Victoria Crosses on the Western Front
In the past, while visiting the First World War battlefields, the author often wondered where the various Victoria Cross actions took place. He resolved to find out. In 1988, in the midst of his army career, research for this book commenced and over the years numerous sources have been consulted. Victoria Crosses on the Western Front: Second Battle of Bapaume is designed for the battlefield visitor as much as the armchair reader. A thorough account of each VC action is set within the wider strategic and tactical context. Detailed sketch maps show the area today, together with the battle-lines and movements of the combatants. It will allow visitors to stand upon the spot, or very close to, where each VC was won. Photographs of the battle sites richly illustrate the accounts. There is also a comprehensive biography for each recipient, covering every aspect of their lives warts and all: parents and siblings, education, civilian employment, military career, wife and children, death and burial/commemoration. A host of other information, much of it published for the first time, reveals some fascinating characters, with numerous links to many famous people and events.

Howard University College of Dentistry at 140 Years:
Founded in 1881, Howard University College of Dentistry (HUCD) was one of the first United States dental schools to admit women equally as men. Now, HUCD celebrates one-hundred-and-forty years of educating minority dentists, dental specialists, and dental hygienists who practice in fifty states in America and fifty-three foreign countries. Howard University College of Dentistry 140 Years: Mission, Legacy, and Promise is an inspiring and informative look into the history of Howard University’s dental school and its mission to educate minority dental professionals who offer their skills to marginalized groups across the United States. It highlights how bleak the provision of black dental care was in the United States after the Civil War and how the HUCD has risen to meet a myriad of challenges for over a century. After two years of meetings, research, retrieval of archival materials, review of oral histories, and delving deep into the heart and soul of the dental school, three authors with close ties to HUCD share the college’s story with pride. The College of Dentistry’s mission, legacy, and promise still continue—Howard Forward!

A Miracle for St. Cecilia's
The citizens of Dorsetville are poor in worldly goods but rich in faith and compassion. For generations—long before the last wool mill closed five years ago—they have been bound together by St. Cecilia’s Catholic Church, which is set to close after mass on Easter Sunday. Father James Flaherty despairs of ever turning the parish finances around. What will become of his flock and beloved, ancient Father Keene, who had planned to live out his days at St. Cecilia’s? At the Country Kettle restaurant, waitress Lori Peterson needs her own miracle—a bone marrow match for her husband. Matthew Metcalf needs a miracle, too, now that his rash act of hacking into the high school computer has exposed embarrassing secrets. Delightful and moving, with a cast of endearing and quirky characters, A Miracle for St. Cecilia’s will warm hearts and enchant readers everywhere. “Break forth into singing! Here is a story of faith and community and hope beyond hope.” – Lynne Hinton, author of Friendship Cake and Garden of Faith
