Ask any Appalachian the question, “When is Appalachia most beautiful?” Every Appalachian will answer, “During autumn, when the leaves of Appalachia’s trees are dying.” Appalachians believe the beauty of their landscape is almost heaven. With the honor of officiating nearly 1000 funerals, Pastor Kevin Cain offers life in the midst of death. In As She Is Dying, Kevin Cain writes, “I have given my life to bring hope to a people who have little reason to hope. Maybe Appalachians have allowed our hills’ majesty and grandeur to blind us from coal dust and addiction. Yet, I do see hope. I see hope in what is dying. I see hope in what is dead. I see hope in what remains. Yes, death has...
In the late forties and early fifties, Beverly Hills was a small, conservative community with safe, tree lined streets, and was famous for movie stars and one lawyer - the fabled Jerry Geisler. This book is a fictionalized, but authentic, inside view of the workings of his office, and his world, seen through the eyes of his associate counsel.

In those days, criminal cases were defended on the merits, not by invoking intellectually dishonest technicalities concerning police procedure. It was an honest, rockem, sockem, intellectual battle, and may the smartest, or lu...
Chucky and Mother were home the day the deliveryman brought the crate into their living room. They could not imagine what might be in such a big box, but Mother let little Chucky open the crate by himself even though he was only three years old. Inside was the most beautiful puppy he had ever seen. Chucky named the pup Ginger, and she became part of their family. From the moment they met, Chucky and Ginger loved one another; the bond between them would last for many years. During the summer of 1952, Chucky, Ginger, and their whole family prepared to move from their home in Kansas to a new home in Indiana. Before making the big trip, though, it was decided: they would all spend the summer in North Carolina. Grandmother and Granddaddy South lived on a tobacco farm, and upon Chucky's arrival, the adventures begin. Chucky and his sister Sandy explore to their hearts' content. Even uncles and aunts join in the fun as one loving family spends a magical summer together.
