Cultural Writing. Memoir. ECOLOGY OF BEING is a philosophical memoir by Peter White. ECOLOGY OF BEING offers new approaches to the fundamental human task of finding one's way in the world. It is a valuable guide for locating true measures of meaning for oneself and for sharing life's real abundance with others. "ECOLOGY OF BEING describes how human nature, purpose and destiny relate to the quality of existence. It explains not what to do but how to be. It offers a context for understanding the immense implications of being"--from the Preface. "Peter White's ECOLOGY OF BEING is beautifully, lyrically written, with a depth of insight, a humility, and a wisdom that are moving. More important, this book is timely, a powerful call to understand the self-and the responsibilities of love-in new and transforming ways. A must read for anyone who cares about our future as individuals and as a society"-- David Lynn.

Growing Orchids at Home

This is a great American novel. However, the story of Hector's Juice starts long before America was a country. In fact it starts long before any history was written about anything. It starts at the very beginning of time and fast forwards to evolution and the beginnings of mankind. But evolution also has a spiritual side and that's where Spencer the very first guardian angel comes in. He will take you from the beginnings of man in the Great Rift Valley of Africa to the lime colored gas chamber of San Quentin State Penitentiary in California. From the beginnings of surfing (not in Hawaii) to the gunfight at the OK Corral this is a great American novel that is neither restricted to time or space.

Hector's Juice

Benjamin Tompson

The first complete and reliable edition of a poet ranked among the best in 17th-century New England, this book presents Benjamin Tompson (1642-1714) as a proud, sensitive, and humorous writer who applauded leadership and heroism while admonishing the foolish, the worldly, and the dissident. A Harvard graduate and schoolmaster (Cotton Mather was his pupil) Benjamin Tompson celebrate the "New Canaan" in occasional, elegiac, and satirical poems which represent, to one critic, a transition between "colonial baroque and colonial neoclassic art." New-Englands Crisis, describing the 1675-76 war against the Algonquins (in which the poet did first-aid duty), is a unique combination of classical epic and almost journalistic realism. It is also a witty satire, deflating the pretensions of the new generation of Puritan and Indian leaders. "The Grammarians Funeral," though packed with puns and word games, does not deprecate linguistic precision. In general, this colonial bard looked backward to lost traditions and forward to unrealized potentials. Approved by the Center for Scholarly Editions, Professor White's edition presents thirty poems, three letters, and a Latin oration, all annotated with historical and literary information.

"The original Write it Right monograph outlined the processes of producing the news in great detail. However in subsequent years news production processes have changed dramatically and much of this information has been omitted in this publication."--P. 2.
