Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After years of having a dream and having a storyline in the back of his head, Michael Furness decided to bring that dream and that story, with all those great characters from that dream, to life and into print. Michael, having a son with disabilities, would always read stories to his son and would take him to action-packed superhero movies. It was his son's favorite type of movie where the superhero would always defeat the bad guys. This association with superheroes and all the obstacles that the superheroes were up against in their daily life led Michael to decide to write a book for his son and making his son the hero with the help of the Holy Spirit, alongside his best friend, Abe. Tyler and Abe would go up against their adversaries, fighting for the good while relying upon the Lord with prayer to advise and guide them. Michael, thinking back to when his father would tell stories of how his family struggled early in their life during the Great Depression, gave Michael an era to set his story and to tell a powerful irresistible way to go up against odds while relying on God's power to make it in life. Tyler moved with his family to the Appalachian Mountains to a small country town known as Hoges Store, Virginia, where most of its townspeople worked for the mining company and lived in dismal lifestyles. Tyler, an almost twelve-year-old boy, used prayer and the belief that with God, all things are possible. This story tells how Tyler and Abe used the powers of God Almighty to take on, and possibly defeat, his foes.

Delphine Dansey carries her heart on the outside of her body; she’s looking for love and chasing dreams. She’s spoiled and selfish, the kind of beautiful that’s made for money and fame. But somehow she’s ended up in my keeping: a pretty submissive I can’t seem to resist, a lover who obsesses and tempts me. I thought I’d locked my heart away a long time ago, along with all my other weaknesses. But some doors won't stay closed, no matter how hard I fight to keep them shut. She unravels me, just like our friends are unraveling, just like Thornchapel itself is unraveling. All year long, we’ve been sowing lust and jealousy and pain, heedless of the consequences. But a harvest is inevitable, and so now we must reap our sorrows. And our sighs. *Harvest of Sighs is Book Three in the Thornchapel series.*

He prompts that you are not living to tiptoe and die but to achieve your dreams by your positive and courageous daily choices and investments. When life is not okay, but you are struggling in life, this book is for you to reexamine and change your goal, job title, and social status. 2 2
Download or read book Ginseng Dreams written by Kristin Johannsen and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2006-03-10 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Ginseng has a strange and perilous history. It has one of the longest germination periods of any known species, and only two environments in the world have offered the ideal growing conditions for wild ginseng. The first was the forests of northern China, which disappeared over a millennium ago, and the sole remaining habitat is the Appalachian Mountain region of eastern North America, an area now threatened by logging and mining. Chinese legend says that ginseng is the child of lightning. The two elemental forces of water and fire fight in an eternal struggle, pouring down rain and snow and blasting the earth with lightning. If that lightning happens to strike a spring of water, the water disappears and in its place grows a ginseng plant—the fusion of yin and yang, water and fire, darkness and light, and the life force that moves the universe. American ginseng has become perhaps the most treasured of all herbal medicines, promising good health and longevity to those who consume it. Fortunes have been made and lost on the plant, which was America’s first export to China—before our nation even existed. The strange, twisted, man-shaped root today commands as much as two thousand dollars a pound in the hot, noisy ginseng markets of Hong Kong, and a wealthy collector might pay as much as $10,000 for a single, perfect specimen. Ginseng Dreams: The Secret World of America’s Most Valuable Plant unfolds ginseng’s past and its future through the stories of seven people whose lives have become inextricably bound to it: a huckster, a field researcher, a farmer, a ginseng “missionary,” a criminal investigator, a broker, and a cancer researcher. Each of these individuals brings a different perspective to the elusive root—and each is consumed by a different dream. Kristin Johannsen threads her way though remote woodlands in the Appalachians to observe the fragile plants slowly putting out leaves as part of a three-year growing cycle, during which time the ginseng is vulnerable to both poachers and growing suburban sprawl. She contrasts this with the huge commercial growing fields of Marathon County, Wisconsin, where among potato fields and paper mills, ninety percent of the country’s ginseng is produced. Johannsen explores the brisk black market trade in the panacean root and the efforts to save the wild species and its native habitat, and she ends her story in the laboratory, where researchers are investigating ginseng’s anti-cancer properties. An absorbing journey into the many worlds of this mysterious and potent plant, Ginseng Dreams tells the extraordinary story of America’s little-known natural treasure and the spell it casts on those who seek it.
