Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mid-19th century mining town of Bodie, California located at 8,369 feet, atop the Sierra Nevada Mountains, just 3 1/2 miles from the Nevada border, was considered one of the richest gold and silver mining towns in the west. Geologists who know of its present rich ore deposits, say it could have been again, but since it became a California historic state park in 1962, that possibility was terminated. The old town, now the best preserved ghost town in the Nation, is maintained in a state of arrested decay by the State of California, meaning it will never be restored to its once rough and tough condition of the 1870s, but it is prevented from further deterioration through a system of constant repair. The public is encouraged to visit the old town, and this book is a compilation of stories, news items, historic information, and reports of its past, some true, some possibly true, and some probably outright lies by citizens of the past and news reporters who wrote for the many old newspapers that described life as it was lived in the years immediately following the Civil War. Authors Jim Watson, photographer, and Doug Brodie, former newspaper reporter, have obtained items heretofore never explained nor described in writings about the old town. Their research has made this book a one of a kind publication.

Despite his desires to strike fear in the hearts of others, Bodie is a cute and cuddly grump of a troll. But what he might lack in ferocity, he makes up for in spirit. Alongside his Fairy Godmother and his best friend Cholly, Bodie has a habit of finding trouble and adventure. Whether it’s protecting the village from spellbound beasts or performing shape-changing theater, Bodie Troll is up for the challenge. If he’s lucky, he just might scare someone along the way. Written and illustrated by Jay Fosgitt (Rocket Raccoon & Groot), Bodie Troll is a rollicking fantasy adventure celebrating the importance of stalwart friendships and being true to oneself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bodie Mining District was established in 1860 after the discovery of gold deposits in the area. Bodie's largest boom ended just over twenty years later, but the town survived into the twentieth century supported by a few small but steady mines. Mining ended with World War II. What remained of the town became a state park in 1964. In Bodie's Gold, author Marguerite Sprague uncovers the original sources of information whenever possible, from the first mining claims to interviews with former Bodieites. Enhanced with numerous historic photographs and extracts from newspapers of that period, as well as by the reminiscences of former residents, the book offers a fascinating account of life in a Gold Rush boomtown. The book is now available in a new, easier-to-handle paperback edition that will make it more convenient for readers who want to carry if with them in a car or backpack.

Book excerpt: You can't see the world in black and white until you eliminate the gray. Weeks away from a national presidential election, politicians, voters, and the news media are divided along ideological lines. The division becomes even deeper when members of the conservative media are being assassinated by a hidden killer. It's up to veteran FBI agent Bodie Anderson to find him and bring him to justice.After a successful 25-year career, Bodie is bone-weary and ready to retire, but the memory of a horrible tragedy from his past keeps him going. He soon discovers he's matching wits with a hired assassin who is equally as smart, and who shares a similar history. As the body count rises, with the future of the country at stake, Bodie finds himself in a race against time to catch the killer, before a final, deadly showdown pushes him to his physical and mental limits.

Book excerpt: Take a journey with me, back to California's golden days. As the sun rises over the ghost town of Bodie, if you really listen, you can still hear the clink clank of the breakfast dishes barely audible amid the ever present pounding from the mighty Standard Mill, crushing the precious quartz. The search for gold is never sleeping. Get to know the people from our own past while reading "Bodie: The Golden Years." The book is a fictional portrayal of the pioneer women and children of the 1860-1900 era. What did they wear? Where did they go to school? Who were these early hardy folk? Like a stage ride through the western days you will get introduced to several real life characters--Elizabeth and Helen Anne Kernohan, Margaret and Alice Beck, Suzy Bill, Delilah and Jessie (Doll) Cain. To add dimension I have added a fictionalized Chinese resident, Pearl Chung.

Book excerpt: The Tower of Babel: The Cultural History of Our Ancestors reveals our shared ancestry as never before! Many are familiar with the Biblical account of Babel, but after the dispersal, there was a void beyond Biblical history until empires like Rome and Greece arose. Now, discover the truth of these people groups and their civilizations that spread across the earth and trace their roots back to Babel as well as to the sons and grandsons of Noah. Many of today's scholars write off what occurred at the Tower of Babel as mythology and deny that it was a historical event. Beginning with the Biblical accounts, author Bodie Hodge researched ancient texts, critical clues, and rare historic records to help solve the mystery of what became of the failed builders of Babel. For the purpose of defending the Bible, Hodge presents these and other vital historical facts surrounding this much-debated event. Teens and older can use this layman's reference for Biblical classes, ancient history, apologetics training, and to realize their own cultural connection to the Bible.
