Along The Road To Heaven
Author: Jeffrey LangerPublisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595406955
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 326
Book Description
Shortly after finishing my last book Aliens and Cowboys I found myself with time on my hands so I began writing songs. The driving motivation for this book began when I moved to Auburndale Florida. Polk County is a rural community (home to orange groves and sparkling fresh water lakes) this is the first time I spent any amount of time with country folks. I started listening predominately to country music and evangelists on the radio. A short time later I realized these outside influences were changing the nature of my words and themes. For nine months I lived in Polk County the rest of the time I lived with my father and brother after separating with my long time girl friend. I finished this book at King's Point in Delray Beach Florida. The selections picked for this book reflect real life after all they come from real people and true-life events. The songs/poetry in this book were inspired by people I know, people I've spoke with (in person and in chat rooms on the web). The songs are about the Cast Of Characters that have been in and out of my life for the past year. I am not sure how some of the people I wrote about will react about the stories I tell, after all they are my interpretation of their words, their tears, their hopes and yes their fears, but also their optimism, faith in god and love of life. It celebrates the human spirit that begins our everyday and never goes away. Be well, keep your head up, and see you along the road to heaven. Jeffrey Langer
The River Has Never Divided Us
Author: Jefferson MorgenthalerPublisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 0292778686
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 402
Book Description
Winner, William P. Clements Prize, Best Non-Fiction Book on Southwestern America, 2004 Not quite the United States and not quite Mexico, La Junta de los Rios straddles the border between Texas and Chihuahua, occupying the basin formed by the conjunction of the Rio Grande and the Rio Conchos. It is one of the oldest continuously inhabited settlements in the Chihuahuan Desert, ranking in age and dignity with the Anasazi pueblos of New Mexico. In the first comprehensive history of the region, Jefferson Morgenthaler traces the history of La Junta de los Rios from the formation of the Mexico-Texas border in the mid-19th century to the 1997 ambush shooting of teenage goatherd Esquiel Hernandez by U.S. Marines performing drug interdiction in El Polvo, Texas. "Though it is scores of miles from a major highway, I found natives, soldiers, rebels, bandidos, heroes, scoundrels, drug lords, scalp hunters, medal winners, and mystics," writes Morgenthaler. "I found love, tragedy, struggle, and stories that have never been told." In telling the turbulent history of this remote valley oasis, he examines the consequences of a national border running through a community older than the invisible line that divides it.

Der Kleine Lump
Author: John F. PaugstatPublisher: Page Publishing Inc
ISBN: 1662425457
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
Der Kliene Lump contains a series of true anecdotes about the winsome ways of a boy who experienced rare freedoms and "extravagances" in a harsh era defined by The Great Depression and World War II. The boy's family of seven was unique in heritage, faith, lifestyle, character, and appearance. Less than an acre of land, a primitive house, an outhouse, and five dinky buildings, which sheltered a menagerie of animals, defined their habitat. His mother wore a prayer covering and plain dress that belied her fiery temperament. She referred to her son as Der Kleine Lump (The Little Rascal; at times, The Scoundrel). When the author, John Paugstat, viewed the anecdotes as a composite picture, he saw a boy who, when nurtured by faith, family, and society, rose above the Woes of Poverty and enjoyed the Wows of Privilege and Adventure. The author would like to have been that boy, and so he was--resulting in anecdotes true to the limits of his memory. John Paugstat has degrees from the Universities of California and Cincinnati. He wrote articles on various subjects; he taught and spoke at conventions, corporate, and church-related functions. He has five patents, two published books, and three in development.
