Book Description
A prophetic call to repentance, The Lunch Bucket is about a deeply troubled and socially alienated family who struggle to make ends meet with little success until a respected member of the community intervenes to offer support. The result of an encounter with malicious intent, the heroine of the story, Rebekah births twin sons. Jacob, who resembles Rebekah’s adored father becomes her golden child, while Esau, the other one, is anything but. In explicit detail, graphically compelling and metaphorically alive, The Lunch Bucket is a disturbing and somber account of how predators exploit the most vulnerable in society without repercussion, and how God takes the most revolting in society under his care. Whether you believe in God, divine destiny and evil in man, demons or the devil, you will be caught up in the spiritual maelstrom in the lives of each of these tortured personalities, and witness a transformation of character through a convoluted path to life, that can only happen through the crucible of God, reforming his children into his will.

Book Description
Not the rhymes of a Rhodes scholar but a lumpen proletariat thats done 30 years hard time in the worlds biggest single logging division. Contract faller death statistics in British Columbia woods exceeded those of US troops in Viet Nam. Few tree fellers survive to retire at 65. Poetry style emulates Robbie Burns & Robert Service & if it knocked Moslems as much as it mocks Christian fundamentalism, a fatwah would be declared against the author. Salman Rushdies book Satanic Verses put a million dollar price on his head but sold a few more books then. Sacred cows are not spared in this book & a few centuries earlier it would have been classed heresy, warranting a stake burning. Writers aim at controversy to sell but since popes no longer wield absolute power, they send authors to Coventry obscurity.

Book Description
Lunch-Bucket Lives takes the reader on a bumpy ride through the history of Hamilton’s working people from the 1890s to the 1930s. It ambles along city streets, peers through kitchen doors and factory windows, marches up the steps of churches and fraternal halls, slips into saloons and dance halls, pauses to hear political speeches, and, above all, listens for the stories of men, women, youths, and children from families where people relied mainly on wages to survive. Heron takes wage-earning as a central element in working-class life, but also looks beyond the workplace into the households and neighbourhoods—settlement patterns and housing, marriage, child care, domestic labour, public health, schooling, charity and social work, popular culture, gender identities, ethnicity and ethnic conflict, and politics in various forms—presenting a comprehensive view of working-class life in the first half of the twentieth century. This book has been published with the help of a grant from the Federation for the Humanities and Social Sciences, through the Awards to Scholarly Publications Program, using funds provided by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada.

Book Description
Twelve months ago, David Stoltzfus left the Amish community in Paradise, Pennsylvania—and encouraged his siblings to follow—after their father became overly stern and even abusive with them. Escaping to a new life in the Englisch world was the only way to keep one another safe. But it was not without sacrifice. When David left his father’s house and community, he also left behind Lavina Zook, the woman he planned to wed. Lavina hasn’t forgiven David for abandoning her, but when David’s father is diagnosed with cancer, she believes she might be the only one to lure him back to make peace . . . before it’s too late. Still, forgiveness isn’t easy. Even if she can get David to return, she’s not sure he will forgive his father. And she’s not sure she can forgive David, either.
