Book excerpt: The lifestyle of kids growing up in the 1940's and 50's were quite different from those in the generations that followed. We had more freedom to roam and explore. We had many experiences that were common to us that the young people of today will never know. I wanted my children and grandchildren to know what we did as youngsters, how we thought, the problems we encountered, our experiences and how we saw the world through the eyes of a teenager. My grandparents were youngsters before the civil war and I have often wondered what they experienced growing up and I never had the opportunity to find out. This book will give my grandchildren and those that follow, how we lived through the depression years, WWII and the Korean Conflict. As I look back, I would have to say, our generation was blessed and growing up was some of the best years of our life.

Book excerpt: The book begins with a quote from Mark Twain that states: The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why. This book expresses the challenges the author faced in life while attempting to fit into constantly changing environments. Throughout the book, the author explains the transitions involving his fool's hill-a concept presented to him by his grandmother. Early in life, the author experienced changing life situations, and he desired to be accepted, which led to mischievousness then gravitated to crime and other rebellious acts. As a high school dropout, the author volunteered to serve in the United States Marine Corps, and after enlistment, struggles continued. After earning his high school diploma, discharge from the military, and the birth of his son, the author decided to turn his life around but struggled making the transition. During employment challenges and several money-making ventures, the author earns two associate's degrees, a bachelor's of science, a master's degree, and eventually, a doctorate in education degree from Pepperdine University. Haphazardly, he finds employment that helps troubled individuals, and from communicating the challenges he faced, assisted others in finding their way. Behold, the author discovers and finds his "Why" as stated in the quote by Mark Twain. Nevertheless, after facing personal challenges including divorce, he detaches from family and finds his love for the outdoors, especially backpacking, which many African Americans don't partake. Several challenging escapades in the wilderness he explains humorously. Eventually, the author reconnects with family. This book differs from others because it describes the challenges an African American male, who isn't a celebrity, faces while transitioning from a troubled inner-city life to one that helps others succeed. Included in the book is much history about the civil rights era and beyond. Many situations explained with a comedic twist.

Book excerpt: The two most important days in your life are the day you are born, and the day you find out why. —Mark Twain Dr. Cubit’s memoir, Fool’s Hill: The Meaning Why! As displayed on the front cover, an angry young man is about to climb a hill, which represents the challenge of discovering his meaning why. There is a path to follow; however, the young man cannot see what lies ahead because of the dark clouds. The front cover displays one path, which he must traverse Fool’s Hill to discover his meaning why and fulfill his destination in life. The young man is unclothed, indicating that he does not have the necessities or tools to navigate Fool’s Hill or the wherewithal to choose what he needs to make the journey. The back cover displays the same young man who is older now after enduring the challenges of climbing Fool’s Hill. Along the way, he finds his meaning why. Moreover, because of the lessons learned from his journey, he is fully clothed and prepared. Equipped with tools, on one hand is a doctorate degree, and on the other is a hiking pole to help him avoid trips and falls. In addition, instead of a dark path as displayed on the front cover, the bridge on the back cover represents a straightforward path to fulfilling his meaning why. On the back cover, in the background, are more hills to master. Still, because of overcoming life’s challenges and the tools acquired, the hills appear much smaller. Moreover, the scenery displayed on the back cover helps him not to forget that future challenges may exist. The scenery also helps him realize the beauty of his journey and to bestow gratitude for his relationship with God, which helped him overcome the obstacles along his path, in addition to the blessings and serendipities acquired. The man looks beyond and can now use his God-given talents and tools to continue his journey and enhance his meaning why. Ergo, Dr. Cubit's life in the memoir Fool’s Hill: The Meaning Why!

