Book Description
Fiction. Native American Studies. MIKO KINGS: AN INDIAN BASEBALL STORY is an homage to the dusty roads and wind-blown diamonds of America's first moving picture about baseball, His Last Game. Just as Henri Day and his team, the Miko Kings, are poised to win the 1907 Twin Territories' Pennant against their archrivals, the Seventh Cavalrymen from Fort Sill, pitcher Hope Little Leader finds himself embroiled in a plot that will destroy him and the Indian team. Only the town's chimeric postal clerk, Ezol Day, understands the outcome of Hope's last game and how it will affect Indians and baseball for the next four generations. Set in Indian Territory that is about to become part of Oklahoma, MIKO KINGS tells of the turbulent days before statehood when white settlers and gamblers are swindling the Indians out of their land and what has already happened will change its course. "They're stories that travel now as captured light in someone else's telescope," Ezol Day will tell the woman who should have been her granddaughter. In MIKO KINGS, LeAnne Howe bends the pitch of time to return us to the roots of a national game.

Book Description
Lumani is a kingdom with an obstructed destiny, some would say. Baluma, people of Lumani, are a people with steadfast spirituality, fervid traditional and cultural values, and beholden to an abounding history. They survive the threat of the slave takers, but by the end of the nineteenth century, their society is thrown into turmoil with the cobra invasion. In the midst of the confusion and chaos, heroes rise and fall as their societal fabric is thrown apart. The twentieth century ushers in with the trumpet of an elephant new challenges for a people completely oblivious to the challenges of the world without. The peoples resilience is repeatedly put to the test, and new heroes come forth who seem ordained for victory against the cobras, but through it all, will they make light of the cobras venom? The 1950s are decisive years in the kingdoms history that pave a path for the twenty-first century, giving the Baluma yet another chance to determine their own destiny. Will they make the same mistakes? Or will they learn from history? Or perhaps, sow the seeds for a prosperous new beginning?

1 Kings
Author: John Woodhouse
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433524538
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 674
Book Description
The book of 1 Kings outlines the rise and fall of ancient Israel through the stories of fourteen kings. It is a book of great victories and devastating failures. In its pages are violence, betrayal, power, and politics. But no matter how great the accomplishments or evil the deeds, none of these kingdoms built by human kings could last. John Woodhouse walks us through this book passage by passage as it reveals how God's purpose for the kings reaches far beyond what they could accomplish in their lifetimes. Their lives are part of a greater story, bearing witness about the King of kings, Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world—building and strengthening our faith as we set our eyes on the kingdom that will last forever.
