Sister Samms and Sister Johnson
Luetta Johnson and Alberta Samms travel their neighborhood in an old blue Cadillac, touching many lives. They become blessedly free from two societally scarred spouses who wreak havoc on them, their children and the community. They tend their church, their garden and their Queendom touching broken souls, sometimes scolding, other times upholding. One husband becomes a statistic at a national park and the other succumbs under rare circumstances at the hands of his widow. Does learning the reason for becoming a widow make Luetta an accomplice to murder and Alberta a murderer? With a minimum of formal education but postgraduate degrees in mother wit, Samms and Johnson interact with everyone from officials to the homeless person needing bus fare. They scorn the misuse of the system and their sensibilities, while being titillated by a saucy friends skirmish in jail and the comeuppance of jack-legged preachers. Adventures from sharing a pew, to singing a solo, to sampling fabric, or a hospital stay, Luetta and Alberta live in a sometimes dark world, yet joyfully appreciate and revel in the light of a world thy have made through love, compassion and understanding.

The Battle of Alberta
Alberta has long been a big part of the frantic Canadian hockey scene, and even before Alberta became a province in 1905, the intense hockey rivalry between Calgary and Edmonton was in full swing. Long before the glory days of the '80s, teams from Edmonton and Calgary worked each other over with relish and passion, all the while creating a hockey rivalry unequalled anywhere. In The Battle of Albertathe rough-and-tumble relationship between two hockey hotbeds is presented in all its colourful glory. The century-long tussle got its start in 1895 when an all-star team from Calgary journeyed to Edmonton to take on the mighty Thistles and a team of North West Mounted Police pucksters. Calgary cam...
Wolves
Wolves are some of the world's most charismatic and controversial animals, capturing the imaginations of their friends and foes alike. Highly intelligent and adaptable, they hunt and play together in close-knit packs, sometimes roaming over hundreds of square miles in search of food. Once teetering on the brink of extinction across much of the United States and Europe, wolves have made a tremendous comeback in recent years, thanks to legal protection, changing human attitudes, and efforts to reintroduce them to suitable habitats in North America. As wolf populations have rebounded, scientific studies of them have also flourished. But there hasn't been a systematic, comprehensive overview of ...
The Life of Langston Hughes
February 1, 2002 marks the 100th birthday of Langston Hughes. To commemorate the centennial of his birth, Arnold Rampersad has contributed new Afterwords to both volumes of his highly-praised biography of this most extraordinary and prolific American writer. The second volume in this masterful biography finds Hughes rooting himself in Harlem, receiving stimulation from his rich cultural surroundings. Here he rethought his view of art and radicalism, and cultivated relationships with younger, more militant writers such as Richard Wright, Ralph Ellison, James Baldwin, and Amiri Bakara. Rampersad's Afterword to volume two looks further into his influence and how it expanded beyond the literary ...
