Excitement is running high in the Adams family. Mr Finch, after a long career in secret government work, is to be knighted - which means that Chinese Lady will become a real 'Lady'!

Her grandson Paul, meanwhile, working for the Young Socialists, is worried at what his fiery colleague Lucy will say if she learns that he has titled connections. And Sammy, trying to rebuild his clothing business after the War, is horrified at the growing fashion for denim jeans, which even the young ladies of the family seem to be wearing.

Book Description
When Professor Kurtz retired, training a dog was the last thing on her mind, but a shaggy, black scamp called Sammy entered her life one day, and her world changed. The story tells how Sammy's new owner civilized his behavior through training at a local dog club. His aptitude for rally obedience enticed her to continue. Sammy, it turned out, was a pretty good competitor, except for his barking; it was Linda who had difficulty learning the sport. They spent an agonizing year attending one trial after another, while Linda gave unclear cues, got lost in the show ring, missed stations, and almost was tossed out of the sport altogether, until she finally began to qualify and earned a fine collection of ribbons. An introverted academic, she never quite fit in with the social world of dog people. But, in the end, she and Sammy triumphed. The book covers their first three years together. Linda Farris Kurtz's career as a practicing social worker and educator spanned forty-six years from 1958 to her retirement in 2004. After retiring, she adopted Sammy, the scrappy canine subject of her memoir. She lives in Ann Arbor, Michigan with Sammy and her husband, Ernest Kurtz, who is the author of several books, including The Spirituality of Imperfection, published by Bantam in 1993. Throughout their thirty-two year marriage, both Drs. Kurtz have researched and written on recovery from alcoholism and mental illness. Linda Farris Kurtz is the author of one other book, Self-help and Support Groups: A Handbook for Practitioners, published by Sage Publications in 1997.

Book Description
Can a Leopard change his spots, or can a heartless killer give his life over to serving the Lord and winning souls for Christ? In the natural, no. But with the Lord, all things are possible. When the worst tragedy strikes and a man becomes obsessed with hate and turns into a cold blooded killer, it would seem that there is no hope for him but to be a tool for the devil. The path of life that he is drawn into leaves a certainty that he is beyond redemption. Living as though he has a death wish, chasing danger and pulling crazy stunts all while going into the depths of a criminal organization, Gary refined his natural abilities to be the best of the worst. His abilities brought him to the attention of those who would exploit his talents to satisfy their own dark intentions. The deeper he went into the dark world of the mob, it seemed there would be no way out. Gaining recognition across all boundaries as one of the best sharpshooters that ever worked for the mob, he was destined to be used by all who wanted his services, even the CIA. When it would seem there is no hope for salvation, and the man who is dedicated to having no mercy finds that though he gave no mercy, there is still the possibility of a miracle. Love and mercy can reach the darkest soul, and forgiveness can change a man forever. When there is no hope for a man, then that is when the Lord can go to work and prove that only he can take a soul from spiritual death unto a new and glorious life. This story is based on the real life of a person whose name is Gary.
