Book Description
Most children love to hear stories, especially at bedtime. The favorite story of my two sons was told them by their father, over and over again, of which they never tired: HOW HE CAME OVER TO AMERICA FROM SCOTLAND ON A BIG BOAT. My purpose in writing this story now, of my voyage to Africa on a freighter, is that my grandchildren and great grandchildren might enjoy hearing of some of my experiences, which in the providence of God, have taken place in my life. Some statistics and a little information was acquired from the library before leaving for the various countries. This has been interwoven in my travelogue all of which was written on board ship.

Book Description
Ethan Randall seemingly has a perfect life. Girls are crazy about him; all the guys want to be his friend-what more could a teenage boy want? Ethan has no idea his idyllic life is about to hit rock bottom. While on a mission one evening to seek revenge on a rival, Ethan and his friend, Anthony Williams, are attacked by a gigantic, wolf-like creature. Although the two boys manage to escape, Ethan soon lapses into a brief coma of sorts, leading to the eventual discovery that, whether he likes it or not, he has transformed into a werewolf. Ethan tries to carry on as if everything is normal, but when he and his rival get into a fight, Ethan loses control and kills him. Even worse, three more people die in mysterious wolf at-tacks. Ethan believes he has no one but himself to blame, but his best friend, Anthony, wonders if someone else is responsible for the killings. In this exciting, suspenseful tale, Ethan must find a way to protect everyone he cares for before they all end up victims of the menacing monsters that lurk in the shadows of the night-just waiting to pounce.

Book Description
The Crooked Shadows in heaven is based on an actual incident, reported in Chathur’s local newspapers on 19th January 2005. It’s about Sindhu, a home nurse attached to Jayan family and who, under strange circumstances, was implicated in the murder of her beloved husband (‘Yetta’) and jailed. The author’s curiosity in this case was kindled by Unni, his friend and well-wisher, who happened to know her. This book is a culmination of a series of interviews with Sindhu, who is currently serving her life sentence in Kannur Jail. Another interesting element is the addition of short but crisp extracts from Sindhu’s personal diary, which was safely preserved by Sushma Chechi–Jayan’s wife. The story speaks about how Sindhu, a highly religious, god-fearing, innocent and kindhearted yet adamant woman, was very attached to her lover-turned-husband. She was so blindly in love with him that, even years after his demise, she refused to believe that her ‘Yetta’ was unfaithful to her. The enthralling events of her life are captured in this rather long but interesting book, written in the first person-exactly how she would narrate the events of her 37 years long eventful life. This book is dedicated to Sindhu with the hope that someday, she will read it-her own life story.

Book Description
Beloved as the family storyteller, Dorothy Winthrop Bradford left behind at her death in 1987 diaries, letters, scrapbooks and memorabilia that date back to the Civil War and provide a picture of a way of life long gone - of a period when leisure time was plentiful and cars were few, when her hometown of Hamilton, Massachusetts was open country and Boston a closed society. These materials provide an intimate view of the vanished lifestyle of the upper classes between the two world wars. At the heart of the story is Dorothy Bradford's own life, and the 82 years she spent in the small town where she was born. It was a life, however, set against the vast canvas of her extened family, whose stories transport the reader back to colonial times, where one of her ancestors was the first governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, and far across America and to the Caribbean, Europe, and Africa. From the Civil War to the Second World War, from turn-of-the-century Puerto Rico to the glories of the still-unspoiled West, the book is a virtual who's who of American h istory, filled with cameos by Teddy Roosevelt, Edith Wharton, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Henry James, Thomas Jefferson, and many more. Richly illustrated with more than 300 photographs, this intriguing volume looks at a woman who's life may have seemed, on the surface, narrow and predictable, but in reality, touched upon many of the great currents of American history.
