Where Angels Roost
Author: Larry C. Scallons
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 1607914115
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
It is the spring of 1932 during the Great Depression. Jonathon Jackson's mother can't afford to keep him in Dallas, and as a puny twelve-year-old kid, he can't get a job. She buys him a Continental Bus ticket and sends him to East Texas to live with her parents. Through the voice of Jonathon "Sonny" Jackson, this story captures the bond between a boy and his family, a boy and his horse, and the innocence of adolescent love. Scallons genuinely depicts life during the Great Depression as one of hard work, hope and dreams. Unlike mainstream depression-era history, Scallons remembers the humor, love of God, laughter and tears with his writing set in this great time of trial for our country. Larry C. Scallons was born in the late 1920s on a cotton farm outside of Dallas, Texas. A Second World War and Korean War veteran, Scallons has lived all over Texas and travelled the world. He is a successful businessman who has written several short stories and is currently working on another novel.

Barrio Walk
Author: Ruben Gonzales
Publisher: Elm Hill
ISBN: 1400327741
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 162
Book Description
His life changes after he is unexpectedly left in Los Angeles at the age of fourteen. His aging grandparents live in the middle of the rugged City Terrace barrio in East LA. He is homesick and has trouble dealing with a demanding grandmother showing early symptoms of Alzheimer's. He plans to ride his bicycle 440 miles back to Phoenix, when God changes his plan. He visits a seminary in Compton, CA and makes a hasty decision to become a priest. He spends his first two years of high school at Dominguez Seminary. After he decides to quit his quest for the priesthood, the book describes the struggles of re-entering into a "normal" adolescence in the barrio of Phoenix. Most of his experiences are centered on working in a dysfunctional job environment at a nearby grocery store. As the young man continues into his latter teenage years, he begins to change gradually for the worse. He discovers his fondness of alcohol that later becomes an addiction. His struggles continue as he tries to figure out his purpose in life. He is on the verge of getting into serious trouble with the law in various situations. These include underage drinking, almost getting caught in an attempt to steal a car battery and has an alcohol related motor vehicle accident. His life becomes more complicated as he adds a substance to enhance his drinking ability. His life is in a downward spiral. He is rescued from all of this when he escapes the barrio by joining the Navy. The purpose of the book is to show others with similar beginnings what brought him to believe in the manner he currently does. It is not meant to say, "The way I believe is right, and you are wrong" or to put down anyone’s beliefs. The book is intended to encourage the reader to take a closer look at what they truly believe. Scripture is used to shine light on Jesus as the way to the Father. It is emphasized the way explicitly and not one of the ways to the Father. Barrio Walk is a story of Hope interspersed with humor and scripture. The book shows glimpses of the future with the sharing of the author's born-again experience much later in life. The final chapter is one of triumph as it describes his father’s acceptance of Christ and his "jump" into Eternal life at his moment of death.
