Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The View Upon the Mountain chronicles the path of a young boy as he journeys up a legendary mountain, only to realize the value of all that he has left behind. Through his Great Pilgrimage, he explores what happens when you achieve a goal that was never really yours, wrestles with the paradox of making love stay, and ultimately learns how to climb back down. A tale of love, loss, forgiveness, and the acceptance of one's fate, The View Upon the Mountain holds up a mirror to our own deepest selves, daring us to look away. A spiritual successor to such classic tales as Hesse's Siddhartha and Coelho's The Alchemist, The View Upon the Mountain provides a refreshing draught of goodness to the world-weary reader, enriching our hearts so that we may bravely embark on our own Great Pilgrimages. Like life itself, it is a story that fluctuates between buoyancy and weight, earnestness and cynicism, examining our darker side no less rigorously than our light. Admirers of plot symmetry, archetypes, and Jungian theory will be especially taken by this well-constructed tale, diamond-like in its multifaceted perfection. By juxtaposing one character's rock bottom with another's greatest ecstasy, Laemmle accentuates both the nuance and irony of life itself. A coming-of-age story to be enjoyed by children and adults alike, The View Upon the Mountain weaves aspects of fantasy, romance, adventure, and myth to create a vibrantly original tale that nevertheless reads like our most familiar bedtime stories, so adroitly does it cut directly to the heart of what makes us human. An epic portrayal of the eternal struggle between man and self that refuses to offer an easy way out, the reader must identify as both hero and villain intertwined, that frustrating and confounding tangle of parts that can only be named: the individual. Stuck in a pit of his own digging, Laemmle wrote this novella as a rope with which to pull himself free. Whether needing to revive one's courage, accept one's imperfections, forgive oneself for past mistakes, or turn regret into a blessing, every human has something to gain by reading this novella, if only they are willing to shed the dead weight that has been holding them back.

The Apache had one hope: vengeance. Out of the scattered remnants of the Apache tribes rose a man whose cunning, ferocity, and genuis for warfare would make him their leader in a last tragic struggle for survival. The Apache gave him their arms, their strength, and their absolute devotion. The white man gave him his name: Geronimo!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love, loss, and the memory of an otherworldly encounter haunt the days and nights of a Pennsylvania dairy farmer. Barely old enough to vote when he loses his parents in an accident and inherits the family farm, Jess Hazel struggles to find meaning in the life he has always loved. Unable to shake the memory of a strange light he has seen hovering on the mountain peak above his valley home, he embarks on a pilgrimage, a halting inner odyssey riddled with fits and false starts. Like the creek which cuts through the Allegheny foothills of its Western Pennsylvania setting, hope runs through every chapter of this novel. The beauty of the story lies in the unlikely people Jess encounters along the way, transmitters of a grace which at first hounds, then quietly eludes. Through events both tragic and joyous, Jess is led on a journey of self-discovery through ancestral sin, unexpected love, loss, holiness, compassion, forgiveness and redemption.

Book excerpt: Welcome back to Grace Valley, California, where the best things in life never change… Here in this peaceful community, folks look out for one another like family, though sometimes a little too well. In a town like this, it's hard to keep a secret—but Dr. June Hudson has managed to keep one heck of a humdinger.… Though visits from her secret lover, undercover DEA agent Jim Post, are as clandestine as they are passionate, somehow it fits with her demanding schedule as the town's doctor—a calling that requires an innate ability to exist on caffeine, sticky buns and nerves of steel. But how can a secret lover compete with a flesh-and-blood heartthrob from her past? June's old flame has just returned to town after twenty years—and he's divorced. June is seriously rattled. So when the town's most devoted wife takes buckshot to her husband and some human bones turn up in her aunt Myrna's backyard, she's almost happy for the distraction. Sooner or later, love will have its way in Grace Valley. It always does.

To get to Logan, he must brave prairie fires, buffalo stampedes, and Sioux war parties. But worse trouble waits, for a mysterious enemy shadows Sackett’s every move across the Dakotas and the Canadian Rockies. Tell Sackett has never abandoned another Sackett in need. He will bring aid to Logan—or die trying.

Book excerpt: In this masterpiece of nature writing, Nan Shepherd describes her journeys into the Cairngorm mountains of Scotland. There she encounters a world that can be breathtakingly beautiful at times and shockingly harsh at others. Her intense, poetic prose explores and records the rocks, rivers, creatures and hidden aspects of this remarkable landscape. Shepherd spent a lifetime in search of the 'essential nature' of the Cairngorms; her quest led her to write this classic meditation on the magnificence of mountains, and on our imaginative relationship with the wild world around us. Composed during the Second World War, the manuscript of The Living Mountain lay untouched for more than thirty years before it was finally published.

Book excerpt: Based on little-known true events, this astonishing account from Emmy and Peabody Award-winning journalist Jack Ford vividly recreates a treacherous journey toward freedom, a time when the traditions of the Old South still thrived—and is a testament to determination, friendship, and courage . . . Two decades before the Civil War, a middle-class farmer named Samuel Maddox lies on his deathbed. Elsewhere in his Virginia home, a young woman named Kitty knows her life is about to change. She is one of the Maddox family’s slaves—and Samuel’s biological daughter. When Samuel’s wife, Mary, inherits her husband’s property, she will own Kitty, too, along with Kitty’s three small children. Already in her fifties and with no children of her own, Mary Maddox has struggled to accept her husband’s daughter, a strong-willed, confident, educated woman who works in the house and has been treated more like family than slave. After Samuel’s death, Mary decides to grant Kitty and her children their freedom, and travels with them to Pennsylvania, where she will file papers declaring Kitty’s emancipation. Helped on their perilous flight by Quaker families along the Underground Railroad, they finally reach the free state. But Kitty is not yet safe. Dragged back to Virginia by a gang of slave catchers led by Samuel’s own nephew, who is determined to sell her and her children, Kitty takes a defiant step: charging the younger Maddox with kidnapping and assault. On the surface, the move is brave yet hopeless. But Kitty has allies—her former mistress, Mary, and Fanny Withers, a rich and influential socialite who is persuaded to adopt Kitty’s cause and uses her resources and charm to secure a lawyer. The sensational trial that follows will decide the fate of Kitty and her children—and bond three extraordinary yet very different women together in their quest for justice.
