Realized Dream, An Autobiography
Realized Dream: Part One, is an autobiography about Gregory Prince when he was a boy growing up in Jamaica. The story outlines a vivid tale of his journey up to his late teen years. With his recollection, one can imagine being there and experiencing the changes, and actions he brings to life. He retraces family relations, life within the communities he lived, and the myriad experiences at the educational institutions he attended, including his transition from challenges with literacy. Other stories of failures, hope, faith, support, discipline, determination, dedication, and turning points were central to his personal and academic growth. The sports he played, football (soccer), chess, and rugby paved the way for him to represent his community, high school, sports club, and country. He also shares other massive athletic and sporting moments in non-contact sports he played. These cumulative experiences were instrumental in setting up the next exciting chapter in his life, and a part two to this autobiography.
Starting Something
This riveting coming of age saga unfolds in the beautiful parish of Portland, on Jamaica’s North Coast. Something happens to Runkus Black at Seashore Bay Preparatory. Double Trouble—two naughty boys and their marble playing friends are up to no good! Their shenanigans are so bad that Runkus becomes depressed and gets into fracas. His best friend as well as an academically astute girl give advice. However, Runkus is determined to get away from school—on a cruise with his parents. He falls to the deep, and a deadly shark . . .. Oh, that dolphin! The world hears of it. Runkus’s perspective changes. He rallies the four nerds and something dramatic happens. He even enters a competition, a...
Turning Point
Runkus Black and some of his teammates obtain scholarships and are enrolled at Kingston Metropolitan University (KMU). At KMU, the sporting arrangements are not what they thought it would be, plus the University is not known for its prowess in the intercollegiate football championship. KMU’s Students’ Guild, however, has some influence with football arrangements, but their limited support forces Runkus and his peers to become engaged in activities that senior students normally take on. Surprisingly, Runkus’s old nemesis Kennedy Edward Stephenson III (KES-III)—and his teammates from Castleton Academy are also attending KMU. For the first time, both sets of boys attend the same institution. Overzealous senior football players, and the freshmen vie for a place on the football team. Old rivalries, fraternities, jealousies, politics, seniority, and grudges are hurdles that stand in the way of unity. Underhanded tactics are employed, battles are waged, and sparks begin to fly. How do these issues get resolved?

American Zion: A New History of Mormonism
The first major history of Mormonism in a decade, drawing on newly available sources to reveal a profoundly divided faith that has nevertheless shaped the nation. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was founded by Joseph Smith in 1830 in the so-called “burned-over district” of upstate New York, which was producing seers and prophets daily. Most of the new creeds flamed out; Smith’s would endure, becoming the most significant homegrown religion in American history. How Mormonism succeeded is the story told by historian Benjamin E. Park in American Zion. Drawing on sources that have become available only in the last two decades, Park presents a fresh, sweeping account of the ...
