Book Description
Albert's dream led him toward independence. Escaping slavery, and to pursue a life where no man controlled him, was his goal. Frivolities of friendships could vanish with the whip of a switch, but freedom could be held a lifetime. Rayna's choice was to set an example and board a ship so her people could survive. Only after arrival in America, at Bristol Plantation, did she realize what consequences her sacrifice held. Her surrender meant life as a slave and separation from her island family. Can Albert's heart transcend language and barriers of repression and allow Rayna close? Will Rayna put aside hurt caused by the plantation owner and permit Albert's love to heal her heart? Can the pair abandon mistrust and let the kindness of strangers be their salvation?

Book Description
This book is an attempt to fill in the education of young Albert Gore, which seems to have been overlooked by the Massachusetts Institute of Agriculture. It deemed him ready for the civilization of today, but with many holes left in the pursuits in which he ought to have engaged himself. He accepted what they offered, in total, to his detriment, but that may be a successful mode in the Institute. One suspects that is the case. One also suspects that if Albert's daddy had allowed him to pursue his education through the University of Tennessee-Knoxville, he might not have needed these letters. We will help him wherever we can.

Book Description
This new biography provides a rich and varied insight into the life, work, and thought of Albert Schweitzer, an individual of mythical stature who was active as a theologian, musician, philosopher, physician, and missionary. Schweitzer's life was not, however, a straight path from his provincial birthplace in Alsace to his university studies in Strasbourg, then leading directly to his missionary work at a jungle hospital in Lambarene and ending with the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo. In every life there are detours and setbacks-and Schweitzer's life was no exception. The actual course of Schweitzer's life, however, is barely discernible in his autobiography, Out of my Life and Thought. This idealized life story has been told and retold by biographers and journalists with relatively little critical scrutiny. Drawing on published and unpublished material including newly released personal papers shedding light on Schweitzer's dealings with the East German authorities and his role in the anti-nuclear movement as well as a number of interviews-most notably with his daughter Rhena-Oermann succeeds in creating not only a more realistic, but also a more humane portrait of Albert Schweitzer.
