Book excerpt: The book that inspired the major motion picture I Saw the Light. Originally published as Hank William: The Biography. In his brief life, Hank Williams created one of the defining bodies of American music. Songs such as "Your Cheatin' Heart," "Hey, Good Lookin'," and "Jambalaya" sold millions of records and became the model for virtually all country music that followed. But by the time of his death at age twenty-nine, Williams had drunk and drugged and philandered his way through two messy marriages and out of his headline spot on the Grand Ole Opry. Even though he was country music's top seller, toward the end he was so famously unreliable that he was lucky to get a booking in a beer hall. Colin Escott's enthralling, definitive biograph--now the basis of the major motion picture I Saw the Light--vividly details the singer's stunning rise and his spectacular decline, revealing much that was previously unknown or hidden about the life of this country music legend.

It's a tragic thing to grow up never feeling safe in your own home. This is not a story about a poverty stricken waif who escaped the mean streets of Philly, or the absurd insanity of a life of hedonistic wealth; Peg is a product of a 'normal' middle class, cookie-cutter family from the 1950's, whose life appeared average in every way-except it wasn't. Although looking happy and wholesome on the outside, insidious things were happening on the inside, which makes her tale even more of a wake-up call to all the 'normal' people out there who can't understand why they are full of rage, or guilt, or low self-esteem. Living through Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Peg has a unique, even humorous way of telling her story, while offering hope to all who are suffering. She is living proof that you can live through hell and get better instead of bitter and shows the reader not only how to survive, but how to thrive. This is a true story of the goodness of God. It is a story of faith, hope and love; and how anyone's heart can be healed. From childhood abuse, to an unwilling immersion into the kingdom of darkness, I Saw the Light... But HE Saw Me First is a beacon of hope for anyone who has suffered emotional or physical abuse, rejection, or abandonment.

Book excerpt: *NOW A NETFLIX LIMITED SERIES—from producer and director Shawn Levy (Stranger Things) starring Mark Ruffalo, Hugh Laurie, and newcomer Aria Mia Loberti* Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award finalist, the beloved instant New York Times bestseller and New York Times Book Review Top 10 Book about a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths collide in occupied France as both try to survive the devastation of World War II. Marie-Laure lives with her father in Paris near the Museum of Natural History where he works as the master of its thousands of locks. When she is six, Marie-Laure goes blind and her father builds a perfect miniature of their neighborhood so she can memorize it by touch and navigate her way home. When she is twelve, the Nazis occupy Paris, and father and daughter flee to the walled citadel of Saint-Malo, where Marie-Laure’s reclusive great uncle lives in a tall house by the sea. With them they carry what might be the museum’s most valuable and dangerous jewel. In a mining town in Germany, the orphan Werner grows up with his younger sister, enchanted by a crude radio they find. Werner becomes an expert at building and fixing these crucial new instruments, a talent that wins him a place at a brutal academy for Hitler Youth, then a special assignment to track the Resistance. More and more aware of the human cost of his intelligence, Werner travels through the heart of the war and, finally, into Saint-Malo, where his story and Marie-Laure’s converge. Doerr’s “stunning sense of physical detail and gorgeous metaphors” (San Francisco Chronicle) are dazzling. Deftly interweaving the lives of Marie-Laure and Werner, he illuminates the ways, against all odds, people try to be good to one another. Ten years in the writing, All the Light We Cannot See is a magnificent, deeply moving novel from a writer “whose sentences never fail to thrill” (Los Angeles Times).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I Saw A Light And Came Here is the result of decades of scholarly research and investigations into past-life memories, primarily of children. Erlendur Haraldsson, a psychologist, has over two decades of experience behind him, having investigated some one hundred cases in the field. He worked closely with Ian Stevenson, M.D., of the University of Virginia, who began systematic studies of "cases of the reincarnation type," but soon broke new ground with psychological studies of children who insist they remember episodes from past lives. Haraldsson invited anthropologist James Matlock to join him because of his thorough familiarity with research around the globe. This book deals with various aspects of past-life memory and attempts to answer the questions that will inevitably come up in the minds of thoughtful readers.

Book excerpt: The life of a hardened soldier and prosecutor for South Africa's Apartheid government was transformed when he accepted God's calling and became a peacemaker. Can God really protect you in these troubled times; provide for you in a weak economy and does he have a destiny and purpose for your life? The answer is an emphatic yes. The author testifies how, after he "saw the light" and experienced God's immense power, not a hair was harmed on his head (Luke 21:18), in spite of a price having been placed on it by an Apartheid police death squad. This book tells of how the life of a hardened soldier and prosecutor for South Africa's Apartheid government was transformed when he accepted God's calling on his life. After his Damascene experience, he became a peacemaker, making an important contribution to the miraculous transformation that took place in South Africa. Inspired in his youth to join an airborne unit by the lyrics of the Ballad of the Green Beret, the author narrowly missed death on several occasions. He narrates how God sustained him and guided his every step through harrowing times. This moving testimony is a "must read" for those wavering in their faith and anyone serving in the armed forces or in law enforcement, as well as their families.
