Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maude Travers checked to make sure no one was looking before she laid hands on the great white oak, the oldest tree in the city of Buffalo, New York. It's a witness tree, after all, having stood young and strong when the Seneca people hunted this land in the eighteenth century. One hundred years later, it was incorporated into Frederick Law Olmsted's vision for the most innovative system of parks and parkways in the United States. Maude was keen to know what the tree might manifest to her. Visions appeared in rapid succession, revealing people and events through three centuries of stewardship. The first left her with a palpable sense of fear; the second profound joy; and the final, a grief so overwhelming the pain lingered with her, long after the vision had faded.Who were these people, and how were their stories intertwined? Using her powerful gifts as a psychic medium, Maude sets out to unravel the mystery, only to be sidetracked by some devastating news. Soulmates past and present are threatened as Maude slowly grasps that her gifts alone are insufficient to reach into the past and correct the course of history. Widening her circle of gifted seers to send healing across time, she prays their collective efforts will be enough.

Download or read book Arnold and Me written by Barbara Outland Baker and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2006 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arnold Schwarzenegger's first love relives their six-year journey during his explosive first years in America. While she watches Arnold surpass his dreams, Barbara learns to transform hers -- from desiring what cannot be to cherishing what is so. As a woman who spends her adult life trying to get out from under Arnold's shadow, Barbara Baker learns about the shifting direction of life's journey. She hopes for normalcy during and after living with her stratospherically successful Austrian Oak bodybuilder. Barbara finds life anything but normal, however. Within Arnold and Me, she strips down this conjoined twosome as they launch their adult lives into polar opposite journeys. After their breakup, Arnold transcends the role of Hercules to become the Governator. He marries once and produces four children; to the contrary, the English Professor says "I do" four times, yet bears no offspring. Along with vintage photos and firsthand dialogue, the book's resolution forces their singular lives to merge at a satisfying junction. Despite their divergent paths, both Arnold and Barbara demonstrate that achieving one's dream demands a relentlessly flexible spirit. Barbara has skillfully rounded Arnold's corners by offering heartfelt nuances about this man who marked her for life. The author's enlightened voice also resonates with those who face relationship challenges over personal identity and fulfillment. She not only lifts herself into higher consciousness, but also the willing reader. Her journey has allowed her to find life's richness through accepting not only Arnold's daunting shadow, but also her own. This woman sings with energy, incrementally illuminating the rich lives of two ex-lovers within a beautifully developed, fast-paced story. Her readers continue to travel in their minds, breathing in the life of Arnold and Barbara long after the last word has been read.
Download or read book Snakedoctor written by Maurice Manning and published by Copper Canyon Press. This book was released on 2023-11-14 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From church barn to apple orchard, from snow-covered pasture to secret moonshine cabin, Manning’s Snakedoctor reinvigorates the Kentucky pastoral through poems that find light in shadow, good in evil, love in a father’s stinging blow. Maurice Manning returns to the Kentucky countryside in his eighth collection, Snakedoctor. Existing between haunting memory and pastoral dreamscape, this quiet collection showcases Manning’s storytelling at its finest. Simple, four-beat lines hold epiphanies—“the barn is just an empty church”— and announce visits from seven-foot strangers named Mr. True. Here, God is reimagined as a “serious banjo player” who calls the world to sing. And sing Manning does. Through rhyme, blues, and haiku, Snakedoctor trains our ears to hear music in the mundane, to find beauty all around us: in the annotated margins of a well-read book, the flight of a father’s shadow puppet, the yellow centers of daisies. Punctuated by rain’s pitter-patter on a tin wash tub, and the “ring of lonely” in a farmer’s voice as he calls his cattle home, Snakedoctor is a collection that will leave you wanting to dog-ear its pages. From childhood to fatherhood, church barn to apple orchard, moonshine to moonbeam, we leave these poems understanding Manning’s wish: “I wanted to make a prayer and I did, / in half-sleep after the dream.”
