As the Bell Rings - Southern Kids Say the Dadgummedest Things Sandy Sue Singley
Why have chicken soup when you can have Crawfish Etoufee? If laughter is the best medicine this book will cure you of anything that ails you. These stories come straight from the mouths of Louisiana’s finest school-age babes. Each story is true and drippin’ with true Southern charm. The stories were collected first hand over a 25 year period by a paraeducator in the Morehouse Parish Louisiana School System and kept in notebooks until they just begged to be let loose on the world. These stories have been told for years and everyone begged to have them in book form, so here they are just for you to enjoy. Be sure to grab a box of tissues to catch the tears of belly-splittin’ laughter to follow each and every story. You may even recognize your own child or grandchild in these pages.

Barefoot Kid from Lumbee County, A Douglas Wilson
Born the son of a sharecropper during the Great Depression, Douglas Wilson never knew how poor he was. Though his parents endured hard times, never once did he feel he lacked for anything. As a parent, he patterned his life after his own father, working hard and providing so that his children never knew the struggles to make ends meet. Now, as a grandfather of eight, he engages memories of his past through stories told to his grandchildren. As you walk memory lane with the author, may the memories that are your foundation come back and reflect fondness and joy for simpler times, times of being barefoot and poor and not knowing anything different.

Brick By Brick: The story, art and poetry of Bert F. Mann Bert Mann with Karen Stuckey Ellis
Brick by Brick is an unusually complex narrative and a fabulously intricate story that on the surface might appear to be a simplistic tale about a man who once volunteered his time to work with special-needs children at a local neighborhood homework center. Before long, however, a layer of intrigue is added as the reader comes to know Bert intimately through the powerful images of childhood, the places of escape, the lessons learned, and the mysteries unraveled. Ultimately this is a story of one man’s artistic creation of a window in time through which he journeys, finding the strength within himself to face the haunting images of his past; by doing so, he chooses to set in motion a personal process of healing as he faces his demons and tears down the walls of denial the same way in which they were built: Brick by Brick.

Concise History of Iran Saeed Shirazi
Never before has a book of this caliber (brief but thorough) been printed in English regarding the entire history of Iran. Although the writer does not claim to be a historian, he realized the need for just such a timely book. A Concise History of Iran sheds light on the heretofore unfamiliar and often unrecognized relationship between Persia and the world; it is filled with information in a historical sequence with accurate and multiple references that may be used academically. Unlike the United States, where separation of church and state is a mandated fact of the Constitution, in Iran, wise Clerics—religious Magi—have had and still have enormous political influence. These learned theologians and magistrates were respected for their religious wisdom and, therefore wisely and/or unwisely, trusted to be politically astute. While the Clerics may or may not outwardly run for the highest office, they judiciously choose who will run and, in some cases, they even appoint a succeeding ruler or influence the elections. The systems of choosing leadership in both The U.S. and Iran are vulnerable to mistakes. For example, the U.S. action in the Middle East has had some serious, unfortunate results, whatever the original intention was—for example, loss of innocent lives from West and East (the new Viet Nam in Afghanistan and Iraq) and the imminent danger of World War III.

Deadly Vows Helen Enos
On the surface, the town of Rockport, Illinois, is a quiet, medium-sized community. But the year before, the citizens had been terrorized by a series of grisly murders that continued unabated for months. Eventually, the killers were apprehended, and the people settled back to their normal existence. But when several young women are brutally murdered and mutilated, it seems that yet another killer (or killers) has taken up where the others left off. Once again, the police department and the district attorney must try to apprehend the murderer before he can claim any more lives.

Due Process Denied: Why the Fourteenth Amendment Never Became Part of the Constitution George Pierce Ritter
In 1865, the people of the South lay prostrate at the feet of victorious Union armies. Little did they realize at the time that they were about to lose much more than the Civil War. They were about to be shut out of the government of the United States. The result would be the Fourteenth Amendment, proposed by a Congress that had excluded representatives from almost one third of the states and ratified by reconstruction governments in the South established at the proverbial point of a bayonet. Proposal and ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment were anything but constitutional. Due Process Denied explains why.
