Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Theodore Jerome Cohen's first collection of unusual short stories met with such an unqualified success that he was persuaded to prepare a second set of equally enjoyable stories about the adventure we call life. This book continues his penchant for writing tales that mix truth and fiction in ways even the author's friends and family find difficult to untangle . . . tales about people with whom he's worked or simply known, people who, for one reason or another, struck him as having a story to tell and from whom he learned something that has stayed with him through the years. It's their stories he wants to share with you in this book. Here you'll find unusual stories about a violinist and his wife who escaped the death camp at Treblinka, about a man who, because of his impatience, interrupted a meeting involving President Roosevelt, Prime Minister Churchill, and General de Gaulle, and about a friend with a passion for beautiful women and fast cars who dared to live on the edge-stories vividly brought to life in this, the second collection of unusual short stories by Theodore Jerome Cohen.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Twelve-year-old Jose Maldonado used to dream of becoming a fine artist. But this son of a poor Mexican farmer now focuses on survival, not art. After Jose's mother died, his father left to work in the United States, leaving Jose on his own in Mexico. When it's time for father and son to reunite, things go terribly wrong. Jose's attempt to cross the border is harrowing, and his stay at a migrant worker camp turns into a nightmare, forcing him to flee for his life. Hiding out in a church seems a wise thing to do--until the blood dripping from his wounded shoulder lands on a statue of Christ. Now everyone thinks the statue itself is bleeding. Jose's accidental "miracle" kick-starts a media frenzy--and threatens the future of an entire town. Theodore Taylor's riveting story of faith and desperation inspired the September 2003 Showtime movie The Maldonado Miracle, directed by Salma Hayek.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. The reader is in for a very different and yes, special type of memoir in Ted Homa's new book. Not only are the intimate details and personal testimony of both reconversion and rebirth of both spiritual nature present in the author's clear friendly voice, but also a continual definitive undeniable statment is underscored allowing observers to think about what it true. God never forgets you, though you may forget Him. This quick flowing hard to put down read is an awakening. As the reader will agree it is well worth rereading-pondering situations in our lives that drive us away from faith and then acknowledging angels that walk among us, hopefully allowing a coming home to the Father. Teddy's story is so moving that one cannot help but be astonished at God's underpinning coincidences documented throughout the chronicle. Bouncing off each page are messages of inner soul speaking, searching and finally finding salvation. This private catharsis serves as a touching revelation and sometimes unbelievable account of the healing process, confirming God's intended plan for mankind. Standing Between the Gates of Heaven and the Precipice of Hell-a doctor's experience with the afterlife, provides a template of spiritual encouragement to all fortunate to read this personal journal.'
