"It has taken three years since my husband was killed in active service for me to get back to normal—or as normal as one can expect to be when the entire pattern of one’s life has been changed, and new threads have to be woven into a different design." These are the brave, wise words of Phyllis Grant Archer, a war widow, Canadian immigrant, and feminist before her time. Born in London in 1911, Phyllis led an exciting life, overcoming the challenges of a tumultuous childhood, discrimination as a working woman in the 1930s, the birth of her son during the Blitz, and the death of her husband in the war, just after the birth of her daughter. Seeking to start anew, Phyllis took her children to Toronto in 1944. Once there, however, she often faced hostility as a single, working mother and immigrant. She struggled to find safe and affordable housing and childcare and to balance her roles as breadwinner and caregiver. But this is not a misery memoir. Ultimately, the memoirist and her small family survive and thrive through a combination of “just getting on with it,” as well as wit, humour, and the solace of literature. The memoirist’s daughter, Elayne Archer, has edited and annotated Crossing Troubled Waters. Elayne’s “afterthoughts” at the end of each chapter put the memoir into perspective, observing not only Phyllis’ personal growth but also the shifting political and social landscape in terms of women’s roles and parenting standards. The result is an unforgettable story about resilience and forging ahead in the face of hardship.

Crossing a Bridge over Troubled Waters: Is a collection of contemporary poems for poetry lovers and enthusiasts that deals with spirituality, relationships, intellectual prowess, and enlightenment. It shares my beliefs that poetry is the purest form of communication, and it examines the influence of spirituality in our lives. In these tumultuous times of pervasiveness and evilness that encompass mankind, I truly believe that spirituality is the saving grace for mankind's existence. Furthermore, it is my intent to awaken social consciousness through my poetry, which encourages self-introspection and initiates dialogue for racial equality, love, and peace that epitomize our commonalities for the betterment of humanity.

You cannot predict what you will face or go through, but God will be able to help you in any situation. In Crossing Bridges over Troubled Waters, one concept that stood out in my mind was to accept the things I could not change and change those things that I could. I pray that this book will inspire each reader to a higher level of greater faith and knowing anything is possible with God.

Off the coast of Cape Cod lies a small windswept island called Penikese. Alone on the island is a school for juvenile delinquents, the Penikese Island School, where Daniel Robb lived and worked for three years as a teacher. By turns harsh, desolate, and starkly beautiful, the island offers its temporary residents respite from lives filled with abuse, violence, and chaos. But as Robb discovers, peace, solitude, and a structured lifestyle can go only so far toward healing the anger and hurt he finds not only in his students but within himself. Lyrical and heartfelt, Crossing the Water is the memoir of his first eighteen months on Penikese, and a poignant meditation on the many ways that young men can become lost.

A history of the countries bordering the Black Sea told through the stories of the people who live there. Fringing the Black Sea is a diverse array of countries, some centuries old and others emerging only after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Jens Mühling travels through this region, telling the stories of the people he meets along the way in order to paint a picture of the mix of cultures found here and to understand the present against a history stretching back to the arrival of Ancient Greek settlers and beyond. A fluent Russian speaker with a knack for gaining the trust of those he meets, Mühling brings together a cast of characters as diverse as the stories he hears, all of whom are willing to tell him their complex, contradictory, and often fantastical tales full of grief and legend. He meets descendants of the so-called Pontic Greeks, whom Stalin deported to Central Asia and who have now returned; Circassians who fled to Syria a century ago and whose great-great-grandchildren have returned to Abkhazia; and members of ethnic minorities like the Georgian Mingrelians or Bulgarian Muslims, expelled to Turkey in the summer of 1989. Mühling captures the region’s uneasy alliance of tradition and modernity and the diverse humanity of those who live there.

Concerned about your family and America? Presented as a fast-paced, personal account of a family living through modern warfare set in idyllic Central Texas, this fact-filled fiction is insightfully descriptive in regards to the principles of preparedness, survivalism, evasion and escape, warfare theory, the news and socio-political processes of the day, as well as the political solutions we need to enact NOW before this future conflict actually erupts. It is your constitutional and unalienable right to defend life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness - learn how. After the problematic elections of 2008, life in the U.S. changed for the worse, as the control grid that was incrementally installed over the last decades finally was completely in place. This journal from the future tells of the strife created by the Globalist ideal against free peoples, the survival evasion and escape from violence ridden urban centers, and the defense of freedom by the new U.S. Citizen Defense Forces. You will learn that all this trauma could have been avoided if you recognize propaganda, avoid being swayed by the Hegelian Dialectic of problem, reaction, solution and to stand up NOW in defense of truth and freedom. Preparedness was the key to ride out the storm as America was being ruined by design by enemies foreign and domestic. This book is a primer, general in regards to the worldwide sociopolitical phenomena we face, as well as detailed and specific in regards to important information you need to know. It was my hope in writing this book, that the reader would feel a sense of urgency and become more conversant about what hides beneath the surface, as well as to continue this research on their own.

Set in the second half of the nineteenth century, in the American and Canadian West and in Victorian England, The Last Crossing is a sweeping tale of interwoven lives and stories Charles and Addington Gaunt must find their brother Simon, who has gone missing in the wilds of the American West. Charles, a disillusioned artist, and Addington, a disgraced military captain, enlist the services of a guide to lead them on their journey across a difficult and unknown landscape. This is the enigmatic Jerry Potts, half Blackfoot, half Scottish, who suffers his own painful past. The party grows to include Caleb Ayto, a sycophantic American journalist, and Lucy Stoveall, a wise and beautiful woman who travels in the hope of avenging her sister’s vicious murder. Later, the group is joined by Custis Straw, a Civil War veteran searching for salvation, and Custis’s friend and protector Aloysius Dooley, a saloon-keeper. This unlikely posse becomes entangled in an unfolding drama that forces each person to come to terms with his own demons. The Last Crossing contains many haunting scenes – among them, a bear hunt at dawn, the meeting of a Métis caravan, the discovery of an Indian village decimated by smallpox, a sharpshooter’s devastating annihilation of his prey, a young boy’s last memory of his mother. Vanderhaeghe links the hallowed colleges of Oxford and the pleasure houses of London to the treacherous Montana plains; and the rough trading posts of the Canadian wilderness to the heart of Indian folklore. At the novel’s centre is an unusual and moving love story. The Last Crossing is Guy Vanderhaeghe’s most powerful novel to date. It is a novel of harshness and redemption, an epic masterpiece, rich with unforgettable characters and vividly described events, that solidifies his place as one of Canada’s premier storytellers.
