| BLACK MANS GRAVE : Letters From Sierra Leone [Gary Stewart & John Amman] Sierra Leone was ripe for revolution in 1991; the Revolutionary United Front just didn't know how to pull if off. "Black Man's Grave" tells the story of the tragic "revolution" through the eyes of those who struggled to survive in the small northern village of Fadugu. Based on years of correspondence and the authors' research and experiences in Sierra Leone, "Black Man's Grave" describes a country run by a greedy political elite who hijacked a fledgling democracy, plundered its wealth of diamonds and turned most of its people into desperate paupers. REVIEW: "Stewart and Ammans Black Man's Grave takes on a much-neglected aspect of the war, the experience of men who avoided recruitment into either government or rebel forces, yet who struggled to maintain themselves and their families through the long years of disruption.... When war ravaged the northern town of Fadugu, causing it to be abandoned and resettled multiple times over the years, many inhabitants reached out through letters to American and European friends, as people all over the region were doing. Stewart and Amman have skilfully integrated excerpts from letters they received with an historical narrative of the war drawn from published sources. The result is an account of the conflict from the point of view of ordinary heroes; teachers who keep showing up for work after years with no paycheck, traders who risk their lives and livelihoods trying to keep small towns supplied with necessities, and local chiefs who, after years of doing what the central government tells them, finally find the courage to stand up to power." -- African Studies Review, April 2008 { 224pp, 140x215mm, January 2007; PB, £9.99, 0979080827:9780979080821 , AtlasBooks (Cold Run Books) } |

Then, at about 1:30 a.m., the doctor told me that it would be about six more hours, as I was only five centimetres dilated. At that point I was going crazy, howling like an animal and screaming, 'Get it out of me, get it out!' The doctor confirmed that I was asking for a C-section and took my husband out of the room, saying, "Your wife is not in her right mind, so you have to sign the consent forms if you want us to perform the C-section". Being the good husband that he is, he signed the forms, and, by 2:30 AM, we had our first bouncing baby boy!" { 136pp, 300x300mm, February 2008; HB, £83.50, 1424315662:9781424315666 , AtlasBooks (Fletcher Sr) } |

| REALITY, SPIRITUALITY & MODERN MAN [David Hawkins, M.D., Ph.D.] This is the seventh book in a progressive series based on the revelations of consciousness research. It describes in detail how to discern not only truth from falsehood but also the illusion of appearance from the actual core of inner reality. The text explains how to differentiate perception from essence and thereby enables the reader to resolve the ambiguities and classical riddles that have challenged mankind for centuries. While modern technologies have provided a plethora of new toys and conveniences, the basic problems of human existence remain. The human dilemma is in fact more confused than ever before, and the very foundations of Western civilisation have weakened under the onslaughts of rival factions and media barrage.

| WHAT MAKES TEHRAN TICK : Islamist Ideology & Hegemonic Interests [Raymond Tanter & Thomas Mcinerney] The Iranian regime epitomises a rogue state that engages in state-sponsored terrorism while simultaneously seeking weapons of mass destruction. Considerable commentary dismisses Iranian rhetoric as more bluster. What Makes Tehran Tick creatively explores the ideological sources of Tehran's hostility.

In the context of failing diplomacy and problematic military action against Iran, this book suggests an ingenious third option that seeks to empower the Iranian people for democratic change. Pursuit of the empowerment alternative could reinforce diplomacy while keeping the military option in abeyance. -- General Alexander M.

He posed as many different men, using disguises to help him through the tight spots.

