A book of poems, most of which have never been published before,
though some are award-winning. They show over twenty years of
living, and run through all the emotions. The styles range from
free-verse to rhyming couplets. Something here for everyone.
This book serves as a guide to help assist in your everyday life.
It has scripture references and guides as a daily tool to prayer.
Prayer is essential in this lifetime. Prayer serves as a
communication tool to God. No matter what your faith is, don't
forget to pray. This act of praying is sometimes difficult to
remember in the business of our everyday life. But try to pray as
often as possible so that you'll get closer to God's heavenly
presence.
Passed in 1873, the Comstock Act banned 'obscene' materials from
the mail without defining obscenity, leaving it open to
interpretation by courts that were hostile to free speech.
Literature that reflected changing attitudes toward sexuality,
religion, and social institutions fell victim to the Comstock Act
and related state laws. Dr. Edward Bliss Foote became among the
earliest individuals convicted under the law after he mailed a
brochure on birth-control methods. For the next four decades, Foote
Sr. and his son, Dr. Edward Bond Foote, challenged the Comstock Act
in Congress, legislatures, and courts and also offered personal
assistance to Comstock defendants. This book chronicles the Footes'
struggle, examining not just the efforts of these cruising
champions of freedom of expression and women's rights, but also the
larger issues surrounding free speech and censorship in the Gilded
Age of American history.
