Book Description
If Genesis and Exodus had been written by a woman, what would they be like? Re-imagined from a woman's perspective, these familiar events delight the imagination and stir the soul in refreshing new ways. Miriam Therese Winter retells our ancient myths of Creation, the Garden, and the Flood, and chronicles the adventures of the remarkable women of Genesis and Exodus: Sarah and Hagar, Rebekah, Leah, Rachel, Miriam, and many more. According to the author, she is presenting us with an ancient manuscript that was written long ago by one of the many wives of Solomon. This woman writer, named Noah, feared the loss of women's perspective as written records began replacing oral traditions. She wrote these Chronicles to offer another side to the story of our shared myths and memories. The Chronicles of Noah and Her Sisters is wonderful spiritual reading, and a must for all women - and men - concerned about handing on the essentials of faith to their daughters and granddaughters.

Noah's Wife
Author: T K Thorne
Publisher: Teresa K Thorne
ISBN: 0983787808
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
ForeWord Reviews Book of the Year for Historical Fiction—Noah's wife is Na'amah, a beautiful and brilliant young girl of ancient Turkey wishes only to be a shepherdess on her beloved hills—a desire shattered by the hatred of her powerful brother, the love of two men, and a disaster that threatens her world. Na’amah tells her story and sees the world through the unique lens of a condition known (today) as Asperger Syndrome. Her savant abilities and penchant to speak truth forces her down a dangerous path in an age of change—a time of challenge to the goddess' ancient ways, when cultures clash and the earth itself is unstable. The Biblical account of Noah's wife only gives us a nameless woman who bears Noah's children and is with him in the ark. T.K. Thorne, an award winning author, has filled in the story with her imagination based on evidence of a great flood in the Black Sea region almost 7,000 years ago.

Noah turned his head as rain rolled down the window near his hospital bed. Then he suddenly felt something wet on the palm of his hand. It was a French bulldog burrowing under his hand. “That’s Link’s way of asking you to pet him!” said the dog’s handler. Noah stroked Link’s short fur and told the dog about how he broke his leg during a flood. As if sensing his sadness, Link licked Noah’s chin. For the first time in days, a broad smile appeared on Noah’s face.

The Lost History of the Little People
Author: Susan B. Martinez
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1591438047
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
Reveals an ancient race of Little People, the catalyst for the emergence of the first known civilizations • Traces the common roots of key words and holy symbols, including the scarlet biretta of Catholic cardinals, back to the Little People • Explains how the mounds of North America and Ireland were not burial sites but the homes of the Little People • Includes the Tuatha De Danaan, the Hindu Sri Vede, the dwarf gods of Mexico and Peru, the Menehune of Hawaii, the Nunnehi of the Cherokee as well as African Pygmies and the Semang of Malaysia All cultures haves stories of the First People, the “Old Ones,” our prehistoric forebears who survived the Great Flood and initiated the first sacred traditions. From the squat “gods” of Mexico and Peru to the fairy kingdom of Europe to the blond pygmies of Madagascar, on every continent of the world they are remembered as masters of stone carving, agriculture, navigation, writing, and shamanic healing--and as a “hobbit” people, no taller than 31/2 feet in height yet perfectly proportioned. Linking the high civilizations of the Pleistocene to the Golden Age of the Great Little People, Susan Martinez reveals how this lost race was forced from their original home on the continent of Pan (known in myth as Mu or Lemuria) during the Great Flood of global legend. Following the mother language of Pan, Martinez uncovers the original unity of humankind in the common roots of key words and holy symbols, including the scarlet biretta of Catholic cardinals, and shows how the Small Sacred Workers influenced the primitive tribes that they encountered in the post-flood diaspora, leading to the rise of civilization. Examining the North American mound-culture sites, including the diminutive adult remains found there, she explains that these stately mounds were not burial sites but the sanctuaries and homes of the Little People. Drawing on the intriguing worldwide evidence of pygmy tunnels, dwarf villages, elf arrows, and tiny coffins, Martinez reveals the Little People as the real missing link of prehistory, later sanctified and remembered as gods rather than the mortals they were.

Barksdale Chronicles in America
Author: Robert Groves
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1452059977
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
Barksdale Chronicles in America, Volume I is the first published book by Maj Robert A. Groves. His research into his maternal ancestors began at the millennium due, in large part, to the colorful family stories he recalled his mother and her siblings sharing during his childhood. Family chronicles define and preserve the contributions of ancestors to their families and communities. Through a study of our roots, we gain an appreciation of what helped shape us as individuals and citizens. This edition captures but a small part of the Barksdale family as it starts out in the New World. As followed through the lineage of John Hickerson Barksdale, early ancestors began forging a life for themselves in Virginia, South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, Texas and Arkansas. They courageously served their country in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, and the Civil War. Some dipped their toes into the political waters of our country and served their communities, states and nation as elected officials. Using their creativeness, they turned resources available to them into entrepreneurial opportunities in agriculture, merchandising, and manufacturing. Some heard a higher calling and faced the moral issues of the time from rural pulpits. Indeed, the early Barksdale ancestors played a vital role in shaping the communities where they settled and the environment into which following generations were born.
