Book Description
Mary Lee's new life in a new home (not to mention a possible romance with an old friend) is thrown a curve when she has to make room for her wandering, free-spirited daughter, her wrestler-worshipping ten-year-old grandson, and the homeless teenage girl who's been tagging along with them, all the while trying to keep the peace between her pregnant niece and the controlling man she married. But these troubles are overshadowed by the suspicious death of a childhood acquaintance, and Mary is drawn into an investigation that leads her on a rocky journey into the past. Secrets and lies, buried conspiracies, bygone schemes and passions all make her question the motives of old friends and even her own family's loyalties and ties. Anonymous threats, gunshots into a house filled with friends, and another death that's unquestionably murder imperil Mary, her friends and family and she must track down the killer before another victim is claimed.

Book Description
Setting out in the spring of 1990 'to look for America', when patriotic travel was suddenly back in fashion, William Zinsser made first-time pilgrimages to some of America's most cherished and visited historic sites: Mount Rushmore, Rockefeller Center, Yellowstone National Park, Pearl Harbor, even the "corny and obvious" Niagara Falls. At these and his other iconic destinations, Zinsser unlearned clichéd assumptions and rediscovered fundamental truths about America. Originally published in 1992, AMERICAN PLACES and the ideals that Zinsser discovers these places represent will never go out of fashion.

Book Description
Would you believe that several years ago my life was completely devastated to the point of giving up all hope? That is when God's grace and mercy inspired me to turn the terrible catastrophe into an opportunity to write Life Still Goes On, an exciting, thrilling, incredible, fascinatingly extra-ordinary unbelievable story of my life. A father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, my experiences as a former public school teacher; a former pastor in the United Methodist Church; a former missionary with the Sudan Interior Mission in Liberia, West Africa; and a former substitute teacher with the Roswell Independent School District will be included in this book. I have to laugh sometimes, because my life has been like the rides at an amusement park: up and down and up and down and around and around as Life Still Goes On, by Curtis L. Hayes. ****** I purchased a coffee cup in the thrift store for 10 cents, and this is what it said, CURTIS "A likeable fellow, Many favors he's done, Patience his virtue, The courteous one." -- John Piatt I have never met Mr. Piatt, but he summarized my life up pretty good. Like an eagle that soars high and swoops down low to catch an animal. My life seems to have been much like that! Up and down, back and forth, round and round I would go! I loved the roller coaster the most! At 81 years of age, I am still enjoying the rides. God inspired and allowed me to write the remarkable autobiography "Life Still Goes On", by Curtis L. Hayes.

Book Description
A farm boy from the mountains of North Carolina, Rufus Edmisten could not have been prepared for the halls of power in Washington, D.C., during the Vietnam War era, as young men burned their draft cards and pro-cannabis factions held "smoke-ins" in the capital. A University of North Carolina Chapel Hill graduate, he earned a law degree at George Washington University and landed a job as counsel to U.S. senator Samuel J. Ervin, Jr. This led to Edmisten's appointment as Deputy Chief Counsel for the Senate Watergate Committee--he personally served Richard Nixon the first ever subpoena of a sitting president by Congress. Returning to North Carolina, he served as Attorney General and Secretary of State before retiring from public life to practice law and participate in charitable activities. Written with humor and candor, his memoir recalls the cultural contrasts of American life in the 1970s and 1980s, and affirms that the business of government is to enable us to live together peacefully.
