Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - It is 1832 as the USS Hayes sails the Indian Ocean, guided by its lord and master, Captain Gellins. Meantime a shipmate is wrongly accused of stealing and faces the fatal lash. Likewise, he is just one of many who have been accused of false charges: others who have already met their end at the gratings; all from the lies supplied to the captain by shipmate Penderghast. Who can tell what will happen if certain other shipmates take the law into their own hands to try and right this injustice And if the plot succeeds, what may follow The Voyage: Part I is the tale of a young sailor's journey to the truth as he becomes embroiled in events beyond his control and through an act of sacrifice ironically unleashes an ancient curse.…

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - This is my personal work and tool I use to help support me with my tasks and duties as a registered veterinary technician (RVT). Anyone who has worked directly with me knows about my pocket brain. I have shared and exchanged information in this small book to aid myself in patient care as well as support others who may have struggled and/or needed similar information to excel in their daily duties. The original book was created in 1999 but was lost. I restarted this book in 2006 as I felt the absence of this vital tool while on the floor in the clinical setting. Many have suggested that I turn it into a book so that more can benefit from it. It is a combination of things I have learned, researched, looked up, and experienced in my position as an RVT. I see this growing and adjusting with our role as veterinary technicians and assistants as a result of ongoing advances in care for our furry friends. This is just the start of volumes to come.…

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - 'Walking the Camino was a 'bucket list' item for me. It stretched me physically and spiritually. I came home realizing that life is like the Camino-a way that Christ asks me to walk with all its ups and downs, joys and trials and I am called to persevere with Him to the end! Some highlights - the serenity of the countryside, the quaint villages and churches, and pilgrims from all over the world.' +Stephanie Rubeling, mother and pilgrim.…

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - The Hand of Allah is a political thriller/ mystery set in 12th Century Cordoba. It features two of the most brilliant men in history: who were contemporaries: Abu Walid ibn Rushd (Averroes) and Maimonides. Against a conspiracy that threatens to upturn their world and the character of Islam in Spain, these men face a test where the future of Spain is in the balance.'You must accept the truth from whatever source it comes,' Moses Maimonides issued this challenge in his 'Guide for the Perplexed,' a work that sought to reconcile Aristotelian methods with Jewish theology. I traveled to Cordoba a few years back to prepare and research this book. Cordoba struck me then as a fascinating city with magnificent history and, often displayed, indescribable beauty, even in the most unexpected of places. In its history, beauty, flowers, achievements and even in its darker history, the city exudes truth for anyone who will look. For example, the Great Mosque is an architectural masterpiece that has few equals in the world, but it has been conquered and reconquered in bloody brutal struggles all in the name of a God, which is essentially and paradoxically the same deity. As I stood before the statues of Averroes and Maimonides in that city, I envisioned this historical novel as a source of truth, not literally (there is much in it that is historical) but there is, a great deal of, my imagination. However, some of the most truthful books that I've ever read, Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov or Pasternak's Doctor Zhivago are examples of fiction that leads to universal truth. I wouldn't dare offer my modest little tale to that august company, except that it does seek to portray a greater truth with entertaining fiction-to the extent that my poor abilities can convey it.…