Book excerpt: Trust is vital for living in these days. I believe the sin of mistrusting God is the fountainhead of our modern malaise. Imagine that God desires to take us humans to the place where each of us desires to go-the place of trust. The promises connected to trusting God are both innumerable and immeasurable. I write this volume in hopes of spurring the believer who has settled for an uneventful life while claiming love and allegiance to the Lord. I am in hopes that the person who is just going through the motions of religious life can catch a glimpse of what God has in store for him or her. Most of us really think we are trusting God, when in fact, we are leaning on our own understanding. This book will teach you the benefits and blessings of trusting God. -Larry Ellis, from the Introduction

Book excerpt: This is a true story, a family saga, whose strong and resourceful heroine is Lizzie Elnora Murphy Casebolt. It tells of her lifelong search for her beautiful mother, Jencey, who died when Lizzie was seven, but who appeared to Lizzie many times in dreams and in unusual circumstances. Lizzie was adopted by a kindly judge and his wife, the Taylors. She grew up in the small Missouri town of Miami, where she found romance with one young man, but married another. Her life, through nearly ninety-one years of happiness and heartbreak, spanned the postA Civil War period and the aftermath of slavery, the tragedies of the two world wars, the suffrage movement, the hardships of the Depression, the births of her children and grandchildren and some of her great-grandchildren, and the exciting and sometimes difficult life she led with her beloved daughter, Myrtle, and Myrtle's husband, the educator George W. Diemer, including their travels to California, the Rockies, and New York City. The gentle determination and steady character of Lizzie shines through all of the events and people who were part of her life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the early part of the twentieth century, Havilah Babcock hunted and wrote these and many other delightful sporting essays. In those years bird hunting was a social activity as well as a field sport. My Health Is Better in November, first published by the University of South Carolina Press in 1947, has remained popular primarily because Bobcock's stories describe the camaraderie of the hunt, bringing it to life. Readers can imagine themselves in the field, watching the dogs on point near an overgrown fence row. In recent decades hunting has become a more solitary pursuit, leaving many longing for the good old days. In these pages you will find that lost fellowship along with a bit of humor that will delight and amuse even those who have never shouldered a gun or cast a fly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Titling his book Journey to the End of the Century, SACHAL puts us in the macrocosm of the culture of the Soviet Union through the microcosm of his life there. It was a harsh and difficult beginning: homelessness, starvation, loneliness, diseases, and a painful existence. Never complaining, little Sacha learns how to use experience in the most magical ways. He recounts how he bravely endured, how to use the system of control to survive and fully be himself. This severe beginning prepared Sacha for the horrors of war, for the harshness and severity of the German prison camp and the French Resistance. This hero received the Croix de Guerre in France. He learned how to survive homelessness, severe cold, no food, cruelty, and brutality, and all with a smile, ingenuity, a song on his lips, or his gift of art. He was a genius with poetry in his soul that he later put on canvas. This unforgettable history speaks to us about how to use adversity and to triumph in a sometimes cruel, brutal world. It is a powerful story of how one man learned to be himself, gentle, powerful, resilient, uncomplaining of himself or others throughout this saga of his life. While his story is devastating, it is magnificent that a man such as Sacha can endure and learn from every adversity that being true to himself is the greatest response. This book is an unforgettable read and will enrich all those who venture into Journey to the End of the Century. For more information on Sacha, the man and his art, see www.sachal.com.

Book excerpt: Graham Wilson's Climbing Down, selected as a Travel Book of the Week in The Guardian, features long distance walks in the Scottish, Welsh and English hills — but in manageable chunks. Wilson makes an entertaining companion; once he was fit enough for the Bob Graham Round, now he's the victim of a crumbling hip. So, he breaks the walks into sections and, instead of calling on a shuttle-service of friends with cars, takes to public transport. The walks include an Alternative Snowdon Horseshoe, a Scottish Coast to Coast and the Yorkshire Centurion, as well as several Peak District rounds. And a new, gentler activity is proposed for the compulsive list-ticker: island-bagging. Wilson's experiences are recounted in his own inimitable style, with the usual eccentric digressions into topi such as coffin roads and cut-hopping, Munros and mobile phones, solo climbing and slippered pigs. Wonderfully illustrated with drawings by Gerry Dale.
