No Atheists in Foxholes
Experience gripping wartime stories and honest prayers by this Camp David chaplain now serving in Iraq. When words mean less and less, but money talks more and more; when blasphemy is a best seller, and eternal war has replaced hopeful diplomacy; in times like these is prayer even possible? Patrick J. McLaughlin thinks so. McLaughlin is an active duty Navy Chaplain who has ministered to heads of state and to soldiers living and dying in the heat of Iraq. No Atheists in Foxholes assembles Chaplain McLaughlin's experiences and prayers from e-mails, private notes, and personal conversations that take us real-time into realms of duty and spirit: from the quiet darkness of his infant son's New England bedroom on September 11, 2001, to the bomshelled medical tents and blistered Army Humvees of Anbar Province. Chaplain McLaughlin believes that prayer is not only possible, but critical. "We must all learn to pray for peace," he says, "and then become an answer to that prayer."

From Roots to Twigs - Book 1
Book 1 of Harold Blair Heeney's family genealogy research, traces his ancestry back several generations to William Heeney and Sarah Howard. This book includes information on them and their descendants from the early 1800's to 2005. For privacy reasons, the data relating to those still living has been blacked out. Sources used include family records and stories, including old bibles, nominal and agricultural records from 1851-1891 in the Census records of Archives Canada, readings on cemetery stones, various church records, and histories written by some of the older members of the family.
Betrayed by Self
BETRAYED BY SELF plunges the reader into the untamed world of psychiatry through the accounts of a psychiatric resident as he struggles amidst four years in the trenches of mental illness. A unique viewpoint told through the eyes of an unlikely doctor who often has more in common with his patients than his colleagues. These accounts provided by a man who rose from homelessness, and overwhelming odds, to fulfill an implausible journey of discovery. In abandoning his attempt to fit the mold of the traditional physician, he uncovers a significant capacity to connect with those who have been all but rejected by traditional medicine. Thrusting headfirst into stories of suffering, he reveals the possibility for empathic understanding while caring for those stricken by psychosis, all while struggling to maintain his own sanity within the added strain of psychiatric residency. This book recounts experiences as raw as they occurred in a behind-the-curtain look at doctors in training and the tragic, fascinating, and often painfully intriguing stories of the patients they encounter.
