Esther, Job and Gideon
This book contains three Bible stories written for young readers. ESTHER When a timid, sensitive foreign girl suddenly becomes the queen of the most powerful king in the world, how would she feel? This is the story of Esther, a Jewish exile in the Kingdom of Persia in the Sixth Century B.C. The story has captured the imagination of readers who are attracted to this pretty but humble girl who lived twenty-five centuries ago. The story begins when King Xerxes, ruler of the vast Persian Empire, boasts that his wife, Queen Vashti, is the most beautiful woman in the world. He is taunted to prove it by making her dance nude at one of his drunken parties. She refuses, and he exiles her. Now he must...
Soporific Sermons
Ho, Hum! Another book of sermons by a retired preacher, who thinks his sermons are better than anybody elses. Well, they are. A writer of novels wrote these sermons. The author thus makes them easy to read (or listen to), filled with humor, and down to earth. They are definitely not pietistic drivel! One of them even won a national contest and was published in Best Sermons of 1988. The dedication page says that these sermons are for two kinds of people: 1. Preachers who have to prepare one or more sermons a week. Feel free to use any or all of the material in this book. 2. People who have trouble falling asleep at night. These sermons are soporific. Take one and call me in the morning.
The Magdalene
This is the story of Mary of Magdala, and her unique relationship with Jesus. She learns Jesus secret: he believes he must die to fulfill his calling as the Messiah. Can she accept this, and give him her strength? This is Marys story, but it is also the story of the man of Galilee, who loved people, healed them, died for them, and changed the face of the world.

Tapestry, a Living History of the Black Family in Southeastern Connecticut
"The first half of Tapestry consists of a historical overview of African Americans in southeastern Connecticut from 1680 to 1865. The authors focus on the arrival of blacks in Connecticut, the African-American family, and the role played by African Americans in the Revolutionary and Civil wars. Much of the action takes place in the towns of Groton, East Haddam, New London, Chatham, and Hebron. In the second part of the volume, Dr. Rose and Mrs. Brown produce, as illustrations, genealogical sketches of the following African-American families: Beman, Boham, Bush, Freeman, Hallan, Hyde, Jacklin, Jackson, Lathrop, Magira, Mason, Moody, Peters, Quash, Rogers, and Wright. While readers will discover information in a number of these genealogies that is repeated in Brown and Rose's Black Roots in Southeastern Connecticut, 1650-1900, researchers should check the accounts in Tapestry for embellishments"--Publisher website (December 2008).
