Wooden Boats of the St. Lawrence River
"The Thousand Islands' very name conjures up images of great natural beauty and nautical wonders. They are forested islands replete with storybook stone castles. Exquisite mahogany runabouts can be seen speeding across the placid surface of the mighty St. Lawrence. Names like Boldt, Bourne, Emery, Lyon, and Pullman are embedded in the Golden Age of the area, and it all comes to life in this pictorial history of the river. Images of America: Wooden Boats of the St. Lawrence River tells the story of the rich and powerful men who constructed castles and built classic wooden boats in the Thousand Islands. At the center of the story loom David and Charlie Lyon. A descendant of the Lyon family, David Kunz, tells this story through historical photographs. David is the great-great-nephew of Charles Potter Lyon and Helen Griffin Lyon. Bill Simpson, whose first visit to the Thousand Islands was in the fall of 1976, is a novelist and publisher of Simpson Books. The majority of the photographs in this book are from the Lyon Archives on Oak Island"--
Perdition Granted
The virus is 100% fatal - undetectable, fast, revolutionary. Just like the submarine planning to distribute it in the Great Lakes watershed. Now only a retired spy, Justus Tripp, his fiancé, Professor Julie Rane, and the mothballed subchaser Bras D'Or II stand to save 35 million people. All profits from the sale of the book go to Indspire, an Indigenous-led registered charity that invests in the education of Indigenous people.
A Bird Lover's Reflections

They will also grow in their walk with God through a subject that is dear to their heart, and his, too. So, grab your book and be prepared for an inspirational and interactive time enjoying nature. A Bird Lover's Reflections is the third in a series of devotionals written for those who love nature and the outdoors.

Family: comfort food or a recipe for disaster? Award-winning storyteller and performer Regi Carpenter brings her humor and honesty to print in Where There's Smoke, There's Dinner.

From teenagers struggling to find their identity to disabled veterans grappling with the aftermath of war and change to the complications and sweetness of love between family members, this collection of linked short stories holds the universal message that life's difficulties are softened by love and fortitude . . . and family.
