Seacoast Life: An Ecological Guide to Natural Seashore Communities in North Carolina
This accessibly written and authoritative guide updates the beloved and much-used 1970s classic Seacoast Plants of the Carolinas. In this completely reimagined book, Paul E. Hosier provides a rich, new reference guide to plant life in the coastal zone of the Carolinas for nature lovers, gardeners, landscapers, students, and community leaders. Features include: * Detailed profiles of more than 200 plants, with color photographs and information about identification, value to wildlife, relationship to natural communities, propagation, and landscape use. * Background on coastal plant communities, including the effects of invasive species and the benefits of using native plants in landscaping. * A section on the effects of climate change on the coast and its plants. * A list of natural areas and preserves open to visitors interested in observing native plants in the coastal Carolinas. * A glossary that includes plant names and scientific terms. With a special emphasis on the benefits of conserving and landscaping with native plants, this guide belongs on the shelf of every resident and visitor to the coasts of the Carolinas.

"Still, the real rationale of a book like this is to validate the vision and the work of an artist, and this ambition is more than justified by page after page of dauntingly beautiful images, carefully arranged and faultlessly printed. If Maine is a state you hold dear, this is a book that says it all."--BOOK JACKET.
A sequel to his first book, Archie Stanley’s Journeys II offers alternative family migrations that parallel the DNA-based migrations described in Journeys. These alternative migrations branch off from the main family migration pathway from Africa to North America, and could account for many relatively recent archeological discoveries that seem to be in unexpected places, given the extremely accurate DNA Traces documented in the Genome Project of the National Geographic Magazine of human migrations. Crisscrossing the earth, these alternative migrations travelled varied directions and some met in unexpected and remote places. Fictional family members intermingled and exchanged stories of experiences with fictional natives over virtually the entire globe. Survival was the paramount objective across many generations of family members as they journeyed over millennia to faraway corners of our planet. Stories and discussions among the characters in Journeys II offer new theories of gravity, earth magnetic and electro forces, structured space energy grid, dating of ancient monuments, purpose of the Great Pyramid, age of the Great Sphinx, and possible sources and reasons for evidence that exists before our eyes all across the world. Based upon this worldwide evidence an exciting alternative pre-ancient history scenario is offered whose cultures exerted global influence and was based on two continents that no longer exist; rather, they were submerged 12,500 years ago in the areas of today’s two major oceans, the Atlantic and Pacific. These massive changes in our planet earth, were a result of incredible cosmic induced forces 12,500 years ago that virtually peppered our planet with near light speed particles and large projectiles that collided with or nearly collided with earth. The result was a near complete melting of the massive icecap that covered most of the northern hemisphere with subsequent huge tidal waves and massive flooding of continents, extinction of most of the large species of animals all across the earth, and near complete destruction of earth’s landscape, and complete destruction and submergence of the two former Atlantic and Pacific continents described in the previous paragraph. Brought to life pictorially by Google Earth maps, sketches, and custom full color illustrations, the stories take the reader’s emotions on several wild journeys that provoke deep thought on how evidence, including massive monuments, myths, chants, stories, carvings, religions, and unexplained damage of the earth and huge deposits of the bones of extinct animals all over the world came to be. It is recent anomalous archeologic discoveries all across the earth that drive the need for rewriting the history of the earth. The stories and ideas presented in Journeys II are in part intended to assist in bringing worldwide evidence to the reader’s attention and encourage new ideas of who created the evidence and what the evidence means.
