Largely autobiographical, the novel details the early years of struggle and hard work that went into surviving the tough Wild West._x000D_ The Homesteader – Jean Baptiste is a hard-working man whose only dream is to make a life for himself in Dakota. However, even as a Black pioneer, he is doomed to be separated from the love of his love due to racial laws prohibiting interracial marriages. Thus, to avoid the all-consuming loneliness, he instead decides to get married to Orlean. However, his new father-in-law is a nightmare from hell and although a preacher, all his attention is focused upon him rather than in the service of god. Can Baptiste survive the ordeal or will he succumb to the psychological pressures?

Publisher Description
Deuteronomy and the Judaean Diaspora
Ernest Nicholson draws together and expands a collection of his writings on Deuteronomy, presenting his challenging thesis that the book derived from thinkers and writers who lived among the Judaean exiles in Babylonia in the 6th century, and in significant ways represents a break with pre-exilic Israelite religion.
Covenant as Context
Ernest Nicholson's contribution to Old Testament study is here honoured by former pupils, colleagues, and friends. The topic of Old Testament covenant has been a long-standing focus of many of his publications and it is wholly appropriate that it should serve as a framework for this collection.
God and His People
God's covenant with Israel has been a central theme in understanding the Old Testament from ancient times, but in the last hundred years it has been a particularly prominent issue in critical biblical study. In this book Professor Nicholson argues that, while in some important respects theposition today regarding the covenant is much the same as it was for leading scholars a century ago, in other ways the intervening debate has made it possible to see far more clearly just how crucial the covenant idea was in the development of what is distinctive in the faith of Israel.
