The Holy Blood
A smart, sexy, feisty, European religious history lecturer, Jena Van Rooykens, finds herself caught up in a roller coaster of a ride with the American academic system where the boundaries of education and commercialism are no longer recognised. The theft of the Christian relic - The Holy Blood of Bruges, allows an Okalahoma University to conduct authenticity testing and leads to the ultimate 'what if'. Cloning the DNA structure of 'The Holy Blood' is the logical next step, isn't it? God doesn't play dice, but is he playing Chess?

The Centre of the World at the Edge of a Continent
While Cape Breton's culture is typically depicted as a scenic snapshot of Scottish fiddlers and tartans, the essay in this book go beyond this tourism image. Focusing on pastimes, the arts, community, family and identity, the authors have interpreted the ways that cultural practices act to maintain a cohesive and rich social world on this singular island. The themes in this book offer Cape Bretoners a glance at themselves and provide visitors with unsung sketches of Cape Breton life.
Gracey
A sequel to Dougy, Gracey continues the story of Gracey and her two brothers, young Aboriginals in a small country town.
Descendants of Patrick O'grady and Mary Steele 1757-2005
This book is a synopsis of many years of research in an eff ort to add a human face and personality to the data culled from various sources of vital records. As the family tree unfurls, it reveals the vivid contrasts between its many branches.

Mr. Notre Dame
Edward "Moose" Krause spent nearly sixty years as a student-athlete, coach, athletic director, and de facto ambassador to the Notre Dame's legions of fans around the world. From an All-American career as a football and basketball player to a struggle with alcoholism in the wake of an accident that nearly killed his beloved wife, Mr. Notre Dame captures his remarkable story.
The Window Seat
Since Archie Weller was runner-up for the first Vogel Award in 1980 for his novel The Day of the Dog, he has become an important voice in contemporary Indigenous writing. The Window Seat is a collection of his best fiction and a tribute to his contribution to Australian literature. These stories are honest, brutal and moving. In 'The Window Seat', we witness an old woman's final journey home through the eyes of the disgruntled white traveller who sits beside her; in 'Stolen Car', a young Aboriginal man learns his first lesson in rough justice; and in 'Dead Dingo', we see another rallying against what his friends, life and fate offer him. Together these powerful stories present a rich and rewarding reading experience.
