Join a group of young people in their rendezvous with destiny as they experience the turbulent times of the Great Depression and World War II while growing up in Wheeling, West Virginia.

They experienced the highs and lows and crossed many boundaries as they call upon “The Spirits of America” to tell their story.

This book describes the first attempt by the English to gain a foothold in today's United States, 22 years before Jamestown, Virginia. These Elizabethans investigated the natural resources of Virginia and North Carolina. Their positive findings encouraged the English to try again at Jamestown. American technology began in 1585 with a make-shift assay furnace in an unlikely spot—a small island inside the Outer Banks of North Carolina. This book describes what the noted archaeologist Ivor Noël Hume calls “America’ First Science Center.” But this name belies the humble birth of our technology in a small shed formed of horizontal logs. The area of technological activity has been pin pointed by archaeologists. However, the location on Roanoke Island of the First English Settlement in America is still disputed. According to government historians, it was located at Fort Raleigh National Historic Site. However, this volume casts doubt on the official line: "In this book, The Search for the First English Settlement in America, Historian Gary Grassl re-examines the evidence both archaeologically and documentary and puts forth a convincing argument that at the Fort Raleigh site seeing should not be believing. In so doing, he makes a major contribution to the annals of Roanoke Island. At the same time, he addresses the still vexing question of where to look for the archaeological footprints left by both the first and second colonizing efforts." These are the words of Noel Hume, America's foremost authority on early English colonization. This book reads like a mystery novel, and the readers is encouraged to play historical detective. The author examines clues on the ground and in ancient documents. He offers evidence--pro and con. But the challenge for the reader lies in reaching his own conclusions about some intriguing mysteries at the beginning of our country.

Adam Kindred was the sole survivor of a German ambush near the Marne in 1918. He held his dying buddy, Arthur "BB" Strayhorn, Jr., in his arms as he screamed for his mother. Four years later, Adam is the pastor of a rural Kentucky church. The sounds of battle are gone, but the nightmares of that dreadful day remain. Now, as a storm rages, someone is out there with murderous intent."It's a mixture of real life events and places, with elements of fiction, but author Edwin Lewis won't tell you which is which" - Paul Hanak, "Benton (KY) Tribune Courier. "

When North Irish separatist, Sean Dunnigan, accidentally wounds a bystander during an attack on a sensitive military project, he is torn with guilt. After visiting her in the hospital, ostensibly to assure himself that the victim, Judith Fenley, will survive, he becomes obsessed. When Judith is released from the hospital Sean approaches her again. Their relationship is cautious at first, but they are soon deeply in love. There are barriers to face; she is a protestant of English parents. He is catholic. Little by little they face their differences; religion, politics, the whole issue of Ulster independence, his role as a freedom fighter and how best to end it. Just as it seems that their problems are resolved and a new life lies ahead, however, tragedy strikes. The story ends with a twist from a totally unanticipated angle; a hint that there may be hope for the future.
