Book Synopsis Going Down Jericho Road: The Memphis Strike, Martin Luther King's Last Campaign by : Michael K. Honey
Download or read book Going Down Jericho Road: The Memphis Strike, Martin Luther King's Last Campaign written by Michael K. Honey and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2011-02-07 with total page 665 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive history of the epic struggle for economic justice that became Martin Luther King Jr.'s last crusade. Memphis in 1968 was ruled by a paternalistic "plantation mentality" embodied in its good-old-boy mayor, Henry Loeb. Wretched conditions, abusive white supervisors, poor education, and low wages locked most black workers into poverty. Then two sanitation workers were chewed up like garbage in the back of a faulty truck, igniting a public employee strike that brought to a boil long-simmering issues of racial injustice. With novelistic drama and rich scholarly detail, Michael Honey brings to life the magnetic characters who clashed on the Memphis battlefield: stalwart black workers; fiery black ministers; volatile, young, black-power advocates; idealistic organizers and tough-talking unionists; the first black members of the Memphis city council; the white upper crust who sought to prevent change or conflagration; and, finally, the magisterial Martin Luther King Jr., undertaking a Poor People's Campaign at the crossroads of his life, vilified as a subversive, hounded by the FBI, and seeing in the working poor of Memphis his hopes for a better America.

Download or read book Jericho's Road written by Elmer Kelton and published by Forge Books. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Texas Ranger private Andy Pickard is assigned to help patrol the Texas-Mexico border country he rides directly into a deadly feud. At odds are two land and cattle barons - Jericho Jackson, whose great spread lies just north of the Rio Grande, and Guadalupe Chavez, whose domain lies south of the river. The men are alike in only one respect: their hatred for each other, a hate born at the time of the Alamo and the U.S.-Mexican War, when Mexican lands were confiscated by ruthless Americans. The old rivals have turned to preying on each others' cattle with resulting bloodshed on both sides of the river. Between the two camps, Big Jim McCawley's ranch seems almost symbolic of the opportunity for the people of the two nations to live together. McCawley is married to Guadalupe Chavez's sister, Juana -a fact that does not ingratiate him to either the Chavez or Jackson faction. To Andy Pickard, who as a child was taken captive by Comanches, old prejudices are familiar territory, but the Jackson-Chavez war is flaring out of control by the time he reaches the Ranger camp on the border in the company of fellow Ranger Farley Brackett. The two Rangers find themselves caught up in the feud, risking arrest for crossing the river into Mexico, and risking death for not heeding the warning sign at the edge of Jericho Jackson's domain: This is Jericho's Road. Take the Other. Inevitably, the cauldron boils over and the forces of Jericho Jackson and "Lupe" Chavez meet in bloody combat. In the midst of this battle on Mexican soil are Andy Pickard -- longing to court and marry Bethel Brackett and live a peaceful life as an ex-Ranger -- and Brackett himself, falling in love with Teresa, Big Jim McCawley's half-Mexican daughter. Jericho's Road, sixth book in Kelton's acclaimed Texas Ranger series, typifies "The right blend of action, drama, romance, humor and suspense" that Publishers Weekly said has made Kelton "a master of both plot and character development."

Book Synopsis Suffering and the Sovereignty of God by : John Piper
Download or read book Suffering and the Sovereignty of God written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2006-09-13 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last few years, 9/11, a tsunami, Hurricane Katrina, and many other tragedies have shown us that the vision of God in today's churches in relation to evil and suffering is often frivolous. Against the overwhelming weight and seriousness of the Bible, many Christians are choosing to become more shallow, more entertainment-oriented, and therefore irrelevant in the face of massive suffering. In Suffering and the Sovereignty of God, contributors John Piper, Joni Eareckson Tada, Steve Saint, Carl Ellis, David Powlison, Dustin Shramek, and Mark Talbot explore the many categories of God's sovereignty as evidenced in his Word. They urge readers to look to Christ, even in suffering, to find the greatest confidence, deepest comfort, and sweetest fellowship they have ever known.

Book Synopsis The Walls of Jericho by : Nancy Cherbeyla
Download or read book The Walls of Jericho written by Nancy Cherbeyla and published by . This book was released on 2012-09-03 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This true story was first introduced to the world stage on A & E's Cold Case Files. Now, Nancy Cherbeyla tells her emotional story of the tragic life she shared with her sister and her own story of survival, healing and hope since losing Sally. "On March 10, 1978, seven paragraphs in the Battle Creek Enquirer reported a six-year-old girl found dead in the bathtub at her home. It appeared to Battle Creek police that Sally Ann Chesebro drowned while playing with a toy. Her mother and stepfather said it was a tragic accident. It was so much more. "A quarter of a century later, the horrific events in that house began to surface as the Calhoun County Cold Case Homicide Team was able to gather evidence that supported a story of abuse, rape and murder. That was the story Sally?s sister, Nancy, told investigators. "Nancy was a year older, just seven at the time of her sister?s death. She and Sally lived in a house where they were beaten and frequently placed in a tub of icy water as punishment. ?It could be for anything, even looking at them wrong,? Nancy said. It was punishment dispensed by the mother and stepfather of the girls. That cold-water punishment was sometimes five or six times a week. "Sally?s final sadistic punishment was for opening a bottle of nail polish. She was beaten, forced into a tub of icy water, and held under by her parents until she died. Her stepfather and mother took Nancy to Sally?s grave and told Nancy she was the reason Sally died. "While seven year old Nancy Chesebro could not save her sister?s life, adult Nancy Spaulding did all she could to find justice for Sally?s murder. Nancy confronted her nightmarish childhood, her mother, and stepfather, and told police, prosecutors, and a jury what happened inside the house at 54 Jericho Road the night her sister died. "This is the story of one woman?s love for her sister, of her efforts to tell the world the truth about what happened, and why Sally Ann Chesebro died. It is a story of how one sister kept her promise and fought for justice." Trace Christenson
