Book excerpt: IN THE remote hills of northern Scotland dwelt the clan of Murdock. Of it, one man, John, the generations bred to attunement, so that he, alone of all his people, felt and must respond to the first faint lift of the wave. Therefore, he took ship and sailed west, to better his condition, he thought and said, though his condition was well enough. He landed on the New England coast. There he hewed him a farm from the forest and married and prospered and in due time raised a family. He became a selectman, and afterwards an assemblyman in the legislature. He lived to a good old age, content with his establishment. This was in 1731. To his numerous children he left a prosperous estate, but to one, Luke, he bequeathed, unknown to himself, also certain hormones, so that when, in the '70s, the rhythm again surged westward Luke was borne on it over the Alleghanies with Boone into the Dark and Bloody Ground, to better his condition, he said, though his condition, too, was well enough to satisfy his brothers.

Book excerpt: Most of us have no idea where we’re going most of the time. Perfect. “Celtic Christians had a name for the Holy Spirit–An Geadh-Glas, or ‘the Wild Goose.’ The name hints at mystery. Much like a wild goose, the Spirit of God cannot be tracked or tamed. An element of danger, an air of unpredictability surround Him. And while the name may sound a little sacrilegious, I cannot think of a better description of what it’s like to follow the Spirit through life. I think the Celtic Christians were on to something…. Most of us will have no idea where we are going most of the time. And I know that is unsettling. But circumstantial uncertainty also goes by another name: Adventure.” --from the introduction

Book excerpt: A cataclysmic solar storm causes the most devastating calamity in human history. All modern machines and electronics are suddenly ruined and inoperable, crashing civilization into the dark ages. The fabric of modern society unravels in mere days as the complex network of communication, transportation, and food distribution is permanently destroyed. Panic ensues as food shortages and hunger overtake the major population centers. Riots, looting, and anarchy begin in the inner cities, but soon spread to the suburbs. With the worst winter on record hitting the eastern United States, it soon becomes clear that in just a few months most everyone will be dead. Even before the solar storm disaster struck, Adam Reynolds was a broken man, falling deep into the dark abyss of alcoholism. As a former Green Beret, he had seen enough war and suffering for a lifetime. At the time of the solar storm, he was living as a recluse in the woods of Maryland, forty miles north of Washington, D.C. At first, he felt as though he could ride out the coming famine and anarchy by relying on his well-stocked liquor cabinet and food supply. But circumstances compel Adam to pack what he can carry and to start a trek to flee the onslaught of hundreds of thousands of starving refugees. Adam's journey turns out to be cathartic as he goes through intense alcoholic withdrawals and fighting for his life against vicious survivors.While the effects of the solar storm were killing most of the planet, it had saved Adam from drinking himself to death. With each passing day his strength and hardiness increased. As his metamorphous continued Adam approached the point of turning feral. Then Adam comes upon a band of brutal survivors chasing a lone Amish woman in the woods of Pennsylvania with evil intentions. Returning to his spirit of humanity, Adam intervenes and saves her. In saving this young woman he now has a traveling companion. Together Adam and Rebecca will face the worst of nature and the worst of human nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Korean Wild Geese Families: Gender, Family, Social, and Legal Dynamics of Middle-Class Asian Transnational Families in North America explores the experiences of middle-class Korean transnational families, whose mothers and children migrate abroad for children’s education while fathers remain in Korea and economically support their families, throughout transnational separation: before separation, during separation, and after reunification. It discusses the themes of (1) changes in wild geese parents’ relative gender statuses, housework patterns, and spousal relationships; (2) changes in mothering/fathering practices and intergenerational relationships; and (3) wild geese families’ settlement and integration in the host societies and re-adaptation to Korea after family reunification. Se Hwa Lee interviewed mothers in both the United States and Canada, as well as fathers in Korea, to compare the effects of immigration policies between the two countries in North America and present gender-balanced explanations. Se Hwa Lee also sheds light on Asian documented immigrants’ hardships and different degrees of empowerment and incorporation in the host societies according to legal status, employment, additional education, and co-ethnic community membership. This book offers readers valuable venues to enhance their understanding of increasingly diverse transnational families in North America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jan De Boort is a vicious by-product of the Apartheid system of South Africa, who discovers diamonds by accident in a remote area of the Transvaal. In order to mine them, he must first destroy an entire village of locals. The mass murderer may have gotten away with it, except two villagers escape and live to tell the rest of the world. His actions come to the attention of the International Court of Justice, which places an international warrant of arrest for crimes against humanity against De Boort. Paul Blair from the United Nations is given the task of executing this warrant. But the criminal escapes to South America to live in anonymity. Feeling secure, he creates an illegal drug manufacturing plant to further his criminal empire. Once again, it is Blair, a former U.S. Special Forces officer and now a civil and mining engineer working for the U.N., who is asked to track De Boort. But his trail has gone cold in Africa. In his usual fashion, Blair tracks De Boort to South America, and the game is on.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether as sources of joy and pleasure to be fed, counted, and watched, as objects of sport to be hunted and killed, or as food to be harvested, wild birds evoke strong feelings. Sean Nixon traces the transformation of these human passions for wild birds from the early twentieth century through the 1970s, detailing humans’ close encounters with wild birds in Britain and the wider North Atlantic world. Drawing on a rich range of written sources, Passions for Birds reveals how emotional, subjective, and material attachments to wild birds were forged through a period of pronounced social and cultural change. Nixon demonstrates how, for all their differences, new traditions in birdwatching and conservation, field sports, and bird harvesting mobilized remarkably similar feelings towards birds. Striking similarities also emerged in the material forms that each of these practices used to bring birds closer to people – hides and traps, nets and ropes, and binoculars. Wide ranging in scope, Passions for Birds sheds new light on the ways in which wild birds helped shape humans throughout the twentieth century, as well as how birds themselves became burdened with multiple cultural meanings and social anxieties over time.