None of them ever knew any of the many secrets of his past lives living against the law, that is, until now. { 203pp, 155x230mm, October 2008; HB, £16.99, 0980162203:9780980162202 , AtlasBooks (Butler) } |

Each wildly imagined activity is highlighted on the wall by Pete's flashlight beam as the daring pair quietly and carefully creep through the house. They persist, finally reaching the study and the moment of truth. Sam's parents, of course, are simply relaxing; Dad does the crossword, and Mum is reading. Disappointed, Sam and Petey trudge back up to bed. This romping, rhyming adventure will prove once and for all that kids aren't missing out on anything special after bedtime. Or are they? In the final wordless image, Mum and Dad are eating pink ice cream and cake at a private little party, perhaps celebrating that they have won the bedtime battle -- at least until tomorrow night. { 32pp, 250x250mm, October 2008; HB, £11.50, 0979974615:9780979974618 , IPG (Flashlight Press) } |
| STORY THAT BROUGHT ME HERE : To Alberta from Everywhere [Linda Goyette] Thousands of newcomers are pouring into Alberta from around the globe, bringing unexpected gifts. Many are writers and storytellers. What pulls them to Canada? What happens to them on the journey? What experiences have they deliberately left behind? What treasures do they bring? How do they describe their emerging sense of place and their creative aspirations in a new home? In this moving collection of stories and poems, writers from around the world share their thoughts on creating a life in Alberta. Expressed with beauty and clarity, and sometimes translated from the writer's native tongue, these very personal accounts of joy and sadness, regret and humour, homesickness and exuberance, describe the defining moments of a departure and an arrival.

| SEARCH FOR 11:11 : A Journey into the Spirit World [George Mathieu Barnard] Details George Barnard's association of decades with these valiant and trustworthy creatures. Its 260 pages relate to his discovering who they are, and the many ways in which a platoon of Midwayers and a lone mortal can make themselves useful for the benefit of many. These extraordinary planetary helpers -- sometimes known as the Midway creatures -- dwell in the realms midway between angel and human, and belong to a group just 1,111 in number. Their 11:11 time-prompts, known to many around the world, are the signals of their presence. They and their human helpmates quietly serve the planet behind the scenes. These interspecies teams have usually gone unrecorded in the annals of history -- until now. George Barnard is among the first to achieve visual recognition of these beings, and the only known living mortal to work with them for more than four decades. In this book, the first in a series, Barnard goes public for the first time with a compelling story of revelation, healing, and planetary redemption. { 243pp, 140x215mm, March 2005; PB, £9.99, 0957788967:9780957788961 , AtlasBooks (11.11 Publishers) } |
| WILL ROGERS, PERFORMER [Richard J Maturi & Mary Bickingham Maturi] While Will Rogers was definitely a man of his times, he remains to many a man for all times. His political and social commentary continue to be as relevant today as they were in the 1920s and 1930s. Many have forgotten, however, that Rogers was first and foremost a performer. Long before Rogers uttered his first memorable speech or penned his first famous phrase, he earned a handsome living as a vaudevillian and as a performer in the Ziegfeld Follies. He successfully made the transition to the movies, debuting in the silent film Laughing Bill Hyde in 1918. He followed his dozens of silent movies with 21 'squawkies', as he liked to call them. By 1934 he was voted the top box office draw in America, out-polling such stars as Shirley Temple. This heavily illustrated work provides a detailed look at all aspects of Will Rogers performing career, with particular emphasis on his movie work. A complete filmography is included. { 275pp, 180x260mm, January 1999; HB, £25.99, 0786406372:9780786406371 , 21st Century Publishers } |
| TRIPLE CROWN WINNER : The Earl Sande Saga -- Tragedy to Triumph [Richard J Maturi] This book tells the story of a skinny, too tall, young child who learned his craft on the leaky-roof circuit and rose to the top ranks of American Jockeys.

