The Beast
Judge Benjamin Barr Lindsey’s exposé of big business’s influence on Colorado and Denver politics, a best seller when it was originally published in 1911, is now back in print. The Beast reveals the plight of working-class Denver citizens—in particular those Denver youths who ended up in Lindsey’s court day after day. These encounters led him to create the juvenile court, one of the first courts in the country set up to deal specifically with young delinquents. In addition, Lindsey exposes the darker side of many well-known figures in Colorado history, including Mayor Robert W. Speer, Governor Henry Augustus Buchtel, Will Evans, and many others. When first published, The Beast was considered every bit the equal Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle and sold over 500,000 copies. More than just a fascinating slice of Denver history, this book—and Lindsey’s court— offered widespread social change in the United States.
Love, Death and Beyond
Every reader will be able to relate to this beautifully written memoir. Helen was always almost afraid of living, knowing that a dark void of oblivion was waiting for her, her family and beloved pets in the end. Having rejected religion, thinking mediums were fraudulent and with no comforting belief system, she often felt terrified. Everything changed when she watched Beryl the hamster's soul leave its body in a gentle golden mist. After that, paranormal experiences came thick and fast. Was she going crazy, was it all nonsense? She began to accept a new reality but was now afraid of what others would think of her. Gradually, undeniable messages came from animal and human spirits, even an encounter with angels. She had to accept that she'd been wrong her whole life and was able to let go of all her fears. Even when she collapsed with heart failure, she found herself free to face the danger with hope and courage.

Ghosts of War
Many brave men and women have given their lives in armed conflicts so that we may live in freedom today. A great debt is owed to these soldiers, sailors and flyers, both men and women, and they must never be forgotten. Glynis Amy Allen has met quite a few of their spirits, while walking the battlefields of World War I, during her nursing career and when giving personal readings as a medium. This book is a tribute to them. Inspired by her experiences, Glynis has researched others’ similar spiritual and ghostly accounts throughout history and across other cultures. These eye-opening stories - more than two hundred of them - told by ordinary people, of honesty and integrity, are a huge contribution to our understanding of human consciousness and the far-reaching power of our minds.
