In one of the world's most beautiful places, amid swaying palms and ocean breezes, Ken Williams battles death and hopelessness. In "There Must Be Honor," Ken traces a journey behind the golden facade of Santa Barbara's scenery and into the panting heart of its streets. He calls for honor, for remembrance, for compassion, for the least of us-the hardcore homeless, many of whom are, like him, veterans of our nation's wars.

Remember the battlefield with him, and then return to the present as he faces down new enemies in another kind of struggle-the struggle to create compassion. Meet the people he serves, the friends he makes, and the loved ones he loses in his daily journey. "There Must Be Honor" represents his call for others to join him on that road to hope and a better future. Ken has won numerous accolades and awards for his many years of dedication, and his writing in this volume gives poetic reality to what is often an invisible struggle.

The Barnes Foundation's historic Pueblo and Navajo collections are explored alongside works by contemporary Native American artists This richly illustrated book makes the Barnes Foundation's exceptional collection of Native American art from the Southwest available to the public for the first time. Collector and educator Albert C. Barnes traveled to the U.S. Southwest in 1930 and 1931 and, deeply impressed by the generative art practices he saw there, formed a collection of Pueblo and Navajo pottery, textiles, and jewelry. Water, Wind, Breath illuminates the materials, forms, and designs of the objects as they relate to Pueblo and Navajo histories and ideas. The book blends postcolonial and Indigenous perspectives, introducing readers to living artistic traditions filled with purpose, intention, and a deeply embedded spirituality that connects places, practices, and Native identities. Works by contemporary Native American artists are juxtaposed with historic pieces, illuminating the connections between heritage traditions and modern practices. Distributed for the Barnes Foundation Exhibition Schedule: The Barnes Foundation, Philadelphia (February 20-May 15, 2022)

Sailors have crossed oceans for centuries, but the era of couples cruising the world in small powerboats is just beginning. The author starts out with limited long-range boating skills, but a strong desire to learn them. As he chronicles the trip across the Atlantic, he shares his parallel journey from "coastal cruiser" to "ocean crosser." Readers learn these same lessons with each passing page as Sans Souci, the Williams' boat, travels as part of the first Atlantic powerboat rally-a fleet of 18 small power boats averaging just 50' in length, owned and operated mostly by retired couples. In this "Beginner's Guide to Crossing Oceans," Ken's honest, entertaining style will keep you turning pages as you travel with the crew of Sans Souci to experience life at sea: satisfying work, warm camaraderie, and, memorable adventure. This 10th Anniversary Edition adds new details, color images, and retrospective insights from author Ken Williams, other rally participants, Nordhavn CEO Dan Streech, and Nordhavn's co-founder and the Atlantic Rally's creator, Jim Leishman.
