This work examines all the aspects of the Full Faith and Credit
Clause and its importance in the development of United States law.
It begins with the birth of the clause and the history underlying
its adoption. This includes discussions held at the Constitutional
Convention and the early judicial interpretations of the clause.
The book looks separately at the individual components that embody
the clause--those that deal with records, public acts, and judicial
proceedings. The book also zeroes in on the relationship between
the clause and the issues of family law. It covers marriage,
divorce, support, and child custody, all issues that have demanded
serious attention in recent years.

Ruth Danson, a feisty seventeen-year-old Pennsylvania farm-girl
abandons her family in the spring of 1863 to be with the man she
loves, nineteen-year-old William Jay Lytell, a private with John
Mosby's 43rd Battalion of Virginia Cavalry--the famed Mosby's
Rangers. Through the lush panoramic beauty of Virginia's Shenandoah
Valley and across the vast expanse of war-ravaged Virginia, Li'l
Bud thunders across the pages in a maelstrom of cannon smoke and
musket fire. Robert E. Lee and U.S. Grant; Phil Sheridan and George
Custer; A.P. Hill and John Hancock are seen through the eyes of
Li'l Bud and Jay as they fight and love through the killing years
of the Civil War. It is the heartbreaking story of sister against
brother as Ruth rides against her brother David of the 116th
Pennsylvania Infantry. In raids and skirmishes Li'l Bud encounters
hometown friends in the Ringgold and 22nd Pennsylvania Cavalry
blurring the lines between North and South. Amidst the flames and
anguished cries as the Shenandoah Valley burns from Union torches,
Li'l Bud, with a pair of Colt .44s and her faithful chestnut filly,
Princess, will let nothing stand in the way of love in the arms of
William Jay.
Based on a factual account of a previously undisclosed incident
aboard a German U-boat off the coast of Florida in 1942. Two
Americans get involved in Nazi-sponsored sabotage, become unwitting
participants in a mutiny at sea, and are forced underground.
Master horseman Buck Brannaman, the real-life Horse Whisperer,
continues the chronicle of his life as trainer and mentor in
Believe, where we meet thirteen remarkable people whose lives he
has affected. Through their accounts of help and healing and
through Brannaman's own introductions, the reader is inspired by
the hope and confidence that he instilled in these individuals.
This updated edition includes a new foreword, introduction, and
account by one of Brannaman's longtime observers.
The Faraway Horses, which was the inspiration for the Sundance Film
Festival's award-winning documentary Buck in 2011, is Buck
Brannaman's richly textured and stunning account of his life from
an abusive childhood to his phenomenally successful approach to
horses. A real-life 'horse-whisperer', Buck possesses near magical
abilities as he dramatically transforms horses-and people-with his
understanding, compassion, and respect. A truly American story
about a cowboy and sage, The Faraway Horses tells the tale of the
extraordinary life of an extraordinary man. At heart, this rich and
rewarding memoir is a roadmap for living a harmonious and
honourable existence among horses and humans. This updated edition
features a new foreword and introduction. 'I've started horses
since I was 12 years old and have been bit, kicked, bucked off and
run over. I've tried every physical means to contain my horse in an
effort to keep from getting myself killed. I started to realise
that things would come much easier for me once I learned why a
horse does what he does. This method works well for me because of
the kinship that develops between horse and rider'. Buck Brannaman
