Book Description
MEN OF GLORY The town of Glory—a good place to go for Christmas! Calgary lawyer Honor Templeman makes a shocking discovery after her husband's death. Parker Templeman had another wife—and two children! They lived in the small ranching community of Glory, and the children have apparently been left in the care of their uncle. Honor's determined to look into that situation. His sister, Sylvie, and Parker Templeman are dead, and Joe Gallant has no intention of handing over their children to Honor—no matter how attractive her finds her. Because neither love nor law will induce him to break the promise he made to Sylvie. But…if Honor married him, she could have a relationship with the kids. They'd be a family. They'd do family things—like ball games and school concerts…and Christmas. A cowboy town in cowboy country. This is a place a woman could love. These are men a woman could love!

Book Description
Abolishment of an old mafia tradition, a person must be born 100% Sicilian or Italian to be a member of the mafia. The book is about two nearly identical bi-racial brothers, their father is a black American. One brother is an black-Sicilian, born and raised in Sicily by his Sicilian mother and a Mafiosi member. The other brother, Senator Joseph Cicero, is a black Italian-American, a son of an Italian-American woman. U.S. Senator Cicero became president on November 4, 2008 and was inaugurated on the 20th day of January, 2009. He was sworn in as the 44th president of the United States of America, becoming the first black Italian-American to assume the position in the White House. The New York agents and my Italian co-workers said that I wouldn’t live to see an black American elected to become a president in the United States and I, Mr. G., truly believed them. They rejected my book in the spring of 2005 because of having unusual characters, one, an black American president and two, a mafia member. I was told that the American people wouldn’t believe that my fictional story was true because there never was and there will never be a U.S. black American president. Italian members of the Italian and Sicilian Cosa Nostras Mafiosi, from the Bronx to Kenosha-Wisconsin said to me that my character, the Sicilian could not have been a member of the mafia because he has black blood following through his veins, he wasn’t born whole. My readers tell me that Joseph Cicero, my fictional black American-Italian character resembles President Barack Obama, the 44th president of the United States of America. I started writing this book, “Born Whole” in 1998 it was finished on January 2004. I am now 72 years old.

Small-Town America
Author: Robert Wuthnow
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400846498
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 519
Book Description
A revealing examination of small-town life More than thirty million Americans live in small, out-of-the-way places. Many of them could have joined the vast majority of Americans who live in cities and suburbs. They could live closer to more lucrative careers and convenient shopping, a wider range of educational opportunities, and more robust health care. But they have opted to live differently. In Small-Town America, we meet factory workers, shop owners, retirees, teachers, clergy, and mayors—residents who show neighborliness in small ways, but who also worry about everything from school closings and their children's futures to the ups and downs of the local economy. Drawing on more than seven hundred in-depth interviews in hundreds of towns across America and three decades of census data, Robert Wuthnow shows the fragility of community in small towns. He covers a host of topics, including the symbols and rituals of small-town life, the roles of formal and informal leaders, the social role of religious congregations, the perception of moral and economic decline, and the myriad ways residents in small towns make sense of their own lives. Wuthnow also tackles difficult issues such as class and race, abortion, homosexuality, and substance abuse. Small-Town America paints a rich panorama of individuals who reside in small communities, finding that, for many people, living in a small town is an important part of self-identity.

Book Description
Tales from Beyond the Sunrise is a collection of imaginative and inspirational short stories. The characters in these tales find themselves facing amazing and at times, peculiar situations. Otherworldly occurrences are key elements that create an atmospheric unknown in each story, which aligns itself with underlining spiritual tones. Although these characters may be ordinary in every sense of the word, it is the notion of being thrusted into extraordinary circumstances that deems them anything but ordinary. Rather, through these arising events, inevitably become enlightened.
