Book Description
Heart of Darkness is a short and vividly brutal account of colonial enterprise that has as much in common with the jaded Evelyn Waugh of Black Mischief as it does with any of Conrad's direct contemporaries in the late nineteenth century. It is accompanied in this volume by the tales with which it has been published since 1902, the autobiographical short story "Youth," and the less personal but more substantial tale of an old man's fall from fortune, "The End of the Tether." Though these stories differ considerably in style and content from his later novels, much of his reputation rests upon the words contained in this volume.

Book Description
When the old fisherman saw an eerie blue light begin to flash in a downstairs window of the deserted beach house, he started to run. Footsteps began to follow him-he heard them crunching in the sand... Ghosts and smugglers at the shore, a brother and sister alone on a terrifying trip to freedom on the underground railroad, a courageous boy in a devastating fire, a horse that spends the night in a guest room-these are but a few of the characters brought to life in this charming collection of exciting short stories about New Jersey. These tales could all be true. They are based on either fact or legend, and they are located all over the state-from its southernmost tip at Cape May, to Johnsonburg and Morristown in the north, and many points in-between. You've probably been to some of these places yourself. Maybe one of these stories happened right where you live...

Book Description
A gripping tale of escape from Egypt, The Stranger at Our Shore is the true story of one young man’s journey out of Islam into new life in Christ. Through his remarkable testimony, Chicago pastor Joshua Sherif calls the Western Church to reconsider the plight of the modern day sojourners in our land—the strangers at our shore and the ones living right next door—and to return wholeheartedly to its first charge: making disciples. The book examines three ways believers harden their hearts towards the stranger and suggests three practical remedies to help us begin casting a wider net for discipleship in our communities. Though any reader will be captivated by the powerful story, any believer will walk away from this book feeling less intimidated and better equipped to disciple people who are different than them.