While other jockeys resorted to the whip, Sande used it sparingly, referring to coax supreme efforts from his mounts with gentle hand riding and singing in their ears. { 352pp, 155x230mm, December 2005; HB, £19.99, 0960729852:9780960729852 , 21st Century Publishers } |
| KIPLING'S ERROR III : They Were Good Americans -- The Story of the B-17 Flying Fortress [Brooks Mitchell PhD] On the morning of 28 July 1943, on a raid to Oschersleben, Germany, Kipling's Error III was ambushed through thick cloud cover by as many as 200 German fighters and witnessed another group's lead ship being hit in the bomb bay while carrying incendiary bombs that morning. It is mentioned that the explosion was so terrific that it caused the downing of the other two wing ships as well. These accounts and others are related here in the documented diaries of five crew members in vivid detail. { 229pp, 215x280mm, July 2006; HB, £19.99, 0960729860:9780960729869 , 21st Century Publishers } |

| BEIJING 360 [Tamas D Varga & Zemin Yu] The author would like with this photoalbum to acquiant visitors with the capital of China and reacquaint the citizens who already know the city well with some famous sites. Since not all of them have the making of a good scene for panoramic photograph, his album does not follow the common and perhaps expected themes of similar endeavours. That's why there are some lesser known details and atmosphere in the book, on the other hand this makes it even more exciting and interesting. Each panoramic photo has an explanatory text that provides new knowledges about sites, events or habits. { 160pp, 75x125mm, May 2008; HB, £23.99, 9638733713:9789638733719 , AtlasBooks (360 Art Ltd) } |
| ABSOLUTE INFINITY [Nicolas Valenzuela] Imagine your life is so lonely, a computer is your only friend. Imagine your life is so miserable, the only thing you get out of bed for in the morning is the possibility of something considered impossible and laughable by the world. Combine that with a face so horribly disfigured from congenital birth defects, it makes most people stare, point and whisper. Add an adoptive mother who hates you and wants you gone, and non-biological siblings filled with selfish indifference. Then include abandonment by the only person who wanted to adopt you in the first place, your father. Ridiculed and gawked at by the world, rejected by everyone for anything more than casual acquaintance, treated to kindness only out of charitable pity. Then throw in hallucinations that lead you to believe you may have actually gone insane. If these were the circumstances of your existence, what would you do? Come and follow Diego, as he discovers the secret to the miraculous thing most human beings take for granted, then uses it to ease his anguished solitude. Meet Gabe, whose easy, hedonistic life is the complete opposite of Diego’s in every way. Introduce yourself to Oz, the no-nonsense atheist who becomes obsessed by a painful moment in his young life. Then find out why the three of them together are necessary to accomplish the greatest of goals. What does Absolute Infinity have to do with anything that might effect your life some day? If you live long enough into the current century, you will have the answer. { 566pp, 120x175mm, September 2004; PB, £6.99, 0975961500:9780975961506 , AtlasBooks (7162 Books) } |

| FOREST & TREES : The Bible as a Whole [H Doyle Smith] When people talk about contradictions and inconsistencies in the Bible, they fail to realise that there really is a consistent theme and an orderly outline to the Bible as a whole.

That theme and outline are clear, but demand more, and less, than people expect. This book describes that outline and theme. { 67pp, 155x230mm, April 2005; PB, £8.99, 0964789191:9780964789197 , AtlasBooks (Aaron Denburn Publishing) } |

| FAITH, FAVOR & FINANCE [Karen N Tobias] Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. -- Matthew 24:45-46 When it comes to the subject of money, it doesn't matter if God gives a little or a lot. This book bets the question of the reader, 'Will you be responsible, reliable, and loyal?' God's call is not to be successful, but to be faithful. Readers will find that being faithful involves being obedient to God despite what they see and that it is easy to trust God when they can physically see what's going to happen, but takes a lot more trust when they don't see the light at the end of the tunnel and when people are ridiculing them. 'Faith, Favor and Finance' suggests that despite these troubles, the reader must keep moving forward based on God's Word because though they may not always understand the why behind their instructions, God has said to stand on His promises, not His explanations. This book is for readers who need a little more faith, want God's favour and don't mind having more finance. { 108pp, 140x215mm, June 2006; PB, £7.50, 0970562217:9780970562210 , AtlasBooks (ABCs of Money Ministries) } |
