A sole pilgrim embarks on a quest to verify the truths of the Old Testament—and is murdered ever so close to the proof he seeks. A revelation that will remain undiscovered for decades . . . Turkey, present day. Scientists, historians, and preachers have dreamed of this moment for centuries. Now archaeologist Adam Livingstone is minutes away from a discovery that will catapult him into worldwide fame—and prove that Noah’s flood was no fairy tale. But as Adam begins the tedious work of unearthing the artifact, a secret cabal of financial and media giants cannot allow their diabolical plans to be destroyed—by letting the truth see the light of day . . . “[An] exciting thriller.” —Library Journal
This book is meant to lift people who face hardship and get low, and encourage them to find their way up by kneeling in prayer and allowing God to start the healing by revealing what matters the most: our relationship with him and the loved ones who inspire our desire to fight tribulation until jubilation is secured!
“A work of extraordinary imagination and sympathy, a journey from slavery to the mountaintop, perfectly realized.” —Ken Burns, American filmmaker Born on Emancipation Day, 1863, to a sharecropping family of black and Indian blood, Elijah Yancy never lived as a slave—but his self–image as a free person is at war with his surroundings: Spartanburg, South Carolina, in the Reconstructed South. Exiled for his own survival as a teenager, Elijah walks west to the Nebraska plains—and, like other rootless young African–American men of that era, joins up with the US cavalry. The trajectory of Elijah’s army career parallels the nation’s imperial adventures in the late 19th century: subduing Native Americans in the West, quelling rebellion in the Philippines. Haunted by the terrors endured by black Americans and by his part in persecuting other people of color, Elijah is sustained only by visions, memories, prayers, and his questing spirit—which ultimately finds a home when his troop is posted to the newly created Yosemite National Park in 1903. Here, living with little beyond mountain light, running water, campfires, and stars, he becomes a man who owns himself completely, while knowing he’s left pieces of himself scattered along his life’s path like pebbles on a creek bed. “Seen through the fresh eyes of buffalo soldier Elijah Yancy, Yosemite is Gloryland, his true home. Shelton Johnson has written a beautiful novel about Elijah’s journey.” —Maxine Hong Kingston, author of China Men and The Woman Warrior

His meticulous research into the biological, cultural, and historical aspects of this area provides a wealth of information. At the beginning of each chapter, the author offers personal reflections of the creek from his memories growing up in southeastern Ohio in the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. At the end of each chapter, he explores how the region has changed over the years. Backed with scientific evidence, the author’s thoughtful insights will inspire Ohio residents and others throughout the world to cultivate a deeper appreciation for the great diversity of life that is all around us, and a greater desire to take the time to observe and protect our natural world.

In Taking Root, Latin American women of Jewish descent, from Mexico to Uruguay, recall their coming of age with Sabbath candles and Hebrew prayers, Ladino songs and merengue music, Queen Esther and the Virgin of Guadalupe. Rich and poor, Sephardi and Ashkenazi, Jewish immigrant families searched for a new home and identity in predominantly Catholic societies. The essays included here examine the religious, economic, social, and political choices these families have made and continue to make as they forge Jewish identities in the New World. Marjorie Agosín has gathered narratives and testimonies that reveal the immense diversity of Latin American Jewish experience. These essays, based on first- and second-generation immigrant experience, describe differing points of view and levels of involvement in Jewish tradition. In Taking Root, Agosín presents us with a contemporary and vivid account of the Jewish experience in Latin America. Taking Root documents the sadness of exile and loss but also a fierce determination to maintain Jewish traditions. This is Jewish history but it is also part of the untold history of Brazil, Argentina, El Salvador, Ecuador, Chile, Peru, and all of Latin America.
