Book Description
#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER Terry Fox defined perseverance and hope for a generation of Canadians. Forty years after Terry's run ended, Forever Terry reflects what Terry's legacy means to us now, and in the future. To mark the 40th anniversary of the Marathon of Hope, Forever Terry: A Legacy in Letters recounts the inspiration, dedication, and perseverance that Terry Fox embodied, and gives voice to an icon whose example spoke much louder than his words. Comprising 40 letters from 40 contributors, and edited by Terry’s younger brother Darrell on behalf of the Fox family, Forever Terry pays tribute to Terry's legacy, as seen through the eyes of celebrated Canadians ranging from Margaret Atwood, Bobby Orr, Perdita Felicien, Jann Arden, and Christine Sinclair, to those who accompanied Terry on his run, Terry Fox Run organizers, participants, supporters, and cancer champions. Appearing alongside never-before-seen photos of their hero, their reflections reveal connections that readers would never have expected, and offer a glimpse into the way goodness and greatness inspire more of the same. Forever Terry is a testament to the influence one brave man has had on the shape of Canadian dreams, ambitions, and commitment to helping others. Author proceeds support the Terry Fox Foundation, which has raised over $800 million for cancer research. Contributors include Hayley Wickenheiser, Tom Cochrane, Darryl Sittler, Shawn Ashmore, Doug Alward, Nadine Caron, Douglas Coupland, Rick Hansen, Sidney Crosby, Akshay Grover, Lloyd Robertson, Bret Hart, Leslie Scrivener, Isadore Sharp, Wayne Gretzky, Jim Pattison, Catriona Le May Doan, Malindi Elmore, Michael Bublé, Silken Laumann, Steve Nash, Karl Subban, and Marissa Papaconstantinou, among many others.

No Storm Lasts Forever
Author: Terry A. Gordon, Dr.
Publisher: Hay House, Inc
ISBN: 1401939864
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
As a cardiologist, Dr. Terry Gordon dealt with life-and-death circumstances on a daily basis. He learned that life is precious and tenuous; it can change in an instant. Such a dramatic shift occurred when his son, Tyler, was involved in a car accident, sustaining a severe spinal-cord injury that left him paralyzed. Leading his family through the experience, Terry’s journey resulted in a spiritual awakening to a clearer understanding of life and the truths it has to offer. Terry has learned that our experiences become calamities only if we make the conscious decision to make tragedies out of them. Rather than lamenting the so-called adversities, we can choose to be grateful for them, embracing them as gifts from the Divine. These gifts provide fertile soil for growth and enlightenment, offering us the opportunity to transform turmoil, disappointment, and suffering into understanding, insight, and resolve . . . and such gifts are presented to you in No Storm Lasts Forever.

Rebellion Now and Forever
Author: Terry Rugeley
Publisher: Stanford University Press
ISBN: 0804771308
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 483
Book Description
This book explores the origins, process, and consequences of forty years of nearly continual political violence in southeastern Mexico. Rather than recounting the well-worn narrative of the Caste War, it focuses instead on how four decades of violence helped shape social and political institutions of the Mexican southeast. Rebellion Now and Forever looks at Yucatán's famous Caste War from the perspective of the vast majority of Hispanics and Maya peasants who did not join in the great ethnic rebellion of 1847. It shows how the history of nonrebel territory was as dramatic and as violent as the front lines of the Caste War, and of greater significance for the larger evolution of Mexican society. The work explores political violence not merely as a method and process, but also as a molder of subsequent institutions and practices.

Publisher: Gatekeeper Press
ISBN: 9781642374469
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
On a sunny fall morning in Southern Indiana, artist Ben Manning has just bought a house that continues to be occupied by its previous owner, Anna Atwood. At first, he thinks the image of the young woman on the stairway is an illusion, a distortion of light and shadow. As days pass, Anna's appearances begin to frighten both Ben and his friend Jenna Newland, especially after Anna warns them that the house is a living thing with unimaginable powers. After learning Anna's incredible secret, Jenna realizes Ben is slipping into another time, and that his obsession with this enigmatic woman is evident in the portrait he is painting--a portrait of a woman without eyes. After continued paranormal occurrences, both inside and outside Atwood House, Dr. Adrian White and parapsychologist, Liz Raymond, attempt to solve what has become a mystery as impossible as it is provocative. Despite Anna's warning that something monstrous is buried beneath the lawns of Atwood House, digging begins, and what's uncovered is more shocking than any of them anticipated. An eccentric scientist, Charlie Chase, connects his work on a classified government project known as Firefly, to the strange occurrences at Atwood House. A government man, known only as Smith, wants to use Chase's research to establish military hegemony. Even when the truth is revealed, it suggests realities that not one of them is prepared to accept It is knowledge so extraordinary that it challenges predominate theories of space and time and becomes a major threat to national security. Strange happenings, profound revelations, and exciting character interactions are guaranteed to keep readers engaged in this page-turning adventure, which brings the paranormal closer to scientific fact. Above all else, Spider Lines remains a sensitive love story about a man fascinated by the mystery of Anna Atwood who is intent on turning him away from the love of the only woman who can save him.
