Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Their sounds never reach my ears. Muffled, hidden, yet free to breathe. Atop, soft and feathery without fears, A momma draped gently as a wreath In a delightful collection of essays and poetry, Eileen Kerr Blakeman transforms ordinary thoughts into amusing writings that encourage all of us to find the humor in life. Blakeman reflects on why there are holes in a soap dish, why it is so hard to find a runaway pill that has fallen on the floor, whether peanut butter coffee is delicious or not, why a little snow at Christmas and the arrival of spring pansies bring joy, and why good things come when we least expect them. Included in her delightful collection are light-hearted poems that address the many wonders of nature such as two pigeons who waddle and doddle, busy birds who whistle from afar, a pet rabbit who hides in the desert grass, and a hungry yellow cat. Smile through the Clouds shares a compilation of essays and poems that provide a whimsical look at the fun side of life.

Book excerpt: Kate Fitzgerald's spirit hovers above her hospital bed, looking down on her lifeless body. She finds herself far from extinguished but rather in some sort of limbo. She travels freely back and forth into the lives of those she left behind--her cold unloving husband, William; his lover, Veronica; her best friend, Veronica (yes, you guessed it); her estranged daughter, Celia; and her adorable French grandson, Matt. His first words to her are "Bonjour, Grand-mère Kate. Are you a fantôme?" Readers will discover a most marvelous and memorable ghost indeed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On July 6, 1906, Baron Gustaf Mannerheim boarded the midnight train from St. Petersburg, charged by Czar Nicholas II to secretly collect intelligence on the Qing Dynasty's sweeping reforms that were radically transforming China. The last czarist agent in the so–called Great Game, Mannerheim chronicled almost every facet of China's modernization, from education reform and foreign investment to Tibet's struggle for independence. On July 6, 2006, writer Eric Enno Tamm boards that same train, intent on following in Mannerheim's footsteps. Initially banned from China, Tamm devises a cover and retraces Mannerheim's route across the Silk Road, discovering both eerie similarities and seismic differences between the Middle Kingdoms of today and a century ago. Along the way, Tamm offers piercing insights into China's past that raise troubling questions about its future. Can the Communist Party truly open China to the outside world yet keep Western ideas such as democracy and freedom at bay, just as Qing officials mistakenly believed? What can reform during the late Qing Dynasty teach us about the spectacular transformation of China today? As Confucius once wrote, "Study the past if you would divine the future," and that is just what Tamm does in The Horse that Leaps Through Clouds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The news of the Hindenburg crash didn't just make Erich Lindemann's miserable day worse. It changed his whole life. Germany, May 1937. Shy, cerebral Erich loves Zeppelins - silver airborne giants that span oceans in a single leap and transport the rich and famous to exotic destinations. Zeppelins also distract Erich from the fact that his best friend has joined the Hitler Youth and that his teachers are pressuring him to submit to the rigid Nazi code. Erich and his ailing mother decide to leave Berlin for the safety of his aunt's farm, only a few miles from the home base of the Zeppelins. Erich's growing mechanical skills fuel the self-confidence he needs to apply to the Zeppelin Company as an apprentice mechanic. Under the guidance of Willi Ganzler, a young mechanic, and Herr Schmidt, the ship's gruff Chief Engineer, Erich helps to build - and then actually fly - the last of the great Zeppelins. On weekends, Erich enjoys riding his motorcycle and mountain climbing with pretty, independent Beate F rster. For Erich, life is good. But as the Nazis gradually insinuate themselves into the crew, Erich finds that he is powerless to prevent them from slowly unraveling the trust and respect that had knit the ship's extended family so closely together. When Willi is arrested by the Nazi secret police, Erich is forced to make a choice that could put his life in the ultimate danger. Paul Lagasse is an award-winning freelance writer and editor whose articles have appeared in local, regional, and national magazines. He and his wife live in Baltimore, Maryland. Seeing Through Clouds is his first novel.
