Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. All of us sometimes feel as if we're spinning our wheels without going anywhere, that life is a constant struggle, and that our only objective is to avoid falling over and knocking down everyone in our path. Faced with these issues, it's easy to live in fear and exhaustion. But it takes only the presence of God to give us peace, take away fear, and cause us to do what is right. He truly is our only audience. In Audience of One, author Trisha Dahlheimer shares the story of her journey of faith with candor and vulnerability. She recounts her struggles and misconceptions regarding who she thought Jesus was and what she believed a relationship with Him should look like.

Through her story, she hopes others carefully evaluate the voices they listen to in their lives and realize that God is the one who is listening to and delighted by your life. This biblical study and personal narrative offers one woman's testimony, recalling her walk of faith as she discovered that God is the only audience in her life that matters.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Free Papers: poems. In this poem sequence Eliza, the enslaved, speaks to the poet Mary Moore Easter who answers her in the voices of her own ancestors, grandmothers and great-grandmothers, captives of the slave period.

Paperback. Condizione: Good. This work, through an analysis of colonial Virginia, examines a major American paradox, namely the marriage of slavery and freedom.

Paperback. Condizione: Good. A detailed account of the extraordinary life of Austin Steward, a black man who lived in the early nineteenth century as both a slave and then later a free man. Originally published in 1861, Austin Steward's memoir has long been a staple source of first-hand evidence about activism against slavery and racism by freed blacks. Long out of print, the narrative is now available with additional biographical information and a critical introduction by historian Graham Hodges. The introduction affords an in-depth discussion of Steward's career - rising from enslavement to success as a self-made businessman in upstate New York and as leader of the ill-fated Wilberforce Colony in Ontario, Canada. Hodges also expands upon previous recognition of Steward's sizable role in free black activism in the antebellum northern states. Replete with images from Steward's life, this new edition of his classic narrative is stocked with details about the author's relationships with antislavery activists Frederick Douglass, William Wells Brown, Nathaniel Paul, and Gerrit Smith. The book offers insight into the creation of African American community life in upstate New York and into the doomed black utopia of Wilberforce.…

Hardback. Condizione: Good. After the 1969 season, the St. Louis Cardinals traded their star center fielder, Curt Flood, to the Philadelphia Phillies, setting off a chain of events that would change professional sports forever. At the time there were no free agents, no no-trade clauses. When a player was traded, he had to report to his new team or retire. Unwilling to leave St. Louis and influenced by the civil rights movement, Flood chose to sue Major League Baseball for his freedom. His case reached the Supreme Court, where Flood ultimately lost. But by challenging the system, he created an atmosphere in which, just three years later, free agency became a reality. Flood's decision cost him his career, but as this dramatic chronicle makes clear, his influence on sports history puts him in a league with Jackie Robinson and Muhammad Ali.…
