Experience the Golden Age of Boxing
This book contains my personal written and photographic account of the last golden era of professional boxing, which began when six Americans who won medals at the 1976 Olympics in Montreal turned pro and ended in 1983 when Marvin Hagler knocked out Thomas Hearns in three thrilling rounds. The real boxing enthusiast will vividly recall that bright shining period in the history of our favorite sport and remember nothing at all about me. That is exactly as it should be because this book is about the fighters and not the writer, who started to memorialize their exploits with a manual typewriter, nondigital camera, and miniature tape recorder over a quarter of a century ago.
Death By Haunting 7
Terrence Bailey awakes one night to find his mother-in-law standing in a corner of his bedroom. The only problem is that his mother-in-law has been dead for seven years. Several weeks later Terrence dies of a heart attack . . . or does he? Josiah's nose starts twitching in a bad way when Terrence goes to the "Great Beyond" and she thinks his death has something to do with Jean Louis, an internationally-known portrait artist who has come to the Bluegrass to paint Lady Elsmere's portrait. She just doesn't like Jean Louis and does some digging on him. What she finds will involve Detective Goetz and almost get her daughter, Asa, shot. Again, Josiah blames the black earth of Kentucky for spitting...
Run and Not Be Weary
Sometimes life requires us to make a leap of faith. Lee Murphy is a good runner - he finishes near the front in his local running club's races - but he thinks he should be better. He has tried everything he can think of to improve, but nothing works until a chance conversation with acquaintance and fellow runner Emily Dawson leads him to clinical psychologist Lucinda Gehringer, Emily's boss. Lucinda's instruction, Emily's friendship and Lee's developing faith combine to produce an inspirational yearlong odyssey. Others, particularly his pastor, befriend and support Lee along the way, but not everyone has his best interests at heart. Circumstances test Lee's growing faith. His own mother is an impediment and the self-serving Lucinda is a mixed blessing. Lee wants to succeed while being a man of God who cares for others. But it isn't easy in a dog-eat-dog world where some people are driven by ambition and self-interest.
Death By Betrayal
Betrayal – The act of thwarting a person’s trust, revealing information in violation of confidence, or failing to honor a promise. Josiah knows all about betrayal. In the glamorous Bluegrass world of oak-cured bourbon, antebellum mansions, and Thoroughbred horse farms, betrayals never die—never remain hidden. The dark and bloody land called Kentucky eventually gives up its secrets from its dark, loamy soil, laying them bare for all to see.

Matthew Saad Muhammad
Abandoned on the streets of Philadelphia at age four, Matthew Saad Muhammad (1954-2014) survived orphanages, street gangs and prison to become one of the most exciting prizefighters of boxing's Golden Age of the late 1970s and early 1980s. Time and again he battled back from the brink of defeat to win against the best fighters of the era. His victory over Marvin Johnson for the WBC Light Heavyweight Championship was described by one veteran boxing writer as the only fight he covered where it seemed both fighters might die. He fought not just for wealth and fame but to discover his identity--he had no idea who he was, where came from or what happened to his parents. This book reveals the full story of "Miracle Matthew" and how he became one of Philadelphia's great ring legends.
