Told in the compelling voice of Rachel Moore, a housemaid in 17th century Puritan Boston and featuring that colony's two most powerful figures in Governor John Winthrop and his courageous opponent Anne Hutchinson, From Infamy to Hope is the story of the religious persecution of a servant girl made pregnant by rape. Convicted of fornication, she is sentenced to wear a black W for "whore" on her gown. Over the opposition of Hutchinson, the colony heads into war with the Pequot Indians. Rachel masquerades as a boy soldier, hoping to recover her baby who was sold to the Pequots by her alcoholic father to satisfy a debt. She is at the war's final battle when the colonial army burns down the Pequot's fortified village in Mystic, Connecticut. Will she find her baby among the ashes? Although Hutchinson was ultimately excommunicated and banished, a statue in her honor now stands before the State House in Boston, and a parkway bears her name in New York near where she died in another Indian war. Her descendants include F. D. R., the Bushes, as well as Mitt Romney. The present day Pequots now run Foxwood Casino near the site of the massacre in Connecticut.

French Astronaut Andre Dubois was nearly blasted out of the sky in a Russian plot to destroy the International Space Station. Recovered from his injuries, he was restless after months of recuperation in Israel. Upon his return to France, a person or persons unknown kidnap him. Could his kidnapping have a connection to the mysterious suicide of his friend and mentor, Monsignor Gauthier? Why did the priest kill himself on French television? What is the interest of the Vatican in the astronaut? Has Israel entered into a secret pact with Russia? Or have Russia and the Catholic Church combined to ruin Israel? What is the connection between the priest, the astronaut, and the bombing of the Iraqi nuclear reactor at Osirak in 1981? How are Iran and Pakistan involved in the plot against Israel? How are e-mails from the International Space Station used for and against the Jewish state? When Israeli secret agent Shimon Levi becomes involved, he first must escort Michelle, the beautiful ex-fiancee of the astronaut, to Paris to aid in finding the missing man. The vivacious young archeologist and the older agent notice one another in the way that men and women have noticed one another from the beginning of time.

Humber Cars date back to 1899, when Thomas Humber produced his Humber Phaeton model. The company went on to manufacture various quality motor vehicles, but financial difficulties during the 1920s led to it being bought out in 1928. The company became part of the Rootes Group, which would also include Hillman, Sunbeam, Singer, Commer and Karrier. The Rootes brothers were keen to promote the Humber marque as a prestige brand to place it alongside Rover and Jaguar. This book takes up the story of Humber cars at the end of Second World War, looking at the Hawk, Super Snipe and Sceptre, as well as the marque’s association with royalty and government. The marque’s eventual demise came in 1976, and Stephen Lewis utilises an array of fascinating rare and previously unpublished images to tell the full story of Humber’s post-war era.

DEMENTIA ... HOW CAN IT BE A LOVE STORY? Because the other morning as we were getting ready for the day, Carol said, in the plaintive tones she sometimes uses in articulating this word, "Steve," uttered with a look on her face that indicated something was bothering her, or perhaps scaring her. As I was standing right next to her bed, I took her hand, and said, "I am right here, Steve is right here," and gave her hand a little squeeze for emphasis." Thank God," she replied, articulating those two words quite clearly. And that is how the love between dementia sufferer and dementia caregiver sustained them both as this disease did its terrible work ... how they both somehow strengthened each other... how in recording in journal form the jarring juxtaposition of the course of the disease and the necessary continuation of day to day life as best it could be managed ... how this book tells a love story like no other.

"In Murder Undone, master craftsman and storyteller Stephen Lewis guides the reader through a richly woven tapestry of time, place, and character. This historical narrative set in the early 20th century transports the reader from northwest lower Michigan through the halls of power in Lansing, the prison yard in Jackson, LaSalle Street law offices, lumber camps, and Michigan's copper country-then torn by labor unrest. It is a superb sequel to Lewis's earlier novel, Murder on Old Mission. -Aaron Stander, bestselling author of the Ray Elkins Thriller Series

"I have spent the last four years watching people die." With these wrenching words, diplomat and humanitarian Stephen Lewis opens his 2005 CBC Massey Lectures. Lewis's determination to bear witness to the desperate plight of so many in Africa and elsewhere is balanced by his unique, personal, and often searing insider's perspective on our ongoing failure to help. Lewis recounts how, in 2000, the United Nations Millennium Summit in New York introduced eight Millennium Development Goals, which focused on fundamental issues such as education, health, and cutting poverty in half by 2015. In audacious prose, alive with anecdotes ranging from maddening to hilarious to heartbreaking, Lewis shows why and how the international community is falling desperately short of these goals. This edition includes an afterword by Lewis, covering events after the lectures were delivered in fall 2005.
