  • Richard Bach made a promise, fifty years before, to return to the frightened child he used to be and teach him everything he had learned from living.  His promise went unfulfilled until one day, hovering between earth and sky, Richard encounters Dickie Bach, age nine - irrepressible challenger of every notion Richard embraces...In this spiritual adventure, Richard and Dickie probe the timeless questions both need answered if either is to be whole: Why does growing spiritually mean never growing up? Can we peacefully coexist with the consequences of our choices? Why is it that only by running from safety can we make our wildest dreams take flight?
  • Fifteen years on the city streets -and  Wezzo survived. Will is the story of Wezzo and Geoff, two school friends with the world at their feet, whose choices lead them down vastly different paths. Later, their worlds collide and once again they become uniquely linked. All of us make choices. But what happens when our choices plunge us into despair? What can we do? Who do we turn to? Wezzo's choices leave him homeless on the city streets of Newcastle, Australia, while Geoff's choices trap him in a maze of diabolical white-collar corruption. Yet they'd both started out full of hopes and dreams. Will is about triumph in the midst of tragedy, love lost, purpose found; the strongest of families torn apart then re-created in the most unlikely place. In a world hobbled with epidemic homelessness, Will portrays 'streeties'   as gifted individuals who deserve another chance, rather than as shameful failures. Will contrasts the victims and the victors, the hopeless and the hopeful, a challenge not only to think about destiny - but to resolve it. And the ending...?  It's definitely a surprise...

  • From his predictions about life and death in the French court of Catherine de' Medici to his uncannily suggestive preconceptions of World War II, Michel de Nostradamus has aroused continual fascination-and commercialization-in the West. Today, many search his elliptical "centuries"- or collected verses-for new truths about 9/11 and End Times, while supermarket tabloids routinely falsify and exploit his pronouncements. What is the difference between prophecy and prediction, and how has it led to a misuse of the ideas of Nostradamus, as well as those of other post-biblical prognosticators? What is the nature of the oracular tradition in the West-stretching back to the oracle at Delphi-and how can Nostradamus be understood from this perspective? Smoley presents a fresh, scholarly and literal translation of Nostradamus's Middle French, together with a detailed commentary on Nostradamus's key quatrains, with a sharp eye toward the political and social events of Nostradamus' era, allowing readers to make their own determination as to the passages' historical references and accuracy

  • The landscape of Wiltshire is an ancient one. The burial mounds of kings and chieftains overlook the land; trackways that are millennia old wind through lonely places; the defensive ditches  of forts can be seen on the brows of many hills.  Overshadowing all are the ancient monuments of Avebury and Stonehenge and the awe-inspiring man-made  mound of Silbury Hill.  It's no wonder that those who succeeded the vanished races who built this landscape came to regard these works with a superstitious reverence. Surely, such structures could only have been built by giants or wizards; the magnificent burial mounds must cover the earthly bodies of legendary beings - or do they hide the entrance to the underworld? And only the Devil could have been capable of carrying such large, heavy stones. This volume covers the folklore of round barrows, long barrows, barrow hills, earthworks, standing stones and henges.   Illustrated with maps and black and white photographs.
