The Shadow of Celene
Livy Prescott is a young wife dependent upon, beholden to, and manipulated by Celene, a slave. In 1860 Edward Prescott gallops into Livy Taylor's life racing his carriage down the main street of her tiny Pennsylvania town, winning a bet and her heart. After they wed, Livy is swept away to Merrywood, Edward's home in the hills of North Carolina. There Livy faces the daunting task of adjusting to her new life as Mistress of Merrywood and slave-owner. And there Livy encounters Celene, the beautiful slave cook of Merrywood, skilled in the healing arts and privy to the deepest secrets of the Prescotts. Gradually Livy learns the extent of Celene's influence and the hold she maintains over her master, causing Livy to question who is the real mistress of Merrywood. The Shadow of Celene is a tale of freedom and slavery, love and loss, trust and betrayal, and the courage needed to survive the madness unleashed by the savagery of war.
French Today
French Today is a profile of the French language in its social context. British and French linguists examine trends in French throughout the French-speaking world, and address issues around prescriptivism, gender and language, and regional languages and dialects. The collection includes overviews of work done in particular areas and deeper analyses of sociolinguistic questions. One theme is how to represent and interpret data relating to language varieties that have been marginalised. Another concerns the ways in which French is adapting to the future, whether as a language of new technology, or as a vehicular language on the continent. All chapters of this book are in English, with examples and quotations in French, and a mixture of references given in both languages. At the end of each chapter, there are also texts in French, serving as illustration and as pointers to further reading.

Read Between the Lies
On tour to promote his runaway bestseller, African American author Tariq Spiegel is a guest on Carol Sanders' popular, nationally televised talk show. There, Tariq reveals the story behind his book-a tale that's filled with friendship love, betrayal, and salvation. Tariq and Jamal Hammond have been like brothers for more than fifteen years. Tariq worships Jamal, a highly successful Houston defense attorney and charismatic ladies' man looking for everything but a long-term relationship. But things change when Tariq, the up-and-coming author often in Jamal's shadow, proposes to Anomie Beckford, a foreign-relations expert who works for the government. Afraid of losing his best friend, Jamal tests Tariq's decision with a bet that sends Tariq's world spinning downward. Questioned loyalties, deceit, and heartbreak follow for Tariq, who must realize that he can't achieve true happiness, within himself, in his friendships, or in love, until he accepts the power of Jesus and God in his life. Read Between the Lies is a passionate and compelling look at forgiveness, redemption, and commitment to faith.

Publisher Description
Who Was Who on TV
The information herein was accumulated of fifty some odd years. The collection process started when TV first came out and continued until today. The books are in alphabetical order and cover shows from the 1940s to 2010. The author has added a brief explanation of each show and then listed all the characters, who played the roles and for the most part, the year or years the actor or actress played that role. Also included are most of the people who created the shows, the producers, directors, and the writers of the shows. These books are a great source of trivia information and for most of the older folk will bring back some very fond memories. I know a lot of times we think back and say, "Who was the guy that played such and such a role?" Enjoy!
