Book Description
Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window comes to mind when looking at Gail Albert Halaban's book of photographers of city dwellers peering into their neighbours' windows, Out My Window. The photographs are views across streets, alleyways and airshafts, peering through windows to reveal intimate portraits. These beautiful voyeuristic pictures capture both the intimacy and remoteness of living in proximity to so many strangers. Out My Window can be seen as an exploration of the contradictory impulses of metropolitan life: the desire to connect and the desire to be left alone.

Book Description
"The purpose of this book is to teach young children primarily aged 5-12, their carers, teachers and therapists about the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) on their feelings, body, behaviour and thoughts about themselves. Educating parents, teachers, caregivers, and those who work with children, youth and traumatised adults about the stress model allows for therapeutic, compassionate and helpful conversations that remove blame and shame. There is less judgement, more cooperation, and greater safety for a child who is outside their window"--Publisher's website.

Book Description
This is the story of an empty nester widow who decides to isolate not alone but with God at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. She has always thought a monastic life would be wonderful. She could shelter away from life, social responsibilities, and interruptions simply to study God's Word and to talk with Him. She is going on sabbatical. She has two Bible studies already started when the shutdown began and several studies she wants to pursue. She also journals and enjoys writing what she hears God telling her. She is in for a big surprise when God begins His lessons for her. There are wonderful things presented for her to learn, new revelations and thought-provoking information that had never occurred to her. There are also emotions, frustrations, and Satan's presence to throw her off. These are all met by God, showing her the way out. Even when she stumbles and weakens to despair or anger about the scene out her window, God takes the guilt from her and loves her. He is a merciful God. She learns of His holiness, grace, and mercy but also sees His working hand of judgment out the window as she watches the direction of the human race. She learns that mercy and judgment are in equal quantities as they exist together at the same time. True repentance is what changes judgment to mercy. Her lessons come daily, and she becomes a true disciple of Christ, taking in every word He speaks and asking questions in return. All that was needed was time alone, no distractions, and her full attention on God. The world grows dark out her window. And at first, it frightens her, but God shows her truths and reminds her of His plan. He prepares her to be a part of His plan and to eventually return to the world walking in that plan. The time is not yet, but it is coming, and she waits for it. 87

Book Description
A remarkable account of the collapse of the Old South and the final years of a young boy’s privileged but afflicted life. LeRoy Wiley Gresham was born in 1847 to an affluent slave-holding family in Macon, Georgia. After a horrific leg injury left him an invalid, the educated, inquisitive, perceptive, and exceptionally witty twelve-year-old began keeping a diary in 1860—just as secession and the Civil War began tearing the country and his world apart. He continued to write even as his health deteriorated until both the war and his life ended in 1865. His unique manuscript of the demise of the Old South is published here for the first time in The War Outside My Window. LeRoy read books, devoured newspapers and magazines, listened to gossip, and discussed and debated important social and military issues with his parents and others. He wrote daily for five years, putting pen to paper with a vim and tongue-in-cheek vigor that impresses even now, more than 150 years later. His practical, philosophical, and occasionally Twain-like hilarious observations cover politics and the secession movement, the long and increasingly destructive Civil War, family pets, a wide variety of hobbies and interests, and what life was like at the center of a socially prominent wealthy family in the important Confederate manufacturing center of Macon. The young scribe often voiced concern about the family’s pair of plantations outside town, and recorded his interactions and relationships with servants as he pondered the fate of human bondage and his family’s declining fortunes. Unbeknownst to LeRoy, he was chronicling his own slow and painful descent toward death in tandem with the demise of the Southern Confederacy. He recorded—often in horrific detail—an increasingly painful and debilitating disease that robbed him of his childhood. The teenager’s declining health is a consistent thread coursing through his fascinating journals. “I feel more discouraged [and] less hopeful about getting well than I ever did before,” he wrote on March 17, 1863. “I am weaker and more helpless than I ever was.” Morphine and a score of other “remedies” did little to ease his suffering. Abscesses developed; nagging coughs and pain consumed him. Alternating between bouts of euphoria and despondency, he often wrote, “Saw off my leg.” The War Outside My Window, edited and annotated by Janet Croon with helpful footnotes and a detailed family biographical chart, captures the spirit and the character of a young privileged white teenager witnessing the demise of his world even as his own body slowly failed him. Just as Anne Frank has come down to us as the adolescent voice of World War II, LeRoy Gresham will now be remembered as the young voice of the Civil War South.
