Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The fascinating history of the Pony Express unfolds in this historical novel for young readers aged 8 to 14. The Pony Express operated only 19 months from April 3, 1860 to October 24, 1861, but it captured America's thirst for adventure, and it fulfilled an important communication link between the new State of California and the rest of the Country during the unsettled period before the Civil War. Remarkably, most riders were teenagers. The Pony Express relied on the ability and endurance of small riders weighing less than 125 pounds. Despite their young ages, the brave and dedicated mail riders faced danger from wild animals, hostile Indians, and severe weather. Jake Hooter was one of these brave youngsters. Based upon true stories told by riders and horsemen employed by the Pony Express, Jake encounters Indians, wolves, snakes, and hardship. He endures searing heat, bone chilling cold, and a raging blizzard during his rides to deliver the mail. As a result of a crippling injury to his father, Jake is forced to leave his family's horse ranch in order to earn money to sustain it. He develops from a homesick boy to a dedicated and responsible young Pony Express carrier. Although the Pony Express operated for a short time, it was the period around the election of Abraham Lincoln and the terrible turmoil among the States regarding slavery. Rapid communication between Washington and California was considered vital. The news of President Lincoln's election was carried across the plains in record time, and the thrilling account of Jake's ride is an historical highlight in the story. Children who love horses will enjoy the major role they play in the tale. Jake develops a close relationship with a special pony that saves him on more than one occasion. Enhanced with 31 story illustrations and filled with action based on true events, this historical novel for children from 8 to 14 provides character development, action, and adventure.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. So many Christians wonder if they are living up to the high calling of Christ in our lost and dying world.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. NATIONAL BESTSELLER . A book in the best tradition of popular history-the untold story of Ireland's role in maintaining Western culture while the Dark Ages settled on Europe. . The perfect St. Patrick's Day gift! Every year millions of Americans celebrate St. Patrick's Day, but they may not be aware of how great an influence St. Patrick was on the subsequent history of civilization. Not only did he bring Christianity to Ireland, he instilled a sense of literacy and learning that would create the conditions that allowed Ireland to become "the isle of saints and scholars"-and thus preserve Western culture while Europe was being overrun by barbarians. In this entertaining and compelling narrative, Thomas Cahill tells the story of how Europe evolved from the classical age of Rome to the medieval era. Without Ireland, the transition could not have taken place. Not only did Irish monks and scribes maintain the very record of Western civilization -- copying manuscripts of Greek and Latin writers, both pagan and Christian, while libraries and learning on the continent were forever lost-they brought their uniquely Irish world-view to the task. As Cahill delightfully illustrates, so much of the liveliness we associate with medieval culture has its roots in Ireland. When the seeds of culture were replanted on the European continent, it was from Ireland that they were germinated. In the tradition of Barbara Tuchman's A Distant Mirror, How The Irish Saved Civilization reconstructs an era that few know about but which is central to understanding our past and our cultural heritage. But it conveys its knowledge with a winking wit that aptly captures the sensibility of the unsung Irish who relaunched civilization. …

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The question of what happens to us after we die is on the minds of many? Can you prove to them that there is a God? What about evolution? Can the Bible be proven true? This book, which is inspired by conversations with lost people, is written specifically to those who have objections or are seeking answers for eternity, and guiding them to truth. Why have so many atheists, agnostics, Muslims, Catholics, prisoners, and soldiers become born again after reading One Heartbeat Away? As best-selling author Mark Cahill suggests, it's because once you know the truth about the Bible, creation vs. evolution, heaven and hell, sin, and the cross, there is only one logical decision to make. The truth does set you free Get this book into the hands of family, friends, and strangers, and watch the Holy Spirit work wonders in their lives. It also appeals to Christians who want answers to the questions they get when witnessing. One Heartbeat Away promises to be as compelling as Mark Cahill's first book One Thing You Can't Do in Heaven. Both books have tremendous value in skillfully communicating the evidence for biblical truth and compelling the lost to come to Jesus Christ for salvation.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Tim Cahill reports on the road trip to end all road trips: a journey that took him from Tierra del Fuego to Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, in a record-breaking twenty three and a half days.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. From the New York Times bestselling author of How the Irish Saved Civilization comes the absorbing, heartbreaking tale of the hard life and tragic death of Dominique Green--wrongly accused, then executed in Huntsville, Texas--and shines a light on our racist and deeply flawed criminal justice system. Green, an extraordinary young man from the urban ghettos of Houston, was utterly failed by every echelon of society--the Catholic Church, numerous U.S. courts of law, and even his own mother.  But from the depths of despair on Death Row, he transcended his earthly sufferings and achieved enlightenment and peace, inciting an international movement against the death penalty and inspiring his personal hero, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, to plead publicly for mercy.   A Saint on Death Row is an unforgettable, sobering, and deeply spiritual account that illuminates the moral imperatives too often ignored in the headlong quest for judgment.…
