The Immigrants
A family History. Our Grandfather made the trip to America before WWI but returned and was drafted into the German Army. After the War he worked his way back to the USA from Hamburg and sent for our Grandmother as soon as he could afford it. Neither of them returned until our Grandmother did in the 1970s. This book tells the family story from just before the war up until the present time.
INTERESTING TIMES
Interesting Times A team of archaeologists led by three Jesuits and an Israeli rabbi discover a sealed cave in the Sinai Desert. Hidden and unopened for millennia, the cave contains pre-Christian-era treasures, including a stone inscribed with the Prayer of Moses, offering a unique power to a priest who utters it with a request. The rabbi finds and conceals the stone, and later recites the prayer while requesting that modern Israel be transported in time to 1939 to deal as a nuclear power with the Nazi threat. The temporal transformation occurs, and the story recounts the impact on the government and citizens of Israel, the crew of the US Navy cruiser docked in Haifa at the fateful moment, and many others in Europe and the Middle East.

The dramatic events leading to a startling climax will be etched in the reader's memory.
