Christian & Missionary Alliance) (we went out under the US
mission) shortly after their marriage. They would spend the next
thirty-eight years on the mission field there before retiring to
Toccoa, GA in 1995. The Lord blessed them with four children and 17
grandchildren! During his time on the mission field, John started,
taught, and ran a Bible School in Irian Jaya.

Rupert Brown's pets, a pair of guinea pigs, a turtle, and a
cockatiel, have started talking to him again, a sure sign that Miss
Switch, a bona fide, no-fooling, real witch, is back again as
Pepperdine Elementary School's enormously popular sixth-grade
teacher This can only spell one thing: the wicked Saturna has never
forgiven Rupert for blowing up her judgmental Computowitch to save
Miss Switch from its idiotic verdict. So back she is, this time
contriving a plot that employs villains so vile they can only be
imagined between the covers of actual books. With no Computowitch
to help her, will Saturna devise a way to make sure that Rupert and
his unlucky classmates meet the same terrible ends as these vile
villains?
