Book Description
Hidden Angels - An Anthology of Angels is the latest reference book on Angels. It puts into perspective what Angels really are and dispels the erroneous information and myths about Angels that have been handed handed down to us through the conjurers, especially the fact that they are divided into the two camps of good and evil ever at war with eachother. It depicts Satan as being restricted to doing only that which is the will of the Almighty and therefore, contrary to the beliefs of many, he does not have power or a will of his own. The book describes in detail the ten Classes of Angels. The names of the Archangels who govern them, and the tasks that have been allotted to each of them. It briefly deals with the Kabala and its description of Angels and discloses how we are able to arrive at the names of some angels whose names have been, until now, hidden form us. The Meditations given are both inspiring, most interesting and leave us with a strong feeling of Peace.

Book Description
I talked my sister into letting me help her write this book because I knew it would take a lot of work to get it the way she wanted it. There are quotes here from people whose dogs were acting out and driving them loony. These desperate owners called Eileen because she is well known in these parts or because their veterinarian or a friend recommended her. She jumps in her blue jeep and drives to their house. She evaluates the dog and the owner. It’s usually the owner’s fault I’ve discovered. She tells them, “This is a very cool dog. He’s awesome. We can get him straightened around in no time.” The relief they feel is huge. I’ve seen Eileen turn out of control dogs into angels in seconds. After some basic obedience training the dogs and the owners often attend an “agility” or “therapy dog” class taught by Eileen. The dogs are excited and happy to be there with the other dogs. It’s like camp or a festival. The owners fall in love with their dogs again. The dogs, of course, always love their owners, no matter what. Amazing creatures. Everyone should read this book. You should especially read it before you get a dog so you know exactly what’s involved. I’m not only talking to the adults I’m talking to the kids too. Mickey McGovern has worked in the Hollywood film industry for fifteen years as a writer and a visual effects producer. But more importantly she’s Eileen Tonick’s sister.
