Dear Joseph is a book about redemption and learning how to forgive yourself and others. At a very young age Joseph is separated from his family and endures hatred and cruelty in an orphanage in the 1930s. His only connection to them is through a collection of letters he receives throughout his life, in which he learns of their adversities and struggles to survive. Later he receives a personal letter written from the Creator that explains how everyones life is importantnothing is truly lost or thrown away. As an old man Joseph is absorbed in selfishness and bitterness. Through out-of-body experiences, he discovers valuable lessons that will restore his soul and give new purpose in life. This book is about how caregivers come into our lives at the most tragic times to redeem and restore us, even when we find nothing good in ourselves. It is for everyone who is called to be a caregiver and a life motivator. Like Joseph you must answer the call.

This is the story of Joseph's, as well as his family's, journey in the world of the disabled, a world plagued by discrimination, suffering, isolation, and cruelty. It is also a story of the love, determination, bravery, and kindness extended to Joseph by the people who were willing to see beyond his disabilities and allowed themselves to be entranced by his beautiful smile, his contagious laugh, his physical beauty, and his amazing strength of spirit. He was a valiant warrior who exceeded the low expectations set for him, constantly encouraged by parents who loved him without conditions and believed in his ability to soar above those expectations given him by a world that failed to consider his amazing strength of spirit. In the process, he taught his parents many things that they never imagined would be a part of their journey in this life. He taught them to be brave. He taught them to be strong. He taught them that the strength of the human spirit is something that should never be underestimated. He taught them by example. Sometimes the disabled achieve things considered to be great by the world's standards, and sometimes they achieve things that are still great, just not on the world stage. The journey of my son, Joseph, was the latter. He fought the smaller battles that might eventually lead to winning the war. His was that proverbial "one voice singing in the darkness." My husband and I listened to his "voice." He made us better people by having known and "listened" to him. It is now up to us to continue to spread his message until the whole world has heard it. The disabled, just by being themselves, have the ability when given the opportunity to enable people to see their bravery, their strength of spirit, and the amazing grace with which they face their disabilities to effect a change in the hearts and minds of people, ultimately making the world a better place one person at a time. Ultimately, isn't that the reason that we all come to this earth, to become better people and leave the world a better place than we found it? Check out our website! Click Here!

In Vietnam's jungle war, only one group of men was feared more than death itself—the Marine Scout Snipers. . . . The U.S. Marine Scout Snipers were among the most highly trained soldiers in Vietnam. With their unparalleled skill, freedom of movement, and deadly accurate long-range Remington 700 bolt rifles, the Scout Snipers were sought after by every Marine unit—and so feared by the enemy that the VC bounty on the Scout Snipers was higher than on any other elite American unit. Joseph Ward's letters home reveal a side of war seldom seen. Whether under nightly mortar attack in An Hoa, with a Marine company in the bullet-scarred jungle, on secret missions to Laos, or on dangerous two-man hunter-kills, Ward lived the war in a way few men did. And he fought the enemy as few men did—up close and personal.

TRYING TO PROVE that a historical figure was not Jack The Ripper was the beginning of 15 years of research. At each turn, whether it be motive, opportunity, psychological profile, etc., I could not remove him from suspicion. What I found only kept pointing more and more toward he could have done it. It was painful not be able to cross him off my list. As we have learned mass-murderers come in various shapes and sizes. Theodore Robert Bundy by all appearances was a well groomed, well-mannered model of young manhood and yet underneath that facade lurked the cold heart of a killing machine. My suspect does not fit that mold on the outside but was thought to possess a spiritual soul and kind heart. Could he have also hidden a dark side? A dark and hideous side that could also patiently wait? Wait to grow strong and lash out at the progenitors of his deep and repressed hatred? Who of us can be sure we can spot a true monster?

A sequel to A Portrait in Letters: Correspondence to and about Joseph Conrad (Rodopi, 1995), this volume collects and annotates letters to Joseph Conrad by his family, friends, admirers, and publishers. An indispensable companion to the writer's own letters, it restores the quality of exchange, interaction, and debate that belongs to a major correspondence. It also leads to a fuller, more rounded picture of Conrad in his personal and professional dealings: both of the mutualities and rituals that underpinned his close friendships and of the terms underlying his mutual disagreements with others. Familiar names are here – Arnold Bennett, John Galsworthy, Edward Garnett, Ford Madox Ford, Bertrand Russell, and H. G. Wells – although in largely unfamiliar form, through unpublished or inaccessible materials. Another notable feature of the volume is the newly recovered correspondence relating to the implementation, by Henry Newbolt and William Rothenstein, of the Royal Bounty Fund grant awarded during one of Conrad's most severe financial crises (1904–06). An essential resource for the scholar, this vivid collection can also be read with pleasure by the general reader for the light it throws on Conrad the man and writer and the rich context in which he moved.

"Few American musicians have touched more people in more ways than has Robert Shaw. A minister's son whose early preparation and temperament seemed to destine him for the pulpit, Shaw instead turned his faith and eloquence to the service of music. From his days as a youthful member of the Fred Waring Glee Club, he went on to achieve fame as conductor of the Robert Shaw Chorale. Today he is the musical director of the Atlanta Symphony. Joseph Mussulman deftly places Shaw and his career against the backdrop of developments in American musical history. He documents the renaissance of the choral tradition, the flowering of the community orchestra, the rise of the recording industry, the role of live radio broadcasts, and the widening recognition of twentieth-century American composers--whose music Shaw has always courageously championed. Mussulman also describes the problems involved in developing new avenues of artistic patronage, and the delights and difficulties of touring. Part III, 'A phoenix in Atlanta,' has a dual focus: it examines the south's reentry into the mainstream of American musical life and reports on Shaw's often stormy tenure in Atlanta. But what emerges most powerfully from this biography is the character of Shaw himself. In his capacity as director of numerous ensembles, Shaw has addressed his musicians--many of them part-time non-professionals--in hortative letters that open with the salutation 'Dear people.' These messages not only express his deeply held beliefs about the spiritual values of great music but also reveal his warmth, wit, and irrepressible humor. Dear People ... Robert Shaw chronicles the career of a remarkable man and a gifted musician, whose foremost conviction is that 'to be an artist is not the privilege of a few but the necessity of us all.'"--Dust jacket.
