Adopted Land, Beloved Land
Both informative and engaging, Adopted Land, Beloved Land: The Peña-Lara Story depicts the author’s family history, while also telling the story of how a Mexican family successfully assimilated into the United States, adopting the American way of life, though never loosing sight of their Hispanic heritage. Having no choice but to flee what was then a war-ravaged Mexico during the Mexican Revolution, author Christopher Peña’s paternal grandparents and four of his uncles crossed the border at Laredo in 1915. Once in the States, four additional children were born, including his father - totaling seven boys and a girl. Six of the boys went on to serve during the Second World War, including one who was wounded at Iwo Jima. Adopted Land, Beloved Land: The Peña-Lara Story chronicles Peña’s father’s roots in Mexico starting in the 1860s, the Mexican Revolution, life in Monterrey, history of and family life in Laredo, the military service of the six boys during the Second World War, and the post-war years of the family, ending in 2009.

Doris Lessing
Throughout her life, Doris Lessing broke the rules in both her her personal life and within the accepted mores of literature. A trailblaser of the women's movement and an early experimenter with drugs, she gained notoriety in the sixties with her first novel The Grass is Singing, and subsequently with her explosive Golden Notebook and the Children of Violence series. At the age of eighty she remains part of the avant garde.
Crossfire
The explosive search for the truth about who killed JFK, "the final word until 2039-when government files on the case can be unlocked." (Kirkus) Will we ever know the truth about the Kennedy assassination? In Crossfire, Jim Marrs demonstrates that the facts are all there-they just need to be pieced together. Offering a wealth of evidence, including rare photos, documents, and interviews, Marrs, a veteran Texas journalist, reveals the telltale signs of the conspiracy: early government manipulation of the famous Zapruder film, falsification of evidence, the intimidation of witnesses after the assassination, the theft of Oswald's identity during the countdown to the tragedy, and much more. Meticulously researched and brimming with new information, Crossfire is sure to remain the most comprehensive account of this epochal American crime.
A Lamb for a Man
All people share one thing in common. Regardless of race, religion, or creed, ultimately, people want to know the truth. In A Lamb for a Man, Frank Mendolia recounts his own search for the truth about the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Seemingly by accident, Frank came across information in a technical journal that caused him to question the official explanations of the assassination of President Kennedy. This led him on a quest to find out what really happened to those three famous figures from the 1960s. After thoroughly investigating these assassinations, Frank decided to apply the same methods to answer the question of his ultimate salvation. He knew that something was missing from his spiritual life, similar to that which was missing from the official explanations of the 1960s assassinations. Frank's unwavering quest for truth in all areas of his life led him to stunning realizations about the great things God can do in the lives of those who are open to his truths. Follow Frank on his unprecedented journey as he finds out what it really means to commit one's life to truth and to God's Son.

WRONG TURN: The Fifth Season of Love
Using the Bible (especially the Gospels) as a source of consolation for the believed potential devastation that would result in the Wrath of God once seen imminent through Global Warming, one is led through by the author to view positive signs of God’s mercy and a new City of God that the Bible promises in Revelations. The dolphins trapped in our rivers were our delight as we witnessed the twists and turns brought upon life through our eco-systems and society. Also a film-maker, Risoli-Black details this additional dialog in the novel with anecdotes and criticisms of films of the fifties, sixties and seventies when one had choices of decent role models with ideal standards, not idols that led away from God. WRONG TURN: The Fifth Season of Love is a novel of true events where the townsfolk are the heavies that recall plots like Peyton Place and Town Without Pity. Also includes the novella, “The Song of the Bow” about the love between Jonathan and David, a love greater than the love of women.
