Book Description
Richard Serrano, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist for the Los Angeles Times, pens a story of two veterans. In the late 1950s, as America prepared for the Civil War centennial, two very old men lay dying. Albert Woolson, 109 years old, slipped in and out of a coma at a Duluth, Minnesota, hospital, his memories as a Yankee drummer boy slowly dimming. Walter Williams, at 117 blind and deaf and bedridden in his daughter's home in Houston, Texas, no longer could tell of his time as a Confederate forage master. The last of the Blue and the Gray were drifting away; an era was ending. Unknown to the public, centennial officials, and the White House too, one of these men was indeed a veteran of that horrible conflict and one according to the best evidence nothing but a fraud. One was a soldier. The other had been living a great, big lie.

Book Description
To everyone and everything that God creates He gives glory [ 1 Corinthians 15: 40-41 ]. This glory is for the ultimate majesty, power, and praise of the Almighty God. God also endues with glory. God created man in His image and makes abundant provisions for all to partake of His immeasurable blessings and glory. " I lead in the way of righteousness..... that I may cause those that love me to inherit substance, and I will fill their treasures." Proverbs 8: 20-21 "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill and to destroy...." John 10:10. The devil fights hard to dispose of all of these Godly blessings and glory through sleight and personal confrontations. STOLEN GLORY sets out the author's personal experiences of confrontations between light and darkness and how you can successfully overcome them through prayers and supplications.

Book Description
The stolen base is one of the most fascinating plays in all of sports. In no other sport is the opportunity present for the offense to literally take away what belongs to the defense. In other sports it is the ball (or puck) that must do the scoring; in baseball, however, it is the runner, and base stealing is the runner's greatest weapon. Not just ball games but entire World Series have turned on a steal. This book traces the history of the stolen base and stealing in the major leagues from its humble beginnings through its current status as an indispensable part of a team's offense. Also covered are the players who were synonymous with base stealing: Ty Cobb, Luis Aparicio, Maury Wills, Lou Brock, Rickey Henderson, and others. The most memorable steals in baseball history are also recalled.

"Shaffer chronicles the postwar transition of black veterans from the Union army, as well as their subsequent life patterns, political involvement, family and marital life, experiences with social welfare, comradeship with other veterans, and memories of the war itself. He draws on such sources as Civil War pension records to fashion a collective biography - a social history of both ordinary and notable lives - resurrecting the words and memories of many black veterans to provide an intimate view of their lives and struggles."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Description
I would like to point out that my purpose of writing this book is to enlighten many Hamite people who are scattered around the world through slavery and colonialism and who do not have a clue of who they are and where they come from, because this history is written in the Scripture and the Scripture Map of 1890 and many of these things were hidden from us, Hamite people and the world at large who do not have the understanding of the reading of the Scripture and do not have the Scripture map as I do, showing the land of Ham and his descendants. I am very glad and thankful to Yahweh that I am now able to write about these things in my own words so that I can bring much knowledge and understanding to the minds of the people of Ham worldwide. I hope to awake many of them about the great past and history that we as a people come from. This is the fulfillment of the prophecy that is mentioned in the Scripture. What was hidden in the dark shall surely come to light, and what was done in secret shall be made known on the house top.
