Book excerpt: Brian Keenan's fascination with Alaska began as a small boy choosing his first library book in a Belfast school. The book was Jack London's wondrous Call of the Wild. And it has permeated Keenan's life ever since. A short visit to Fairbanks several years ago was enough to seal his connection with the place and he resolved to return. Last year he did so with a head full of questions about its inspiring landscape and heart informed with his own love of the desolate and barren places of the world. In the course of a journey that takes him through four geographical quarters from snowmelt in May to snowfall in September, he discovers a land as fantastical as a fairytale but whose vastness has a very peculiar type of allure . . .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life has a purpose. To discover this purpose, we must divide our life into 4 Quarters. The First Quarter is all about Learning while the Second Quarter focuses on Earning. The Third Quarter is meant for us to start our journey towards the ultimate goal of life, Enlightenment, and in our final Quarter, we must attain this final goal of Enlightenment. Enlightenment liberates us from all suffering and from the Karmic cycle of death and rebirth. Unfortunately, today, man only focuses on the first two Quarters of life. As a result, he suffers. This book will inspire you to live a complete life, Quarter by Quarter, so that you can live with bliss and everlasting happiness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bards of Shkoder hold the country together. They, and the elemental spirits they Sing – earth, air, fire, and water - bring the news of the sea to the mountains, news of the mountains to the plains. They give their people, from peasant to king, a song in common. Annice is a rare talent, able to Sing all four quarters, but her brother, the newly enthroned King Theron, sees her request to study at the Bardic Hall as a betrayal. To his surprise, Annice accepts his conditions, renouncing her royal blood and swearing to remain childless so as not to jeopardize the line of succession. She walks away from political responsibilities, royal privilege and her family. Ten years later, Annice has become the Princess Bard and her real life is about to become the exact opposite of the overwrought ballad her fellow students at the Bardic Hall wrote about her. Now, she's on the run from the Royal Guards with the Duc of Ohrid, the father of her unborn child, both of them guilty of treason – one of them unjustly accused. To save the Duc's life, they'll have to cross the country, manage to keep from strangling each other, and defeat an enemy too damaged for even a Bard's song to reach.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four Quarters: A Cultural and Developmental Approach to Transforming Your Spiritual Autobiography By: Taunya Marie Tinsley, D.Min., Ph.D. "This book will remind you why God built you to be in the game, while giving you fundamental principles that are necessary for you to stay motivated to win.” Bishop Sir Walter Mack Jr. Union Baptist Church, Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Four Quarters implements sports metaphors, specifically basketball, that will assist readers with developing their spiritual story/spiritual autobiography. Scriptures and psychological concepts are included to help you make sense and understand your spiritual story. Author Taunya Marie Tinsley's experience of developing her own spiritual autobiography assisted her with understanding who she is; making sense of her journey; and finishing unfinished business from her past while improving her understanding of God and her faith in the process. She hopes readers can model her vulnerability and experiences to assist them with their own personal process. "Four Quarters is a quick read, but Dr. Taunya slows you down enough to HONESTLY reflect, review, renew and realize God's purpose for your life, without sitting in front of her.” Karmyn Jefferson, Mark Anthony Hair Salon, Pittsburgh, PA "Dr. Taunya Tinsley... strategically utilizes her expertise in the field of psychology, counseling, and ministry; along with her knowledge and experience as an athlete, that makes this book a powerful tool to help one look deeply into their own life experience to discover and interpret aspects of their personal story that can be life-changing.” Rev. Dr. Joan B .Prentice, Founder, Executive Director and Pastor of The Ephesus Project, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. “This book is a must read for every scholar and student seeking to understand how they arrived where they are today. It's a necessary read for those desiring to understand how they've been shaped and molded, whether that be good or bad." Dr. Robert Jackson III, Pastor, St. Paul AME Church ,Miami ,FL

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Original and illuminating ... what a good book this is' Jonathan Dimbleby 'A love letter to the people of the Old City' Jerusalem Post In Jerusalem, what you see and what is true are two different things. Maps divide the walled Old City into four quarters, yet that division doesn't reflect the reality of mixed and diverse neighbourhoods. Beyond the crush and frenzy of its major religious sites, much of the Old City remains little known to visitors, its people overlooked and their stories untold. Nine Quarters of Jerusalem lets the communities of the Old City speak for themselves. Ranging through ancient past and political present, it evokes the city's depth and cultural diversity. Matthew Teller's highly original 'biography' features the Old City's Palestinian and Jewish communities, but also spotlights its Indian and African populations, its Greek and Armenian and Syriac cultures, its downtrodden Dom Gypsy families and its Sufi mystics. It discusses the sources of Jerusalem's holiness and the ideas - often startlingly secular - that have shaped lives within its walls. Nine Quarters of Jerusalem is an evocation of place through story, led by the voices of Jerusalemites.

Book excerpt: The NFL icon who first brought show business to sports shares his life lessons on fame, fatherhood, and football. Three days before the 1969 Super Bowl, Joe Namath promised the nation that he would lead the New York Jets to an 18-point underdog victory against the seemingly invincible Baltimore Colts. When the final whistle blew, that promise had been kept. Namath was instantly heralded as a gridiron god, while his rugged good looks, progressive views on race, and boyish charm quickly transformed him - in an era of raucous rebellion, shifting social norms, and political upheaval - into both a bona fide celebrity and a symbol of the commercialization of pro sports. By 26, with a championship title under his belt, he was quite simply the most famous athlete alive. Although his legacy has long been cemented in the history books, beneath the eccentric yet charismatic personality was a player plagued by injury and addiction, both sex and substance. When failing knees permanently derailed his career, he turned to Hollywood and endorsements, not to mention a tumultuous marriage and fleeting bouts of sobriety, to try and find purpose. Now 74, Namath is ready to open up, brilliantly using the four quarters of Super Bowl III as the narrative backbone to a life that was anything but charmed. As much about football and fame as about addiction, fatherhood, and coming to terms with our own mortality, All the Way finally reveals the man behind the icon.
